Still the Best Samsung and Android... ever.
By Ameet Deshpandeon
I got this for 34999 from WS Retail recently.
Packaging-10/10
Flipkart & WS Retail -10/10
Product-10/10
Undoubtedly this still is the best Samsung and Android phone ever made and released.
S6,S6 edge and Note 5 fail before the Note 4 due to non replaceable and horrible battery, removed SD card support and glass back which can cost a fortune if you drop your phone.
IMP: The Note 4 now comes with 5.0.1 installed out of box. I reverted to 4.4.4 using Odin. Kitkat is so much better. Downgrading is as simple as 1,2,3.. Knox wont get triggered and everything works seamlessly on Kitkat....I like the Note 4 better with Kitkat than on LP.
In terms of battery life, Note 4 beats S6,S6 edge and Note 5, S5, S4 and all other samsungs and many other flagships HANDS DOWN even though the Display is Quad HD screen. 3220maH is more than you need. Ultra power saving is another awesome feature of the Note 4 extending battery life of the phablet.
In terms of speed the Note 4 with the SnpDrgn 805 @ 2.7GHz with 3GB Ram is far more than what is required and will be for a long time to come. Plus Android M is coming for sure for Note 4.
Camera is absolutely outstanding for still shots and video. Audio output in V.Rec is fantastic; thanks to the 3 mics on the Note 4.
Pictures are crisp, vivid with tons of details and OIS helps a lot in low light.
Finger scanner in Note 4 is not and good as the S6,S6 edge and Note 5 but it works for me at all times.
S-Pen is a magical wand in the Note 4 which has terrific use and utility. Not to forget that on Note 5 you can break the stylus and the Spen feature if inserted wrongly. For that purpose Note 4 wins over Note 5 as S-Pen is safer in Note 4.
The feel of the phone in hand on Note 4 is an absolute delight and premium.
The Display is one of the best displays ever. The screen magically get ultra bright in Sunlight increasing the legibility which is a very unique feature of the Note 4 . It can get very dim at night so the display is Best there is and more than what you could have asked for.
Call Quality, Speaker output is Awesome. Music is stunning and there are tons of features to explore.
ONLY DRAWBACK is the rounded edge screen because of which very few tempered glass screen protectors can be used without the HALO effect. Other than this, the phone has no flaw whatsoever.
Also I got it for 34,999/- which according to me is a steal deal on Fliplkart. WS Retail delivered an absolute genuine phone at awesome price for which they deserve a praise.
You dont need to root the Note 4 and un-rooted it performs damn well...Just disable the apps you wont use.
Last - You cannot go wrong with the Note 4. It is the BEST thing that Samsung Ever made.
The best phone in today's market - A mini laptop.
By Rajesh Kon
I have been using Note 4(white) for more than a month.
Pros:
-Multitasking made easy. All inbuilt apps(incl. WhatsApp, Facebook, EverNote) supports multiple Pop up window feature.
-4G/LTE support for india.
-Touch response is excellent.
-Music: Sound quality is extremely good.
-Different customizable screenshot techniques, converts "text in the image" to editable text.
-S pen: New features added. Can write like a pen with less pressure. Easy selection of the text and images using S-pen with a single click.
-Camera: Great image quality with both Rear and Front camera, OIS, Different types of Selfie's (using front and rear camera).
-Private Mode: Hides Images/Videos/My Files and doesn't show anywhere in the mobile, can be unlocked using Fingerprint scanner.
-SideKey Panel: This is a small pop up window at any side of the screen with all the 3 bottom buttons (Options|Home|Recent Apps and one customizable app). This feature avoids usage of physical buttons.
-Battery backup: On continuos usage of 3g internet, moderate music and calls, battery lasted for 15 hours with still 20% battery remaining.
(Without Power saving mode): Battery lasts for more than 20 hours on average calls/internet/music. This is awesome for high end phones like this.
There are different normal power saving modes, through which we can save even more battery.
-Ultra Power Saving mode: Samsung claims 15 days battery backup on 100% charge, minimum 2 days battery backup on 10% battery (haven't tried).
-Adaptive Fast Charger: This is added advantage for this mobile. Charges to 50% in 30-40 mins and 100% in max 90 mins, inspite of its high resolution and features.
-Voice Recording: Normal mode, Interview mode, Meeting mode and Voice memo modes are available for recording.
Cons:
-Over price.
-Multi window feature available only for In built apps and few other standard apps.
-Finger print scanner: can be used with limited apps. (screen unlock, private mode, web sign in and samsung account only)
Note 4 IS THE BEST in Market
By Vikram Rajon
I don't want to compare any other brands and mock them. In Today's Market Note 4 is the best in class. I will be honest in this user review and you decide what is best for you after reading this. Samsung needs to reduce the price for sure. The Price is way too much at this point to buy.
I used the Note 3 for almost 10 months. The Note 4 is improved in all the areas but Is it time to upgrade?? It's your call..
The note 4 's biggest changes from Note 3
1. QUAD HD 2K (2560X1440) SCREEN IS GORGEOUS BUT 4K SCREENS ON MOBILE IS ON THE CORNER SO within next May 2015 we may get 4k screens on mobile with 64bit processors from Snapdragon so why upgrade?. So this quad HD thing is SUPERB but only for the new purchasers not for upgrades. Another minus is lack of USB 3.0 which was awesome in note 3.
SCREEN SENSITIVITY- Samsung has increased screen sensitivity 200 percent. Now the Stylus is very very responsive and the screen captures even the slightest of touches made by the stylus compared to the slight lag in Note 3.
ADAPTIVE FAST CHARGING IS AWESOME. 0-42 percent charge reached in 30 minutes, Full charge was achieved in 1 hour 12 minutes. Where as note 3 with USB 3.0 took 2 hours and 2 minutes to reach full charge. The battery backup is amazing. it lasts a easy 14 hours with heavy usage.
METAL BODY IS SUPERB - Hats off to Samsung for finally bringing a premium feel to the phone after years of plastic.
4G COMPATIBILTY IN INDIA IS SUPER. It works with Airtel and Indian bands 2300Mhz called TD LTE along with International 4G compatibility. The speed I got is 30 Mbps Download and 7 Mbps upload. Get a USIM and Enjoy. Since this is factory unlocked. You can use it in all International 4G bands.
TOUCHWIZ IS A MAJOR CHANGE touchwiz is very smooth and hatsoff to samsung for finally giving a lag free OS.
For phone to have these much Software enhancements and sensors and A HUGE TOO MUCH PRICE TAG OF 57-58K. we definitely WANTED A WATERPROOF AND DUST PROOF PHONE. But Samsung has let us down big time here. Why I am saying is
The heart rate sensors, The IR blaster, UV sensors need protection when we go outside. When jogging OR IN FULL SUNLIGHT OR DURING RAIN . THERE IS A HUGE POSSIBILITY OF SWEAT OR RAIN AFFECTING THE PHONE.
THE MAJOR POINT FOR ALL CUSTOMERS WHO WISH TO BUY. READ THIS VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE
--> It's coming with Snapdragon 805 32-bit and not the 64-bit Exynos 5433 processor which International markets get. I am not saying this is not fast. This is VERY FAST but The advantage of 64 bit:
1. The upcoming OS Android L needs 64 bit processors FOR 64 BIT apps. In future all apps will be redesigned for 64-bit processors. You will have to spend again to upgrade to 64 bit
2.Another big difference between 32-bit processors and 64-bit processors is the maximum amount of memory (RAM) that is supported. 32-bit systems can support a maximumof 3-4GB RAM, where as a 64-bit processor can support memory of over 4GB RAM. A 64-bit processor can run 32-bit apps without any issues but a 32-bit system can never run a 64-bit app. 64-bit is also important for apps that use graphical engineering design, video editing .ITS NOT A DRAW BACK. BUT YOU DECIDE IT FOR YOURSELVES WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU.
The snapdragon 800 or 801 users cannot find a major difference from 805. its VERY FAST AND GOOD for now but not 64-bit. International markets get exynos 64-bit 5433 processor. The antutu benchmark also rates the exynos 64-bit version of note 4 much higher than snapdragon 805 32-bit.
OIS - OPTICAL IMAGE STABILISATION( best upgrade from note 3and Wide angle selfie is a major boost. SLO-MO - slow motion is very good too.
FINGER PRINT SENSOR- works better than Galaxy S5 but needs lot of improvements in its use and utility like its Rival.
MY PLAN IS TO WAIT FOR GALAXY UNTIL THE 64BIT SNAPDRAGON 810 COMES AND 4K SCREEN COMES. Right now you won't find a big difference if you use note 3. I am an extreme user. Even I FOUND the Note 3 sufficient. Note 4 is exceptional but buy it only if you have an old phones of 2010 or 12 or you want a change OR EXTRA BUCKS. else you can wait for the next galaxy.
I DONT REGRET ONE MOMENT PURCHASING NOTE 4 BUT You might realise note 3 is more than enough at present but its only my view. If you are lg or apple user and want a new phone with new experience. I would advise you to go for note 4 immediately just to find the awesomeness of the features Note 4 offers. But for note 3 users upgrading to note 4 especially at this HUGE price is not wise. Note 3 stylus is very sufficient
MY VERDICT - NOTE 4 STANDS ABOVE ALL THE RIVALS AT PRESENT. GO FOR IT WHEN THE PRICE IS BROUGHT DOWN TO 45-50K
Note 4 is the best at present BUT READ THIS FULLY AND DECIDE

A great device might not look so great paper
By JAYAKRISHNAN Hon
I didn't buy the phone from Flipkart, hence not a certified buyer.
Nevertheless, I would like to give an unbiased review on this beautiful device.
I have never been a fan of Samsung, cuz I have not liked the look n feel of Touchwiz (Yes, this is a personal thing)
Let's get this started, today we have this device available for under 28K INR which is amazing (eventhough it was released in 2014 end).
The best display you can see in a smartphone. QHD and Super Amoled is what you can get. It's super gorgeous!
The specs might not be as glamorous as the latest devices today such as 6GB RAM and Snapdragon820. That will obviously affect the app opening speeds between these devices, but would you really care when these differences are like 0.1-0 8 sec? The huge difference in the specs on paper wouldn't be evident in regular usage.
All huge 3D games and apps work buttersmooth. There isn't that difference between the 32bit processor in Note4 and the latest 64bit ones. Maybe 2 years later we might see some minor differences, but still these things are not as serious n huge as people say.
I have read a review saying Android L and M are optimised for 64bit processors. Well, I have updated my device to M and now its running on L without a glitch. So that kind of conception is absolutely senseless.
Moving on to the Camera, this device had the best camera in 2014. But today it's not the best, obviously. But for this price, the top device like OnePlus3 and Leeco LeMax2 are the only competitors for Note4. Honestly they are not much better, but they provide slightly better results than Note4. The front camera, yes it's not amazing yet it's not disappointing too.
Coming to Video recording, I'm still amazed how Note4 beats the latest devices such as OnePlus3, Mi5 and LeMax2. It's was very surprising. I wouldn't include the Galaxy S7/edge and LG G5 devices because they cost 2 times today's Note 4's price.
Battery backup is at its best after the 6.0.1 update. You won't charge your device twice a day unless you are a gamer. And hey, we have fast charging here too. 0-60% in 30 minutes. Like you would be knowing, most of the flagship devices find it hard to keep the battery drain low during sleep. Well, touchwiz is much loaded than stock android, but somehow it doesn't hurt the battery during sleep :) .
Going into the build and design, we have the IR blaster which can work with any of your home appliances. I really thought it would be of bo use, but you'd realise the convenience once you start usin it. It doesn't have an all metal body like today's latest devices. The fingerprint sensor is fast, but you need to swipe over it (unlike just placing your finger on it in today's devices).
Another drawback I'd like to point out is that the rear camera is bumped outside, and the protective glass cover broke. So be careful since the camera glass cover can't take huge impacts. I would also like to point out that the speakers are loud enough, but since they're placed on the Rear, they get easily muffled.
Video Playback: You don't need to install a third party video player. The stock player supports all gestures and subtitles. Playing a 4K video is a breeze.
This is Galaxy Note. Its different than other android devices. Wanna know why? Bcuz this is a Note! The S Pen is simply unique. It'll make you start using it. The pen sensitivity is much better than in Note3, the Note4 has additionally a pressure sensor which enhances the handwriting. The S Pen aircommand UI is updated as you can see in a Note5
Winding it up, a Stunning Display, Great Battery backup, Good Camera and a performance (don't look at the specs) which never lets you down at this pricetag is absolutely worthy.
You will never find a device with a better display. But if you want you're device to have the 6GB RAM, sd 820processor and a latest fingerprint scanner you might look for another option.
All said, the Galaxy Note4 will not let you down evem if your friends have the latest big boys. This is just a validation that the specs simply put on paper are not what you see while using it.
Thanks for reading it, please let your response by clicking "helpful"/"not helpful". Cheers!
Still the Best Samsung and Android... ever.

I used the Note 3 for almost 10 months. The Note 4 is improved in all the areas but Is it time to upgrade?? It's your call..
The note 4 's biggest changes from Note 3
1. QUAD HD 2K (2560X1440) SCREEN IS GORGEOUS BUT 4K SCREENS ON MOBILE IS ON THE CORNER SO within next May 2015 we may get 4k screens on mobile with 64bit processors from Snapdragon so why upgrade?. So this quad HD thing is SUPERB but only for the new purchasers not for upgrades. Another minus is lack of USB 3.0 which was awesome in note 3.
SCREEN SENSITIVITY- Samsung has increased screen sensitivity 200 percent. Now the Stylus is very very responsive and the screen captures even the slightest of touches made by the stylus compared to the slight lag in Note 3.
ADAPTIVE FAST CHARGING IS AWESOME. 0-42 percent charge reached in 30 minutes, Full charge was achieved in 1 hour 12 minutes. Where as note 3 with USB 3.0 took 2 hours and 2 minutes to reach full charge. The battery backup is amazing. it lasts a easy 14 hours with heavy usage.
METAL BODY IS SUPERB - Hats off to Samsung for finally bringing a premium feel to the phone after years of plastic.
4G COMPATIBILTY IN INDIA IS SUPER. It works with Airtel and Indian bands 2300Mhz called TD LTE along with International 4G compatibility. The speed I got is 30 Mbps Download and 7 Mbps upload. Get a USIM and Enjoy. Since this is factory unlocked. You can use it in all International 4G bands.
TOUCHWIZ IS A MAJOR CHANGE touchwiz is very smooth and hatsoff to samsung for finally giving a lag free OS.
For phone to have these much Software enhancements and sensors and A HUGE TOO MUCH PRICE TAG OF 57-58K. we definitely WANTED A WATERPROOF AND DUST PROOF PHONE. But Samsung has let us down big time here. Why I am saying is
The heart rate sensors, The IR blaster, UV sensors need protection when we go outside. When jogging OR IN FULL SUNLIGHT OR DURING RAIN . THERE IS A HUGE POSSIBILITY OF SWEAT OR RAIN AFFECTING THE PHONE.
THE MAJOR POINT FOR ALL CUSTOMERS WHO WISH TO BUY. READ THIS VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE
--> It's coming with Snapdragon 805 32-bit and not the 64-bit Exynos 5433 processor which International markets get. I am not saying this is not fast. This is VERY FAST but The advantage of 64 bit:
1. The upcoming OS Android L needs 64 bit processors FOR 64 BIT apps. In future all apps will be redesigned for 64-bit processors. You will have to spend again to upgrade to 64 bit
2.Another big difference between 32-bit processors and 64-bit processors is the maximum amount of memory (RAM) that is supported. 32-bit systems can support a maximumof 3-4GB RAM, where as a 64-bit processor can support memory of over 4GB RAM. A 64-bit processor can run 32-bit apps without any issues but a 32-bit system can never run a 64-bit app. 64-bit is also important for apps that use graphical engineering design, video editing .ITS NOT A DRAW BACK. BUT YOU DECIDE IT FOR YOURSELVES WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU.
The snapdragon 800 or 801 users cannot find a major difference from 805. its VERY FAST AND GOOD for now but not 64-bit. International markets get exynos 64-bit 5433 processor. The antutu benchmark also rates the exynos 64-bit version of note 4 much higher than snapdragon 805 32-bit.
OIS - OPTICAL IMAGE STABILISATION( best upgrade from note 3and Wide angle selfie is a major boost. SLO-MO - slow motion is very good too.
FINGER PRINT SENSOR- works better than Galaxy S5 but needs lot of improvements in its use and utility like its Rival.
MY PLAN IS TO WAIT FOR GALAXY UNTIL THE 64BIT SNAPDRAGON 810 COMES AND 4K SCREEN COMES. Right now you won't find a big difference if you use note 3. I am an extreme user. Even I FOUND the Note 3 sufficient. Note 4 is exceptional but buy it only if you have an old phones of 2010 or 12 or you want a change OR EXTRA BUCKS. else you can wait for the next galaxy.
I DONT REGRET ONE MOMENT PURCHASING NOTE 4 BUT You might realise note 3 is more than enough at present but its only my view. If you are lg or apple user and want a new phone with new experience. I would advise you to go for note 4 immediately just to find the awesomeness of the features Note 4 offers. But for note 3 users upgrading to note 4 especially at this HUGE price is not wise. Note 3 stylus is very sufficient
MY VERDICT - NOTE 4 STANDS ABOVE ALL THE RIVALS AT PRESENT. GO FOR IT WHEN THE PRICE IS BROUGHT DOWN TO 45-50K
Note 4 is the best at present BUT READ THIS FULLY AND DECIDE

A great device might not look so great paper
By JAYAKRISHNAN Hon
I didn't buy the phone from Flipkart, hence not a certified buyer.
Nevertheless, I would like to give an unbiased review on this beautiful device.
I have never been a fan of Samsung, cuz I have not liked the look n feel of Touchwiz (Yes, this is a personal thing)
Let's get this started, today we have this device available for under 28K INR which is amazing (eventhough it was released in 2014 end).
The best display you can see in a smartphone. QHD and Super Amoled is what you can get. It's super gorgeous!
The specs might not be as glamorous as the latest devices today such as 6GB RAM and Snapdragon820. That will obviously affect the app opening speeds between these devices, but would you really care when these differences are like 0.1-0 8 sec? The huge difference in the specs on paper wouldn't be evident in regular usage.
All huge 3D games and apps work buttersmooth. There isn't that difference between the 32bit processor in Note4 and the latest 64bit ones. Maybe 2 years later we might see some minor differences, but still these things are not as serious n huge as people say.
I have read a review saying Android L and M are optimised for 64bit processors. Well, I have updated my device to M and now its running on L without a glitch. So that kind of conception is absolutely senseless.
Moving on to the Camera, this device had the best camera in 2014. But today it's not the best, obviously. But for this price, the top device like OnePlus3 and Leeco LeMax2 are the only competitors for Note4. Honestly they are not much better, but they provide slightly better results than Note4. The front camera, yes it's not amazing yet it's not disappointing too.
Coming to Video recording, I'm still amazed how Note4 beats the latest devices such as OnePlus3, Mi5 and LeMax2. It's was very surprising. I wouldn't include the Galaxy S7/edge and LG G5 devices because they cost 2 times today's Note 4's price.
Battery backup is at its best after the 6.0.1 update. You won't charge your device twice a day unless you are a gamer. And hey, we have fast charging here too. 0-60% in 30 minutes. Like you would be knowing, most of the flagship devices find it hard to keep the battery drain low during sleep. Well, touchwiz is much loaded than stock android, but somehow it doesn't hurt the battery during sleep :) .
Going into the build and design, we have the IR blaster which can work with any of your home appliances. I really thought it would be of bo use, but you'd realise the convenience once you start usin it. It doesn't have an all metal body like today's latest devices. The fingerprint sensor is fast, but you need to swipe over it (unlike just placing your finger on it in today's devices).
Another drawback I'd like to point out is that the rear camera is bumped outside, and the protective glass cover broke. So be careful since the camera glass cover can't take huge impacts. I would also like to point out that the speakers are loud enough, but since they're placed on the Rear, they get easily muffled.
Video Playback: You don't need to install a third party video player. The stock player supports all gestures and subtitles. Playing a 4K video is a breeze.
This is Galaxy Note. Its different than other android devices. Wanna know why? Bcuz this is a Note! The S Pen is simply unique. It'll make you start using it. The pen sensitivity is much better than in Note3, the Note4 has additionally a pressure sensor which enhances the handwriting. The S Pen aircommand UI is updated as you can see in a Note5
Winding it up, a Stunning Display, Great Battery backup, Good Camera and a performance (don't look at the specs) which never lets you down at this pricetag is absolutely worthy.
You will never find a device with a better display. But if you want you're device to have the 6GB RAM, sd 820processor and a latest fingerprint scanner you might look for another option.
All said, the Galaxy Note4 will not let you down evem if your friends have the latest big boys. This is just a validation that the specs simply put on paper are not what you see while using it.
