I saw a guy with one of those the other day when I was playing cards. It looked bigger than I even thought when I played with it in the store. At some point, it's just too big to be a phone. And I think that is it. But he said he used it for phone, and hooked up keyboard to be his work computer as well, so I guess that makes sense.

This is kind of hilarious. Well done, Lenovo.

My sister has the Mega. She hates it.

Well, tomorrow is the day that Samsung shows the world it's new baby, the Note 4.

I can't really decide which is more useless, that edge design or a curved tv.

It looks pretty cool. But, yeah, I don't know how useful it would actually be. Maybe it would give you a little more screen space though to navigate?

I was all ready to get the Galaxy Gear watch a year or so ago when it came out, then I thought about it, and then decided it was one of the stupidest things ever to spend $250 on.

And until they make the virtual reality sexual relations, like in Demolition Man movie, I'm not buying that, either.

Pretty underwhelmed with the new notes. Screen is probably beautiful but not enough changes from the 3

What changes or additions would you suggest?

Keep the screen size same or slightly larger but cut down on bezel. It looks like they actually made the bezel a little longer and wider but the screen is the same. It weighs a little more than the Note 3. No water/dust resistant technology like the S5 which seems odd and disappointing since an older phone already has it. Even though the processor and screen is more powerful they kept the size of the battery basically the same so that'll probably mean less battery time, we'll see.

Don't get me wrong it's probably going to be the best phone on the market for a while but for $700 or whatever I wish it had some of those other things.

Well after a few years of holding off on getting a new phone, I am likely finally going to be moving to the Note4. It will ultimately be once I get a chance to tinker with it hands on.

I've been less than impressed with the updated Samsung phones over the past few years, but this seems like a decent enough step up in hardware, not that it's an epic step up from the 3, but I'd say it's got some gusto in the improvement overall.

I'd do it if you're using anything pre-note 3 for sure

I gots the Note 2, so hopefully it will seem much much faster, and battery life will be improved.
