    by looking at design and weight, quite possible it is gonna be a flop show, however it would definitely trigger a new idea of integrating high end phones with high end camera features.

    Not sure if with NOTE 3, Samsung comes up with a feature of Note 2 and facility of a DSLR camera (as rumored). Or who knows Apple steals the idea, and comes up with something mind boggling (as they are the best whatever they do - doesn't matter they steal the idea or not.... 😁 )

    It would have made sense if they said it was a camera with the abilities to make phone calls rather than a phone with huge lens and huge body! 😁
