Samsung also made good on the rumors that it would redesign the device's exterior. It still features a plastic backing, but its appearance has been altered to make it look like leather or some other kind of material. It even comes with stitching on the edges to give it a different feel. Like the Galaxy S4, the Note 3 comes with the metal along the edges instead of the rounded plastic look found on the Note 2 and Galaxy S3. It closely resembles the Galaxy S4 in the same way the Note 3 shares looks with its predecessor.
A new hands-on video shows off some of the new features found on the Note 3. It also can give readers a better look at the redesigned backing and edges. To view the video click HERE.
