So YOU love the S Pen, and for YOU it is the killer feature. That does not mean someone who doesn't care about it should ignore the Note.
I don't hate the S Pen, nor do I hate Samsung for including it. I hate that people come into threads like this and start shooting someone down for not liking or caring about the S Pen and then telling them they should have never gotten the Note because the S Pen is the entire reason to get the Note when that isn't remotely true.
Even without the S Pen you have:
Top of the line specs
Huge screen
All day and then some battery
Multi window
Great resolution
The rest of the S features if you care about that
A good camera
The LG Flex and the Galaxy Mega can't hold a candle to the specs and finish of the Note 4, the LG G3 has a terrible screen by comparison and lesser specs, the iPhone 6 Plus is an Apple device and not everyone wants Apple nor do they want a phone BIGGER than the Note 4 with a smaller screen, the Nexus 6 was announced 4 days AFTER the primary Note 4 launch and a month after Note 4 preorders started and it doesn't even have a concrete release date yet.
I don't hate Samsung and I don't hate the S Pen. I hate people passing their opinion as fact like you did and then saying people that don't like or care about the S Pen shouldn't even get the Note and their criticisms hold no weight because of it. YOU love the S Pen and it is THE reason to own a Note for YOU, but you are NOT everyone and you don't speak for everyone.

Heaven forbid I have an opinion. I don't expect you to feel the same way. I personally feel like any review of the Note that ends with "I didn't test out it's marquee feature" instantly pales in credibility to a review that utilizes the S pen to see what it adds to the experience. I love the S pen, yes. Do I use it every day? No! If I didn't care about the S pen, would I personally buy the Note? Freak no! There's other devices out there that had the research and development put into other aspects as opposed to some feature i'd never use.
I understand it's a niche deal, I understand you don't care for the pen. That's fine. I will still sleep fine tonight because people see things differently. I'm not interested in continuing to debate with you about some offense that you took because I understand that Samsung focuses on the S pen for their note line. I know the phone is great in other ways, all the other features you mentioned that it has aside from the pen are also in the Galaxy S5 (huge screen is relative- ask older iphone users) except all of the time of development for the Galaxy S5 focused on what you listed. If i'm buying a device and I know I don't want a tablet, i'm not going to buy a Nexus 7,9,10 or Tab 10.1 or anything else. If I know I would never use the S pen but I want the other features, i'd get the Galaxy S5 which is the same device but without the feature I don't like. It's fine with me if you do it differently.
