The Samsung Galaxy Note 4, the company’s best smartphone yet, is now available in the Philippines and retails for Php37,990.
Launched in Berlin, Germany on September 3, the Galaxy Note 4 boasts a 5.7-inch Quad HD (2560×1440) Super AMOLED display that reproduces clearer and more vivid images with deep contrast, better viewing angles, and response times as fast as a millionth of a second. Samsung’s screens are one of the main reasons its mobile devices are so successful.
Due to its large screen, the refined Multi Window feature is able to maximize the user’s experience providing them with the key to easier multi-tasking. Users can choose how they access their applications with full, split or pop-up screens, and easily change the size and positioning of apps on the screen with one intuitive swipe.

If you’re used to swiping the screen with your fingers, wait till you discover the Enhanced S-Pen which gives you a superb touch and feel experience and lets you distinguish the slightest nuances in writing and press sensitivity. The S-Pen also features the Photo Note and Smart Select which helps make you more productive when scribbling notes for work and lets you do many things faster and with even greater precision.
Camera
The Galaxy Note 4 also sports an advanced camera system that is able to reproduce brighter and clearer images.
The device is equipped with a 16 megapixel rear-facing camera featuring a Smart Optical Image Stabilizer that counter-balances camera shake and automatically extends exposure time in dark settings. In addition, a 3.7 megapixel front-facing camera with f1.9 offers a default 90 degree shooting angle and up to 120 degree wide angle so users can take the best group shots with friends.
Battery
The Note 4 is kept up and running by a 3,220mAh battery. The company said it considered power consumption when it designed the latest Note. With the Fast Charging feature and Ultra Power Saving Mode, the Galaxy Note 4 charges faster and ensures that users don’t run out of power when they need it most. With the Note 4 users can go from an empty battery to half full in about 30 minutes, Samsung said.
The Galaxy Note 4 also comes equipped with multiple microphones and an improved speaker phone for better noise cancellation when speaking in loud environments.
