Samsung Galaxy Note 4 vs Samsung Galaxy S5

N4 has a 3220 mAh battery that according to Phonearena will last for more than 8½ hours of typical use. The battery can be charge from 0% to 50% in about 30 minutes and from 0% to 100% in less than 100 minutes.

Note 4 has a 16 MP with optical image stabilization as well as software image stabilization. It can record great 4K30, 1080p60 and 720p120 video.

Located at the bottom edge is a stylus called the S-Pen. It's reasonably accurate and has a button for highlighting making it easy to copy and paste text or look up words in a dictionary.

Note 4 has two chip and cpu combinations available.

1. 2.7 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 805 with Adreno 420 GPU
2. ARMv8-A Exynos 7 Octa with a quad-core 1.3 GHz and quad-core 1.9 GHz CPUs

Both variants have 3GB or RAM and are capable of handling anything thrown at them.

Note 4 runs TouchWiz Nature UX 3.0, an Android reskin, that has a multitasking interface for using two apps at the same time in split screen mode or by having another application in a floating window above anything currently on screen. Touchwiz also adds support for S-Pen functions and includes additional gestures, menus and apps that take better advantage of the big display.

N4 has a 5.7" 2560×1440 (515 ppi) AMOLED display. It's sharp, with good contrast, saturated colors and viewing angles.

The camera has good low-light performance, quick auto-focus (takes about 0.3 seconds), real-time HDR capabilities and can record 4K video.

The S5 has a bright 5.1" 1920x1080 AMOLED screen with excellent contrast, color accuracy and the ability to toggle between wide color gamut and accurate color.

S5 is IP67 certified, which allows the phone to be submerged in water for ~30 minutes without damage. It's also resistant to dust.

OPO has a 2800 mAh battery that according to Phonearena would drain in under 8 hours of typical use.

The Galaxy S5 uses a Snapdragon 801 2.5 GHz CPU with 2GB of RAM and a 578MHz Adreno 330 GPU. The phone is capable of handling most software without a hitch.

Samsung also optimized software response times to touch improving the overall speed of the device. Although Samsung's sometimes extraneous software can lead to slowdowns.
