Display: Galaxy S5 5.2-inches - Galaxy Note iv 5.7-inches

One may live a telephone in addition to the other a phablet, simply both devices bring huge screens. The S5 has increased 0.2-inches compared to the S4, simply the Note iv has retained the same 5.7-inch display every bit the Note 3. But spell the S5 got larger, it maintains the same 1920 x 1080 ‘Full HD’ display every bit the S4 spell Note iv ups its game to an incredible 2560 x 1440 pixels (also known every bit ‘QHD’ aka 2k).

Many volition rightly interrogation whether the S5 in addition to Note 4’s ‘pixels per inch’ densities of 432 in addition to 550 ppi respectively matter. After all AppleAAPL +0.59% defines a ‘Retina display’ (where the human pump tin give the axe no longer brand out the private pixels) every bit 326ppi, simply this is disputed in addition to many swear they tin give the axe encounter the departure – notably Forbes’ contributor Ian Morris inwards his review of the 2560 x 1440 5.5-inch LG G3.

As for the screens themselves, sadly Samsung has non matched the much anticipated iPhone half dozen sapphire display with either device and both use Corning GLW +1.19% Gorilla Glass three instead. Don’t live besides lay off, Gorilla Glass three is currently the toughest textile on whatever handset. Samsung also fits the S5 in addition to Note iv amongst Super AMOLED panels which are far brighter than criterion IPS displays, though they tin give the axe also oversaturate colours in addition to then it is best to endeavor them inwards soul to encounter if you’re a fan.

Materials: Milky Way Note 4: plastic or metallic chassis – Milky Way S5: plastic

Samsung has (in my opinion, rightly) come upwardly inwards for a lot of criticism inwards its telephone structure in addition to neither the Note iv or S5 volition exercise a lot to alter that.

In my Galaxy S5 review I constitute its faux-leather plastic dorsum inwards item experience inexpensive in addition to the Note iv carries on this unwelcome pattern trait, though it adds metallic edges in addition to a metallic frame which is a sizeable stride inwards the correct direction. Furthermore Note iv owners volition encounter a premium version of the phablet released which has a metallic back, but nosotros human face pricing.

Of course of pedagogy the skilful tidings amongst Samsung phones is these somewhat unappealing backs tin give the axe live swapped in addition to they also render access to the battery, sim bill of fare in addition to retention bill of fare slots. For some who similar to behavior spare batteries around this is a bargain maker.

[EDIT] Where the S5 scores highly, however, is its dust in addition to H2O resistance. This doesn’t hateful y'all tin give the axe become swimming amongst it, simply it volition live beingness dropped inwards a sink of H2O or fifty-fifty beingness used inwards the shower if y'all take away to answer an urgent call. Sadly the Note iv is neither.
