Does this product turn the desktop view on for the Note 3 when docked or is this only a charger?

Yes, it does turn on the desktop view. It shows weather time, calendar, and you can set an alarm. I bought it for my husband and he likes it very much. Hope this helps...

Yes...it actually turns on the "dream" feature on the GN3! It's awesome. Charging is simply an added plus. It's a great little dock for a fantastic phone!

No, it doesn't enable dock mode when used with the "Smart Charging Adapter."

I was waiting until my own Note 3 came in and I was in the office (where I leave the dock) to respond. It works, but not perfectly. The Note 3 has a USB3 charging/syncing port. This does work with the dock, but data transfer and charging are slower than using a USB3 cable. The additional connector pins in the USB3 port also make the Note 3 sit unevenly (non-centered) on the dock.

It has a place to plug into on the wand and on the docking station. Connect to your computer usb to charge and view. This works great! I am so glad I got it. It is very easy to use both the dock and the wand.

I have a Note 2 with a case on it and it fits/works great! My biggest concern on the Note 3 would be that it might be too big. All of the cables were included with the dock. It has worked flawlessly for me.

I have the one and this dock is perfect it has a plastic cover over the usb to take off so you dont have to take your case off your phone ..as far as being locked it just leaves the screen on while charging but doesn't affect battery . Just hit the button on top to turn screen off .

I've never tried to charge it on a dock, but my best guess: no. The hole for the charging plug is set back into the case so that a rubber cover can flip up and secure over it. I definitely would not be able to sit flush on a charging dock (unless the dock was designed to overcome this). But again, I've never tried it...just my best guess.

I have the Note 3 charging case also...but you have to get a Qi charging base (which is what you lay your phone on to charge). I bought a Samsung since I wanted to be sure it worked correctly with the Note 3, but I understand any Qi charging base will do the job. It works surprisingly well, I am impressed...such that I now think I'll be getting other Qi base pad for other areas around my house...another reason to get Samsung/Android over IOS stuff...

After Patuoxon replaced the desktop charger with the correct one for my galaxy s4, everything worked fine. It slides into the docking station with very little effort. Of course, you have to take whatever phone case you have on the phone or else it will not fit into the charger. As far as undocking your phone, common sense tells you not to just yank it out or else something might break. Im very pleased with this gadget.

I can charge while it's on the stand as long as it's on top of a book to prevent damage to the charging cord, it's to close to the desktop otherwise. I really like the stand, it's awesome for reading books and texting.

You'll probably need to take it out of it case to dock and charge on top but it has a USB slot on the back you can plug a charger in. We have two and that's how my daughter does it.

you place the device up side down to charge, With Phillips program DockStudio the image position changes and you can see the screen in the right way. be careful with the position of the switch because you must turn to the position that allow to see the screen.

No different camera layout and bottom is different as note 3 uses different power connection

Hi, the pad and receiver works fine with Note 3.Charging speed is about 20 %/hour. I have also spigen light armor case on my phone and that adds about 4millimeters thickness on back of the phone ,but that doesn't affect charging at all. Phone is about sama size asti the pad and you have To place the phone about 1 centimeter over bottom side of the pad so that pad and receiver are in perfect Line .top side of the phone blocks leds internet the charging pad but that isn't problem while Note have own led that shows state of the charging Cycle.

The Tablet can be charged while the cover is on, but it cannot be charged while it is being used as a stand, because it rests on the charger slot. Nevertheless I can charge it as a stand with the Samsung Universal Desktop Charging Dock for 10.1 inch Samsung Galaxy Note, with this cover still on, since it is Slim enough to fit in the dock.

I just got one of these docks myself, and found that Galaxy Note 3 in an Otterbox Commuter series case (their thinnest case) will not connect to the dock. Since the charging port cover on the case doesn't close properly anyway, and blocks docking, I cut that flap off, then filed out the charging opening in the outer shell slightly to accommodate the base of the USB3 connector, and the phone STILL will not dock with the case installed. It won't dock *reliably* even with just the silicone liner of the case in place. I just talked to Otterbox and they have no suggestions. The annoying thing is that it looks as though it WOULD work, if only the spring-loaded base of the dock had about another 2mm-3mm of travel. (Samsung, are you listening? ...Probably not.) It's extremely annoying having to choose between "Case that will protect my phone" and "Case that will still let me dock my phone". Can anyone perhaps offer any tips for cases known to fit and work for this dock? Perhaps we can at least take the guesswork out of which cases will work with the dock and which won't. I'll start: OtterBox cases WILL NOT work with this dock.
