Comparison review
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has a general score of 81.2, which is a little bit better than the Samsung Galaxy S7's overall score of 79.5. Despite being the best we are comparing, we must note that it is also extremely older, a little bit thicker and just a bit heavier. The Galaxy Note 3 counts with just a little better performance than Samsung Galaxy S7, because although it has lesser RAM memory, and they both have 4 CPU cores, the Galaxy Note 3 also counts with an extra graphics processing unit.
Samsung Galaxy S7 features a slightly better screen than Galaxy Note 3, because although it has a little bit smaller display, it also counts with a higher 1440 x 2560 pixels resolution and a better screen pixel density. Samsung Galaxy Note 3 features a quite bigger storage to store more games and applications than Galaxy S7, because although it has a slot for an SD memory card that allows up to 64 GB against 200 GB, it also counts with 64 GB internal storage.
Galaxy S7 captures just a bit better photos and videos than Samsung Galaxy Note 3, because although it has a lower (4K) video resolution and a lower 12 MP resolution camera in the back, it also counts with a way bigger diafragm aperture for better low light photography and videos and a bigger back-facing camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors.
Galaxy Note 3 counts with just a bit better battery duration than Samsung Galaxy S7, because it has 3200mAh of battery capacity against 3000mAh.
Although Galaxy Note 3 is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Galaxy S7. If you are trying to save some money, you can buy the Galaxy S7, letting go a couple features and specs, but you will get the most with your savings.
