errr... i'm the opposite. i prefer darker themes. amoled do justice to dark/black backgrounds. smile.gif
imho... i think edge will be around. but it'll be quite nice in its current form. display at side may not cut it. i'd think better to have the display at the top. but... that means the earphone port, etc needs to be moved. or unless Samsung decides to bundle with good stereo BT earphones and eliminate earphones port. smile.gif

I am bored with dark black themes, so I want white. Hehe

Sure, phones like the Galaxy S4, S5, and Note 3 came equipped display modes designed to make things look more 'natural', but truth be told, in reality, those modes never did much in order to fix the issue of AMOLED's overly cold and greenish color character.

cold and greenish... i'd assume means blue and green.

hmmm... my experience with AMOLED is more on the warmer colours -- yellow, orange, red. i thought these were the colours that make the screen look "brighter" and more colourful???

Prefer in between. White will use more juice from the battery.

probably kinda obvious, but thought it'd still be good to share..

note series isn't really a single-handed device. after all, it's got the s-pen and the s-pen is what makes note series stand out and be a unique phablet.

AMOLED always greenish until Note 3 start better. In S5 it is really great already. But default color preset always much punchy color and out from real color range. I do like it except the Galaxy Tablet S seems over or maybe the screen too big make me feel headache. i can accept AMOLED but I still much prefer IPS LCD as of now. I hope Note 4 is as review mention accurate color and won't feel weird in basic mode and not over saturation in auto mode.

This is standard in AMOLED already and Samsung will continue using it diamond pattern. It is hardly seen the different at FHD via naked eyes and completely unnoticed in QHD.

Why not, even 6.44" Xperia Z Ultra I use previously also can fit in my jeans.

Note 4 only 5.7"

honestly, this type of Q is hard to answer.

if you wear those tight jeans... like those GT girls, even a small phone pun susah mau masuk la...

me... these days, i use cargo pants. banyak pocket for gadgets. smile.gif

but regular jeans... also fine. i have no issues putting the phone into jeans.

wow... seriously, i always thought the fake colours was due to the warmer colours like RED, YELLOW and ORANGE. never noticed it is greenish/ blueish. been using note 1 and then note 2... never noticed it. and i watch quite a fair bit of movies... heh heh... well, maybe like i always said... i'm not that fussy... but i do like the colours on AMOLED rather than those on non-AMOLED. when i look at the non-AMOLED, they look abit 'faded'.

Your eye already use to AMOLED and you though that is correct color but it is not. The Note 1 is superb greenish, Note 2 don't compare ok la. smile.gif

with the advent of Tab S, the over-saturated super amoled display has been significantly toned down (to more natural colors). but not to the extent of looking wash out. most likely note 4 would follow this trend.

Samsung's Gear VR headset will reportedly cost $199
http://www.theverge.com/2014/9/7/6118293/s...r-headset-price

Samsung's Gear VR virtual reality headset will cost $199, according to a report from VentureBeat, although that doesn't include the cost of the Galaxy Note 4, which works as the headset's screen. The Oculus-powered Gear VR, officially announced Wednesday, is designed to wrap around the Galaxy Note 4. The headset is wireless and powered by the phone.

Oculus also said this week that the consumer version of the Rift headset will cost between $200 and $400. On the surface, that sounds like the two headsets are competitively priced, but you have to account for the cost of a Note 4. An official price for that hasn't been announced, although it's rumored to be $799, or $299 with a contract.

usd199 seems like a decent price.

Then again, standalone Rift headset, as per article above, may start from USD200. getting standalone means at least the VR set is not dependent on something (the Gear VR currently works only with Note 4).

However, advantage of Gear VR is that its wireless.

how useful is this? personally for me... not useful. but if i had to choose between this or edge, i'd go with this instead of edge (sorry note edge...)

edit 1: ouch, no audio... will need own earphones plugged into note4... what the...?!? tongue.gif

I think the edge don't have aluminum side also. I heard some comment is plastic. I more see more feel also.

For me too earlier to buy such extra edge phone.

The Gear VR price make me interesting on it now. Haha!
