Got the Note 4 4 days ago and am simply awe struck. Used Note 3 for almost a year in between went to iPhone 6 plus and what a terrible mess that was. This is by far the best phablet or device I have used so far. The screen, battery the new tweaks in OS and the stylus are unbelievable. And I forgot about the beautiful design of the device. Samsung has simply done it again. I am a happy camper if you are even slightly double minded of getting it don't even think twice. I can go on and on but simply the note 4 has left me speechless, it is definitely "note" worthy.
 
Completely forgot about the fast adaptive charging, 0 to 100 in 50 minutes. Unbelievable.
 
I can't wait to get mine sooooon. I will actually be going to the 4 from a Note 2! So should be amazing!
 
I have an iPhone 6 (not the Plus) and have had the Note for 2 days now. The screen on the Note demolishes the 6, the S Pen is handy and the fast charging is nice but mine is not that fast. I went from 8% to 100% in about an hour and a half. Still not bad and pretty fast.

I haven't touched my 6 since I got the Note and I don't know that I will. Don't get me wrong the iPhone 6 is a nice device but the Note 4 offers so much more.
 
Simply put best phone that i ever had and i get a new one every year

I'm very shocked kinda how that works for me on USB 2.0
It's unbelievable for me too. I love it too.

I'll be doing the same. I'm really going to miss the note 2 though ( doing the bestbuy trade in). This phone has been flawless, except the pen was...well... quite useless on this phone for me. But every thing has been perfect otherwise.

3.0 on the Note 3 didn't increase charge times so that's why it didn't matter much.
 
I have the note 4 and I'm debating returning it for the 6 plus.
This is my first Android device and I switched from a iPhone 5 to the note 4. Here's my issue that's causing my delimma. I commute on a motorcycle and use a bluetooth device on my helmet for communication. The iPhone integrates flawlessly. Siri makes my calls, texts, reads me my incoming texts and so on. But the note 4 is a major struggle. I can get it to work with my music and make calls as well as send texts. But I can only get it to give me directions about 25% of the time I ask. It does it every time but only puts it on the screen and doesn't give audible directions. Major issues is the texting. I haven't figured out how to get the phone to read my incoming texts. That's a big problem to me. When I ask it to it just puts the message on screen but again nothing audible.

I have one week left in my 2 week return period and have to decide to keep it or return for the iPhone. I'm sick of iPhone and love this phone but working on my bike is hugely important and so for its a major fail for the note 4. Any advice?

I also don't want to have a app running all the time just sucking up my data.

I use the Sena smh10 bluetooth communication system. And is a att phone.
 
There are apps that will read your texts. I don't use any so I can't recommend one.

For navigation, however, I highly recommend Waze. It is a social map, so other users will provide information about traffic, accidents, speed traps, etc in real time. Navigation is accurate and is spoken. Give it a try before you return.
 
Problem with using apps is data drain

Depending on how you have it set up (using Gnow or svoice), just ask it to "read my messages" and it will. Can't say the name of who texted as it will just put it on screen....such as "read message from michelle". Just say "read my messages". And turn off driving mode!! That thing sucks....

This is one area iPhone has it right. But like others have said there are apps that will fix it and do exactly what you want. Like me, I have an old Motorola Command one that syncs and works with the Motorola MyMotoSpeak app. I just pair the Command One to it and once that's done, I can use ANY bluetooth device with it. It's flawless for phone, texts, directions, and etc.
 
I been playing with it since I got the Note 4 on Monday. Really enjoying the phone too! :) Note 1 to Note 4 = caveman to spaceman!
