However, a fun alternative might be to buy a nexus 4 and dual boot Ubuntu which, as I understand, is currently doable. This should hold you over for a few months till the next onslaught of new phones comes out. Anyways, I'm thinking of trying it myself. Hopefully a working version of Sailfish for nexus is available soon...

The Note 3 is just huuuge, hard to be put into the pocket of a trouser, tried it again today
The Nexus 4 seems to have problems with battery life and camera from what I read. Something that rules out the Nexus Series is the lack of memory extension by e.g. sdcards.
