**** The Official Note 4 thread ****

[Silly Goose On The Loose]

Maybe HTC have patented it, after all if Apple can patent a rectangle.....

* a rectangle with rounded corners - because that makes all the difference

Still using an S4, couldn't see the point in upgrading to a new phone as the current batch didn't seem like they were worth the outlay. But this phone might just win me over.

Had a note 1 before and loved that phone.

It's mistakes like that that had me thrown out of Patent Lawyer School

How much do you reckon it'll retail for at launch?

Around £600.

The new Exynos 5433 looks to be a beast - http://www.gsmarena.com/exynos_5433_gets_benchmarked_fares_better_than_snapdragon_805-news-8838.php

This should have gone in the Tab S too.

The Korea Times says Samsung will unveil the Note 4 on September 3:

Sounds good. Noticeable improvement on the camera and some form of water resistance and I'm sold as they are the only things I'd give my note 3 up for!

Press invites going out for an Unpacked event on 3/9 in Berlin at 14:00 BST.

 

[Robzere31]

Same here.

Me too, I'm due an upgrade end of September from my note 2,so this should fall just right.

 

[kona786]

I'm hoping for a better camera, no fake metal and a cleaner UI. And small bezels if poss.

 

[e36Adz]

I currently have a Note 3 and as far as the obvious goes in terms of a spec bump and higher res screen, I'd like to see that Samsung logo removed from the front and smaller bezels, a slick design, a better camera and waterproof.

Still on Note 2 here and as much as I love it, I'm getting the itch and this might scratch it.

I'm in exactly the same boat although I'm getting a bit bored of TouchWiz now!

It looks like it may be available to buy very soon after the announcement:

So it looks like we won't see a 64bit handset until next year in the UK. Think I'll try and hold out until the Galaxy S6.

I can't see any reason why i'd want to change my Note 3, its exceptionally quick, the camera is very good and generally everything else on the phone is very good and quick, the screen has great colours etc etc

For most, it makes sense to skip a generation before upgrading. Nothing new there.

Had a Note 3, loved it, it got stolen and I replaced it with a Nexus 5 which I love but if this is a bit special I'm up for one for sure!

Unless the Nexus 6 comes along and temps away with a larger display
