There are always haters of Samsung phones. Whenever a new model is released I often see all the "dislike" comments. In previous S5 and Note 3 many complained why no metal finishing ? Now there is , still complains why not fully metalled ? All other phone manufacturers mostly tried to keep their design signature so that it can be easily recognisable  as their own brand
Samsung had theirs too - is either one love or hate it...no point keep talking why it had remained so . What about Sony Xperia, iPhone, HTC, LG series - each model upgrades too quite similar in outlook. I rarely see users complain about them. So Samsung "haters" please tone down. I am not a diehard Samsung fan but we should respect their wishes how they wish to design their phones. If one doesn't like it, just stay away buying it

well said benny, whether they love it or hate it, Samsung still stay as the most relevant smarthpone maker at least on the android platform, their flagships are best all rounder performer in everything from specifications to features to software or firmware. I was a HTC fan before the Note2 era, i always hated Samsung, but i jumped because like it or not, the major reason for the jump are the specifications and features and innovations always offered by Samsung, and they are the most frequent and fastest in firmware update, and they have the largest devs support in xda. of course, there are new player in the market recently such as the Oppo and xiaomi, i hated miui, as much as i liked the Oppo but look at the ColorOS updates and xda dev support, very disappointing. this is just my honest humble opinion. tongue.gif

Worse , some of these "haters" already declared the phone as DOA already !!

doesnt matter, i will still buy by taking up a plan with maxis with a discount from RRP. and it will still be the cheapest price even after 6months down the road like my note3. tongue.gif

even though i will still be buying this note4 upon availability at maxis centre, i actually still have one thing to whine about for the sake of b****ing, they should have increase the screen size to 5.9inch. tongue.gif

I have a stupid question....nowadays trend of phone come with aluminium/metal frame like mi4 and note 4....but I have tried aluminium/metal frame but I feel it is slippery when you try to take the phone up from the table..too smooth and sometimes not nice to hold...

is me only has this feeling?
*
i have not lay my hands on the note4 yet, but since the note3 side bezel is chromed in fake metal color, it is slippery too, but i believe the note4 will be better than your iphone and etc becoz its back is made of non slip leather/rubber feel just like note3. should be pretty good combo. premium feel on bezel and grip on the back cover. smile.gif

When you put your phone on table, only the sides of phone can be touched when you want to take it up from the table..at that time, you will feel not nice to pick it up.....slippery....the leather back can't help at this time...

well, the way i hold my note3 is 2 fingers slide to the side and back and the thumb is on the screen. its fine to me. tongue.gif

i dont care whatever those ifag fanboys gonna say, but what i am seeing in the trend among the people/community around me be it friends or relatives, all are happily jumping to android from apple and never look back. Even girls opened up their mind and realise so much you can do with android. I still remember back in 2010, when i got my HTC Desire HD, everyone around me was using Iphone 3gs/4. Today, everyone around me is either android, android or android. Apple are the rare occasion to see once in a while, and even some treat their iphones as spare phone for spare line. Android may not be perfect and may need more improvement to get polished. But its features and specs are good enough to win the world. Just like how microsoft (clones pc) vs Apple's mac back then. Time will tell. Peace. biggrin.gif

yep i just think apple fan got butthurt due to bendgate issue until they willing to find anything wrong with samsung phone regardless how pointless it is laugh.gif

if you force and pry it in, anything will fit by force. but looking close up in android authority video, the gap is barely there if u didnt pry it open. personally, since the screen is not fused to the metal side frame, the metal frame is more to a premium touch so that user can feel the premium of the metal touch on Note4. the main chassis itself should be still plastic/polycarbonate which is great, it wont bend and last just like the note3. what is the point of full metal body without gap but it bends easily? tongue.gif
