Following the success of the Galaxy Note 3, Samsung has launched the Galaxy Note 3 Neo in India.
At 40,900 Indian Rupees (approximately Php29,000), it is basically the cheaper variant of the Galaxy Note 3 (which retailed at Php36,990 during its launch). Some would still consider its price to be a bit steep, but think that inside it you have six cores that can work simultaneously mainly due to the use of Heterogeneous Multi-Processing or HMP. Feature-wise, it carries S Pen, Air Command, and Easy Clip, while having support for Multi Window and S Note.
