Galaxy S 4 vs Galaxy Note II | Pocketnow

  • The Galaxy S 4 might be the talk of the town today, but it didn't get to its lofty position just by borrowing from older Samsung smartphones. The world's largest handset vendor borrowed heavily from its pioneering phablet line as well when crafting the Galaxy S 4, stealing gesture-based interactions from the Galaxy Note II, and even tweaking a few S Pen-powered features to serve the new pen-less king of the Samsung smartphone pile.
    How did all this feature-porting work out? Should someone in the market for a Note II pause for a second to consider going Galaxy S 4 instead? How much difference does a 1080p display really make? Are your pockets really as big (or as small) as you think? What makes a phablet a phablet, anyway?
    The answers to these questions and more await you in the video below. Slide your chair in and inhale some Samsung-flavored information, then dive into the comments to weigh in on what you think is the best device for you, and why.

    I have a note 2 unlocked for all carriers it's a beats of a phone and it's true once you go big 5.5 inch screen the s4 just feels to small to use watch videos. .my choice the note2 ..

    I have Note 2. Just wondering about getting an S4 or replacing my 9800 with a Q10. I find the BB and Note compliment each other really well. Small phone tasks I use the BB, larger things like videos or print articles I use the Note. Would an S4 compliment my Note as well? Appreciate your thoughts. Thankyou.

  • @jayveealltheway
    @jayveealltheway 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The guy said that there's a bug on the S4 like when we hover our hand on the messages in the inbox, some only shows the preview of the text and some doesn't. Why? Because some doesn't need to show the preview bec. the message is short and the whole message can be seen already on the interface

    @v95890 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I want to know which 1080p camera phone has the phone that will take in a jack input for mic. It's the difference between polished video and an amateur. Iphone you can use the mic input with an adapter through the head phone jack and it can also reach internal sound card through charging unit at the bottom. You wanna talk video-mic input is a must. Thank You!

  • @DapsNdPoundz
    @DapsNdPoundz 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's not a bug that some messages don't hover on the S4. Messages with only one line don't hover. It's long messages that you can't see in the quick preview (as in, the whole message) that you can hover above.

  • @osckarh
    @osckarh 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    lol it don't show previews on minute 4:00 because all there is, it is showing already unless the ones that have more than one line for display, it will display them. hope you notice this, youre welcome.

  • @AdmiralFloof
    @AdmiralFloof 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video. Basically most Note II owners doesn't have to be threatened by S4, and since most of S4's features will go to Note II, that makes upgrading from Note II to S4 seems like downgrading instead

  • @Sapphirehoneydrops
    @Sapphirehoneydrops 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    that kept me from switching as well...but then i found out that s4 enables REAL group chat, that was the deciding factor for me. it took a while to adjust to a smaller screen but it was do-able, the one one thing i do miss a lot though is the s pen...
