now in its fourth incarnation the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is just one of a whole bunch of really big phones including the iphone 6 plus despite all that it has one thing that rivals don't a stylus that acts like a mouse and that gives you the ability to write and draw directly on the screen this is Jessica Dahl court for CNET and I'm gonna walk you through the Samsung Galaxy Note before this year's S Pen is much more sensitive to pressure than ever before and it gets a few streamlined multitasking skills but our nice additions to the phone's capabilities you can find out much more about those and some of my other note 4 videos so check them out meanwhile the smart phone itself gets a fresh lick of paint with an all-metal rim to accent the usual plastic body and upgraded specs that rate at or near the top of the industry game it retains its 5.7 inch screen that goes quad HD and a 1440 pixels Ellucian the screen is bright and brilliant and the phone feels good in the hand it's also running Android 4.4 KitKat this time around we find that a 16 megapixel camera with optical image stabilization is on the back it takes beautiful outdoor shots and indoor an evening photos that are ok but perhaps a little bit money a few enhancements just for selfies help enhance the 3.7 megapixel front-facing camera and you can even take higher-quality portraits from the main camera as well again I've got a breakout video just for that underneath the hood you get either a rapid quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor or in some regions a 1.9 gigahertz octa-core chipset and a nice big battery to boot Samsung has tackled the hot-button issue of battery life two ways first by keeping battery life pretty long and second by making the charger really really fast so the note 4 is an excellent large screen phone but is also pretty expensive if you intend to make use of that unique stylus as a mouse or as a pen then you're making a good investment otherwise you may want to shop around for a better deal on phones that are just about as good be sure to check out my full galaxy note 4 review and more videos besides Etsy Netcom
