Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Review: A Look at Top Specs and Features
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 that was introduced at IFA 2014 is currently touted to be the best phablet around, and Samsung has gone all out with this device as it's sporting a big screen and it comes with an S-Pen stylus. Though the device doesn't come cheap, fans of the Galaxy Note 4 claim that it's very worth its price as the powerful device gives maximum productivity.
Design:
The overall design of the Galaxy Note 4 echoes that of its predecessor as it still has a faux leather textured back, but the difference is that it has a metal frame and none of the stitching detail found on the Note 3. It measures 6.04 x 3.07 x 0.33 inches and weighs 6.17 ounces. It's slightly thicker and heavier than its predecessor so its best used with two hands.
The phablet is available in Charcoal Black, Frost White, Blossom Pink and Bronze Gold. If you're in the mood for something more sparkly, Samsung has teamed up with Swarovski to offer Swarovski crystal encrusted back cases for the Note 4.
