Not all are embracing the Plus' size. Which makes things even more funny however. Dissention among the iPhone fan family, oh no! !

Just wanted to see if you guys would agree to this, the only really make issue I hag with my note 3 (and big phones in general) is the charging port, at least for me in some pants the phone sitck out and of course the charging port is exposed; wouldn't you like to have the port on the side? Protected by pants in case of rain or liquid accident.
If you do flip the phone over it may still not be protected from 'liquid accident'
I must have pants with deep pockets - never noticed such problem with my note3.
Speaking about note 4 - there is nothing new that would make me to upgrade - note 3 still does everything I throw at it.

Ended up trading an old Samsung captivate to best buy so I could do the 200$ rebate dealio and got the note 4 for $100 plus tax after. I was going for a 6+ but I've switched between iOS and androids and it's like shirts..some days I prefer to wear a t shirt over a polo. I'll enjoy the note4 and hopefully it's as refined as they say. I pay for my dads phone so I'm getting his iphone 6 tomorrow so I'll be able to see if I made the right choice or not. About to pull the trigger on the gear 2 watch since I can't pull my phone out work but want to see notifications
I despise the charging port on my Note 3. Its hard to locate in the dark and the mini USB has to be facing the right way. I'd give anything to have a lightning cable; durable, can be connected either side, etc. Thank god for wireless charging.
I am very unfamiliar with Google wallet but since apply pay is going to put ton of stores into getting the stuff for smart pay..will Google wallet work off the same equipment?
Flip the phone upside down so the charging port doesn't stick out..?
And now the camera is sticking out

although he has been a bit generous by saying it's only a year old.

I was told today that it will be on display this weekend at my local BB.
Looking forward to checking it out asap.

Just got to handle a White Note 4.
It looks really nice. I'll say it looks a lot better than my Note 3.
Did Some comparisons with the screen, and it is much nicer depending on what you're viewing.
Looking at 1080p content on YouTube, the screens don't look too far apart. The Note 4 screen is crisper, the text is crisp and the colors look better.
Didn't get a chance to use the camera. Will try later.
TW on the Note 4 is miles ahead of what's on the Note 3. It looks nicer. S-pen menu changed. But the TW on the Note 4 looks like stock Android. Icons are round and the color is the google blue. While the Note 3 TW is like Windows 95.
The metal frame was nice to hold and the chamfered edges give it that premium feel. You have the white sides with a touch of silver around the edges. Looks nice. It's also nice how it's thinner in the middle and flares out at the top and bottom, like an hour glass. Makes it feel thinner to hold.
I put a iPhone 6+ on top of the Note 4 and it's almost the same width. It's so close that I would have to pull calipers out to make sure which one is thinner at the width.
And looking at it from the side, the thickness is almost the same. If the Note 4 back was more flat, it'll be the same thickness, I think. The white back had a curve to it. Also because it was white, the back plate didn't feel as nice as my black Note 3.
All that said, the iPhone 6+ feels thinner at the width, maybe because of the rounded edges. Felt like it was easier to grip and easier to drop compared to the Note 4.
The iPhone 6+ looks cool and hip, while the Note 4 looks all business.
Can't wait to get mine.

is the screen a lot better than the note 3 screen and is the speaker on the back doing any difference regarding the note 3 sound how do it keep up is it better or same ?
And is the note 4 going to get updated to android L when it comes , or can i keep my note 3 and still get the L update or is it going to get delayed as most of the updates , i am talking about the non locked operator mobile version?

I just saw one at my local BBY. They were getting ready to put it out so I had a chance to hold it without all the security on it. It is definitely crisper with text and the WB was a bit better than my N3.Even with their crappy demo software, it didn't stutter. The screen also seemed a bit brighter.
Can't say. Last time I did that it was a fiasco.
But I'm looking forward to the upgrade after holding it and comparing it to the iPhone 6+.
When I first held it I was wow this is so light, but it didn't have the battery in it, lol.
The battery is different than the Note 3, it's tall and skinny vs shorter and wide.
Yeah from what I've seen in videos it's not looking quite as horrible as earlier at least. I just wish they'd get rid of the snot-neon green in the notifications shade.........I never got what was up with that color
In other news, the more vids I watch, the more I'm starting to like the bronze over the black version. That dark silver shade on the front is really nice, and it looks like the logo doesn't show as much on it as on the black. I couldn't stand the shiny backplate but a black replacement is probably pretty cheap.
There's nothing on the carphone Warehouse Web site. On the O2 website there is just a picture with the words coming soon
