*Nexus 6 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4*
*Battle of the beasts!* Written component with more info here! goo.gl/zK5s8E
Let us know which one reigns supreme in your heart! Thanks guys :)
Battle of preference. Nexus 6 ftw
Note 4 beats this silly phablet.
***** exactly everyone knows this is no competition. R.A. Yarrelland many of my friends can agree with you the note line is the gold standard.
You buy a nexus you buy a hundred phones. Custom roms and kernels give you so many options.
Ja Ke options to do nothing that the note can already do. Extend battery life? Check. Useful gold standard productive features check. High end display? Check. Top performing camera? Check.
The Note 4 is VASTLY superior. Nexus elitist hate the fact that the Note 4 is better in almost every turn. Stock Lollipop is very boring, Nexus 6 have terrible battery life, the worst screen, and above all extremely huge. There is no way the Nexus win, deny it all you want Samsung will always remain better with features people care about.
Yes, I agree.
features people care about? Samsung is the king of gimmicks. Touchwiz over stock ? You are in the minority there. Nexus 6 does not have terrible battery life, and the worst screen ? No its not. You're talking out of your ass.
***** why don't you go away!
cyuat1976 this is really stupid that instead of just iOS vs Android, people are whining within Android itself.
***** No one said touchwiz was a battery hog, but it does lagg as touchwiz uses a shit load of ram.
Why even do this?
The Note series will always crush the Nexus series.
I just went and picked up my note 4. It was such a difficult decision between the Note 4, Nexus 6, and the Z3. But I have to hand it to Samsung, I have no regrets passing up on the nexus 6 and the z3.
+Mac Lumen not if you hate touchwizz and or oversized phones(Nexus 6) i would choose z3 anyday over the note 4 and Nexus 6 not to say they are bad phones Just not for me
***** Z3 is practically the best option next to an S5 or note 4. Just because the Galaxy is better does not make something else crap.
Boo hoo z3 has s801 instead of s805.
It's also 1080p so not huge difference in on screen graphics.
The display is far from sub par. It's fantastic.
The camera is still one of the bests.
The stereo speakers beat the M8.
The battery life is great. The build quality design and water resistance are top notch.
It's a Greta device and overall better than the G3 and M8.
Samsung superior screens, camera tuning, and features are the only thing giving them the bigger edge.
Sony used to be fat behind but are catching up fast
***** No. You're the one being an exaggerated fanboy.
Yes Amoled is the best. That does not mean you can't have a nice LCD device. That's stupid. Plus it's triluminos.
And it comes very saturated but you can adjust the saturation and white balance on the Sony phones too.
And it has a really high brightness that does decent outside. Not the best but plenty good.
And xreality does make some things a little sharper and vivid.
So yes. It's a great display.
And obviously s805 would have been way better. Duh!
But that does not make the s801 bad. It's still a good chip and still has the z3 running fast.
And wrong. The speakers are to notch with more clarity and equal Volume to the m8.
Build quality is good.
And battery life is great.
And again. Camera! It could still use some refinement in processing but it's still one of the best phone cameras
***** That's cute. While you are sitting here being a whining samsung fanboy and bashing something you never used. The actual users are enjoying changing the gamma to the heavier or more toned down settings.
Again on a great device with amazing speakers, camera, build, profile, battery, Playstation support, and UI.
***** You foolish fanboys never quit and never think.
I never said the camera was at its full potential. It's taken many generations for Sony to get it up to par and it still could use a lot more tweaking and would have greatly benefitted from ois.
However....all those details included do not change the fact that the camera has a good enough sensor to overcome most of that and retain being one of the best on the market. Especially with more manual settings in use.
And I don't think it's the best feel. I actually think the curved soft touch back of the S5 was an outstanding comfort and idea for usage and ergonomics.
And you can whine, deny, bash, troll, and lie all you wish. The displays of the z2 and z3 are very very good displays. Just not the best. Z and z1 were a little more behind the curve.
It's not as accurate as the note 4 in its selected sliders but because comparable to LCDs but with more flexibility and contrast and choice of gamma. And it still works very well out doors.
1080p is plenty sharp. And the xreality helps smooth things out.
We get it. S5 LTE-A and the Note 4 have the best displays on mobiles in the world. Followed by the regular S5 and possibly the Note 3, before the iPhone comes in with possibly best LCD.
That does not make any other kind of display terrible or any saturation crap.

+cyuat1976 most people arnt tech obsessed like you, and probably don't even know how to root or wutevr, and besides, since touchwiz is SO much better than lollipop, why put a launcher on your Note 4? 😏 are you agreeing stock fast android is better than laggy touchwiz? 😏😏😏

I can deal with touchwiz for all the other wins.
SizzlingGuatemalan not exactly tech obsessed..
Armando Bustos Man are you crazy turbo charging on Nexus 6 it wins the faster charging challenge.
I just bought the note 4 today at Verizon. God im in love with it already. Can't put it down
Got mine yesterday cant let go of it
Yes!
cyuat1976 Dude shut the fuck up. You're the reason why depression exist in these comment sections.
cyuat1976 happy because someone actually said something nice about the Note 4?
***** and what the fuck are you doing?
And the winner is.....
The iPhonepad s mini 7. Now with dna scanner, to make your life easier when you're unlocking your phone as we'll put it in a private database, because we care. Now with our best battery ever featuring fast drain, reaching nearly 18 hours of screen off time!
Basically it's a Samsung screen and Sony camera, but from Apple.
Oh and we changed the charger again, because we can ;)
Lol
Lmfao
we can get free apps, free music, free movies, free shows, customize our device inside and out. We have more than one choice for a phone. instead of the saaaaame shit everybody else has. WE HAVE AN EARPHONE JACK! since we have a large number of choices for a lhone, we don't have to pay an arm and a leg just because there's a fuckn apple on the back. our phones don't look like feminine tick tacks, oh and did I mention we don't have to pay for music. we also don't have to break into our devices to get free awesome shit. Apple is made for stupid that just wanna follow the next guy.
Every time I need to get a phone review you guys are pound for pound the best at it!
I've been heavily debating getting the Nexus 6 vs the Note 4, and I can't believe what I'm about to say, but I think Samsung's software is gonna win this decision as much as I generally hate Android skinning. They've just done an amazing job of making software that puts the spen to excellent use, certainly way more so than with my Note 2, and I don't think I could ever give up my spen no matter how much I want a Nexus 6.
100$ difference between the two in USA. 50$ in Canada! 750 freaking bucks are you nuts Google???
What were they thinking. If it were cheaper like the nexus 5....
cyuat1976 i don't mean cheaper than nexus 5 but 650$ would be OK
The nexus 6 seems like a huge jump from my s4. I have time to make a decision or remove these options from the equation before my July upgrade. The nexus 6 screen looks better imo. Hardware-wise everything else goes to the note 4. Stock definitely looks better than touchwiz. I will have to slap a ROM on the note 4. It basically comes down to battery and performance overall. I think the Note 4 deserves the 2014 Phablet crown.
Hugh jump in price, still can't compete with note 4
***** you clearly never held a note 4.
cyuat1976 You have clearly never held a Nexus 6.
Mikail Kraft you have clearly never held the note 4.
cyuat1976 who says i haven't
was waiting for this comparison for a long time! thank you!
As an iPhone user since 2007 (the original and first iPhone) I am appalled at how stupid all these butthurt inner-Android fanboys are.
Isn't the best thing about Android the ability to make your device your own? If you don't like Touchwiz, change it. I've never owned an Android device but will soon (Note 4 on its way via Fed Ex) and even I know this because it's common Android knowledge. I don't know how to do it, but people make it seem so easy so I'm sure it's not a daunting task.
I've never seen so many "I shouldn't have to change an overlay/UI to another because it's bad." You're literally going backwards against yourselves and going back in time. If you want to be locked into one shitty UI, get an iPhone if not stop bitching and create the phone you'd like.
With that being said the Note 4 WIPES THE FLOOR with every device in the world, fact. And unless you travel all the time you're an idiot for buying an unlocked phone for $700-900. There is no benefit to buying it like that straight up.
Well... If you are planning on rooting you may regret getting a Samsung phone due to Knox. If you plan on stay in stock, you made an excellent choice as the note series has so many great features.
"Already rooted" As in you rooted it? Or T-Mobile sold it rooted?
There is actually buying it upfront. You save more. Heck you dont even have to buy right away but after a month prices will go down
Well, with lolipop onwards, you should maybe go back to iOS,as android is getting worse and worse with every version,
Root apps whose sole purpose is to track you, removal of rooting unless you unlock the bootloader and many more worse things.
"I've never owned an Android device but will soon"
jizz! kappa
touchwiz has core processes that never close...
I had the note 3 and many Samsung before that....I decided to go with nexus 6 with T-Mobile I love it. There's no bloatware on the T-Mobile version its fast snappy. I have to admit the camera and video is awesome my friend has the note 4 it beautiful... All I could say is you won't go wrong with either phone. There both good
Ok
Gonna go with Note 4. The Nexus 6 from AT&T already having screen, software issues with their big screen phones where they had to ship back. At least Samsung phones are more tried and have been around longer with a better rep. Not saying Nexus phones wont, but will take time.
They had a problem with some of them on KitKat and not lollipop is why they were ship back! Lol minor gripe! Camera rated by DXomark on the nexus as one of the best on an android phone making the top 5! Note 4 wasn't there. They do cameras, professionally and are based off of factual test not opinions. Lollipop does have a bug which is hurting battery life! But to get over 24 hours on any smartphone is acceptable! Automateit will increase the battery life on any device if this is your problem! The 805 is tweaked in the nexuse 6 which makes it slightly better then the standard 805 version!
Thanks cleo williams for making my decision that much harder! Just kidding. I'm gonna get one. either the Note 4 or the Nexus 6.
I really love my note 4. It wasn't hard decision for, so many things I can do with it.
My main problem with the Note is the Samsung UI... its known for being the worst on an Android device.... at least HTC's is much better. The pure Android experience though of the Nexus and the superior UI and much better version of the OS made me not ever consider the Note 4. Though the old stylus has limited value I just couldn't see myself going back and using those things again like in the Palm days. I have the Nexus 6 now and VERY impressed... can't imagine finding anything better.
My don't english :D
Hey Josh you left out probably one of the most crucial differences. The 1 handed operation on the Note 4, which doesn't exist on the Nexus....... With the size of these phones being IMPOSSIBLE to ignore, I'm truly amazed that this was left out of this comparison. Literally EVERY single reviewer has raised questions about the size of the Nexus. However it's less of a concern on the Note 4 because the keyboard can be shifted to accommodate a left or right handed user. It would be great to see a follow up video with this mentioned........ You, Michael Fisher, and MKBHD are the best reviewers out there. Keep up the good work.
I've been using note 4 over a month now and I never have I been so pleased with my smartphone purchase! I can say that with a confidence. Trust me, people. YOU WON'T REGRET! I'm a phone addict and can't live 30 minutes without my phone but Note 4 never lag even though it's running NOT TRACK ME, HD live wallpaper, AppLock, Clean Master, and many other apps running in the background. Not to mention its AMAZING battery life.
I love how civil these topics are between android lovers. It's like speaking over the topic with reason other than iOS vs Android arguments.
I hate to admit, the note 4 looks better has a better camera, better battery, a lot more functionality but fucking touchwiz, hopefully when it gets lollipop it actually becomes worth using. Stock android is nice BUT THE compromises just to use it. Why is there compromise to everything I hate it.
The note 4 IS BETTER.
why do so much people dont like touchwiz? can you tell me? i love it!
Der Ewige Wanderer I think the biggest complaints are that it's a resource hog that can cause even bleeding-edge hardware to sputter around, and it's also kind of a mess as far as being intuitive and well-organized. If the features of TouchWiz could somehow be redesigned with Google's attention to intuitive functionality, then it would be amazing, but it's clear that Samsung doesn't always know how to implement their great ideas very well.
What's the deal with touchwiz? Everyone uses Nova anyway.
Daniel Korolev True, but it permeates throughout the system to all of the system apps like dialer and contacts and settings, and it's annoying to see Samsung force their software on users when Android is all about choice.
I'll put it this way. Good or bad, the Nexus 6 is by far the most talked about flagship of the year through out the mobile tech community; even quickly overshadowing the whole "bend gate" thing. Love it or hate it, the Nexus 6 has been and still is on everyone's lips, blogs and comments. Google is genius in the way they're pushing the Nexus line mainstream, Nexus 6 ftw. #nexusnation
Picked up the Note 4, absolutely in love with it (coming from Oppo Find 7).
In the end, N6 had only 5.0 as an edge over the Note. So for those in the market for a large phone, I'd recommend Samsung. A well thought out package, with TouchWiz being somewhat less annoying than before, and in fact well designed with a large form factor in mind.
That is a really good review... Enjoyed it... Definitely going for the Note 4...
If only Google didn't make the 6 a phablet, all these people would have liked it even more... including myself.
:)
i wish all the nexus 6 hardware specs were in the Moto X 2014.. i really like the moto x but the camera just doesnt do it for me... I love the infrared sensors to view notifications.. its genius.. Im still stuck between getting a moto x or the n6.. I'm also considering the one plus one for really cheap (I live in Malaysia, its readily available)
***** I'd get the OPO if it's available. It's endless possibilities really...
hmmmm you're really tempting me there, mate. its only RM 1,099 here. which is about 320 USD?
***** that's a no-brainer. I'm in near where you are here in Indonesia, the Moto X (2014) isn't even available yet. The OPO won't ever be...
I don't have a problem with TouchWiz. In fact it brings to user most of the software innovations that make it so much better than anything else. Such as Multi Tasking, SPen, Camera tools etc. Ok so some of its icons are a bit old now and yes sometimes there is a minuscule lag.... but it is worth it. My understanding is that if you remove TouchWiz then you make it no different than any other Android phone. It is like buying a 7 seater car and removing two of the seats to make it the same as all of the 5 seater cars.... just silly or you are buying the Note4 for the wrong reasons
The only thing the nexus has over the note is the front facing speakers.
No sd card slot
No removable battery
No features taking advantage of the screen
No IR blaster
No thanks.
Would love to see a Nexus 5 vs Nexus 6 app opening comparison...
Both without encryption? Then the nexus 6 would be slightly faster (animations still gata do their sexy thing) with encryption on the 6 and none on the 5, the 5 is slightly faster.
both without encryption...everything else completely stock on 5.0 now that would be interesting
David Robles The nexus 6 is bound to do better.. It is encrypted by default, thats why it isn't so zippy when opening apps... dont get me wrong, its still fast.. but a side to side comparison will show the difference. Another reviewer, Erica Griffin has shown this with a comparison between the n6 and note 4.. note 4 was faster because it isn't encrypted.
In India the base model of nexus 6 costs around $740 and note 4 costs $920
I get why people don't like touchwiz, but once you have turned off all the things you don't use, it get better
Great review. Very professional and not biased. Thanks!
I really like what Google has done with the Nexus 6, except I think they could have done better with simple things like battery life.
If I get one of these devices it would definitely be the Note 4.
7000 to a milli, my nigga you stay on that grind Kidd.
This is the first time that I thought that a Samsung device looked nicer than a Nexus
ill go with SGN4. choose ur own android giveaway.... love it
It's a fact note 4 reigns supreme
Yes, I agree.
To me, the Note is superior to the Nexus in all categories but speed, since Touchwiz slows it down. But I'll take that with multitasking any day.
Josh your great keep these videos coming!
I don't understand why everyone complains about touchwiz. I get you might want a 'cleaner' feel of stock Android, but for me I just install a custom launcher and I'm good to go. I like the customization of touchwiz on my Note 4, and in my opinion it doesn't really get in the way if I don't want to use a certain feature.
Let's not pretend android gets sluggish after using another launcher
Marshall Halfstack I completely agree. Finally, someone understands my point of view
Better battery, camera, and the ability to do several tasks at once - the Note 4 is the Victor here. Josh step up and make a choice, that's what you do in a comparison.
i actually like touchwiz and it doesnt lag like it use to i have galay avant is 1.2ghz and 1.5 gigs of ram and it doesnt even lag (i turned of flipboard and animations) other than tht its great and there is nothing wrong with touchwiz, pplmjust have to complain about something
Great video guys. Keep em coming!
I will wait for Note 5, because I like the direction Samsung has take Note series to.
I have a nexus 6 and a note 5 and I love both. One being pure and one being different. I use the Nexus for media and gaming to take advantage of that screen and my note 5 is my daily. Both are very enjoyable. Never got a chance to toy with the note 4 but it definitely is a great device.
For productivity, tools and bussiness stuff, Galaxy Note 4, definetly. I just love it, Samsung has done good job with it. :)
Really want to go with the note 4. Just not front facing speakers is what sucks because I'm on an HTC One atm and I love it. Let's break down what phone to get:
Note 4:
- S Pen
- Multi Tasking
- Removable SD and battery
- One Handed Use
- Smaller then Nexus 6 ( for me, I don't want that big of a phone, already don't want over a 5" screen)
Nexus 6:
- Android L
- Front facing speakers
Hmm....
Great reviews and comparisons as always!
I think the note 4 is best. The nexus has a bigger screen but that's about it. Samsung adds features into the phablet. If you don't like touchwiz then download cyanogenmod
I prefer the simple, pure, functional and no added "bullshit" philosophy of the nexus line. That's why I got the Nexus 6. And it's a breeze!
Dannie Kamete hOW'S THE BATERRY WHCIH IS THE ONLY FACTOR HOLDING ME BACK
***** The battery is average. Not bad, but not amazing either. I reckon you will need to charge once a day. BUT, there is the power saving mode that you can turn on in order to significantly increase your battery life. All in all, don't choose to not buy the phone based on battery life, in my opinion :-)
I'll just wait for nexus 7
Yup, that
The display on the Nexus 6 is generally a lower quality version of the one found on the Note 4, the Nexus 6 display gets extremely pink when you turn down the brightness
Would have been nice to demonstrate the single handed options available on these devices
Android authority should compare flagship phones from time to time, that'd be cool and interesting
I've had every Nexus device and I absolutely love everything about them, but I got to say Samsung did a better job in every aspect this time around.
I have been on the edge about trading my Note 4 for a Nexus 6 in order to prep myself for my potential Project Fi invite, but reading comments and watching countless comparison videos, I just can't get myself to part with my beloved Note 4. I have had it since launch, and it's just all around a really, really good phone. I made a commitment when I bought it to have a phone that would easily be relevant a year later and unless Samsung drops a bombshell on us about flexible screens, will stay relevant for at least another year after that even.
In my opinion, HTC started a ,movement. With htc's boom sound(front facing speakers) now quite a few devices have implemented that into their design. Plus HTC had blink feed. Which now has been added to quite a few devices. Go HTC!!
I'm a google fan, and the Note 4 is definitely superior. The only thing the Nexus 6 has over the Note 4, is that it gets Lollipop before any of the Samsung devices.. Still Touchwiz is pretty sweet, even on Kitkat 4.4.4-Lollipop will have to wait.
this is a really good video, probably the beat on this channel
If you're like me and still deciding on whether to choose a Nexus 6 or the Note 4. Get the Note 4.
I have been a Nexus User since the first Google Nexus S about 5 years ago. I've always loved the stock android experience. my last phone was the nexus 4 and I wanted to upgrade to the Nexus 5, Until I heard about the nexus 6 coming out. So I waited...
Then when I finally got the Nexus 6 I was disappointed. Yes it was stronger. Yes it has a better camera. But that's basically it. Switching from the Nexus 4 to the Nexus 6, the only thing that changed was the screen size. after ONE day with the Nexus 6 I IMMEDIATELY returned it and got the Note 4. And I couldn't be happier. I sacraficed the stock android. But at least I got a phone that actually felt like it was worth $600+. all these new features are worth it.
UNLESS, you're buying the phone for someone who is NOT techy and merely wants a phablet, then the nexus 6 is the way to go.
The Nexus 6 is faster and smoother,so N6 all day 4 me.
minico featurewise the Note 4 wins , i agree it has a better camera,exp.storage,battery.
Both are good phablets,i would go for the Nexus 6 just cause it is AOSP powered.
Just got my Note 4 and I am overly satisfied with it. No lags and charges lightning fast ☺
I currently have the Note 3 LTE and it has been my daily driver for the past twelve months i haven't put it down since i got it lol but having said that I'm so tempted to upgrade to the Note 4 because i cannot imagine using the latest and greatest flagship devices without my s-pen so i think that pretty much say's it for me, never really been a lover of the nexus devices and to that end I'll upgrade to the best flagship Samsung ever made, the NOTE 4 of cause !!,,, ;)
My take is a little different. I think the Note 4 wins easily (that's what I went with after debating). In 12-24 months time, the nexus 6 would probably be the better option (updates!!!) but seems no one ever keeps their devices for that long anymore.
Can't wait for paranoid android on the nexus 6. Best custom rom to date followed by omni and aokp
As much as I love the Nexus line, and pure Android, I still think the Note 4 is probably the best choice for money. I hate TouchWiz, but overall, in regards to performance and functionality, Note 4 takes the cake. The Nexus 6 is just a turbo charged over sized Nexus 5 in the shape of a Moto X unfortunately.... And that, to me, is NOT worth almost $700....
Seriously want both of these phones for like 2 weeks to test them. I'll just sleep at AT&T to try them 24/7
For me, it comes down to the battery life and note 4 does have a removable back but nexus 6 is less expensive. Its a hard decision to make!
With no expandable SD or removable battery on the N6, I can't see any reason for me to go with that device now. Those are two big points in my book. Thanks for this information.
Definitely the best review comparing these two phones. Great job. I still prefer the nexus 6 over note 4. Better software, clean interface, and cheaper.
Multi windows. I'm sold
Top android source on youtube!
if you talk about screens, you forgot to say that the home-back-recent buttond in nexus 6 are on-screen which take up the extra size......
Great report Joshua!
Quit complaining. Wiz can be replace with custom roms
Was that the guy from Confustion?
Note 4 easily hits ~8 hours of screen on time on Auto -5 here...
I know some friends of mine, that usually get around 6.5 hours of screen on time on Auto -5, with around 15-20% battery left when they hit the bed.
The Note 4 is a great example how a supersized smartphone should be done.
Graphics: nexus 6 > note 4
Everything else: note 4 > nexus 6 along with any other phone
I've had every Nexus but the Nexus 4 and currently have a 2nd Gen Moto X Pure Edition, but I'd choose the Note 4 over the Nexus 6.
Note 4 takes this without much effort. Especially in Canada where they are the same price.
I always like your review... Keep it up dude..
Sorry for the stupid question but will the new Lollipop update on the Note 4 take off touchwiz or will it be mixed with lollipop? still kinda learning about his.
Note 4 and Nexus 6 are both great phones because I'm an Android fanboy who loves stock android and loves Samsung's hardware.
Note 4 is better
Nexus 6 has a huge screen but doesn't have features to take advantage of the extra real estate.
I absolutely love my new nexus 6.1 week of usage, and by far beat phone I've ever used.
No point of these half assed vs videos, if there is no single winner in the end.
Great comparison. I think the choice is quite simple, you either like Touchwiz or you don't. I don't so the decision is easy, Nexus 6. While the Note 4 has a few features to take advantage of the big display, I don't think that those features are polished enough. Also Samsung devices will usually degrade faster than others when it comes to performance. Touchwiz is still too heavy and has some ways to go. Stock Android is very beautiful too. Definitely the Nexus 6 for me.
The nexus 6 battery has already been vastly improved with custom kernels and Roms and the cameras image processing still needs work as Google puts 0 effort on the Google camera... By the time this all gets fixed is when all the spring phones come out... M9, galaxy s6
i still don't know what to choose note4 or nexus 6
I nearly threw up seeing touchwiz looking exactly the same as on S2... Those ugly gingerbread icons.. bloat bloat boat
Its nothing like S2, there's a lot less bloat and some of the Samsung apps is now optional. They are definitely moving in the right direction. Besides install Google Now, Nova or any other launcher you like and you don't need to see touchwiz.
Lyndon, no thanks... I'll never come back to Sam after S2/S3.. This is exactly why I left it... installing apps to overlay the overlay to make it look stock.. Plus I rarely make notes on the phone...
Nexus 6 and Note 4 both too big for me (had the Note 2 before). Loving the S5 running CM12. Smooth as a Nexus :-) plus I can swap batteries, add storage, water proof (ish) and a great camera.
Did you get the Nexus 6?
LOL. There are definitely differences. And you are singling out samsung for something true of most companies and then exaggerating it
Differences must be written on the screen until we compare the size of the battery, especially Unfortunately, all the factories battery weakness
Dont see a reason to buy a nexus when there's note 4. For a few extra dollars u get so much more functionality even without sacrificing performance!
I would choose the note 4 over the nexus 6 only cause I can remove the battery and use a micro sd also samsung has a better display.
Anybody else notice him showing RUclips comedian David So?
Note 4 is better in hardwe, but nexus 6 is the best in software. I prefer nexus 6.
Nexus fajny ale ta wielkość ekranu aż prosi się o multiwindow
Beniamin Sękiewicz Mam multuwindow w moim SG Note 3. Uruchomiłem je tylko raz - chciałem zobaczyć jak to działa. W ogóle tego nie używam.
No
Lol software? Like the things the spen can do for you. You can copy someones post from the youtube app. Dude USE the phone. Realize hpw much software samsung has in it.

Did you see this Rhyse Gillum
Nah bout to check it out tho good looks
Yeah.
I have a few questions that practically NO ONE has touched on.
1.) Does the Nexus 6 only have one microphone, Limiting recording capabilities to Hi-Fi Mono sound, or is that noticeable hole on the LED flash ring another microphone?
I'm inclined to believe that it does not, as the settings menu for the video recorder doesn't give the option to select how audio is captured (front facing stereo, wind resistant, true stereo ect).
2.) Does the Nexus 6 support TV OUT? If yes, then by what method(s) (MHL, Slim port, chromecast doesn't count as you need a WiFi connection to make it work)?
***** thanks for the reply man. Question, where exactly are the 4 mics? Ive seen the one on the back, but haven't seen the rest. Mono recording and no stereo, that makes absolutely NO sense to me. I just don't see the logic.
***** oh OK, so then there's 3 mics and not 4? Or I guess there's 2 mics in the speaker grill, one at the top, and one at the bottom?
***** thank you sir!
It has 3 mics. Bottom back. Flash ring. Bottom speaker.
For me android lollipop is not a complete version and I rather stay at kitkat
Customizable cases should be a thing, real leather cases to replace the fake leather case on the note 4!
I just ordered a note 4, i currently own the nexus 6 but i figured id get more features with the note 4, plus my charging port is messed up on my nexus and it cant be repaired without a board replacement (its something to do with the voltage regulators not the port its self)
Thanks guys. I say note4. Had it for a week now. Glad I didn't get the Nexus.
I wanted so much for the Nexus to win. But after my Droid Bionic from way back that gave me fits with its inferior battery life I vowed to that day to always get a phone with a removable battery. Got the Note 2 afterwards and my next phone. ........Note 4!
