Samsung can boast that it has two of the best Android smartphones on the market to date: the Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy S5. Though both devices present many similarities, there are key differences, which are apparent when comparing the technical specifications. Today, we took a brief look at either device to see how they match up.
Design
Obviously the Note 4 is larger, and heavier than the Galaxy S5, so no need to delve deeper into comparing dimensions. What counts here are the choices made in terms of design: Samsung opted for a perforated soft plastic backing on the Galaxy S5, while the Galaxy Note 4 is like the Note 3 in that they’ve incorporated fake leather. This time though they omitted the fake seams. The Note 4 has an actual aluminium frame, while the Galaxy S5 has a fake chrome frame that resembles the rims on a souped up car. Also, the Note 4 doesn’t have USB 3.0 like the Galaxy S5, which some are a little irked about. Obviously, the Note 4 has the built-in S Pen, and also holds the heart rate monitor and finger scanner, like the Galaxy S5. So both have their advantages, and disadvantages, but the Note 4 is a bit of step up!
Software
Keep in mind that, even though these are two devices manufactured by the same brand, they were built with quite different objectives in mind: both offer excellent performance according, from what was discovered in both the hands on Galaxy Note 4 review and the hands on Galaxy S5 review. When taking a look at software, the Note 4 has more productivity features which work hand-in-hand with the S Pen. That being said, on the performance level, they are both top notch.
