Nice mate, Im not convinced ill get the s view cover, ive been looking at the neo hybrid from spigen but they dont seem to be on amazon yet =(
Yeah I've been thinking of those. Just feel I need a cover on the front. Do love those cases though.

I got the s-view for my Note 3 when I purchased it.
After a couple months, the novelty wore off, and I went to a Spigen case.

For me it got to be a hassle to open the S-view and hold it one hand while using it.

Also from the drop test video Samsung put out, I don't think the Note 4 will need a case at all.
 
I'll probably just grab the neo hybrid case and a tempered glass screen protector, seen orzly protectors and from the YouTube video they look pretty solid. And yeah the drop tests look very promising =p
 
Very nice. My only concern is the speaker being on the back and how it will sound when laying on a table.

My GS5 speaker would vibrate a little. Does anyone know if the N4 does too? I might have to take a trip to BB and check.....
 
Yeah, speaker on the back is a little disappointing.

I ordered two cases from Spigen. One with a raised speaker hole and the other has a kickstand so that should help. If it sounds anything like the Note 2, it should be okay. I never had any issues with sound on that phone even though speaker is on the back.

I like the speaker on my GS5. But the back would vibrate a little when playing music. Not a big deal but a little annoying.
 
Spent an hour at BB tonight with the N4. I tested the camera...video....S-pen. The Samsung rep walked me through more things witht he s-Pen than i knew existed and will probably ever remember. I compared it to my OPO.... I love the OPO because of the way it fits on my hand and the way it performs. Looking at the N4 i have no doubt it will do the same. The OPO and N4 are just about the same size! So....I pre-ordered the N4 tonight from AT&T. It says it ships on Oct 14th and delivers by the 17th. Can't wait.......
 
Just got my Note 4 charcoal black. I am quite impressed with. For the first time on a samsung phone the cold metal feel. It definitely feels more solid than my Note3. But the top chamfer edges is kinda of sharp. The back feels more leather-like.

Speed-wise I dont detect that much difference to Note 3. Maybe a bit snappier or maybe placebo effect. But one thing for sure, the camera is much more responsive.

I'll give a comparison to Note 3 later (for those who were thinking of upgrading from Note3)

Fuhhhhhh.

The note 4 is really intriguing me.

I have a 6 plus and love it, but this phone is the first time i really am interested in a galaxy phone.

I have had an iphone every year since they came out though, and am a little worried what the change might be like. I tried the LG G2 a couple years ago, and decided to return it because of the crappy software and the ****** way android handled things like group texts (although I know kitkat fixed this).

I think I am going to go check this out in best buy tomorrow, anyone got any thoughts on someone switching from being exclusively an iphone user since launch?
 
If the note 4 had android l at launch it would have made a lot more compelling argument for me over the 6+.

I haven't personally got to play with the note 4 but the software still (aesthetically) looked rough around the edges to me. I know this is a shallow reason to switch back but after a year of looking at the atrocious menus on the note 3 it was time to go home.

I am very curious to see how they implement android l and material design. If they get their software looking good I will probably snag a note 5 in a year's time.

Android L won't be released when the note 4 launches so it's not possible for the Note 4 to have it when it goes on sale.
