@darkangelss6sic6
10 жыл бұрын
PeanutFTW AVA No. Many people do. I appreciate both aspects. But many people as well like accurate colors. Plus as someone who studies displays and is factual with her stuff, plus adding in that in the past the claimed accuracy was still quite high in gamma...it's an important thing to point out. But you are far from alone. The best part about it is that you get your way no matter which you prefer. Very saturated or very accurate. A gamma error of 0.2-0.4 that she described is actually very small. Colors in that mode are only very minutely saturated and I'm sure it's only some hues more than others. Plus the near spot on white balance. Most LCD's intentionally have a higher gamma setting than that. And even the Iphone has a small gamma error and a less accurate white balance. So basically the Note 4 is the most saturated or accurate to the users liking. Plus it's also basically is the best in sunlight next to the Nokia 8o8 PurView. Only when you put it in auto brightness and it's in bright light though. The maximum brightness the user can set it to without auto brightness is 100-300 nits away from it's actual full brightness depending on how bright it is outside. Plus it uses up to 40% less power than even most 1080p 5 inch LCD displays.

So what you are saying is as expected the display color accuracy is not perfect. However it is extremely accurate and fairly evenly calibrated. More accurate than even most LCD'S tend to be. So the claim that it is basically the most advanced smart phone display and very accurate in basic mode is true. Having a small gamma error of 0.2 and at points 0.4.

I'm very much surprised at the lacking of such reviews. Not only do the comparisons barely exist, but exynos reviews are also few and far. I'm also very interested to see a battery comparison of both of them before and after the update. I'm surprised at the lacking if this as well. Most people that even touch these subjects are not presenting it in a very informed way. Though I was surprised to find that the adreno 420 had a lead over the mali t760. I thought that was much more powerful. Though it is not a large lead and obvious the Exynos cpu cores are the real winners and should fair even better if they get 64bit enabled in android l

Yin Bunhay Yes and no. Technically the Exynos has a better cpu. And the GPU is only a tad behind. And MOST LIKELY the Exynos will open up 64bit when Note 4 gets an Android L update and then it will perform even better over time. And on the small chance it does not there is a decent chance a hack might. But the Snapdragon has somewhat better app support sometimes. And it generally has much better hack/developer support. And the Gpu is a little stronger. As far as battery life goes I assume the Exynos is a little better, but I cannot factually back that up. Though I'm sure they are similar.

Kevin C There is a way to make the S-Pen work on Cyanogenmod, losing the awesome multitasking would suck, but it's not that big of a deal since I don't see how I would be using this feature too often. If you don't really need the S-Pen *features* there is no reason not to switch to Cyanogenmod, it's hard to beat the stock Android experience (unless it's HTC's Sense that we're talking about, it's absolutely incredible and it's definitely up there, well, at least in my opinion), and Cyanogenmod is pretty much stock Android with some stuff.

Dude you just have to disable flipboard briefing and the one handed mode works just as normal. Works exactly like the note 3 on my note 4 at least. Never noticed a difference. The Note 3 windowed mode I sort of just had a button that launched the window right from the homescreen without the pen. But i agree, the new way is far FAR improved. Smart select tip: collect your flight reference info from the email app, collect your hotel contact info, adress and booking reference from the browser, go into Maps and find your hotel there, grab the nearby area and jot down things directly on the map you want to visit nearby or just to make it easier to find, like circleing that church for a reference point, then grab the weather info from the web for the duration of your stay, then open S Note, and just drag it all down there, arrange it as you want, send it as a PDF to your fellow travellers and have them print it out or whatever. Additionally, from the multitasking bar (hold backbutton) and the recent apps carousel you can launch windowed mode versions instead of multiwindow versions by pressing instead of dragging in the multitasking bar, and for the carousel you just drag it to the homescreen. Just a quick tip.

It is soooo annoying hearing objections about size of the phone. "It is too big and I can't reach all corners of the screen". Get smaller phone! And DON'T review such phones! Too many biased ideas find their way into reviews! The trend towards big screen phones is a very good one! I would hate to get back to small screen smartphones. The reason they are called smartphones is because of their ability to do more and especially to display more on the screen!

Nice video Erica. Some things I would like to see covered are as follows. First and foremost, application launch times. One thing that drives me insane with the note 3 is how long some things take to launch, ie the dialer. I would love to see a side by side comparison with say the iPhone or moto x. Another thing would be speaker performance, both db levels and tone as compared to phones like the iPhone/m8/s5/moto x. If possible some measurements from the DAC, but an objective overview as compared to other phones would be nice(using a nice pair of headphones). Just my thoughts, your reviews are by far the best on the web. I look forward to your analysis. Thanks.
@darkangelss6sic6

Stickbo I heard for some that the dialer took an extra second to open. For the Note 4 though overall it is very snappy. It even ties and beats the iphone in most speed comparisons. The speaker is definitely one of the loudest. It is measured between 82 and 85 decibels depending on the review. There was a video on youtube comparing it to the Note 3's. Both at level 10 volume. The Note 4 was a lot louder and cleaner. Even when the Note 3 was raised to level 12 the Note 4 was still a louder and a lot cleaner. Some people say the Note 2 still had better bass though. I don't know. However even though it is much more clear than the Note 3 and much louder the video said it still had the same range....just cleaner in those ranges. Some people say at that loudest setting it has a bit of distortion, but I'm sure that will depend on what you are playing and you can easily turn it down one or two notches and then still have great volume and clarity. The M8 and Z3 reach around 72-76DB. I don't know the exact. They are actually fairly evenly matched. most give a slight edge to the M8 in the volume and sound. Which is impressive for the Z3 comparing it to the Z2 and that it still retains the water proof membrane covering the speakers. Obviously they provide deeper sound for having two speakers. And I think that they more than likely have a little more bass. I don't know which has better range of the three, though the Note 4 takes volume, while the other two take deeper sound. For headphones....We know the M8 is basically a top performer and the Note 4 seems to be very close behind. Followed by Z3. I don't know the true full specifics of the headphones especially and also am waiting for such a comparison and would love to know more about the DAC capabilities. Especially the Exynos with Wolfsan.

darkangelss6sic6 I am struggling to find answers to this basic question about loudness. Probably like you,Ive been to many sites reading reviews trying to nail down the overall loudness of the "ringing" portion of the note 4. It seems many reviewers are very complacent in differentiating the difference between sound quality and loudness.I have a job where noise levels are higher than say,your average office type environment.I am looking for a phone that when an incoming call comes in,rings quite loudly to cut through the ambient noise. GSM arena rated the Note 4 @ 81.6db..which earned an excellent rating..however on Phone Arena it earned a n 85db rating!!!..thats a HUGE difference.Also,some reviewers are saying that the ringer level loudness is low??? Can you see my frustration? Im set to pick this phone up in the next week so maybe i wont get a good ,solid answer?

No wonder the market responded and Samsung took quite a blow (their CEO halved his salary ,but it's just a gesture because his compensations and stock options remain the same).

So, coming from Note 3, in brief: I don't like the "white gradient", I don't like the task button instead of the menu button. Camera is nicer, the launcher is dull as always (that's why I use TSF shell 3D). Higher resolution is nice but I have to see it. The 5 connectors on the back are interesting (2 are for inductive charger coil). I think this is not enough to upgrade from my Note 3 which I love. A refresh lacking screen quality (that white/yellow/green gradient is awful!). Oh, and I love you, Erica.

Gonna be honest, after a great developer on XDA came up with an S5/Note 3 TW hybrid ROM for the Sprint Note 3, the display is greatly improved on my device. No idea why but it is better than stock TW and is preventing me from moving to the Note 4 for now. The colors are better and images are crisp and much cleaner than even TW based ROMs. Maybe the N3 just needed a little tweak to get a better looking display since, of course, the hardware cannot change. Thanks for the honest insight.

The note 3 im using right now is a 32gb iv got my note 4 coming in 2 days! Weh hey lol i was wanting the edge note 4 though but its prooving hard to find in the UK sk the base line model will have to do! I sound like it's a big disappointment lol but no im still happy to have the note 4 iv loved note 3 its still in perfect condition but i didn't realise how ugly the page effect on the bezel is lol it really ain't much to look at eh iv ordered the black one again ny 3 was nice and professional looking in black! Im worried about this gorilla glass 4 its not ment to be as strong as the Gorilla 3 in the drop tests but hope its as tough as the note 3

You can use USB 2.0 cables on the USB 3.0 port on the Note 3. Many think this is why they skipped USB 3.0, because people did think they needed a USB 3.0 cable, but 2.0 fits also. People need to research their phones better

I used my NOTE3 for clipping videos. Can you play around with that on the NOTE4? CPU power is my draw to a phone, but battery is cool too.

Hi. I like it so far but in cons(probably not a huge deal for some) I must say : 1)Despite having a S805 snapdragon Samsung flagship does not allow hardware decoding of H265 (HEVC) videos.my 4k videos play better in software mode than on my note 3 but it is far from perfect. Hope Samsung will fix this in firmware. 2)USB audio doesn't work with the smartdock 3)No AC-3 support since Note 1. So a lot of third party player for VR won't have sound and I do no Want to reencode my videos 4)Eraser mode for camera is gone (Too bad it was great) 5) No USB 3.0 it was really handy some times (! I have a PC) I could live without FM radio on the phone... And If it is all for licensing issues ,I would have gladly pay a little more.

Samsung never stops Cheating Indians - Selling Cheap Exynos by displaying US Snapdragon Versions Yet another act of shameless cheating providing vague specifications by Samsung India. They always sell the Exynos-based version in Indian market for the same price of Snapdragon-based US edition. Exynos 5433 in Note4 Indian edition is not good and comes with the same: 1.3GHz-1.9GHz combo as was found in Note3. If you look at Samsung India website, they mention the processor as 2.7GHz with a small disclaimer - it may differ by country and carrier. The truth is, they have only launched Exynos-stupid version here which heats up and lags a lot. Here is the best part: if you go to any showroom, the model that they have put on display will always be the Snapdragon US edition, and when you buy it, they will always sell you Exynos version in the box. You can go to Settings->About phone and compare the Model Number. You will be surprised to see that Samsung is CHEATING us all. So, keep yourself informed and dont buy the cheap, stupid version of S5 and Note 4 for a huge price. Otherwise, you will later regret your decision. Go for Sony or LG, they don't commit such FORGERY.

Hi, I am quite confident that you Erica once you have finished with trying the Galaxy Note you will forget about the Iphone 6+...even if you have a MacBookAir Audio quality is better on Iphone but for all others aspects it is a tie(Camera), or a huge advantage for Note 4(Quickcharging,multiwindow,spen,...) Personnaly i think Note 4 looks more premium than Iphone 6+ I am waiting for the SCover and the Samsung Gear VR and yes i do regret usb 3.0 because i am PC and it worked fine for me ;) Let's not forget Nokia HereBeta is here for Android phones!

Hi Erica, I love your reviews and think you're the best! My question is. Have you ever made the IN DEPTH video on the LG G3? I love my G3 and have been looking forward to your review! I've seen all your comparison videos and FIRST IMPRESSION videos on the G3 but I haven't seen your final FULL review. I apologize if I've just missed it! Love the Note 4 and will probably be my next phone! Thank you for all you do!

thanks for putting out this first impressions video. was definitely anticipating your review of the note 4 over any other youtube reviewer. you really get into all the important details especially the displays on devices; all the stuff i really want to know before making a purchase. i like that you are willing to point out the flaws, and critique the shortcomings of devices, as consumers we need to know the cons and be able to weigh them between devices. i got a note 2 based on your review and i am probably going to get a note 4 eventually. thanks for the discerning and detailed reviews!

That side menu feature is useful! I hope they port that to the Note 3. In my Note 3 I'm always accidentally triggering the small screen feature all the time while I'm using the Swype keyboard, which uses similar gestures

I like the new Galaxy Note 4 but what i don't like is that Samsung has taken away so many features ! Finger air view, group play,reading mode,smart scroll, smart pause, smart rotation,air jump, air call/accept,air browse, humidity sensor and DLNA (unbelievable ! ) is no longer present ! They also changed "Quick check" . It no longer has the pretty graphics, instead it just opens the Lockscreen !

I HATE the Note 4 camera. Before processing, VGA pictures and 16 mp pictures both look the same! WTF SAMSUNG? And the front camera lags badly. The only time it doesn't lag is when you are choosing the wide selfie mode.Go on, try it for yourself. The pictures before and after processing look grainy on the Note 4 screen but look fine on a PC screen. Why is this?

Excellent review, I've subscribed. I like your attention to detail. It's strange how I haven't seen you before since I do watch many tech related videos. Perhaps you should do a few collaborations. I had to laugh at one thing though. At 13.20 you say you are to have a FULL review. What was this then????

Hands down best review of the note 4 I've seen, and I've been watching a bunch lately.. Rlly interested in this phone now. You have a knack for noticing the fine details that a lot of other reviewers omit. I think you've found a great niche in doing that. Keep up the great work.

Just get a iPhone 6 plus...half the specs in every dept. But preforms way better. Why, you do the math. 8 mp better than 16, 1.4 GHz better than 2.7 GHz ...when apple gets to 16 mp humans will be flying. Apple to Samsung is like rocket scientist to chimps.

Great Review. But like you said the real test is about 2 weeks out. I plan on upgrading, but don't seem like I really need to although I WANT an iPhone 6 plus. I have a Note 3, no flaws works fine. But man I would like to have that Note 4 also. I do most of my work on Apple products so syncing is nearly flawless. I just wished the iPhone 6+ came with some sort of pen. If I end up getting it, I'm still carrying my Note 3 with me.

Hi Erika, you can can actually do finger scan sideways with your thumb so you can unlock with one hand. But it's still just as clunky and prefer to iPhone method overall.

Thanks for going in depth about the OIS vs EIS especially for video. You're the only reviewer that's mentioned it and video is one of most important smartphone functions to me. I have a 6+ right now and I was thinking of switching to the Note 4, however the Hyperlapse app on the iPhone is making it really hard to switch, especially knowing that it might not ever come to Android because of Google's API access not allowing for it. Hopefully that'll change. Then all phones can have amazing video stabilization and time lapses:)

Great Job Erica!! You're definitely the best reviewer on KZitem. I would like to know how well the 'IR Blaster' works, as most reviewers leave it out. Also, I'm disappointed they didn't install two stereo speakers. How does the speaker sound? Better, worse, or the same as the Note 3 &/or Note 2?

So you were complaining about having all the USB 3.0 cables lying around for your Note 3 that wouldn't fit your other devices... The USB 3.0 port actually is a 2.0 port with a little added thing to it(the right side of the port - looking at the bottom of the phone with the screen up - is 2.0 size), so you could have just used the 2.0 cables you had for your other devices rather than buying the very specific 3.0 cable!

I love mine(expect waiting for lollipop)! its toughly different than old cheap Samsung phones (and expensive :|) i used to hate samsung but it changed my mind! But anyway, i feel with s6 samsung screwed it up all over again :(! i actually got it as a gift it it wasn't for that i would never ever buy it! i mean i loved it in spec but always thought (its smasung, its gonna but awful like my 2 old Samsung phones) BTW: mine doesn't have the galaxy note 4 on back! and no matter how fast i swipe fingerprint scanner recognizes my finger (infact its faster than iPhone imo, but i wash my hands often!)

Come on Erica, don't know what you're complaining about. Video looked good to me. Pretty stable in both respects. Is it perfect? No, of course not but it's good enough I think for most. Really liking the note 4, not a phablet man myself but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on the S6 next year. It'll be a monster of a phone with hardly any weak points. Having said that there's still touchwiz but hey let's hope Samsung, just as they've finally joined the premium segment this year with the alpha and note 4, join also the grown up UI segment next year with android L. I really want to change from Sony smartphones. It's one step forward and two steps back with that company and I've grown really tired of it.

+Erica Griffin First , thank you for the awsome review. I'm waiting for the full one as well. Second: about the fingerprint scanner - I've watched in another review that you can use it with your thumb aside, not only as Samsung require it. I think you should check that out. Also , please check out these audio recording options with the 3 microphones, that Samsung are bragging with. I would like to hear your opinion about it. Thank you and keep doing these awsome reviews.
