These phablets are not toys - they're for DOING.
How it looks and feels are secondary.
Doesn't matter how much house power Meizu put under the hood of their MX4 if you can't do as much with it.
As long as it's looks don't offend me and it lasts more than a day - I'll consider it.
I'm considering this phone...

Dododo, 10 Oct 2014What's with the really stupid comments?

I'm not going to swallow of what u have said that iPhone camera is superior. I'll wait for a comparison review. No hurt feelings though.

Hope that most readers here saw the benchmarks. Whether a fan or not, one cannot deny the powerful performance of iPhone 6 Plus, especially to those who like to call iPhones toys.
That being said, I think the contender for Android king may have just revealed itself. The Meizu MX4, if it can produce and distribute enough, may scare Samsung as the new Android phablet king.

As expected, amazing piece of tech. O and that basemark X benchmark! Even with over twice the resolution, this beast still managed to beat the 6 plus in gaming! That's just insane.

Great review guys, I pre-ordered this as soon as it was made available, should of had it today but for the delay here in the UK. This almost makes up for it, really happy to hear about the way it feels in the hand (from many reviews), and I'm pleased to hear about a slightly less obtrusive touch whiz (though it never really bothered me anyways), all together it seems to be probably the best phone samsung has made, this has just added to the anticipation.

I probably will not end up with Samsung, but have been keeping an eye on Meizu's MX4 Pro, which is supposed to have a fingerprint sensor of good quality.
Good to have competition :)

The Samsung camera app is not the best for photo taking on android, better off with third party

LOL at the gap, ahaha, Samsung fans really swallow anything.
ANYWAY, the camera bump must be listed as a disadvantage, since the iPhone 6 review did.
And oh, region lock is not a disadvantage???

AnonD-66693, 10 Oct 2014While the iPhone 6 plus can easily bend? No thx. What's with the really stupid comments?
The Note 4 camera is improved compared to the previous generation Note, but not near the iPhone 6 Plus quality.
The fingerprint unlock experience on the Note 3 was hit or miss, I hope this one is better. The iPhone has a pretty much perfect fingerprint sensor.
These are the important things for me.
Yes, I do have a 6 Plus, but if the Note 4 was better, I would buy it in a heartbeat. But at a first glance, it's better than the Note 3, but still inferior than the iPhone.

Heads up on page 2, caption says "no camera shutter button" the Samsung camera app gives you the choice between shutter, zoom, and other options for the volume rocker when camera app is open
