Galaxy Note 4 - great phone, busted reveal

For everyone who saw Samsung unpacked this morning, I am sorry. For those who haven't - I am sorry, here it is:

Note: (lol, get it?) conference starts at around 23 min in. The actual conference starts closer to 30 min mark.

 

First of all, I love the device. Seems like Samsung decided on the formula and refined it to perfection with this one. If you don't get shy being seen talking on a shovel-sized device - this phone is for you. Drawing with "Arse" pen is even more pleasurable since you can take snippets from different apps and apply twice as much pressure to the Gorilla Glass 3 covered Quad HD screen while trying to make a call with it.

 

Now to the sad part - the presentation. Do you remember hearing a radio commercial? Sometimes legal information is being played at the end of an ad with pauses cut out in between the letter. That is how this presentation feels. Hosts know their lines, some jokes were passed around and everything would be great, if only they let the audience react. The first "window" for applause appeared about 20 (!) minutes into the presentation. Presenters run through their lines like a kindergarten kid telling a poem to his grandparents. If you are used to subtitles, turn off the sound and use those.

Should I put this into Phones or Tablets..

I don't even see the advantage to these key notes anymore. What Jobs did was fantastic and I would watch them even after the product was released, and I never even bought an Iphone (not that good I guess ;)

Samsung should try something new but sadly Corporations are flooded sheep.
