Galaxy Note 4by Samsung
PROS
- The screen on the Note 4 can't be beat. Big, bright, vivid, and clear. What more can you ask for?
- The S Pen improvements are welcomed for those who want to push multitasking boundaries on a mobile device.
- The cameras focus quickly and take clear pictures on a consistent basis.
CONS
- Samsung is known for its overbearing UI on top of Android, and the Note 4 is no exception.
- A cheap, plastic build is still present despite Samsung's efforts to add a touch of metal.
- Multitasking features can slow down the device and introduce sluggishness when opening apps.

Video watching is where it really impresses, though. Whites are exceptionally white, blacks are gorgeously deep, and bigger is generally better when it comes to viewing pleasure.

That said, the new Note has an even bigger screen and I can still hold the device without hand fatigue (in which my hand gets tired after holding the phone for a while) or accidentally dropping it.

As someone who enjoys the physical act of writing, I love the Note 4's stylus skills. However, if the act of putting digital pen to paper baffles you, skip this handset in favor of other big-screen phones that potentially cost less and perform core tasks just as well

Samsung has tried to make the removable plastic cover feel more premium by giving it a leather effect finish, but there's still no fooling your hand with that unmistakable texture.

It’s an excellent phone inside and out, the first Note that combines design, power, and performance in one package. Samsung knows how to take advantage of a large screen — even more so than Apple — and with a pen and some software tweaks and a ridiculous number of pixels, it does just that.
I've always found Samsung's S Pen more of a novelty than a truly useful tool. That changes with the Note 4.

The S-Pen was particularly great. And, look, I’m a stylus skeptic, but the Note 4 has me semi-convinced.

Samsung has always focused on the power of the Note and its additional screen size as a gateway to getting more done, and with the changes this year it's one step closer to realizing that goal.
The Note 4 still lacks that all-important mobile essential: an intuitive, cleanly designed user interface.

Yeah, the Note 4 is a big phone, but it's worth noting that it's really not that much bigger than the iPhone 6 Plus.

So far in 2014, we've only got the Galaxy Note 4. Samsung may be the originator of the phablet, but with this new model, it isn't doing much to push the product category forward.
With the Note 4, I'm left a bit annoyed by the same multitasking slowness and hiccups that I found on the S5, too.
