At 2:23 she didn't even drag the notification bar from the top of the screen?? Don't blame the phone for being "slow"...maybe try to actually reach the top of the screen next time and then see if its "slow" as you think....

[AlvaroGarcia]

Wow I'm surprised she didn't touch on removable battery or even expandable storage..

[robertscalero]

I'm watching on the note 4 get it?

[dynamicmaxwell]

The Note series has never been for simple minded users, Ms. Stern for example. If you're looking for just a large phone that makes no use of the large screen, go with the iPhone 6 Plus and all the other phablets. Reserve the Note 4 for power users and people who actually appreciate utilizing the large display properly. The Note 4 is still the King of Phablets.

I'm holding a 5.5" display phone and I love it. That's what I thought in 2011, I said to myself that phones are getting too big. The perfect size is 3.5" to 4".
I was so cynical about ballooning phone sizes that I forbade myself from getting a 4.8" display phone, like the Galaxy S3, I ended up with a 4.6" that's named a " compact " smartphone. Lol 😂
Fast forward 18 months later, and I had to accept the fact thay big smartphones are inescapable, as there are more pros than cons to a bigger phone. So much pros that it's irresistible not to get a 5.5"+ smartphone. The phablet fashion literally converted me.

all this lady doing is insulting the note users.

Like the review on the Samsung note 4 and was fun to watch. It is better than the iPhone 6 plus because, it offers more in software and hardware like removable battery. The iPhone 6 plus is the same as the iPhone 6 but bigger with less features and bigger price tag.

Why are y’all all so dramatic about the intro that was her years ago

[greaveslb]

This lady doesn't know what she's talking about. This "review" was more about bashing the greatest smartphone on the market and giving praise to the iphone. This is not a comparison video so she should take her iphone and make a review instead of this crap. By thI'm writing this on my Tmobile Tmobile Note 4 and watching videos atthe same time. Try doing that crapple.

 Hey there Ms Apple Sheeple, just go sit on your 6+, bend it, break it, and have a good time.  You're the wrong person to review the Note 4, the best smartphone on the Planet. ...

note4 is better you know that and even iPhone is faster, I prefer to note4's design, even now I feel that it is better than note5 or s7

[AcesAcesYT]

Lol... the note 4 will be the phone of 2014

[jophytosi]

i cant believe this lady had the audacity to say the iphone takes more detailed shot than the note lol what a joke. I mean even though you like apple you do not have to be so blatant and over it with a few positive remarks.

[thepeddle]

Wow.. How does she keep her job with crap like this

[Karatekid]

This review sucks. The reviewer does not know what she is talking about. "sounds rather unfortunate"?! Do you no know how to use the settings app? This Woman needs to be replaced ASAP. smh

[anthonyi]
