The Note 4 is a handsome phone. After years of plastic blobs
Samsung has hit its design stride. We saw the potential of this new look in the Galaxy Alpha
But its guts just couldn't follow through. But the Note 4 can. It's a great and great-looking phone
The metal frame with a chamfered edge is a nice step up in quality for Samsung's devices
The Menu button is dead! Samsung replaced it with a recent apps button
No more fake stitching on the back
A removable battery and a Micro SD card
Display
Does it even need to be said? Samsung is building the best smartphone displays around. The Note 4's QHD Super AMOLED is bright
Vivid
And bold. I love it. The higher resolution doesn't seem to make a difference to me

Below-average display brightnes
Heavier and thicker than predecesso
Battery life could be better
Requires large pockets
Unreliable fingerprint scanner
The Note 4's single back-mounted speaker kind of sucks. It's loud
And has a clever little rib on its grill that keeps it from being muffled by a table
But it's sound quality is tinny and just all around bad. It's no way to listen to music
TouchWiz is b
Physical home buttons and styluses don't mix. Imparting force through a plastic stick into a clicky button is extremely awkward
Samsung chose branding over usability
The stylus feels like a toy. It's literally a hollow plastic tube

Camera issues
I had real problems with image blur on the new rear camera
Which is a shame considering how excited everyone was for optical image stabilization. Check out the camera section for examples
Not that fast
The Note 4 feels no faster than a N
Bulky phone
Massive device
Cuts into palm
Battery is underwhelming a bit
Poor night capture
Not much S Pen evolution
S Voice still useless
Expensive off contract
A Bit Pricey
Awkward and unwieldy form
Less premium and thoughtfully designed than other flagship phones
Less smooth and snappy performance than other devices
Complex software
Underwhelming speaker quality
No wireless charging
Phone looks a little large when held to one's ear
No Android 4.0—yet
Not waterproof
Less battery life than other flagships
Camera struggles in low light
Too much bloatware
Lacks quality feel
Only small improvements over Note 3
It's too big to carry comfortably
And too bulky use with one hand. The stylus is nice
But the software to support it isn't there yet. Also
It has a stylus. Android 2.3 with Samsung's TouchWiz skin makes me yearn for ICS. Astounding amount of AT&T shove
Single speaker on the back sounds tinny
Trades comfort for style. Requires some work to get the most out of the experience
Low light and indoor shots aren't as good as they should be
Too big for some folks
TouchWiz still busier than it should be. Expensive
Needs to reduce the number of pre-installed apps
Some sluggish performance
Too large to use with one hand
No Ice Cream Sandwich (yet)
Still riddled with gimmicky
Novelty
Useless UI elements. Come on
Samsung
Just give us a pure Android OS with your specialty apps as options
Not particularly high on style
Requires a significant outlay
Isn't a clear choice without the S Pen
Still just too much Samsung software
Overly complex in places
Seriously
Look at all these settings
Quad HD resolution still an untapped feature
No growth in battery life
The Briefing second screen app is still limited
Feature set may be daunting to the novice user
Only average battery life
Many duplicate/incomplete features
Interface still needs UX work
Uninspiring appearance
Inconsistent software design
Limited 4K video recording
News came when Apple also released the iPhone 6 Plus phablet this year and obviously no other phone can beat iPhones at the moment in terms of unit sales. However
Does it mean that iPhone 6 Plus is better than the new Samsung Galaxy Note 4? Let's check o
No physical two-stage shutter button
Camera app still a little unstructured
Selective Focus feature difficult to use
No IP67 certification (compared to Galaxy S5)
Some noise in lowlight conditions
Often refocuses for no apparent reason
Isn't waterproof
Loudspeaker still needs work
Some aspects of TouchWiz are still clunky and need work.
Bigger. Better.Samsung sure knows how to add just the right things to each iteration of its leading Galaxy S and Galaxy Note lineups to make the decision difficult as to whether you should upgrade from the previous model. But in the case of the Note 4, th...
Gorgeous design with high-end materials, Nice display, Best camera in a Galaxy smartphone, Powerful performance, Great battery life
Isn't waterproof, Loudspeaker still needs work
Not only is the Note 4 the best Samsung smartphone I've ever used, but it's also the best large-screen phone on the market -- even better than the iPhone 6 Plus....

A few quirks from the Note 3 have also been addressed. Remember My Magazine, for instance? It was a news-viewing tool built into the home screen on the Note 3 that felt like a hastily made and half-baked reaction to HTC's BlinkFeed. The feature has now be...

Do you want a big phone? If so, you should get this big phone because it is the best big phone. Windowed multitasking, split screen options, and drag and drop stylus features turn the Note 4 into a device that actually has a reason to be as big as it is...
I've already made my case against phablets in my iPhone 6 Plus review, but at this point I also realize it's a trend that won't die anytime soon. If you're into big phones, the Note 4 is one of the best options around. But, as I mentioned before, there...

Samsung's Galaxy Note 4 launches after the Apple iPhone 6 Plus and just before the rumored large screen Google Nexus device, so competition is fierce at the moment. If you plan to use the S Pen functionality, then go order your Note 4 now, you will be ver...

Abstract: Samsung has long been criticized for the relatively low-rent look of its smartphones. Compared with Apple's iPhone and the HTC's One M7 and M8, which offer aluminum chassis, Samsung's plastic phones looked downright cheap.The Note 4 fixes this. Unlike its...
