The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is a worthy successor to the throne of the Note series. The Galaxy Note 4 makes it look like that every feature of its predecessor is put into overdrive. It is the first Note not to grow screen size but it has grown 80% more pixels thanks to its new QHD resolution. It pushes the pixel density from 386ppi to 515ppi.

It is Super AMOLED, of course but it’s covered by 2.5D Gorilla Glass 3. The Galaxy Note 4 brings a redesigned S Pen stylus that offers better grip. The accompanying software has also been enhanced.
The Galaxy Note 4 has a metal frame like the Galaxy Alpha and a faux leather back, which will come in Frosted white, Charcoal black, Bronze Gold and Blossom Pink. There’s no water resistance though (again, like the Alpha).
There’s a 3,220mAh battery powering the Galaxy Note 4 and you can add the optional Qi wireless charging panel if you like.
