Samsung Galaxy Note 4 - Pre-Release (please share)

2014-08-08
as of this video there's less than a month into the galaxy note 4 is potentially announced in Samsung will be hosting their unpacked 2014 episode two event on Wednesday September 3rd 2014 in Berlin Germany Beijing and New York simultaneously and if you're not part of the press you can watch the live broadcast at the following address on your screen so for sure mark those calendars but what indications of the note 4 being announced well it's the tagline in samsung's official illustration stating note the date but is it coincidental I don't think so as the illustrated picture is the S pen's menu on previous note products released in the past so what I'd like to do is bring you everything that I personally know of so far on the note 4 and provide you some insight before the potential announcement in less than a month we'll stay away from rumors as much as I can and not hide this launch but provide what's been leaked or at least what's most likely to be available I'm Jimmy with Jim's review room welcome to another video the note phones from Samsung has always been there best of the best top-of-the-line smartphones to come from the factory especially the note 3 offering an amazing and contrasting 5.7 inch screen it featured a 1080 display an amazing camera and all the bells and whistles of an ultra high-end smartphone you can even record 4k content which was amazingly sharp all from a device that fits in one hand but the note 3 in the latest galaxy s5 had its own fair share of criticism maybe due to being over height or maybe we as consumers were expecting too much specifically during the launch of the s5 so we're ahead of time expecting a metal body construction 64-bit processing more RAM etc etc and probably at that time it was meant to be released but again Samsung decided not to there's still great phones nonetheless but Samsung has lost some of its luster per its second quarter earnings but to daven a little bit deeper and from my research samsung is losing in its low level to mid tier handhelds and Samsung did admit they spent more on marketing than usual to compete and they are getting rid of their old inventory to make room for new ones this upcoming fall either case although Samsung is having its worst performance in two years as confirmed by these reports Samsung is still a giant wrecking ball and no question won't be global leaders and more importantly market influencers and that's the hope of the note for that there's enough change or innovation once again to shake the industry and give some life back to smartphones and tablets you can say in general now starting off with a screen reports or speculating the same 5.7 inch size is coming back but this time with a resolution of 2560 by 1440 translating to still a 16 by 9 aspect ratio in a crazy 515 pixels per inch now the Oppo find 7 and LG g3 are the only other phones at the moment to feature the same resolution now with that being said reading engadget.com TechRadar and Android Central States with the additional pixels it's no question that it's very sharp but you really have to pay attention or put a qHD screen side by side with a 1080 resolution display to really know and not to mention more pixels equals faster battery drain so we'll see how Sam Sun will address this but what's more unique per News Agency routers comm Samsung's senior vice president of product strategy mentions the note will be a new form factor now nothing more has been leaked or discussed on that aspect but speculation leads to a possible curved screen as shown on one of Samsung's conferences in the past showcasing all LEDs and prototype display technologies so the form factor change is confirmed but only time will tell if there is a change to the screen at all and what kind of change we're looking at in speaking of the physical form factor I think we're still seeking a bit more of a premium material to be used rather than these similar plastics on the s4 s5 and galaxy tablets although the plastic does work and it doesn't bother me too much personally but once handling say a HTC m8 or playing around with the g3 going back to plastic does feel a bit different and I'm just saying I'm paying a premium price it'd be nice to get a premium feel as well now moving to another big area the arms race the SOC or processor that's possible in the nude note 4 showed up around June 23rd in the benchmark program and - - now two variants showed up one is from Qualcomm the newest quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor and the other is Samsung's newest eight core Exynos 5433 now specs are on your screen and when comparing these pre-release numbers the 805 shows a 15% performance boost over the current note 3 which uses the snapdragon 801 and come to think of it it's possible the newest chip of course will handle the higher resolution but more importantly battery management will be better a much better that is for the additional pixels on screen at least here's hoping and per Qualcomm website the graphics portion of the Snapdragon processor called the adrenal 420 GPU is 40% better in performance compared to the predecessor the adrenal 330 found again in blasters note 3 now more than likely the Snapdragon will be here in the US but what I'm totally bummed out about is the Exynos will more than likely be available internationally and per those elite benchmarks the Exynos is even more powerful than the 805 and just I here under the almighty k1 processor from Nvidia which I just reviewed about a week ago and looking at the charts and numbers the Exynos does much better in cpu performance versus the Snapdragon 805 so here's hoping the lagging stutters are going away but one last tidbit the Exynos is a 64-bit architecture catching up to Apple you can say in that aspect but per tech radar one of the many websites who reported on the leaked benchmarks indicated the eight core Exynos processor was not tested in its 64-bit environment the processor wasn't even fully utilized and per android authority they speculated the processor was only running at one point three gigahertz and if that's all accurate just imagine when this processor is really tested and it's full offering so we'll just have to wait and see and what comes about here in the States and what comes about across the pond you can say and other notable upgrades that are strongly suggested is a 16 megapixel camera which is the same resolution as the s5 but people are suspected with optical image stabilization just to help out with those shaky hands and blurred photos and I'm sure the s5 heartrate reader and fingerprint scanners are coming to the note 4 as well which which is nice for them to include but I personally would rather see a focus on better better life or a more refined TouchWiz interface refined and being less intrusive towards performance that be phenomenal so everything else that I want to mention is more speculation and rumors like articles stating there's possibly a UV sensor a curve a fully curved display that is and even a retina scanner for improved security measures and I don't want to hype this product any more than it is I guess you can say as that's what happened with the s5 I'm realistically optimistic I guess you could say especially the mentioning of the new form factor again we'll just have to wait and see but that's everything that I know of so far so this video did take some researching and if you can please share this video in any way that you can be sure to find me on Facebook Google+ and Twitter and of course show your support by liking and subscribing if you haven't done so let me know in the comments below if you're intending on buying this phone or the iPhone 6 regardless of what comes this is Jimmy with Jim's review room take everyone you
