I have the Note 3 but I seriously can't wait to get my hands on a Note 4!

[JLUNT]

Excellent phone... I love my note 4....big screen.... Lightening fast.... Good camera and able to customise as per with Android.... Was an iPhone user until I got the note 2 two years ago and just upgraded to the note 4 last week...

[MrJeffw]

Looks like a winner too That display is fantastic.

[FranciscoDiazk]

great first look on the Note 4, cant  wait to see more

This is perfect as I do multitasking a lot. I like that android can customize everything inside. You can have a new phone practically every week. With this 3gig ram then that should fit with my Office Emails, spreadsheets, browsing and presentation. I am owning an S4 and I am happy with it. One that is lacking with my current phone is the s-pen which should be a good tool for me to fully utilize with my office work comes the Note4.

Theres only so much you can add after you make awesome phones like Samsung who add nearly every feature possible.

Guys the note line can not be waterproof. It's had a fucking gaping hole slot for the spen. Unless they remove the spen feature from the note line. This phone will never be waterproof or resistance. This phone is great upgrade from last years model. I have the note 3 and will definitely be using my next installment to trade up for it. The metal bands around the phone with the higher ppi screen mixed with the upgrade to both the front and back camera makes this phone a really solid upgrade. Haters gonna alway hate on samsung for whatever reason.

I got to play with one of these at Best Buy and it was badass.

with every release of a a flagship Android smartphone since the HTC Desire initial reviewers have always been quick to praise their lack of lag and smooth running. It has almost never turned out to be true. Either the screen transitions would occasionally glitch, or the native messages app would stutter with scrolling, etc etc. You get the idea. Probably the first Android phone that I've experienced almost completely glitch free and buttery smooth operation of its native functions, ie not 3rd party functions, is the HTC One M8. I reluctant to say everything works perfectly because no doubt there will be things that don't, but so far it really does seems to work as it ought to. I just hope that the Note 4 the heavy laden software doesn't feel cumbersome or tacky in daily use, because it looks to be one of the top contenders for phone of the year.

Got One on saturday and it works. It does what it says on the tin. IPhone 6 just can't compete, check out the comparison tests.

[tismeDenis]

Excellent, that'll more than do 😁thanks for the info 1st on yt.

[NottyGurlStyle]

i wish Samsung released the phone already! I need to shut the droid haters down. lol Apple fans swear they have a better product, but as nice as it may look they are still way behind everyone else.

You can use every app (not only Samsung apps) in the multiwindow feature if you are rooted with multiwindow plus. You can do the same in the Note 3.

[IlovVictoriaJustice]

I WANT IT! screen looks bomb asf I hope the s6 screens looks like that. even better if possible. also the design

[Supersrael]

The flare corners is from Apple iPhones! That design first came out on the iPod touch!

[PROMISE]

Everyone notices that battery went down 4% from 69% (0:15) to 65% (0:01) after 12 minutes of using.

[LJLMETAL]

The Note 4 will blow the competition out of the water

[TheGaIaxy]

I say, this is the best looking Samsung phone to date! I love the metallic - REAL, metallic edging! Finally the stitching is gone! The back is at least not as ugly as the S5. I doubt they will ever perfect the back cover or use metal as it will block radio signals. Love the QHD display! I am not a Note user, but if the S6 has the same design accent and QHD then I am all in! But...I gotta wait for Apple. I want to do my research before buying anything. But the Note 4 is great!

[minhuctran]

Are your hands too big or the phone is small?

[VaunShiz]

Lolol all the haters are just people stuck on contract with their isheep Fisher Price phones for children
