I managed to pick up my Note 4 on Friday. For once, CPW didn't balls up my preorder. I was worried that like last time I'd go in to pick up my new phone and they'd say sorry, the preorder failed, no phone for you sir !
But no, within moments of entering id been served and was walking away with my new phone. And I love it, by far the best phone Samsung have ever made and even better than any other phone ive used. Oh man, that screen !!
Anyway, as soon as I took it out the box I got the expected update, as you can see below. Also, I noticed fast charging on mine was turned off by default. There is no gap at all between the screen glass and metal rim (predictably - sorry trolls). The phone feels smaller than previous Notes. It feels slimmer than the GF's S5 also.
Ive just tested the camera, now that im home from my weekend away, to find at pixel level the images it produces are so close to my old Nokia N8 its a brilliant substitute for the aging Nokia handset. All the Note 4 needed was a xenon flash for it to be a real N8 replacement.

Im one very happy Note 4 owner.

Btw, I also noticed something else.
My Note 4 says on the battery made in Vietnam. But, on the phone is says Yateley, Hampshire GU46 6GG, which appears to be a Samsung QA laboratory within the UK.
It would appear my phone was made in the UK.

But isn't that a problem then? According to the user's guide (
source), the gap is a 'necessary manufacturing feature'! On the other hand, as the guide says that the gap may widen, if you do not have one now, you may get one later.
Joking aside, I may get this phone later, if I can't get my hands on the Nexus 6 before. I have owned several Galaxy models over the past three years but am not sure I am ready to go back to the TouchWiz experience or rather have pure (vanilla) Android.

Sorry but what a silly comment - a previous post showed a gap on his Note 4 , mine has one too. I don't see how this was predictable or how this makes anyone a troll
Anyway enjoy your Note 4

Majority of Samsung phones I have had say Made in Korea or Made by Samsung(as if it was gonna be made by anyone else)

and the battery says Vietnam. The cheaper handsets sometimes are Made in China. @etaab that's rare Made in UK

but does it say that inside the phone?? It might have been just quality checked here but made elsewhere

I wasn't being critical of you or your photography mate but it just wasn't the most vibrant shot to test out the camera

Most camera phones indoors with no flash have grain to the images

Bono no issue mate. It seems issue with uploading the image that reduce the quality. On my mobile, it was great.

But that's the thing with QHD or any saturated smaller screens than what you use on a PC for example images will always look better. Sony,Samsung etc all have image enhancements on their screens which doesn't really give us an accurate display of our photos. Like today I took a photo of the sky and it looked way more bluer than it did on my pc but that was Sony's X Reality or Vivid settings
