I just upgraded my wife & my LG G2's yesterday for Note 4's. Her G2 was wiggin' out, constantly saying headphones are being plugged in and muting her mic. ha
I was sure I was going to get G4's, but the few things that bugged me about the G2 made me fear history would repeat itself.
After less than 24 hours, the Note 4 is still an adjustment on size, but I'm loving the fingerprint reader and actually like the physical button to turn the screen on and also for those times when "immersive mode" takes over your whole screen (video, games, etc) and it can take a few tries getting out.
From previous phones, my wishlist was microSD slot, removable battery, better camera, fingerprint reader. I wish it could do RAW like some newer ones, but it covers most of the bases. Man, I wish I had this S-Pen back when I was obsessed with Drawsome.
I normally hold out for the latest and greatest, but the rumors have been flowing in that the Note 5 is going the route of the S6 and ditching the removable battery and SD card for a glass back. I think it's really sad that Samsung is trying to so hard to copy Apple or choosing looks over function, that they're giving up what the users really want in certain models. What's next, drop the pen too? Fine, mess with the S# line, but leave the Notes alone!

I love my Note 4. Screen size was a small adjustment for a day but now I feel like the phone is too small. I will only buy a phone with the buttons like Samsung, love it that way.I just upgraded my wife & my LG G2's yesterday for Note 4's.

Camera is a bit strange here and there but the few pictures I take look good. Could do without the pen, never use it lol

It's funny how the pen is the big draw (no pun intended) and yet it ends up being the least used feature.
Please don't tell me the camera's questionable! ha I'm counting on it being an improvement. I haven't tested enough yet, but I'm already sure it is.
I read countless reviews since it's been out for like 10 months now, but it was still impressive to see VZW's site had over 4000 reviews and still 5 stars. Pretty safe bet.

I mainly have issues when using it to deposit checks, but that's probably just the camera in the app. One bank works, another doesnt.It's funny how the pen is the big draw (no pun intended) and yet it ends up being the least used feature.
