Plus :
- The design is really impressive and so is the build quality, but the gap around the display takes a few points away
- Display is as good as they come
- Battery life is excellent
- Superb performance, proper benchmark champion
- Audio quality is excellent
- 16MP camera is a stellar performer, OIS works like a charm
- 4K videos are the best in business
- Loudspeaker loudness is a rare excellent
The Galaxy Note 4 impressed us with its look and feel, and flexed
some hardware muscle while at it. The 16MP OIS camera didn't disappoint
either - to say the least. The battery life was pretty awesome too,
while the user interface has been nicely polished and stripped off of a
lot of clutter.
The heart-rate and blood oxygen sensors will always have limited use
but, as the S Health app improves, they'll be getting closer to
realizing their full potential. The fingerprint sensor is also a welcome
addition over the Galaxy Note 3 for those who would want a little extra
security without having to type long passwords.
We particularly like the new S Pen features and the improved
multi-tasking, which extend the Galaxy Note 4's advantage in terms of
productivity. Indeed, there's no other smartphone in the market that can
quite match the latest Samsung phablet as a productivity tool.
But, as we said in the beginning, a flagship risks being remembered
for its failings rather than its achievements. We didn't quite find any
of the Galaxy Note 4 shortcomings bad enough to potentially go viral in
the wrong way.
