You see the edge version ? Looks to be the future with a 2nd slim screen down the side....
Still got the note 2 and it still performs pretty well...
I don't see the future, looks totally like a gimmick. Also looks awful.Still got the note 2 and it still performs pretty well...
Just cannot see the point of it whatsoever.
Having a small portion of the screen live rather than zapping the power using the whole thing. Allow permanent menus off the main screen and retaining info like time and battery levels.
Leaving it on my desk with it live with notifications without the whole thing lighting up. Current side bar menu always in the way as you switch to touchscreen and keyboards.
I like the look of it too....

You fully looked at it ?
Yes, I think it's not particularly well though out. Take a look at these videos and see for yourself.

For a start, it seems that if you leave it on your desk and just have the sidebar notifications then they will all be upside down. Hopefully there would be a setting to change this otherwise it's a huge fail.
Then, simulate with your own phone. Pulling it out of your pocket after it vibrates and then trying to look at the sidebar for the notifications. It's totally unnatural for the wrist movement.
And really, my Note 4 has zero visibility problems when I am at my desk. I don't know what sort of desk you sit at, but I virtually have to put my eyes almost level to the desk before I stop being able to read my screen. It would achieve the same end result on a normal screen just having a bar area activating every time you get a notification. (Smilar to how the screen works with a Smart Cover) The curve is pointless.
As mentioned before, if you're interested in the stylus, there's really nothing that comes close to the Note.
The stylus & it's working is a thing of beauty. Personally, I don't know whether I'd find a lot of use for it though.
But, I wouldn't know as I've yet to have a Galaxy Note as a daily driver!

Had my Note 4 (non-Edge) for about a week now.
Love it!
Super fast and smooth and it runs multiple stuff without even breaking sweat - screen is the Mutt's and coming to a 4G handset from my previous Galaxy S3, it's a lot faster.
Need to spend more time with the pen but I was making notes in a meeting earlier and it's fab!
