[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
They released alpha with exynos so note 4 will have it too and if for a surprising reason they do bring SD version then there is no brainer to pick SD over exynos specially for more development support .. 64 bit is more of a gimmick will not see an upgrade on heavy samsung touchwiz
[Galaxy Note 4 General] A5777:
920$ almost 55000rs samsung have to come up with a better pricing,49000rs is the max they should retail it for.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] AndroidNoob22:
I wanted to buy Note 4 but I think I might just not this time, I've had all series of Note and I love them all they're just fantastic, but I've recently read somewhere Samsung will not sell Note 4 via online retailers, coz they've been butt hurt by the discounts and price drops by online retailers, I always buy mobiles only via flipkart WS Retail coz they have much btr pricing and reliability compared to Samsung stores (replacement and all are ease ^_^) and since Diwali is coming Note 4 could have got some great offers/discounts if sold by WS Retail, but if they seriously are not gona sell it via e-commerce sites this time, I'd have to look for other options unless I can grab one for around 46-47k as Samsung is jus gona fu** the pricing of note 4 and if it's sold in stores only, then R.I.P money... :/ lets just wait and hope they price it well and all the above just doesn't happen :((
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kanwarpreetsingh25:
I prefer to buy online too..but this time Samsung ruined it,,,, Offline retailers would price it high for sure,,but the price may come down a little bit in two or three months..I will probably wait then to pay 5-6K more..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bala_gamer:
If they launch it under 50 k I might consider it
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Won't be less than 50k for sure as their crappy alpha is 40, but will buy it anyways looks great this time compared to note 3

Price

What will be the price in india
[Galaxy Note 4 General] JoganJani:
Any of you know if Note Edge will come to India?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] golemagg:
What is the use of LTE in a phone in India when LTE offered is for data only. Nobody is offering LTE with voice. I guess it'll be useful if you just intend on using your Note 4 as a tablet.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
This is as per android authority

Although Korea and a few lucky parts of Asia saw the*Note 4 in September, India will be the first market to see the Note 4 this month on October 10th. India will be followed by several other Asian countries such as Singapore on the 11th, Thailand on the 13th, Myanmar on the 15th and many more. Turning to North America and Europe, it seems that most of the countries in these regions will see the Note 4 on October 17th.*
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kanwarpreetsingh25:

Note 4

Currently I am using S5 which I recently bought. But I am now leaning towards Note 4 and it's QHD Screen. Man this hunger sucks :cowboy:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sudhir3127:
Just spoke to a samsung store guy in NCR and he says that the launch is on the 17th. Not sure if he has the information as he said Alpha launch is on the 10th. May be he meant that users can buy phones from these days. He is already taking a pre-booking for Note 4 for Rs.2000 and phone will be given on the 17th in the store. I don't know why would Samsung launch a phone on 10th and make it available to buy only on 17th? Do they have such precedence in India? Appreciate your inputs. He also added that Jacqueline Fernandez will launch the phone in Gurgaon , NCR and price is Rs 58,000/. I doubt if Samsung would take the risk of launching the phone on the same day as IPhone 6/6+
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lycan_codex:
58000 is high. Again it makes no sense that the phone would launch @ 10th October and be available to market @ 17th.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ruchirtrehan:
Even I spoke to a guy at Samsung last year before Note 3 came out, and he said some similar things that it's priced at 56k and blabla, I already knew it's total bull**** and I think it is the same this time, 58k seriously? Samsung wouldn't do that unless they want another S5 type sales and price drops in weeks.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kannanX10:
nothing is confirmed as of now,all are speculations even some r stating availability from 20th as alpha announced on sep29th is not yet available in samsung stores..............my guess is that note4 will be available before ip6 is released in india ie bef 17th...............................lets wait and watch
[Galaxy Note 4 General] :
Wow bro.. glad we both come frm Xperia Z2.. this wait is really sucks.. waiting for NOTE 4 each and every min...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] badelemental:
I had Z2 and now using S5 because I like AMOLED displays. Somehow I can't go back to LCDs. Z2 display was not that great IMO.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
finally its available in Pune, I am getting a black one

anyone from Pune, you can get it today, they say limited stocks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] npt1988:
Does anyone know what the total cost will be if buying from expansys? What is the import duty that will be charged?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shuvadeep:
Its around 10-12% of the item value/declared value.

Declared value only works if item is not available in India and depending on package size.

It also depends on the inspecting officer.

I had imported few LG G3 from Korea.

Didn't have to pay import duty on one and for the rest the amount varied from 2.2k to 3.5k
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jraman:
how much u paid ??
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mordani_kamal:
only the thing is expasys says its price quoted is inclusive of all the duty to be paid .
[Galaxy Note 4 General] :
58k
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mordani_kamal:
here u go . altho ive never had experience ordering frm expansys nor have i heard frm ne 1 in india who has so refrained my self and waiting
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
Any product ordered from outside India has to pay import duty.. I have ordered few stuffs from expansys and had to pay duty all the time
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mordani_kamal:
well gr8 tht i dint order frm them i was almost about to order but held off cause of warranty i wanted samsung indian warranty . nehow who do u actually go and pay to the courier company or customs office ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
They used fedex once and fedex guy collected the money from me at home they pay at airport on behalf of us and collect at time of delivery
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MaxMan21:
Where are you getting it from in Pune and what's the price?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
No discount in price as stock is less.. Got for 58 from wanowarie
[Galaxy Note 4 General] MaxMan21:
I think I will wait, as I don't want to pay anything more than 50K at the moment. Hope in a month or two the prices will come down or possibly better or cheaper options like nexus 6 would be available.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
If u can wait 2 months great u will have options
[Galaxy Note 4 General] superfast:
Dealers price itself 56.9 k , one can't expect below this...! Wait for few days till new schemes lands for retailers..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Shamms:
It will not touch that price for atleast 6 months. That's what had happened to note 3 also, specially when note edge is expected that too a very limited version, demand of note 4 will be high.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
I don't understand samsung policy but surely they have messed up this time. We know there are lot ppl want to make purchase on diwali in india and we XDA users are different and want a special device of our choice but thousand of common users still are undiceded about it and they have own budget of 50+K they all might have moved to other like iphone or other high end device because of N4 non availibility.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bala_gamer:
I heard from retailers of my home town that the stock will be in abundance starting from November, they planned to launch earlier and made a whole mess with the stock. But in no way I believe any user who planned for note 4 would switch over to other device ,note 4 is distinct and unique from all the phablets out there
[Galaxy Note 4 General] mordani_kamal:
samsung has messed up this launch pretty bad . still no stock newhere in the north east and online store doesnt deliver nething valued over 10k . the iphone launch however went flawless they were giving out phones at midnight on the 17th .
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
I was frustrated too but only yesterday they got it finally in Pune

Someone here said they only planned to release in tier 1 and metres before diwali and after that in whole of india

Its really rediclous how badly they handled stocks whereas apple did everything they promised

Although note 4 is a great device but bad pricing and stupid stock issues should make it loose against apple iPhone 6 plus this time

This will be good for us as Samsung will make more effort next time... Their s5 has already been a flop show and if note 4 sales take a hit they will learn some lesson

Although it's great that they got SD version in india

I must say note 4 is a amazing device, few stuffs like front speakers and sleek sense and blinkfeed I miss comming from htc one m8 else everything is great
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kanwarpreetsingh25:

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Shamms:
Hi All

I wanted to pickup black-grey N4, Only cause previous N3 was white and 2nd maintenance. But was really impressed with rich looks of white compared to Black. S-View of white is softer smoother compared to black, but that's to ensure cleaning is easy. Quality of S-View is the best till date. White looks real premium specially after S-View is installed.

Does anyone knows how to change the theme, why is white background given instead of black, power consumption is comparatively low when background theme is dark or black.

I am felling a little lag, specially when I have selected Swype as my default keyboard, keyboard icon gets displayed in notification bar, but keyboard pops-up after a delay of 5-6 secs, this doesn't happen every time but when keyboard is opened after a delayed.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] badelemental:
I have also ordered the same and should get it today. Got it for 700. The original price was 800 but I bought from eBay mobile App and applied a coupon that gave me 100 discount.

Let's hope this fits well. I don't mind if it can't cover edge to edge. Anyway something is better than nothing IMO.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
No lag in Skype keyboard here, got the new material design theme and it looks awesome
[Galaxy Note 4 General] badelemental:
You mean SwiftKey right ? I am using Material Dark theme :D
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
O yeah SwiftKey new theme looks amazing
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Shamms:
I am not talking abt keyboard swyping lag, but lag when keyboard pops out for the first time, I guess it reads samsung KB first, this issue was there in N3 also, but my N3 was rooted to I had frozen default Kboard. It could be a Swype KB issue too, but as I have my database of years built on this, cannot migrate.

I was playing candy crush and felt a lag with candy's falling slowly and freezing. I have not yet rooted my mobile, waiting for [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] to release his rom and I hope solution for not tripping knox will be part of it.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
I meant keyboard popping out only and am using the same SwiftKey, no lag in anything so far

Samsung did some good tuning this time it seems

I am not using touchwiz launcher as its resource hog and ugly... Using HTC blinkfeed

You can try google now launcher set it default then reboot and then see if u still see lag
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Shamms:
I am using Nova launcher and feel comfortable with the setup. Will checkout your suggestions.:good:
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kannanX10:
my short review of SM-N910G

--display is simply stunning(even in Amoled photo and basic modes) and much better and in diff league altogether when compared with QHD of LG G3

--build quality is good and device looks premium , S view is a nice addition

--speaker is louder than my previous S5 and Z2

--Camera does takes excellent pics with good details and smart OIS is on par with steadyshot on Z2(yet to test low light video)

--sound quality with good headphones produces better results(slightly behind exynos based S5 and better than Z2),it does produces excellent bass levels.........

--battery life seems to be ok,i think it will improve after some charging cycles

--S-pen is definitely improved when compared with previous iterations

--touchwiz is better optimized in note 4 and i don't feel any lag

--call quality is good(if possible in call setting set it to clear sound) and much better than my previous z2 as i had some severe call issues

--got 45k in antutu and 24.5k in quadrant

IMHO note 4 is the best flagship of 2014(probably until april 2015) without any hesitation..........
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
What does clear audio in call does, I find to keep it off sounds better

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:04 PM ----------

any 3rd party launcher is better than samsung old crappy touchwiz...dont know why they are living in 5 years old software still, they should look at HTC sense...the most sleekest software after stock android

I have changed dialer to exdialer with android L theme, sms with hangouts, launcher blinkfeed of HTC

basically its not like stock note 4 now and mucu much smoother and sleek :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] badelemental:
UPDATE : Nillkin one is also not fitting well. It barely covers the entire screen :(

[Galaxy Note 4 General] max.android:
I am glad I didn't order Nillkin ... was waiting for someone to confirm if it fits the curved screen of note 4..currently using a normal screen guard bought from eBay. .fits 100% on screen. . no bubbles
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Absolutely correct. We pay for this amazing screen and leaving unused for whom who pay us half price.

This cover funda seems more in India whether it is mobile, TV, car seat cover or even remote lol

But really i hate cover.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ipsuvedi:
Hi doc! Have you got the device?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
haha absolutely Doc

when I was buying note 4 the shop guys were surprised why I dont want a screenguard and case .. yes its indian mentality

I am just looking for a top or ide flip pouch to use in pockets but nothing on screen or back

btw when are you getting yours
[Galaxy Note 4 General] shuvadeep:
Cant agree more on this.

The joy and the feeling that I get by using only the device (be it phone, remote) is worth more to me that protecting the device.

In fact I have never used any covers/protective cases for any of my devices till date and they have lasted really well.

Ohh man ... wasted 700 Rs. Anyways which one did you get ? I don't want to take any chances and get a good screen guard ASAP. Last time I had a S5 and dropped it by mistake because my hand was wet. Luckily I had the screen guard. There was a little scratch but nothing happened to screen.

---------- Post added at 05:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

It's just a matter of choice. I did dropped one of my mobile (S5) and due to screen guard it survived so I don't want to take any chances. Afterall it's 58K and after a year or so if it gets any scratches then the resell value will be less.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] badelemental:
Actually it covers only the display area. Not a single mm left or right. It's just doesn't feel nice. I like the edge to edge ones. Man Sammy should have gone for flat glass surface.

if you say ur phone survived a drop due to screen guard, no one will believe it and its ur myth as well, screen guard is no way meant to protect ur phone or screen from a drop.

but yeah I agree to you that it does protect from scratches sometimes, so yeah for peace of mind its good :)

Can someone please help me in deciding between Note 4 and Nexus 6.

Currently I am using Note 2. The drawbacks which I feel are present in Note2-

* TouchWiz is too laggy, especially the dialer. It seems samsung does not feel Calling is an important feature in a phone. It is embarrassing when you need to note down a number from somebody and the dialer wont open.

* TouchWiz looks ugly. But this is a personal opinion.

* The market values drops by almost 50% after just a year.

* Note series is always behind on the android version. We have an amazing team of developers for our note. But still we are always playing catchup.

* Android L looks amazing and it would be quite a while for it to be available for our Note4. Also it wont look as good as it does on Nexus6.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] saj2001ind:
You seem to have already decided on Nexus 6..the points which u listed is true... So if u can wait and don't care about s pen and quality screen then go for Nexus 6

for dialer you can ealily replace with exdialer, the most advance dialer with lots of theme including android l...touchwiz launcher can also be replaced by gogle now, and if u dont like sms app of samsung like me then use hangout or go sms with material design

this way you will some what transform note 4 but again nexus is nexus
