Noteworthy Features:

2,048 touch pressure points, writing is more natural, allowing users to
easily handwrite e-mails and texts, capture and edit meeting notes as
well as add handwritten messages to their photos. Improvements to the S
Pen(TM) mean it works with comfort and precision that is now akin to a
computer mouse, making it easier to select and move information, resize
windows, and drag and drop between different apps.
-- Add clarity to your content: Samsung continues to refine the S Pen(TM)
experience with a more user-friendly Air Command functionality along
with other intuitive features such as Action Memo, Screen Write, Image
Clip and Smart Select allowing you to create and collect content.
-- Add your own style: The GALAXY Note 4 offers multiple, seamless
note-taking methods integrated with the S Note application. In addition
to typing and writing, the innovative Snap Note feature allows you to
take a picture of notes on a paper or a whiteboard, and then quickly and
easily convert to an S Note.
Powerful Performance. Powerful Productivity:


-- Do More than One Thing at Once: Due to its large screen, the refined
Multi Window feature helps Canadians multi-task more efficiently by
letting users choose how they access their applications with full, split
or pop-up screens.
-- Bigger Selfies for Bigger Moments: The GALAXY Note 4 is equipped with a
16 megapixel rear-facing camera featuring a Smart Optical Image
Stabilizer that counter-balances camera shake and automatically extends
exposure time in dark settings. In addition, a 3.7 megapixel
front-facing camera with f1.9 offers a default 90 degree shooting angle
and up to 120 degree wide angle so users can get more friends and fun in
frame.
-- Power-Up Fast and Stay Powered: Never miss that important call or text
again. With the GALAXY Note 4's Fast Charging ability, you can recharge
quicker than ever. In addition, the Ultra Power Saving Mode¹ helps to
maximize battery life, even at 10% charge, you can still receive calls
and texts for up to 24 hours.
-- Keep the conversation going: Multiple microphones and an improved
speaker phone for better noise cancellation when speaking in loud
environments will help Canadians keep in touch. A built-in voice
recorder offers eight different directional voice tags and a selective
playback capability that allows users to isolate and listen to specific
voices in a group conversation.
