I must upgrade this week and on fence as to which to buy. Same phone, one has a pen other a curved screen....all same specs etc..
So........I'm making my decision based off of devs currently making and maintaining roms and such. Anyone care to chime in and offer there opinion. Thanks
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 !

I'm planning to sell my note 5... had it since November 25ish. I just don't like how Samsung manages their updates. And newer TouchWiz is meh... I'm planning to get nexus 6p. Or iPhone 6s plus.
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
I like NOTE series is better even Im not use all the features of it. Im a gamer lol. And now I will be a fan of VR. Hihihi

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

MWC is starting in a couple of days and if tradition is followed, Samsung shall launch the next Galaxy soon.
Too many reports suggest that the latest device shall have a whole different UI, fingerprint sensor in the home button, 16mp camera and also a new LED flash module.
I, for one, am looking forward to seeing the features in action. Agreed, the development on Sammy devices sucks, specially Exynos, but hey, I can't deny the fact that they make the best phones too.
What say you?

I say it's a completely useless thread.
No it's not useless!
To be honest I'm getting tired of the yearly releases for the sake of it. From the leaks it looks like the S5 will have a qHD screen, fingerprint reader, and the usual upgraded processor and ram. Probably a 64 bit OS but if you know a bit about 32/64bit you'll know it's pointless and just for marketing.
The fingerprint reader is also pointless. Again Samsung are doing it just because apple did and don't have access to the same quality solution. The iPhone solution works really well. Which pains me to say. But Sammy's swipe solution is just going to take longer to unlock and is the same fad that laptops went through 5 years ago. Only business laptops come with fingerprint readers nowadays.
Lastly is the OS. I don't feel that Samsung adds any value with their touchwiz extras. My phone has had Cyanogenmod installed from about 3 months in and I've started to think it's going the way of touchwiz and not adding any value.
I'm running the Nexus 5 ROM with xposed and that gives me all the features and modifications I need. Xposed is the real game changer here. The only problem is the stability. The S4 running a Nexus 5 ROM is never going to be as stable as the Nexus 5. The Nexus 5 is a faster device then the S4 and the battery life is far, far better. I now have one as my work phone and part of me is hoping the S5 doesn't have any ground breaking features that makes me want it. I'll then buy a Nexus 5 and lower my mobile contract saving some money in the process.
The Nexus 5 may not have a qHD display but within 6-9 months the Nexus 6 will with a more mature processor and better battery life. Until the Galaxy has a bleeding edge feature I don't see the point in having a bleeding edge device. And it doesn't look like the S5 will
^ You know there's a diff between qHD and QHD right? qHD is quarter-HD while QHD is Quad-HD, the S5 may have the latter IF rumors are true.
Anyway...
I'm very excited, I'm going to get it in either March or April, looking forward to the new UI, Camera and Exynos CPU, I'm also looking forward to a new design, I hope it's a stunner (fingers crossed).
Will use my GS4 as a 2nd line when I get my GS5.
I'll only be excited (related to xda topics) when I'm able to kick out Knox from my phone

I am with you because of Exynos but i think LG plays only with numbers and names. For example S4 and G2 both have GPS but nobody say that G2 takes 2-3 mins to find ~10 sats and ours S4 takes 2-3 seconds to find 15+ sats! poor GPS chip or poor software i don`t know.
Another example is WiFi-Direct. both have it but in G2 you can only use it with LG devices.
I think that LG is still not a good buy.

I think it's unarguable that Samsung offers cutting edge hardware. If only they had a better software design team. Honestly speaking, I'd much rather use a Snapdragon variant over exynos because of lack of development.

I agree that Samsung are at the cutting edge but that edge is not longer very far ahead. Other companies are already producing QHD displays and phones with finger print readers. You're right about the Exynos processor. As awesome as it maybe there's a lack of community support and so far Europe has only had the Qualcomm offering. I don't mind this as once again the Qualcomm offering isn't hugely different.
Please don't think I'm complaining or trashing Samsung here. I think the whole smartphone development has slowed down over the past 2 years since the S3.

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

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 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.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
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.

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...

after launch of NOTE 4,Within a week time Devs will bring ROM with same Touch wiz UI I believe.
New touchwiz is crap. Hate it. Settings menu is awfull. I saw it on S5. Cant stand all the new icons like bubbles
Note 3 rooted knox 1, my last Samsuck crap. I want freedom. Stay away from Samsuck!
god i hope your wrong i think apple r crapple as i call em r just the most god awful phones . i work with phones and trouble shooting r doing anything with i phones is the pits
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.
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.
November/December will my HTC One M8 arrive !
As ive seen the note edge specs differs from note 4 ... note 4 seems to have greater cpu and bigger battery..

Who wants this amazing device?
Any news on availability?
Will this phone have a screen protector? how should it applied to a curved screen? and most importantly will it get an AOSP Rom? of course a proper which uses the curved screen?
I'm teetering back and forth on what to get. I'll need to see some reviews before I can make an informed decision. With that being said I'm leaning towards the Note 4 at the moment.
I want it badly !!
Worst information, that Edge will be available only in several markets. I've read on sammobile about Singapour, Korea, US, Spain and Australia.
It will be available in the US an all major carriers.
And I'm probably going to get it as long as developer support is there. Even if it's not as prevalent as established devices.
I'm a cutting edge kind of guy and this is definitely my style.
I've been waiting for this device every since the first picture was released but after finding out VR only works with the Note 4, Edge isn't for me anymore.

Me too. I am sure there will be some good pre-launch deals but I would like to get my hands on one first to see if it's suitable, if not definitely the Note 4... but when?!!
I'm still on my Note II and I don't see any good reason to go for the Note 4, but I'd definitely consider the edge simply for it's uniqueness.
But ONLY if it gets rooted and ROM'd.
Speaking of which, someone please tell me the makers of DN3 are working on porting the Note 4's Touchwiz back to Note II! :fingers-crossed:

I think I want the edge too. If nothing else if development is not there, in 6 months I'll just get something else or just live with stock . It just seems too "cutting edge" to pass up. Note 4 is great but a little something different in form would be nice for a change.
I am really leaning towards the Edge, it just looks so cool (yes I'm shallow) and 64gb memory doesn't hurt. I'm going to wait until I can play with both phones, though. I'm not in a big hurry, my Note 2 is still going strong. Rather take some time to make my choice.
I want one badly but I'm afraid Samsung won't release a Dev. Edition Edge for us Verizon guys.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to choose between a Dev. Edition Note 4 or a locked Note Edge :crying:
I want one to but it's being said around other sites that it going to cost us almost a $1000.00. What are your thoughts.
Potentially Unique and Useful Device
I too have a Note II and it is great device. I'll probably get an Edge on Sprint contract if the price is not ridiculous. If it is, I'll probably seriously consider the IPhone 6 Phablet. The Edge has the opportunity to be a truly unique device with the help of XDA Developers.
I definitely will buy one, it s soooo sexy!!

I'm definitely buying one BUT I won't get one of the first shipment of orders, I'll wait until the xda development is established because I already know that the AT&T version will have a locked bootloader.

I love the new technology. I to wonder how much support there will be for the device The fact that the powerful specs of the Note 4 are under the hood are even a more compelling reason to grab this device.
I think the Note Edge will be great, but theoretically it should slightly underperform compared with the Note 4 because a single processor will be powering 2 screens.
I will most likely buy this device... (I am a hardcore **** Galaxy Note Fan... but... but...
I will buy the Galaxy Note 4 first for sure (first day it hits the store, without doubt... same as I did with Note 2 & Note 3... got Note 1 after about 2 months it was released)... (T-Mo Version) because it will most likely have root, unlocked bootloader and all the things we all love... and... then when the Edge comes... I will wait a week or 2... as soon as I see that it can be rooted and some dev support... I will end up buying this one too... have them both coexist for a month more or less and see how things go with each device... (development support, roms, etc...) and after a month maybe 2... will finally decide who is the lucky winner... (the looser... I will sell on ebay)
that's my story...
after seeing a video review of the Note Edge, i'm not so sure about it anymore for one main reason - one handed use. because of the screen on the right side, apparently its very difficult to use with your right hand without accidentally activating and/or pressing something on that screen. I'm a heavy one-handed/right-handed user on all my phones and this is a big deal.
I guess I'll have to get used to using both hands (of course its required when it comes to using the stylus)
I have the Note Edge through Verizon, and I have seen numerous ads for the S6 and S6 Edge coming out. Just wondering why the Note Edge seems to be non existent. There seems to be no love for this amazing device that started it all.
Because people are stupid, preferring a shiny, blingy, phone without expandable storage or a removable battery to the more functional Note Edge.

Because Samsung never advertised the Note Edge. They stuck all their eggs in one basic with the Note 4.
That's too bad. Hopefully when people get their hands on the S6 edge, they'll realize that there's also a note edge out there.

not pleased Sammy
To be honest, I am disturbed and disappointed by Samsung's disowning of the edge. No advertising, limited good accessories, lack of developer support - from third party players AND samsung. I have never bought a premium phone that was supported as little as this. I have honestly stopped coming to this forum because there has been nothing of significance happening. No ROMS, no panels, no accessories. Ok, its not NOTHING but it is beyond scarce. I think the edge is one of the most innovative and best phones I ever owned. I get it, we were test dummies for the s6 edge. If there is no removable battery and sd card in the edge 2 I will switch to another phone maker come the fall.

so is T-Mobile which is the variant i own. there is basically 2 roms, and one of them has been abandoned since mid December. If you are looking for development this is not the device to get, i think because it was released after the Note 4, without a concrete release date, and the talk of limited availability that a lot of buyers/developers went with the Note 4 instead. i am personally going to switch to the Note 4 soon, and wait and see what the Note edge 2 and Note 5 develops into.
would be nice with with a note 4 rom, nobody porting those here?
i am wondering if i should take edge or note 4... little scary with lack of support tho... dont have time to play so much with the roms lately...
