It's a fact that for the past several years, Samsung has been producing its flagship phones in multiple variants – one powered by its own Exynos SoC and another featuring a chip from a different supplier, usually Qualcomm. This is also the case with the company's top phablet, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, which comes with either a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 or an octa-core Exynos 7 system-on-chip, depending on the market. Carriers in the U.S., for example, are offering the Snapdragon variant, while the Exynos model is marketed in parts of Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
Currently being rolled out to units in Europe, the update weighs in at around 350MB, and bumps the firmware version to XXS1DPJ3.
VRFocus delivers another entry in its weekly 'VR vs.' series, this time looking at the Gear VR for the Galaxy Note 4 and discussing its longevity.
"Samsung’s Galaxy Note 4 is a champion at battery life, alongside last year’s Sony Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact. The Galaxy Note 4 battery life averages about two days, which while..."
I think the update on the Note 4 and 5 for the Marshmallow will greatly improve thebattery life
No mention that the Note 4 still has removable batter and microsd card slot while the Note 5 does not? That is the bigger deal IMO...
Yep that's why I got a note 4 instead. It won't be long until devs port the good apps that come with the note5 anyway.
Exynos 7 Octa is no match for Snapdragon.
