I think because the sp is thin so it can bend to stick at the screen surface. Most TG sp are arround 0.25mm iinm

Thats another concern. Why only they have so thin? From the video, it looks like those plastic SP. I'll need to get one to see if it's really glass =p

My note 4 review after 4 months. Jumped from Xperia Z.
- Before Root got about 3.5hours SOT. After root + Greenify + change browser to CM browser = 6 - 7 hours SOT.
- TBH, this is my first Samsung and I find Touchwiz to be feature packed and snappy. The exynos chip and 3gb ram can be thanked for that. Gain root and remove the bloatware.
- Note4 confirm has signal issues. A user claiming to be a network technician said N4 was underwhelming in their tests. However, just because you don't have a full bar, doesn't necessarily mean the data speed is bad. Just means signal may change from H+ to 3G easier. I found by selecting only WDCMA/GSM instead with LTE, I have a slightly more stable signal. Overall disappointed this area of phone.
- I use celcom line and have not encountered drop calls like some digi customers.
- Phone heat during heavy usage is fine by my standards, try holding an Xperia Z while playing a graphic intensive game,  now that is HOT.
- if u really want to save batt, stop using Chrome browser.  Dolphin and CM browser really makes a difference. Just needs getting used to. 
- If you have poor signal issues, advisable not to use a bumper with metal or aluminium. It is known to affect signal reception. First made known in xda forums with the verus iron shield.
- Camera is a freaking beast. My most loved feature in this phone. If free, will post some photos. In fact others should to.
- Love the Spen. Use it to make notes and have a lot of fun making doodles on photos of friends.
- Bluetooth works well, listening beat music via wireless earphones while shopping in Tesco is priceless.
- Screen quality is really amazing. If you upgrading from 2/3 ++ year old phone, be prepared to pamper your eyes.
- For me sound from rear speaker is pretty ok and loud but only when it's not laid on its back or covered up.
- For a big phone, the vibration when phone rings or from notifications is not strong enough.
- I find the autobrightness sensor to be not fast enough to detect changes to ambient lighting but it definately has a great wide range of brightness to select.
- Fast charging is OMG! Where have you been all this while?
- If you are facing buggy IR blaster, uninstall all updates to get it to work again.
- Really cool mobile multimedia consumption device - games, movies, shows, music.
That's all I can think off. If you can afford this phone, and live in an area with good network reception, then go ahead and buy this phone.

I give up adi.

Reverting back to note 2 for now...

Cuz of digi and n4 problem...

my first smart phone with digi was htc one x. the line was so bad and the internet was so slow, i jump ship to maxis the moment my contract was over. when they tried to keep me by saying they were going to get LTE, i had no confidence in them anymore...

although maxis is so expensive, i dont mind paying more...

truth is, i jumped from maxis to digi because of 2 years bill shock. i went to digi and was happy initially as i was only paying like RM50-60 per month for internet and calls. then gatal go sign note 2 package. rm88/month. ok all good.

then now 148/month signed with note 4. but then suddenly digi became crap. cant call out, cant receive calls, call out no ringing tone, just silence. try call ppl, immediately call ended.

internet also like haram.

haih

maxis has no bill shock now. good time to switch back lol.

Hahaha. But I am hoping phone price will not exceed RM3000. If it happen, thanks to GST and also Malaysia's dropping currency. Sure at that time will have to let go Samsung Note series if price keep rising every year. But I am expecting Note 5. If Note 5 is better than Note 4 and Note 5 does not exceed RM2600 next year sure I will upgrade. biggrin.gif
And my friend keep persuading me to buy iPhone and keep making joke me using Samsung. How to make a comeback to them? They are always so proud with their restricted phone and how it much more expensive than my Note 4.

If your friend thinks his over expensive and restricted iphone is good, then don't bother. They are too blinded to realized that they acknowledged the down sides of an iphone and yet they still like it. No point talking to them. A crazy man will never admit that he is crazy
