After seen Note 4 episode, i feel Apple will give big damage to sales of note 4, if someone want samsung note only why they will buy expencive note 4 when note 3 will be available in half price of that, also iphone is coming with bigger screen, i predict tough year for samsung sale.

I doubt that iPhone will have better camera.. Also iPhone could never achieve what note 3 and note 4 can, with Samsung office options, including S Pen
sent from note3
I am not a fan of iPhone but i don't feel break through between note 3 & note 4, so max s- pen fan will go for note 3 because of price & definitely some crowd who like iphone but because of small screen came to samsung will go for Iphone i guess.

iPhone wont be a threat to Note 4 only if Samsung manages to keep the price almost same as or below Note 3 and well lets wait and see what Apple has to offer coz since past 1-2 years phone upgrades haven't been anything extra ordinary as there's nothing much left to surprise, so lets just wait and see.

I have never liked iPhones
Even if will be having bigger screen
I never like The iOS and its UI
Its not because of I am Android fanboy
Android its genuinely better in my opinion.
And I was expecting 4 GB RAM and idk if it has x64 bit support.

I agree with you. As the owner of Samsung Galaxy Note 2 I will buy Note 3 instead of Note 4. It will be much more cheaper while the specs are almost the same.
Having in mind Samsung Galaxy Note 4, I expected a BIGGER battery (4000mAh), slightly bigger screen (5.9inch), stereo speakers (similar to HTC ONE). ?
Yes note 2, s2 , s3 owner will definitely prefer Note 3 because of price.

I feel Samsung is becoming a joke tbh. The design is almost the same and hardware wise it wont be running circles around the note 3. I guess it's bye bye Samsung for me in the future. I was hoping for an sd805 soc. Closed source exynos means no cm for it. Can't live w/o it.
Note 4 is a Note 3+
It was expected it wont be a huge difference
And the price is insane for a note 4
You have to wait 2 years if you want a real upgrade
For example
S3 to S5
Note 2 to note 4
And yes iphone will blow the note 4 away
With power of the cpu and the hardware
Cant go around this fact
Highly disappointed expected more so I would have a reason to upgrade good thing LG make great phones so I'll wait for the gflex2

This is first time I feel that Samsung has placed a suicide bomb in their department. Note series users always upgraded because Samsung provided something extra and special. I am afraid it is lacking in note 4. Hence most people , perhaps 90% are saying they won't upgrade from Note 3. This is indeed failure for Samsung.
One after one new model producing by sammy, which make them confused, mixed bag of different models in flagship model, nothing new, note 4 is mixture of S5 & alfa.

Samsung must think note users are moronic iPhone users that will line up to throw away our money at the same product just because they added two more features to it. Well my note 3 is still kicking. I'll be looking for lg to redden themselves with the next lg flex they come out with. Thanks for the note 2 and 3 Samsung but it definitely looks like I'm skipping out on the note 4

About the price, yes. note 4 should not be more expensive than note 3, if Samsung want to stay in race. but about the features of note 4, I'm kinda pleased. yes it's not that much a big update to note 3, but this is the case in every companies updates these days. after just one year, we should not waiting to see a revolution!
specially I'm pleased with new touchwiz UI which is way more modern and lighter than current version. multi tasking is much more useful now
I wont trade my note 3 for note 4 of course. just waiting for great devs to start porting it's rom maybe!
BTW the new iphone would have it's own buyers and the note 4 also! the Android and IOS users are separated widely since release of ICS and I don't think that there would be too many migrating users...

What a bunch of cry babies. You people need to understand that new phones these days do not have much to improve on, except perhaps for some software features. What did you expect? Snapdragon 1000? 6gb ram? They added what was available at today's standards.
Better build quality, a few more gimmicks and a sick ui. It's a win.

Fwiw the note 2 has a few blaze folks if familiarity is a factor - ptmr has a few of his jedi roms, and I've muddled something together as well.
Yeah I heard the nexus 4 has a speaker issue with buzzing. Plus its lg, need I say more.
The note 2 is freaking massive IMO its a mini tablet I could of got a pretty new one for 250 off contract but it was just not my cup of tea sweet phone but me I really don't want a phone much bigger than 4.5 inches and that thing is 5.5 ugh... me I'd go with the nexus 4 u get aosp 4.2 out of the box and the screen is beautiful on the nexus 4 it has better than HD res it blows the iPhone 5s retina away... Go Google...but I have had bad experiences with LG phones but have heard good things about the Nexus 4 and a few bad but any phone will have arguments for both sides u just have to do a pros and cons list and read reviews and try them both out... just holding the note 2 I knew I'd drop it waaay to much and I wouldn't have insurance so... but put me down for a nexus 4
MY 2 CENTS
!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡!PLEASE click THANKS if I helped!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡!
Nexus hands down. The Ubuntu for phones will be out (meaning the nexus phones will get early release soon) and that will be one of the prime phones to test it on. I know it will be out for others, but the nexus line will be the most updated. I personally feel the gn2 is too big to keep in my pocket, but that's me.
Yeah the size of the note 2 is definitely not for everyone and should definitely be taken into account in the decision process. N4 wasn't available when I got the note 2 though so my choice was easy lol
Hmmm.....
May just have to get that Note 2
Bah...Those ****ers lied to me. Its a S3 Vs Nexus 4.

I am now thinking the Nex 4. Its 50 bucks. Not too bad.

I "upgraded" from a Nexus 4 to the Note 3 because on paper it sounded fantastic (especially the full HD screen). However, the performance of the device is extremely disappointing. There's a real disconnect between swiping the screen and the software responding. A perfect example of this is in the browser(s) scrolling department. I find that it's worse on Chrome that it is with the other browser. Sometimes in mobile rendered pages scrolling if fine. But most of the time, it's very jittery (it's not fluid and pixel perfect smooth). Very bad for the end-user experience.
Another example: the official Engadget app. Scrolling is extremely choppy on the Note 3. I have found that going into the Developer Mode options and turning on "Force GPU rendering" makes scrolling in Engadget very smooth (although it still stutters).
I understand that what I'm describing will be very subjective, and there'll be many "no lag here" type posts. Just writing about my experience with the Galaxy Note 3. Personally, I find it extremely disappointing. I will never buy another Samsung product.
I'm loving every part of my note 3 so far and find everything smooth and responsive. Battery life has been excellent and the screen is a wonder. But it's all opinions and there will never be a phone that is universally liked by every single person.
Hopefully things will improve for you and you start to enjoy using this wonderful device

I'm assuming they mean "Smart Stay, Smart Pause" etc.
I own Sony xperia x ultra and I confirm that it is is much smoother than Note 3 even that has only 2 GO of RAM. But the note has a charm and other things that made a little lag just not important: sound quality, s planner, smart stay, camera quality. At the moment the Note is the best SMART PHONE on the market. ( I do own S4 and XZU). My dream device is Note 3 with IP67.

I checked out the Note 3 at an AT&T corporate store, and as I posted in one of my threads, it isn't very impressive. Note 1 feels much more premium compared to the Note 3.
There is something about Note 3 which screams "cheap toy!!" - maybe it's the build quality or the weight. Even the software isn't as snappy as it should be. I had to press the "Return"/"Back" and the "Menu" button three or four times sometimes to get it to work. I was very disappointed to see all this mediocrity in a flagship Samsung phone in 2013.
The LG G2 is what we call snappy and in my opinion (and Techno Buffalo's), it is the best Android phone ever in terms of speed and responsiveness. If the LG G2 had a stylus, I would drop the plan to buy the Note 3 in a second. Playing with the Note 3 for about 20 mins unexpectedly made me wonder if it was an upgrade at all over my Note 1, let alone a Note 2, and that's disappointing.

Don't mind the looks, build quality and general experience of the M8 but the low res camera is a joke for 2014 and 16GB is not enough with the new Kitkat restrictions on external SD cards! Why are ALL these clowns making 16GB flagships when the external SD card has just been severely limited in use???
I made the same question when I had the Note 2 amd the S4 came.... I downgraded to S4 because the Note2 was big for my jeans pocket but the Note 2 is better than the S4. Now I ordered the Note 3 for the bigger screen and 3gb ram.
I'll jump ship to the Note 4 LOL
going to S5 would be retrocess..

I feel that its just the camera that's one up so no. Even if the note 4 comes out, unless its also water resistant, I don't think I'd trade my note 3 in.
I wouldn't go to the S5.. That would be a downgrade in my eyes.
The Note 3 still has a few advantages over the current crop 2014 smartphones, buying a S5,M8,Z2 is just wasting money I think.
Plus come end of the year, those that sold their Note 3 for a S5,M8,Z2 ect will only be selling it again "at a big loss" when the Note 4 arrives.
So no i won't be buying anything until the Note 4 arrives later on in the year, even then i'll wait until around Christmas time when the price will have dropped, as it did with the Note 3 when i bought it.
Until then I just hope Samsung doesn't now neglect the Note 3, with the lack of updates & fixes like they did with the Note 2.

I hesitated a long time as I wanted to see what competition came up with.
Both X2 and M8 looked nice but the reviews I read didn't convince me.
Last Saturday I couldn't resist and bought my Note 3.
OK the difference isn't that wild with the N2 but I don't regret it; it's like the 2 but far smoother and faster. Also the screen is way nicer.
I'm particularly amazed by the battery. With my 2 I'd be very close to 80% or even lower while my N3 is at 91%
I fear like you that updating will be a mess once Samsung launches the next generation but we'll have to live with that I guess.

I felt confident I wouldn't feel let down by getting the Note 3, and I don't. Even today I'd plump for the Note 3 over the S5, all being equal. The Note 4 will tempt me but I seriously think this is the first phone I will keep for two years. I just don't see any gamechangers or ways to improve on this form factor and hardware anytime soon. Only bigger/better battery upgrades or a jump up in camera would make a big difference.

Samsung reveled two brand new phones the SGN4 and the SGN Edge. The only thing that pushes me to buy one of these phones is the feature that turns a picture into an editable text. It will be a huge PLUS in University in my opinion.
The hardware is exactly the same on both devices. But one has the little curved display. Which do you think is best? Should i make the step and buy the "unsual" smartphone or the "usual" one?
Im switching from an old laggy Galaxy S3 . For daily phone/message use i will have my iPhone 4 small and practical phone. I feel more comfortable calling and texting with iOS .
So whats your opinion guys? I believe that the Edge version will not sell as many as the note 4, and maybe rooting wont be so easy on this device.

When I would choose then I would choose the Note Edge because I wanna try it out.
But it's also much money and maybe that edge stuff is really annoying and all your money will be wasted for a bad feature.
If you have enough money to sell your Edge in case if you don't like it and buy a Note 4 than you should go for the Edge.

As ive seen the note edge specs differs from note 4 ... note 4 seems to have greater cpu and bigger battery..

It's better here in the land of t-mobile note 5s.
A lot of note 5 devs, combined the edge features with the note 5 roms, so it's cross platform to an extent. I hear a lot of people don't use the edge features either. So with the note 5 roms, you get the best of both worlds. Spen and edge features
Note 5 for hard core players and manly !
S6+ for businessmen and girls !

Get the Note. I'm not sure how development is for the Edge+, but most ROMs over here have the edge features implemented, so as someone said above, you get the best of both worlds. I use both edge features and spen features quite often.

I know you were just joking, but this makes no sense since the Note 5 is much better for business than probably any other phone. I constantly take notes with my S Pen in meetings and on the fly, plus keeping all of my business data and accounts locked away in Knox and out of the way when I'm home. I think the Edge+ is a great device, don't get me wrong, but it certainly isn't better for business use.
T-mobile note 5 is the best there is. Just check the development section.
Rich people or businessman do not have time for smartphone sir! They want VERTU and the look of luxury and S6 is perfect looks for em and women

Both the EDGE PLUS AND NOTE 5 PACK THE SAME GUTS....S PEN HAS MORE FUNCTIONALITY THAN AN EDGE SCREEN. I FEEL MY PHONE IS NAKED WITHOUT AN S PEN. I DON'T CALL IT A STYLUS, THE S PEN DESERVES IT'S OWN NAME. THIS NOTE 5 IS BEAST!
I was in the debate when purchasing my note. Edge plus gold or note 5 gold. I still hate the edge curve screen.
, dont care what anybody else says it still feel edgy and sharp holding those edge phones (yes the plus). I was in the booth for about an hour handling both phone and that was the deciding factor for me. Note 5 much more comfortable, s pen is very usefull.
I'd probably wait for the s7 edge+, assuming it gets released along with the other 2 s7 variants soon. Waterproof with microsd and a snapdragon 820 (speculative).
If you must have a device now, then the Note5.

I'd have to disagree with you there, friend. I'm a business owner and my Note is my primary business tool. Notes with the sPen and most important contacts just a swipe and a click away with the edge screen fumctions. In fact, the way the Adobe PDF viewer app works on Android, the only way to open PDFs that were first downloaded with Adobe, with the "Write on PDF" app, is to go into /system and copy them from the Adobe folder, which is impossible to do without root.
If you don't have a use for the spen, then I'd go with the plus personally. It pretty much comes down to personal preference. Virtually the same phone, other than design.
I had the same issue. I ended up getting the note 5. And no complaints
