Hi all,
I can upgrade from next week and have heard many good things about the Note 3, but everyone I know that has one, doesn't play music on it through headphones, so I was wondering on quality & how well it handles playlists, album artwork etc. Part of me wants to wait until the Note 4, but another part of me says the Note 3 will probably be cheaper.
I do currently use an ipod Touch 3rd Gen, but since that piece of sh!t aka itunes has started to refuse to copy over certain songs & resorting to the use of Media Monkey to copy over my tracks, I decided that my next Android phone would have to be able to handle music playback pretty well. Also as the tools at Apple have seen fit to make my ipod no longer compatible with Spotify, I have decided to have something that can do everything that I want it to, without the need for separate devices.
Any opinions for playing music on the Note series would be great.
Many thanks

I really can't recommend it enough, and I'm sure as well as sound quality, it's other features will make you a proud owner. I chose it over the S5 and don't regret it one bit.
Wow that does sound great, how is the battery life after 6hrs of streaming ?
This handset is sounding better by the minute
So going by what people are saying about music playback & battery life, the Note route does seems to be the route to go.
On what network did you find this issue & what area of the UK ?
Can't say I've had antenna issues. My S4 was better than my iPhone and my note 3 is better than those.
On every single network. I tested the phone in the south of the UK, including parts of London, Winchester, Southampton...
It's better than it ever was on my S3 or our S4. I can't complain about it, and Three has never let me down.
As for sound quality it's good. Better than the S4 and original galaxy note. Battery life is also good, I get through a whole day with ease, often getting around 1.5 days on a single charge. I have a spare battery that I carry around with me everyday for emergencies but I've only used it twice in 6 months.
