I like the Note concept but the prices are really going over the roof. I think Samsung and Apple have gone into a race to see which can bring the most ridiculous prices for a phone.
512GB of storage means that one has to be backing it up regularly. If the phone dies, that is a lot data potentially lost.
They do. However, that is the first thing I disable. I want no data of mine in any cloud or jet stream .I haven't had a Samsung phone for a while, but doesn't it backup everything automatically to the cloud like Apple does? So that if the phone dies everything is safe?
I think the stylus is the best feature. I am still on the Note 3 and love the stylus.The Bad
When it comes to a phone engineered for taking Notes, designed for taking Notes, marketed around taking Notes, whose sole differentiator seems to be the ability to take Notes, such that it is named around the function of taking Notes, it seems a bit petty to criticise the very thing that enables the taking of Notes, as something not everybody needs. Surely if they don't need/want a stylus to make Notes, then they have no business considering the device full-stop?
- Not everyone needs a stylus

There is a dual sim version but you need check that the seller is actually selling the dual sim one. We have both versions in the UK.Does anyone know if the UK version will support dual sim as well?
Ha you are correct. Nice flashy graphics and transition effects but clearly Samsung think detail is superfluousI find shocking that it is impossible to find the specifications in the Samsung Website.
I can only speculate that they are doing it to avoid complains from customers when a feature does not work. If it is not officially publicised, it never existed.Ha you are correct. Nice flashy graphics and transition effects but clearly Samsung think detail is superfluous
Every review I've read has the fact it's big down as a negative. Irks me every time.
