**The Battle of the Big Phones: A Review**

As we sat down to review these two behemoths of smartphones, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. We're talking about two phones that are truly massive, with some exceeding 6 inches in screen size. The competition was fierce, with both phones vying for the top spot as the best smartphone available. In this review, we'll dive into the details of each phone, exploring their design, performance, and features.

**The Verdict: Samsung Galaxy Note vs Apple iPhone 6 Plus**

As I reached out to pick up the Samsung Galaxy Note, I couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation. The phone was so large that it seemed almost unwieldy in my hand. But as soon as I started using it, I realized that its size wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The Note's rounded corners made it comfortable to hold and grip, even with the fingers wrapped around it tightly. In contrast, the iPhone 6 Plus had straight sides that felt slightly slippery in my hands. This difference was noticeable enough that I found myself dropping the phone multiple times while using it in my pocket.

On the other hand, the Note's rounded corners also made it more ergonomic to hold and use for extended periods of time. The phone simply felt more comfortable in the hand, with a slight advantage over its competitor. However, there was one significant drawback to the Note - its display was slightly less bright and had a lower pixel count than the iPhone 6 Plus's screen. While neither was significantly noticeable in normal use, it did make me wonder if the Note was sacrificing some visual quality for its larger size.

**The Display: A Close Call**

One of the most noticeable differences between these two phones was their displays. The Samsung Galaxy Note's display was a stunning AMOLED screen with vibrant colors and crisp pixelation. It was an absolute joy to look at, and I found myself getting lost in the deep blacks and bright whites. On the other hand, the iPhone 6 Plus had an IPS display that while still excellent, didn't quite live up to the Note's standards.

The Note's display did have one advantage - its viewing angles were slightly better, making it easier to watch videos or browse web pages from different angles. However, the iPhone 6 Plus still offered a fantastic display experience, with deep colors and good brightness levels.

**Performance: A Close Race**

When it came to performance, both phones were incredibly fast and responsive. The Samsung Galaxy Note's hardware was simply on par with the Apple A8 chip in the iPhone 6 Plus, but I couldn't help but feel that the Note had a slight edge. Perhaps it was just the confidence boost from knowing that you're using one of the best Android phones available.

The competition was fierce, however - both phones offered lightning-fast performance and no lag or stuttering during our testing sessions. Whether you were using apps, browsing web pages, or playing games, these phones delivered seamless experiences.

**The Verdict: A Close Comparison**

In the end, it came down to personal preference. If I had to choose one phone, I'd have to go with the Samsung Galaxy Note. There was just something about its size and design that felt right in my hand. The display, while slightly less bright than the iPhone 6 Plus's screen, still offered an incredible viewing experience.

But make no mistake - both phones were incredibly capable and offered a fantastic user experience. Whether you're an Android fan or an Apple loyalist, there was something for everyone in this comparison.

**A Shoutout to Our Crew**

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the help of our crew. John and Marquez were on hand to assist with filming and testing these phones, and I couldn't thank them enough for their hard work. And finally, a huge shoutout to our cameraman, Jäger, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to capture all the footage we needed.

**Conclusion**

As we wrap up this review, it's clear that both the Samsung Galaxy Note and Apple iPhone 6 Plus are incredible phones in their own right. While they may have some differences, both offered an exceptional user experience and were capable of handling even the most demanding tasks. If you're looking for a new smartphone, I highly recommend considering both options - and maybe even taking it for a spin to see which one feels just right in your hand.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with my buddy John where we're going to be comparing the iPhone 6 Plus against the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 last time we checked out the iPhone 6 versus the Galaxy S5 this time we're back for the bigger brothers let's go so now we're on to slow-mo and of course everything looks better in slow motion and now we're going to see which looks better me whatever what' you go for it go for it man boom nice nice nice and and there goes my shin boom Oh that hurt that looks pretty decent what yeah what do you think it looks like that looks pretty good better than I thought 15 FPS though is a little weird playback was weird play weird I'm going to show that to someone I'm going to adjust that yeah but that didn't look that at all that was pretty good six plus time I win I like I can get this I can get this I can get this I can no straight down the bar roll the C I like the play back adjustment tool so you can like go back to regular motion whenever you want right this is nice yes you can like you can watch it at normal speed and then slow it down when you need to colors look very good here and it's super stable and the motion is solid motion is really solid playback is definitely your 30 frames verdict 6 plus if I'm going to give a wi if I'm going to give a winner I'm say six plus is a winner right now next up we have the camera quality test so again I've got the Note 4 John's got the 6 plus we're going to run around here to take the best picture we can however it's not quite that simple so we'll have 2 minutes to find the picture we're most proud of we're going to bring it back to Marquez the judge who will decide the Fate so first step is to find a good thing to take a picture of so actually there's a Skyline right here let's try that yeah there we go you can leave like the image quality on whatever it is cuz I have time to adjust it all right so sabotaging the street look good the street looks good the street looks good get out here get out of here get out of here no no no give the camera back give me the camera the the camera is like completely wet I don't care I don't care uh uh something yeah macro macro good idea macro oh I'm on time lapse somehow I've got more megapixels uh another shot of this got it next got it got it oh this is the shot right here this shot that's the shot right there that with the shot a I don't think I got anything good all right so let me see your shots gentlemen all right so this is mine shot here that's your shot this my shot my shot this is your shot here okay this is okay I'm going to start with awesome shot the the Symmetry is nice I remember you taking that shot and it's pretty good looking so I look at these shots on the Note 4 and Samsung does this with all their cameras and they sharpen everything so it's really hard to separate something from the background when it's sharpening the background too right right um what is in Focus here on on the iPhone shot it's like everything I guess everything yeah honestly I like the iPhone shot better just just looking at it I like but the photography skills were better on the Note 4 the photography skills especially with the Note 4 considering you just ran up and and took that shot is pretty nice looking so um I get like half a point right so I'm going to give I'm going to give the slight Edge just cuz I like the look of the shot that came out of the iPhone it is nice it is nice uh but good job photography yeah good work he's reaching okay so we're now in the city it's raining and we have to find someone to take a selfie with with each phone so not only we going to be testing the front-facing cameras but we're also going to test we can talk to strangers cuz now I will interrupt and say that this is not about who can find the person to take the selfie with the quickest it's overall image quality right we're just adding the twists yeah cuz it's more fun like that and also training I should probably mention that again there you go there fun wait no do you want do you mind taking a selfie we're seeing who can take test out the selfie cam okay give him a peace sign let's go all right yes thank you sir no problem would you mind taking a selfie with me yeah you guys take a selfie you okay 3 2 1 yeah all this is way more fun than I thought it was going to be excuse me sir what you you mind taking a selfie with me it's for science I'm it's not for science nobody wants taking that selfie with me give me give me a smile I don't excuse me would you mind help me out in taking a selfie with me don't do it no don't you want to take a selfie all right ready 3 2 1 got it success oh that's a good one that's my favorite this guy was great it's again it's not yeah it's not the whest angle in the world it's not sharp in the world but it looks pretty good so that's good it's a much wider angle it's not focused though she's semi in focused I don't know if it's not focused or like I maybe I move the camera little bit a little bit of blur oh look at this this is a complete cheating but pretty good now because it's MKBHD it's very sharp photo oh yeah um 4K 4K automatically again a very it's a much wider angle yeah it is a wide angle you get all four shoulders in a shot where I look at John's again you only get the inside shoulders that's the easiest way to tell and you can see how we're pretty out of focus there or not out of focus but like the shutter was off think beauty face is that beauty face looks very soft oh that's it so if we take one right now yeah what happens when it recognizes a face see how it smooth oh that's bad I like it's not but you can turn it off you can turn it off up or down or off so A+ for features B for Quality A+ for Quality C+ for features so no four wins no four wins you wantes there but no four wins starting to rain even more it's raining so much let's go inside so we' brought it inside since it's raining way too much out there for our next test which is going to be the one-handed speed test aka the MKBHD test in honor of our one-handed friend so what we're going to do is unlock it one-handed take a picture tweet it out and see you can do it the fastest 3 2 one go I may have cheated oh you cheated well come on come on there we go I got it I got it okay camera oh wait selfie oh it's already in selfie mode what oh he won okay got it okay Twitter where's Twitter Twitter this is really hard with one hand okay wait oh I can attach a picture no no no no wait wait I want to attach that there uh Happy this is so hard with one hand birthday Lama oh spell it a m r r we doing the at uh no no yes yo no yes okay okay fine fine fine fine I can't reach canot okay we're doing we're doing it we're doing oh the L's all the way over here it's so far away l a m a i will no done no no I almost there done done wait no no no got it I got it I got it okay it's done it's done okay I won that yeah hang on how many seconds did you beat me by me like 4 seconds 4 seconds proof is in the timeline to be fair that actually finger work like on like the third time yeah I was surprised you I was kind of casual like yeah you like just taking your time like I got this yeah I was actually able to get it pretty quickly and uh okay but you win all right so we definitely had fun however we could be a little bit more serious about this what do you guys think all right so size is one thing to feel in the hand they're both huge phones in the first place what do you guys think about that after using this and going back to the the note the note felt smaller and more comfortable yeah it's surprising I've never thought I would pick up a note feel like it's small I also like the build of this a little bit more I mean obviously having all metal is nice but with the champers and it just it's something to grip on whereas this is slippery it's I don't know I actually am surprised to say that I actually think that the note for is actually feels better than the hand no it does completely a big a big thing about it is the rounded Corners versus the straight sides of not huge difference in the way it feels in the hand yeah I've I've dropped this personally many times if you're using it in your pocket at the gym it's slid out without me knowing so just that without a doubt is more comfortable it's easier to grip uh it's more ergonomic yeah what about the screens it's hard to argue with those pixels uh I mean I would 40p is nice I wouldn't be unhappy with this it's a beautiful display like on paper it's not as high resolution as that so I mean that's a better display but either way you go yeah if you look at the Technologies AMOLED versus IPS you have to pick which one you like more you're going to get a high resolution on the Note but you also get different versions of brightness different viewing angles different color saturation levels I do feel like this is a slightly oversaturated screen like pretty much all amet screens are to be totally honest I think it's almost a tie both screens are crazy good sure there are a few more pixels here but I couldn't notice them in normal use I think both screens are just almost off the chart it's the crazy yeah as far as performance goes again that's kind of a hard thing I mean I I mean obviously this is you know insanely highend but so is the A8 I mean there's some serious I mean you might look like dual core and oh it's not all that bad but that iPhone 6 Plus is a very very fast phone yeah I think at this point both are killer Hardware like internally but they're kind of held back by the software right yeah iOS is not taking full advantage of this or the size and and touch best touch with touch with yeah I think this is the best phone Samsung has ever made and I'll talk more about that in my own video I think this is the best phone Apple's ever made and I talked about that already in a video so if you're an apple Camp obviously you've made your choice already if you're an Android Camp you've made your choice already too but they're very comparable in a lot of ways so that's a good thing surprisingly close comparison anyway guys I give you a big shout out to John as well as Marquez for being in the video and helping kind of wrap this one up as well as a huge shout out to jeder behind the camera for holding it down and actually making sure that we actually made a video so definitely be sure to go check all of them out I will have links in the description and anyway guys catch you next time all right okay we got what was that out there like a cathey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with my buddy John where we're going to be comparing the iPhone 6 Plus against the Samsung
