Like i have said sooo many times before....the Note 4 is one of my main reason i can afford to skip many new devices that have not met all my expectations. This phone is a work horse and one of the best Sammy has ever made. Yes i think Sammy can make an updated Note 4 with current 2017 specs, keep the removable battery but increase it to about 4000mAh, keep the 5.7" to

    Hope we get Android 7.0 because the UK never got Note 5 and we know what happened to Note 7 sadly. So the only Note you can get in the UK is the Note 4. There's devices with 2gb of RAM that can run Nougat so hopefully on 3GB of Ram the Note 4 will run smoothly.

      Shadow Snypa786, 23 Mar 2017Then the Note 5 should get updated as much and as quick but... moretrue bruh.....

        AnonD-632062, 23 Mar 2017I totally agree! Note 4 is truly one of the best smartphone... moreIf only it had a proper fingerprint sensor not the swipe one that debuted on the Galaxy S5 it's definetly my best device to this day.

        They should keep the body and design exactly the same and have the latest Exynos 8895 with the 20 core GPU, 4 or 6gb ram, and the fast auto focus camera in the S7 edge and I will definetly buy it.

        Waterproofing is not a must I rather have a removeable battery.

            It's out for unlocked UK devices, downloading it right now. Hope no issues or bugs.

              I wish they just put that leftover Exynos and snapdragon chips from note7 into the best note body ever and call it note4s. My note4 still work perfectly however running new games 2016-2017 put the device in very hot position(still no lag but rreally hot).

Even with 3 spare batteries. I can take this off charger at night at 100% and wake up to around 50%. Ridiculous.

                  What a great phone!

                      Lol whenever someone pushes a battery-optimizing update the feedback is usually always negative

                        JordanBaby, 23 Mar 2017'Cause Samsung themselves know it's the best Note they have... moreTrue I really hope this amazing device gets Nougat, it can still hold up to devices being released in 2016 and 2017 even though it came out in 2014.

                        True give me an updated Note 4 with Exynos 8895, a better fingerprint sensor, updated camera, more RAM but keep removeable battery, flat screen, IR Sensor and they can have my money. It be THE device to beat.

                          Meanwhile, my unlocked Note 4 hasn't received an update since July.

                                best phone ever.still beats all of the top of range phones. I have 7 extra spare battery and an external battery charger and almost 10 protective case, and I love my phone I love the sa card slot , removable battery and IR blaster, beat my phone if you can 😁

                                  The amount of support this device gets is astonishing, im on the February Update and I can't wait for the new March one since it adds more stuff than normal. Kudos to Sammy for supporting this great device, I just checked and UK Unlocked Note 4 does not have it yet.
