Samsung
Galaxy Note 4 comes to finally add the last seemingly missing piece of the
puzzle - the exclusive design. A metal frame and a curved glass over the screen
along with a refined faux leather back work together to make the latest tablet
one of the handsome pieces of hardware around. And as you can see in the list
below, Samsung didn't have to make compromises elsewhere.

The first
QHD AMOLED screen and the first Snapdragon 805 smartphone to go global as well
as the best S Pen yet - the list of things for Galaxy Note 4 owners to brag
about is certainly not a short one. But a flagship's worth is not in the number
of exclusive features - the areas where it fails count double against it. And while
the Galaxy Note 4 has very few things to be ashamed of, it's our duty to check
against any nasty surprises.
