Because it becomes clear enough that samsung is way behind the curve, sure they have a 200mp main camera but all camera phones have proven that having a bigger 1" sensor is better and vivo for example has shown that if you instead pair a 200mp sensor with a periscope lens you get the best telephoto camera on a phone to date. Also the battery, we have silicone carbon or whatever batteries now with greater capacities some going above 6000mah, meanwhile samsung has been sticking with a 5000mah battery for like 3 or 4 years now.

The Note4 has a powerful processor even today. There is a video where a guy from Argentina wrote a version of Blender for Nokia N95, and surprisingly it works.

The “best Samsung ever” title would go to the Note 9, for me. It had EVERYTHING the 4 provides and more; the only category in which the 4 would be at an advantage (and a relative one at that) is the removable battery; relative because I had the Note 9 for 4+ years and I never experienced degraded battery performance. On the flip side, the Note 9 gave me: * DeX * Wireless charging * USB C * Water resistance * two cameras It was the last great Samsung before they started removing features

Note 9 has everything but the removable battery which is a big loss admittedly. And I guess I would have liked to Matte design but you know that's getting real picky.

[@SilenceAtMidnight]

This had better be the note 4. That phone was PEAK

[@ekinteko]

It was the last no-compromise phone. - brightest display - sharpest camera - fastest processor - lomgest battery life - best software - most features

[@ekinteko]

It just needs to be the 64bit model with the superior Exynos 4533 chipset. The original software didn't take advantage of it. But the Custom Rom scene basically fixed this with the likes of Android 5.1 on Resurrection Remix.

[@ekinteko]

The following year Samsung introduced the Galaxy S6/Note 6. And while there were some slight improvements to the screen, camera, water resistance...... well, they got rid of the microSD slot and the User Removable Battery. These major downgrades, along with higher prices, were not enough to override the positives. Basically being the updated software and notably better Exynos 7470 chipset. At least the following year it was worth it. Particularly with the Samsung S7+ Active variant. This introduced a big chipset upgrade with the Exynos 8890, a huge camera upgrade, guaranteed IP67 protection, and the return of the microSD slot. An even more enticing offer came with the ZTE Axon 7. It offered a slower, yet still competitive QSD 820 chipset, a better design, software support, for half the price. And it arrived 6 months earlier. Overall, 2014 marked the end of User Removable Battery, and the trade-off with IP67/68 ingress protection. There was the brief moment with the LG G5 and LG V20, which had IP66/IP67 resistance and a User Removable Battery. But they were recalled due to the infamous bootloop error. 2017 marked the end of competitive phones. As each manufacturer downgraded features progressively each year. We soon lost IrDa Blaster, then Aluminium hardware, then Flat Screens, then to Notches, then microSD slot, and then the 3.5mm aux port. The last "okay" device was the Samsung S10+ with the QSD 855 chipset. If you were patient, you eventually got the bootloader unlocked, root, updated rom with debloat. It's not quiet the optimised way of EvoX Rom on the international model, but that Exynos 9820 was not a good chipset. On top of this, with the S10+ you still had the microSD slot and 3.5mm aux port, and you also got the fantastic Razer JungleCat controllers. The nearest best, is a side-grade to the QSD 778 model in the Late-2021 Samsung Galaxy A53-S model. But all other Samsung's, nay, all other phones beyond here have all those feature sacrifices mentioned above. Poor a drink for our hommies

I was using it for 7 years. It was my last Samsung phone. Even as I switched to other brands in 2015, I continued to use it until 2021. The reason I switched to other brands was because after it Samsung have used curved screens in their flagship phones.

[@DavidNgo86]

They had a flat and edge models until 2017. Didn't need to switch

[@jtubalinal]

@@DavidNgo86 They did, but their most premium ones have curved edges. I was with Samsung from the S1, then S2. Then switched over to the Note series and I had every Note up to the Note 4. It's just not the curved edges as well that made me switch. I briefly had a Note 5, but I sold it and switched to LG G4; I accidentally compared the screens to my Note 5 then and a cousin's G4 and found that my screen had this yellowish tint that won't go away. It gets more pronounced when I am displaying white on the screen. I found that the blue subpixels on AMOLEDs actually decompose faster than the red and green subpixels, causing that yellowish tint on every AMOLED or any OLED screens even now. Yes, AMOLEDs has true blacks, but it effs up every other color with yellowish tint that gets worse as the device ages.

Agreed. I wish phones nowadays retained the slightly curved back, especially towards the left and right sides like how the Note 4 did it (back curves towards the front, not the screen towards the back), as that just makes it much more ergonomic and comfortable to hold. Case designs would follow that design so even with a case it would still make a difference.

I remember when I had the note 4 everyone thought it was a ridiculous phone because it was so big! Almost considered small compared to today's phone 😂

[@revampedglobe]

I miss this phone

I have a galaxy s5, I would still be using it as my daily driver if the Australian government had allowed it to keep functioning after the 3G shutdown, it is a 4G international variant with the correct CSC flashed, but the firmware wasn't updated to allow emergency calls using Voice over LTE (VoLTE)

Cant lie I wanted the Note Edge over Note 4. the Edge display was so cool! lol

I’ve always owned Samsung Notes since the SGH i717 AT&T. I lost interest in line up when the Note 10 was released. I came back and still have my N20U. The Note 4 was a beloved model.

Ergonomics kinda disappeared. I miss the iPhone 3G and 3GS because they laid great in my hand (small hands).

Even the S5 was goated
