At 5.3 inches, it was a behemoth for its day -- and yet, it sold like hotcakes thanks to its unique S Pen stylus, which provided users with extra functionality, and a copious amount of screen space.<br /> <div> <b><br /></b>Four iterations later, the Note series has continued to grow, mature and dominate the genre. Not only does the latest version, the Galaxy Note 4, come with the snazziest spec sheet on the market, but it also ushers in a fantastic new direction in Samsung's design. It sure sounds like an improvement over last year's model, and it is. Now that Apple's ready to tackle the Note with a large-screen phone of its own, however, is Samsung's baby still the best in its class?</div> </div> </div>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: blue;">AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon can't agree on how much Samsung's Galaxy Note 4 actually costs</span></h2> <b>The iPhone 6 Plus is giving iOS users plenty to clamor about, but over here in Android Land we're still waiting on the official launch of Samsung's next-generation phablet. The Galaxy Note 4 is slated to launch next month, and while you can pre-order it with several carriers, each is offering the phone at a different price.</b><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-1s0k7tgoTj_QzoYWMdNkfAhZ_igwW0EeciHb37NOCZr5h2BPm_5ee1pOAEi2T0xKgai05wFwqk-YqYYwXwIrSnlewBhWA7YuDoKc0h0aIfRC7wCxL04OnPzKh0YIjpjXfEZstrFtTtN9/s1600/Samsung-galaxy-note-4-01-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="alt" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-1s0k7tgoTj_QzoYWMdNkfAhZ_igwW0EeciHb37NOCZr5h2BPm_5ee1pOAEi2T0xKgai05wFwqk-YqYYwXwIrSnlewBhWA7YuDoKc0h0aIfRC7wCxL04OnPzKh0YIjpjXfEZstrFtTtN9/s1600/Samsung-galaxy-note-4-01-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" title="" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Verizon offers the best dea</td></tr> </tbody></table> <div> The impact on you at home: Obviously, if you're already loyal to a specific carrier, you may have buyer's remorse if you see a competitor selling the Galaxy Note 4 for less. It's just another example of how the Android universe is fragmented. It's not like the iPhone 6 Plus is offered at three different prices—all three of these carriers are offering it for $750.</div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp4ErVNEKWcMr7k6hBjCMErMMFlxr9VpoPVtUhB4MBDMFAwWh2Qtr8LwCyOHngCfZQ1UQFW71bBY1ixcTYKSPNd9mDxLhy9Sp25MyalD4i2ka1I5GrZVpFqA86eQ4RuBjnAG4TbBm6hBhJ/s1600/Samsung-galaxy-note-4-03-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="alt" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp4ErVNEKWcMr7k6hBjCMErMMFlxr9VpoPVtUhB4MBDMFAwWh2Qtr8LwCyOHngCfZQ1UQFW71bBY1ixcTYKSPNd9mDxLhy9Sp25MyalD4i2ka1I5GrZVpFqA86eQ4RuBjnAG4TbBm6hBhJ/s1600/Samsung-galaxy-note-4-03-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" title="" /></a></div> <div> <br />T-Mobile users can pre-order the 5.7-inch Galaxy Note 4 today for about $750, or $31 a month for two years.

The phone will cost $825 for those off contract, though there are varying tiers for those on AT&T Next plans. The same device with 32GB of onboard storage can be pre-ordered over at Verizon for $700, or $35 a month with Verizon Edge.<br /></div>
