This is the best phone for me bar none. Great battery life, tons of features and super easy to use. The only negative about this phone is that it can easily get scratched on the screen.
Unfortunately I was all excited to of purchased my Note 4, until afterwards and it'd get so HOT, ya literally can't hold it to use it.
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was looking to upgrade my Note 3, and I wanted to go with the Note 4 because it was one of the few phones that I would still be able to expand the memory and change the battery if I wanted to. It has a great camera and nice features. Plus, I've always been a Samsung guy!
It has a stylus that I use really often to screen cap and write with. Way more than I ever would have expected to do. I use it almost on a daily basis.
I have not had any trouble using any app at all so far with this phone, it seems to run them all great no lagging or fps drop whatsoever. I have played Final Fantasy tactics, Fallout Shelter to it's limit, Pariscope, twitter, facebook, instagram, snapchat, tumblr, and pretty much every other social media app under the sun.
Could use a bit more built in memory but in all honesty doesn't matter at all anymore with how cheap micro-SD cards are since you are able to expand the memory.
The phone is pretty durable over all I dropped it dozens of times with out a case but then I was walking to my car and ended up having to hold it in an awkward position and shattered the screen. Still worked although shattered.
It is very light and without a case fit into any pocket I had. However with any case at all it actually was to big to fit into virtually any pocket at all.
The night picture quality at times is a bit shaky sometimes it turns out great others it's very poor and grainy. Daytime pics and good lighting pics always turn out very well and have plenty of resolution. The only thing I do not like is how the rear facing camera sticks out from the back of the phone making the glass on it far too susceptible to accidents.
After a while the GPS started failing and was getting really spotty on my one. However with the new replacement I have it works very well so far with very little hiccups.
This is the first phone I never saw a need to actually load a custom rom to and that really says a lot. Though I don't think it wouldn't be a bad idea to clear out some of the bloat and what not. I just never saw a need to do it.
Overall I would very much so recommend this phone if you multi task and do a lot of social media stuff, it takes decent pictures and can keep up with any other phone on the market still.
