    Default Note 4 user review and Three InTouch App

    Just contemplating changing my Sony Z1 for a Note 4. Has anyone out there got 1 and if so, what are your initial thoughts etc? I'm going to swap from Vodafone to 3 as I find the coverage and mobile data really poor in the city. Unfortunately where I work has metal lined walls and there is zero coverage for 3 however they tell me there is an app called "Three In Touch" which allows SMS and calls through standard Wi-Fi. Does anyone have any comments on this also?

    Sorry it's 2 questions in one post but any info would be great.

    Thanks
    Jon

    Do it,best phone i've ever owned,it was a natural upgarde for me as I had a Note 3 before this,screen will blow you away as will the camera and battery life,all in all a fantastic phone which is'nt as big as people think,sorry about not giving any more detail's but I do urge you to have a play with one and make your mind up!

    Thanks to sanj

    I'm in a similar place for work with no coverage - the three in touch app works fine but the thing I hate about it is it stores sms messages within the app rather than normal messages so there's no way to back them up

    Had mine for about 2 week's now.
    i was always an apple boy but after bying a smart LG tv and saw that you could stream showbox and the like I thought it's time to leave the restrictive apple ..

    So far I love the big screen as my eyes are not as good as they once were.
    Never going to use the pen so can not coment on that.
    The camera is great with lots of modes .
    so far I think it's a great phone

    Thanks to darkstar

    Interesting as the Three shop in my city said the SMSs will appear in both App's (Three InTouch and your normal SMS app) I suspect they were telling me a porky, still as long as it works ok thats good enough for me... Thanks!!

    It's the one thing I really hate about the app - I use sms backup&restore app which auto backs up my texts etc every few days - none of the texts received through the 3 in touch app even appear in the normal messages they can only be viewed in the app - so unless there's a hidden setting I'm missing then the shop are telling you porkies

    I guess as long as it works ok for most it will be fine. Thanks

    i still have about 10 months before a free upgrade (we'll see how free it is, haha) and will go from my Galaxy S3 to a Note 4 (unless the next Galaxy S is amazing). The wife has the Note 3, and it's awesome, fully recommend it. The Note 4 resolution/camera/chargetime/processor are some of the big upgrades i hear and worth it. But I heard the battery life isn't as good as the Note 3.
