That's why gotta wait for reviews, missed out on that thread in XDA tongue.gif but it seems promising, as long as I dont need to plug in to powerbank or charger at least twice a day like my G3 sweat.gif

This is my own opinion, hope i dont offend anyone tongue.gif What's the point of using power saving modes and all if you are using a smartphone to be connected all the time. Most power saving mode I have seen disable data or only enable it on certain times. I know we can set it, but sometimes it don't really work. So i have never enabled any ultra power saving mode, only those saving mode when my battery went below certain threshold laugh.gif
*
for me being connected all the time is also one of reasons for smartphone usage. however not everyone has a power plug/powerbank laying around to charge up on emergency.. 3k+ battery is a large battery, howver those on long flights or drive would need all bits of battery life they can save.
this is for me.. hope i didn't offend you.. smile.gif

On page 5 one of the poster noted that the OP shot alot of 4K videos on the Note 4 and will test again.  sweat.gif

he really pushes the phone ability..
biggrin.gif
12 hours is considerable for a lot of screen usage.

Few things about this device.

-Somehow feels warm while doing light activities, tho the weather most likely is the culprit.

- Screen looks nice, but that said, I honestly cant tell the difference between the note 3's screen and this. 2k overhyped I guess.

- As for outdoor screen visibility, I'd give it a 9/10

- Camera's mediocre when taking indoor photos, but brilliant outdoor.

- The finger print scanner is accurate provided you do it the way Samsung wants biggrin.gif

- 4G reception comparable with htc m8

- Smooth animations, although it might be too early to tell.

- The faux back seems nice to touch, but the metal bezels are a tad sharp.

-  Battery is still draining, but it should settle down after a few days of usage.

- Wifi will now swap in between 2.4g to 5g to provide better stability.
That said, I dont understand why put a 2k reso screen on a phone when your home page is still limited to 4 icons a row.
*
-can you test with 1080/720/480p videos? would like to know if there would be pixelation for videos.
-how mediocre is the indoor? does it have a lot of noise?
-can post current battery drain?

QUOTE(Eddx @ Oct 8 2014, 04:05 PM)
thinking of using the note naked, of course with glass sp applied first tongue.gif

no more naked phone for me.
learnt a hard lesson on my z

QUOTE(Eddx @ Oct 8 2014, 04:09 PM)

QUOTE(bitcomet79 @ Oct 8 2014, 04:09 PM)
wish i could but not suitable for the dusty & grimy environment that i'm working at....sure will turn yellowish in no time coz i love the white colour of note 4  tongue.gif
and of course glass sp is a must for me too.... nod.gif
*
at least you're only have the issue of discoloration.
mine afraid would crack the screen when put to pocket..
Spigen Tough Armor/Neo Hybrid casing then..

QUOTE(Eddx @ Oct 8 2014, 05:02 PM)
According to that link it's really written Original SME selling at RM2599  sweat.gif need to go 1G to confirm

QUOTE(oldKyoo @ Oct 8 2014, 05:38 PM)
1) Its pretty clear on 1080 and 720p. as for 480, you can open your phone's utube and try 480 coz thats exactly how it looks like. There are close to zero benefits with a 2k screen.

2) The camera seems to be the same as the note 3, you'd get grainy at times.

3) I do not encourage first day battery monitoring since I am running on the same battery charge since factory but here you go

well considereing it's a 2k screen,
the battery life can be expected..

QUOTE(aquilaTE @ Oct 8 2014, 05:48 PM)
I'm pretty sure it's typo since other parts said "imported" and warranty 2 year by one gadget.

they already updated the page it seems.
previously the same link was written with Original SME.

Damn good battery life. My nexus 5 can barely reach 3 hours SOT on  a full charge.

suprisingly it's a well better result than all previous galaxy phones.
usually from that height it's already a full crack all over the screen.
tough front screen indeed.

Now a day customer requirement is getting higher and higher. Last time it only has this drop test. Now there is bend test.. in the future we may have spot load test, tekkando/shear test, nuclear test, pull test, inside microwave test, deepest water test, fire test, explosion proof test, extreme low temperature test and so on....
The phone is getting tougher even tougher than those professional SLR camera in the future.
*
i would wonder how would the nuclear test goes..
haha...


QUOTE(edtai @ Oct 9 2014, 07:30 AM)
Yes.. The priced are almost the same for S5 an Note4. Why we need to go to S5 when Note has so much features.
*
s5=waterproof.
if note 4 has a waterproofing..
surely it beats all phone altogether..
haha..

QUOTE(Arvinaaaaa @ Oct 9 2014, 08:26 AM)
haha...its a must bro...to keep the excitement.....

anyways, high chance that i wont be getting it on the 15 or the 17th...because i want to get the case first from spigen b4 i buy the note 4

so maybe a week after launch.  biggrin.gif

edit: unless got freebies to first 100 customers, then ill go on first selling day
*
previously during alpha/s5 launch did they have freebies?
QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Oct 9 2014, 10:01 AM)
Haha! lol

hopefully they give free gear..if yes, i will be going as early as 6am to line up.

samsung mobile malaysia has yet to confirm the venue and date (either 15 or 17 oct)

if they really giving away free gear..
as mentioned, i'm ready to take a flight to KL on that day..

his slow mo drop test are also a must.

QUOTE(edtai @ Oct 9 2014, 01:02 PM)
if there are areas iphone 6+ is better than Note4, the author will put up the performance chart. If there are areas that Note is better than iphone+, the author will say they are both good. It is very obvious that Note is so much better in photography and videoing with the higher camera spec but not mentioned at all in the comparison. The HDR comparison is missing also. What is the crap comparison and bias to Apple.
*
well they don't want to risk being banned from apple's PR program..
haha..
