Upgrading to a Note 4 from a Note 3

[tech_fan]

I know that this is subjective but, if you had the opportunity to upgrade from a Note 3 to a Note 4 for an extra $10 per month would it be worth it to upgrade considering the new features of the 4 over the 3?

I sold my Note 3 and went to the Note 4... So I'd say Yep .

 

[theoretically]

For only $10 more/month I'd say its a no brainer!

I own the note 4 and to be honest I would say no but it just depends on the person upgrading really

I upgraded from the Note 3 to the Note 4 by purchasing for full retail. I find it was worth every penny. Your mileage may vary.

Count me in as another who upgraded from the note 3 to note 4 who thinks you should go for it. The note 3 was nice, but the sum of all the little upgrades on the note 4 make it a worthwhile upgrade imo.

Yeah no brainer. Depends on your situation of course.

I'm in the same situation, but honestly, the camera isn't turning out to be a major upgrade the more photo results I see from it and the screen resolution increase does nothing for me honestly. I think the Note 3 is my last Samsung product and im going to Sony next year or HTC if they ever get their act together

Well the note 4 gets way better reception than the 3. Also to me the camera takes better pics. And even with hdr mode turned on it takes them faster. It's a solid upgrade to me over the 3.

Yes,, it's a very good upgrade for the screen and speed alone

NOTE 4,, GO BIG OR GO HOME!

Upgraded from.a note 3. The camera and screen alone are sufficient upgrades, especially the camera. Resolution wise the screen you wont see a huge different but its noticeable. What i love most is that its very bright and colors are beautiful. Even with basic screen mode (less saturated) the screen looks wonderful. Camera while low light still isnt the absolute best, is very good compared to any Samsung phone ever made.

I too came from the Note 3. I took a lot of 4K video and best quality pics on my note 3. I can actually more fully enjoy them on the 4. Anyone who cannot tell the difference in screen quality is not seeing the real world. The OIS keeps the little shakes from blurring pictures for me as well. And the speed ; wow! No lag with Nova here. Even Touchwiz was fast and I would have stayed with it if I wasn't so used to the customization that Nova provides. I got great battery life on the 3 but it doesn't even come close to the 4. I miss my Note 3 like I missed my Note 2 because they were great phones but the Note 4 is in a class of its own. No regrets whatsoever here!

I upgraded and do not regret one bit. I still have the 3 and use over WiFi or for my games. I paid full retail for Note 4 and this is why I feel it was a great upgrade.

1. Screen resolution and the slightly curbed display makes for a much better viewing experience. It's not as dull.

2. Photos are better.

3. Camera is less clunky, faster, and easier to take photos. I would fumble with the Note 3. Particularly from the lock screen.

4. Touchwiz and the whole entire UI is now cleaner. I don't feel the need to change my launcher, dialer, messaging app, etc because it just looks, feels, works better and is nicer and snappy. It's the little things. Using everything as is creates less bog down on the system I feel. Fingerprint scanner is a better option than password. Although it sometimes is tricky, it's way better than a password.

5. The build quality is fantastic

6. Battery life is amazing. I haven't needed to install battery doctor or any similar app yet. Note 3 drove me crazy with inconsistent battery life.

7. I use spen a lot and the experience is just better. My handwriting on the note has improved without any effort on my part.

8. Everything just feels much and works much better to me.

I debated before I got it and even the day I got it whether I made a good decision but one day of use I was sold.

The screen and the build alone are already worth it.

Upgraded from Note 3 and it's totally worth it! The fingerprint scanner, wide selfie, rapid charging, to name a few is awesome! It's the little things in life....

I've have not missed my note 3 one bit...note 4 camera is a huge upgrade the fingerprint scanner is awesome, the battery life is excellent (until lollipop kills it) the fast charging is great too...the only thing that I'm upset about is the lack of a menu button some apps have not updated to accommodate this change, other than that flawless phone...

I did it because I dropped my note 3 in water, but I must have the Gear VR also. Gonna be the best smartphone ever when paired with the Gear VR.
