- 1492ModeratorI still have 3 Samsung Note 4 on different networks. The main reason I resist upgrading is that it has built-in IR, so can control all my wireless devices, including legacy models. Came in handy at work when I forget to bring the remote for our new ceiling mounted Panasonic laser projectors in our conference rooms, as the Medialon touchscreen control was still being installed. Took less than a minute to add Panasonic to my Android remote app, which gave full operation/setup control. I've been told that Samsung dropped IR in smartphones due to complaints of people changing the channels at sport bars/restaurants? Though don't know if this is true?
I also like the fact that you can easily replace the battery, and have added internal wireless charging pads to all my Note 4. Just drop the Note 4 in a wireless charging cradle at home/work.
The Note 4 processor/screen res. are both still fairly comparable to newer models. So personally, not motivated to upgrade mine. - TrackrigExplorer III recently replaced my Note 4 with the Note 10+. I like it. Figure out what you want and hope there's a July 4th sale.
Bill - T18skyguyExplorerI would say stick to the Note also.If your carrier is T Mobile you might get a good deal, or if you switch to them you get a good deal. I have a Note 9 for a year and a half, and their already offering me $500 dollar off on a new phone.
- wildtoadExplorer IIIf you’ve had good results with the Note 4, suggest you buy the newest version of the same phone.
- wanderingaimlesExplorerIf you want another phone with the stylus the other alternatives are
Samsung note 8 9 or 10 or 10+
LG stylo 3 , 4, or 5
Motorola motoG stylus.
And I think Huwaei or another chinese maker has some too.
All available with reviews from amazon or BestBuy As well as reviews on various web sources. - IB853347201Nomad III would go with a Note 10
