S4 & Note 10.1 2014 Edition

So I recently sold my Note 2 ahead of the Note 3 launch and I am debating whether or not to get the GS4 and a Note 10.1 2014 edition tab instead of just the Note 3. I feel that the tab will do everything the Note 3 will do just not make phone call and the GS4 will be just as good as any Note out there but in a smaller form. I just played with the Note 3 in store and it seems longer yet narrower.
Thoughts??

What do you want a Note device for? For me it is a business productivity tool and so I use a Note 8 for serious note taking and Note 3 for quick notes and as a plannet/organiser and as a great media device. The Note range is about business and personal use which is why the Note 3 and new 10.1 have Knox.

What is Knox?
I dont really use the Note too much for taking notes itself but I did enjoy the screen real estate. I forgot to mention that I will carrying around the 10.1 with me while at work / school........

If not Note 4, what's your phone?

What phone would you pick if the Note series isn't in existence?
S5?
Nexus?
M8?
LG?

I would've gone with the Nexus line. Plenty of support, timely updates from google and just a great phone in general heh

Samsung?!Why and what now???

What and why Samsung you do this?
Until thill now we wait and was happy for new flagship release but now Samsung you just counthing money and sold phone?!
When you release few years ago phone they have new function and beaty now older phone have more choise then new.
When you see Note 4 vs Note 5 you will see more on Note 4 then on Note 5,small difference between this brothers.
I have S1,2,3,4 and then I go on Note line but after Note 5 I ask my self what now to buy when change Note 4???
#OFFICIAL No Note 5 for Europe,one more dissapoiting.
Best regards guys!!!

3000mah battery!!!! Samsung better fire som people!
Well . Thanks samsung for loosing a dedicated costumer!

Agreed. For the first time in 4 years, i missed live stream. Not interested at all. Samsung is just pushing their loyal customers away.

Bad bad and bad nothing new.
For me bigest dissapoiting is displey 518 ppi note 4 515 ppi and battery 3000mah note 4 3200mah,Samsung going down,self touchdown,NOCKOUT.

LG 4 pro looks interesting... They compared to iPhone 6 plus... Which has more memory and with the new iPhone coming out apple could kill Samsung.... And iPhone updates are way faster.. Goodbye Samsung or or may keep my note 4 for another year by then I may get update to 5.1.1...and they thanked loyal fans.... And they listened to what we want?

I agree man
Samsung please leave glass................ use metal or plastic but leave glass
I noticed that for the first time there is no difference in design or materials used for building both the Galaxy S6 & Note 5, same design & same stupid glass.
look to the design of S4 & Note 3 ........... there is a difference
S5 & Note 4 ........... there is a difference
This year I think Samsung missed & made such a stupid step back & it will cost Samsung a lot
Say No For Glass

Agree but Samsung made too many mistakes now like battery etc

Most likely the note 4 will be a rare piece! It will retain its price due to Note 5 epic fail.

Probably not a rare piece, but it just makes the Note 5's value proposition look that much worse!
Note 4s are going for about $300-400 right now and do a whole lot more despite being last year's model; why not just keep buying them? Perhaps Samsung will get the hint when last year's model outsells this year's model by a significant margin.
As for me, I'm not even going to sell mine; I'll just keep rocking it 'til it dies.

Does not really matter, since catering to the sheep gives greater margins than attracting geeks.

You said it.
Suggest Samsung should come up with 3 Note models every year and deliberately tag them officially as below:
Samsung Note Classic
Samsung Note Sheep
Samsung Note Floosy Edge
Never change the Classic model on the core features, yes improve and evolve the design.
For Sheep and Floosy variants, go and fsck yourself and do whatever it takes to keep the drunk suites happy.

If they wanted to carry experiments, they should have done on edge version only. Damn why they don,t realize that note users want bigger battery n microsd.

Because the note users you talk about would probably buy less units than sheep that just don't care about tech specs .

Some more like hole damn department they seriously goof and just got lazy with the note 5 build . Instead they just use galaxy s6 plus mold and just reversed the screen.

Agree with this thread. I have had the note 2, 3, and just bought the 4. Bought the note 4 only because of what they were doing with the 5. Unless they get rid of the glass back I won't buy another one. I love my note phones but don't like the direction they are going now with glass back, non removable battery, and no SD card. If they wanted something premium seems like they could have gone with leather like LG or some other premium material that would at least let the back be removable.
Interested in the LG g4 pro but the display in their LG line doesn't seem to be as vibrant as Samsung's but will have to see what it looks like when it comes out. BUT for now will enjoy my note 4 as long as I can.

You didn't miss anything on the live stream. It was pathetic, almost embarrassing. The only thing worth a mention was the faster wireless charging. It was a real yawn fest.

Galaxy Note 5 Indian thread

Hey Guys
Note 5 is now official and many of us are excited to get it in hands inspire of some of its short comings specially likeno SD card
But its a gorgeous device and a must have for phone lovers like me
Let's discuss its availability in India pricing etc
As per some review s it won't be available in UK but in US and Asian markets and I am quite sure Samsung will release it in India after all they got lots of their fans here specially for note 5

Yep that should be the best move by Samsung the dual SIM will also have microsd support

Usual crowd is already here, but this is one phone that gets a pass from me. Really nothing on offer here, makes it any superior to Note 4, which itself is a bit of a disaster right now on the current firmware. (disclosure i am comparing it to a nexus 6)

Which is not worth dropping 50k on for (after exchange). Considering it's a downgrade even on size. I currently am using an iPhone 6+ 128 which is nearly full and that's the only way i get with using my nexus 64 for only work.

Diwali is long way they should ideally release it in sept before iPhone 6s

There are many articles published since note 5 launch on 13th. Some mention dat note will b launched in india in sept. In others it is mentioned dat it won't be launched at all as samsung has skipped it for dis tym in india...
It will b their mistake....wat about note series loyalists?

Note loyalist aren't upgrading .... The fanatics are upgrading and Samsung ain't missing India... Note5 would be launched around 1st week of Sept with free wireless charger
