Samsung Unpacked IFA Episode 2 (2014) - The Galaxy Note 4

 WELCOME BACK TO.....

I have to admit. Samsung had me worried. With the rapid released of the gear smartwatches and variants of the S5, one cant help but to think that the infamous company is getting a little too desperate to squash the competition. However, after watching the IFA Unpacked Episode on Wednesday, I am MORE than impressed with the way things are going for Samsung, at least in the phablet and wearables department..

Without any more hoopla.... Lets get into this shall we?

Now naturally, each new variant of the Note series is guaranteed to have a better camera, increased battery life and those few new features that everyone expects. Samsung does not disappoint. 

the 2014 Galaxy Note has a refined design, innovative display, and features that (I believe) will increase its popularity. The Note is coming with a slightly new soft back material, an All new metal frame (thank you), stronger glass, and the highly acclaimed Touchwiz experience found on the Galaxy S5. 

 Sounds good huh.. well I'm not done..

The Galaxy Note 4 comes with a stunning 2560x1440p Super Amoled Display putting out 550ppi

Translation....

its looks really really really good.

like really...

Also equipped is a newer 16mp camera for the back along with a 3.7mp (up from 2.0mp) camera for the front. and while we are on the camera, Samsung has decided to cater to the Selfie takers of the world and include a wide angle selfie mode in the front facing camera that allows you to take better selfies with friends from a 90 degree angle. A panoramic front facing camera of sorts. Yeah...lol

Also a feature on the rear facing camera that i believe is notable (see what i did there. lol) is the angle adjust feature..
Say for example I'm in class, and the instructor is writing things on the board (dry erase/chalk/overhead/whatever) and instead of scrambling to take notes, take a picture instead. Cool? well what if I'm sitting close to the door or at the far back corner of class and the picture i took is at an angle where i may not be able to make some things out on the board.... Not Cool...(im a witness)

well with the note 4 camera's angle adjust feature, i can take that picture from one of those many odd and off angels and the camera will adjust the photo to make it flat, or in other words as if i were standing directly in front of the display board...
now it may drive teachers a little crazy to see all these cameras in the air but still...its a wonderful feature nonetheless.

Now

Lets talk about the S pen. 

its just about one of the single solitary features that the Note is known for. So naturally Samsung has made some well needed improvements, to make the s pen more commonplace with Note users.

So when you detach the pen, your Air Command feature comes up (on the note 3) right?

now you have a new command which is called Smart Select. which allow you to take small focused "screenshots", if you will, and share them with friends or your blog or personal library. this is personally a feature that I'm looking forward to, only because i change my wallpaper like 4-68 times a day. (exaggeration....kinda) 

Of course like the S5, the Note 4 also comes with a/an.....

• Fingerprint Scanner 
• Ultra Power Saving Mode (also from the S5 software)
• Enhanced Voice Recording (from up to 8 different directions)
• Increased Noise Cancellation
• Fast Charging Software (0-50% power in 30 mins)
•  Samsung's new multi-tasking software
• 50GB of Dropbox Storage for 2 years 

For your viewing pleasure i have a official video from Samsung Describing the phone itself in much better detail everything i have explained and its here 

To keep things short and my posts more frequent, i will divide up all of the different things that Samsung announced at IFA (Berlin) this year.

so with a promise of more post to come. i bid you a temporary farewell as i research all of these devices!

The Lg G3

     

 Quick Blog!

        Released last week, The Lg G3 has already proven to be an awesome device. Now-a-days with flagship phones pretty much having similar specifications, the best way to sell a phone now, apparently, is to equip a device with one (or more) qualities that consumers just wont see on any other devices, or operating systems in this particular case.

I won't bore you with all the specs, being that they aren't much different from other popular devices at the moment.

but i will point out some things that make the LG G3 unique...

        1. Micro sd card expansion (up to 128gb) - this is something that I am so GLAD to see becoming common place in smartphone specifications. People want the option to have more storage without having to pay ridiculous prices for devices that do not allow for memory expansion *cough* (iPhone) *cough* oh....excuse me...


        2. Laser Auto-Focus - the G3 uses a laser to focus extremely fast and allow for "one-touch picture capturing". I'm just hoping it will respond with an reasonable amount of speed when it comes to specialty photo settings like HDR and background blur features...we shall see


        3. a beautiful 1440x2560, 5.5 inch True HD-IPS display with a pixel density of 534ppi (pixels per square inch) and Gorilla Glass 3...if you are in to this kind of thing, not much else needs to be said, if you don't know what im talking about...here is a translation....

its one of the best screens you can look at in 2014 (with the exception of the "Oppo Find 7 and 7a, which I will talk about later)

        4. New "Knock" Lock screen - Normally with android devices you have the option of using a pattern or password to lock your phone. Quite handy, with any device. But it depends on what you are doing or have touched before unlocking your phone that could leave its security at risk. Fingerprints do not lie. Aaaaand with most smart phone users, we like to keep our passwords simple for quick and seamless access, which can also tell on us, and let anyone into our phone...

       The G3 gives you the option to fool everyone again with its "Knock" lock screen. just like you would with a password, you can set up a knock password, where you would simply tap on a certain area of the screen (preferably with one knuckle) and unlock your phone. no passwords, no patterns, and no fingerprints. unless of course you have active knuckles...

I'm not judging anyone...

much.....

that's all the information I'm going to give, because i want to leave something to the imagination.

I've probably already spoiled most of the surprises, but that what tech blogs are for is it not?

in any event.

these have been your technological announcements for Monday June 2nd, 2014. 

please govern yourselves accordingly
