Traded my S5 for a Note 4 yesterday!

I've had my Samsung Galaxy S5 since May 2014 and was bored with it & wanted a bigger screen, so I placed it on craigslist to trade for a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 or Nokia Lumia 1520. After all, the S5 was the best smartphone in early 2014 and I was thinking someone wanted a smaller smartphone as many felt the Note 4 was too big after getting one. Sure enough, with a few hours I had an offer for both, the Nokia and Note 4. Both person said the same thing, their phone was too big for them and wanted a smaller phone. I had six housing cases for my S5 & it was still mint. I chose the White Note 4 over the Lumia 1520. Glad I did, this Note 4 is a fantastic smartphone, in MINT shape... I'm loving it.
I'm a photographer by trade and it works perfect for showing potential customers my work when I don't have my notebook with me, which is often.

Congratulations! The Note 4 is a great phone. I love the S-Pen for jotting quick notes, shopping lists, writing on screen captures, and basic note taking in S-Notes. Great phone and I'm spoiled by the S-Pen! Enjoy your new phone!
 
Have to agree with you on the smart pen, if like me you have fat arthritic fingers it's a god send. Without it I always hit multiple keys, and it takes for ever to type a message. Phil
 
I hate mobile websites and switch to desktop view wherever possible, after all I have better resolution on my phone than on a desktop machine. I use the S-Pen to trigger javascript mouseover events by hovering the pen over the element that you would normally trigger with the mouse. Makes some websites much more usable and some only really work with the pen.

Regards,
Eric.
 
Haven't done that up to now, ERIC, but the suggestion sounds fabulous and I will try the desktop view.

Strange??? You must have a poor desktop as mine is much better than a phone any day.
