Anyone know if the Note 4 will receive the new Android Lolipop update? This will be my first Samsung device and was wondering how has Samsung been with keeping their devices up to date.
It will, anything beyond that is a toss up

I hope so. I saw the new Nexus 6 release and can't wait to see the Note 4 running on Lolipop.
The last Samsung phone I owned was the S4. After that came Knox and I didn't want anything to do with Samsung. But software updates weren't horrible. They also weren't great in timing.
As a previous Note 3 owner, I sure hope it comes faster than Kit-Kat did.
Samsung already stated that Android L 5.0 (Lollipop) will be coming to Galaxy S5 and Note 4 the end of Nov or first part of Dec.

If Samsung didn't release 7 million phones and tablets each year we might be able to get it a little sooner.

Seriously. They are the new Nokia. There must be literally 1,000 models.

So we'll get it in 2017 most likely.
Id say more like 2020
Check sammobile last firmware for n910c was 01 of August and for n910f some day in July.
So guess when
Haha so ironic. Maybe we will got it nearly 2020.
I'd say 2220. And it'll be buggy and kill our batteries.

M? what about 5.1.1? Samsung, I hate you.
M will come in the beginning of 2016 in a version so bad that it will make your phone useless to celebrate the release of the S7.
Yes I'm a seer lol.
When?We wait Lollipop 5.1.1 and who know when we get,so M come but we dont be live or our note 4.
Android Lollipop was also confirmed to the note 2. xD
What I find very instructive is that GS5 isn't in the list. It will not even have 18 months of updates.
IMHO, if Samsung don't want us to buy their devices, they can just tell us. It's far more simple that showing us at every occasion that they don't care about their customers.
Android 6.0? I'm still waiting for damn 5.1.1.
I think Samasung talk some sh ite
Its gonna be a while before Huwaeis Nexus 6 or Note 6 (hopefully with microsd and IR, replacable battery comes out). So Note 4 with Android M would be sweet. Hopefully it will release by new year!

I'll believe it when I see it. Samsung can't even clean up their act when it comes to Lollipop.

Incredible to me how much time and emotion is spent feeding the rumor mill.
Keep dreaming, this is freaking unbelievable QUALCOMM's Note 4 already in 5.1.1 and Exynos which is the international Unlocked, nothing, Note 4 will never see android M other than ported rom, or CM
Hi guys,
I'm thinking about buying a huawei mate S and sell my note 4. What do you think is the mate s worth it ?
No...
What is better about Mate S in your opinion? Beside fingerprint sensor I can't think of anything...

No TW out the box
I like the build quality,the Software and the reviews say its a good device with a good performance. And i dont use the S pen often
Its like saying I wanna sell my Audi Q7 to buy a Nissan Qashqai.
I'd rather have TW over Huawei's UI, even if TW is filled with bloat, I use a lot of it from SNote, SHealth to Peel Remote, Smart Manager etc...
Going to a Huawei Mate S from a Note 4 is downgrade in:
- Camera
-Display
-SOC
-Battery
-Local Support
-Updates (you think Samsung take long? The Mate 7 only just got Android L last month)
etc...
Don't do it. Just don't.

How much of a downgrade would it be, TW and Samsung stock apps are not that much important for me and from what i saw there is not much Difference in camera quality between them. And in reviews they say that the battery is enough for a full day
I like the s pen software .... so note 4 is best!
Enviado do meu SM-N910F através de Tapatalk
There is no replacement for the Note series except for the New Note.
Huawei is making a great progress in smartphones but The Only best cell phone Samsung has is The Note. if you had a set other than note, then i would have said u should buy Huawei.

Hell no! The GPU is piece of **** - worse than the one on Exynos 5420 chip released in 2013! It's a Mali T628MP4 which absolutely sucks nowadays.
Dear All
Thank for your reading. I am planning to buy Note 5. I am living in Vietnam and our Market sell so much Note 5 Version
SM-N920C (official distribution)
SM-N920I
SM-N9200
SM-N9208
SM-N920P/V/T...
I wanna the version can be root (unlock bootloader) as well as use more Customs Rom on XDA as much as possible ! pls help to give me your valued recommend
I was going to ask the same question (now that Note 7 is dead), so far what I saw from XDA is C and I models more popular, but again seems like most of custom ROMs seem like based on Android 5.0.2.
Another thing that confusing, there's even custom Kernel, however, nowhere I found that it will work for different phone carriers nor different regions
I would say Sammy's International variants are better for ROMs/Modding etc.
So the 920C seems the right choice. That's what I got anyways.
Does the 920C work on the att network in the states?

since Note 7 dead, I am looking into buy one SM-N920C, too bad that version only comes with 32GB, instead of 64GB (att, t-mobile versions)

well, almost impossible to find 64gb version in USA, the ones I found ebay they asking like crazy money...
Has the Note 5 been discontinued?
In South Africa it seems that stock is running low? GSMarena says "Status = available". My Note 4 got stolen and I don't know whether to wait and hope that Samsung will do the sensible thing and produce the Note 5 in a 128gig version or to go out and reluctantly buy the Note 5 64gig.
Bought my Note 4 after the Note 5 was released because a micro sd slot is non-negotionable but now I am stuck.
Love the Note functionality, also have a Note 8 and 12.2.
Anyone with some inside knowledge?

Yeah the 64gb has some demand, esp after the Note 7 thing.
What about getting a high-quality used one from a verified seller/retailer?
I got one from a reputed store in near perfect condition and a fantastic price. It cost me less than what people were listing it for in the local classifieds.

Production has obviously stopped a long time ago for the Note 5.
What you find now are older stock that didn't sell or were ordered late into production.
I doubt a 128gb version will be produced since Sammy will have to restart an older line. It would cost more than continuing the S7 line (as they doing now).
Why note try the S7/Edge. It's a new design with micro-SD expansion.

well, S7 Edge is expensive, that's why...also I am more "note" guy, so since Note 7 now dead, only option I have is last year's Note 5, of course, giving a sec thought and debating if I really need to get Note 5 or move on to others. If I get Note 5, at least get N920C with 64GB (since it does not have micro-SD), so finding N920C with 64GB is quite challenging (the one I found ebay asking like crazy price), and as you said they stopped production of 64GB version way before 32GB, I guess that's explains why there are plenty of 32gb version out there than 64GB.
I have reserved a Note 5 64gb, will pick it up tomorrow or Wednesday. Sad but probably true that Samsung won't release a 128gb version. I am sure, there are many who would still go crazy for a 128gb Note 5!
If you use the Note functionality there is unfortunately nothing that comes close to the Note range! Still using my Note 8 daily even when I had the Note 4.
The impression I got from Samsung today was that they will continue to produce the Note 5 now that the Note 7 has been discontinued.

What I did with the LG G3 (T-Mo 32gb version) was use an OTG USB for backup until MM broke it, then I just did a PC-backup of all data as soon as storage reached 80%. :
It might seem cumbersome, but I only had to do it thrice in 5 months. Not bad imo.
hello ,
Just wanted to check what price our dear users have bought Note 9 for in 2019 .
I purchased in June 10th 2019 for USD449 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 black with 6gb RAM , 128 GB rom.
I think this prices is justified as its similar to Old One Plus 6T in my region .
what about you guys ?
i was previously using Note 5 - single sim , Exynos - 64 GB rom , 4GB ram .
That is a steal!
USD646 - for Exynos version , Dual Sim - Note 9 blue with 8gb RAM , 512gb rom.
There's a midnight black exynos that's a bit above $500 that I'm keeping an eye on. I'm waiting until next week before I may pull the trigger on it. Just to have a fresh Note 9 to extend my Note 9 experience seeing the design direction Samsung are moving towards. Note 9 for me for the next few years, more than likely.
In europe they are still more expensive. Bought my black 128 6gb last week for €549

I'm also enjoying my SD variant with Pie. It's much smoother and better battery life than the exynos model which I had a few months ago.
