I think Samsung should hire another ad company or at least provide a barf bag. I'm waiting for

Here you can see note 4. Believe it or not. It's black with four squares.

You saw them, don't you.
Thoughts?

They came, they saw, they conquered. I have to say this is the best release from Samsung in quite a while.

Well, If you like the Note concept and you are coming from the Note 2 it would appear to be a significant improvement. From a Note 3 it may not be as big a jump up but still may be worth it. I'm tempted but I've got a month to come to my senses!

Still. The first note is the note I like best so far. It was a little wow at first pick up. Too bad it died

The first Note was sooo good because it had all the right ingredients baked in, and there was nothing like it.

There was no device with a battery that big.
No device with a screen that big.
No device with comparable screen tech.
No device with a comparable processor.
It was thin, powerful, feature-packed, and beautiful.


Let's just recap its competition; iPhone 4S, SGS2, Moto RAZR, G2x... pathetic.
The Gnex was literally the only other option, and that device hasn't aged well unlike the OG Note.

What the Note 4 is better than the Note 3....
2.5D glass.
Real metal sides.
Better side buttons.
No faux-stitching on back.
The selfie-camera is heaps heaps better.
16MP camera is slightly better than previous 13MP.
microUSB (fast-charging) > Samsung-lame-microUSB-3.0

Things that don't really matter....
Fingerprint reader.
Heart rate monitor.
Lame software gimmicks
3200 vs 3220 mAh battery

What the Note 3 is better than the Note 4...
Note 3 is smaller
1080p>QHD (less demanding, more battery life, equally impressive displays)
New processor is more thirsty, but won't achieve better real-world performance

If I had to choose, I'd choose Note 4 simply because of the aesthetics... but I'm not really happy that the new device is larger and suffers from more thirstier processor and display. I wished it didn't have those extra gimmicky features/sensors. I do believe there's beauty in simplicity.
