Anyone have any screen protector recommendations? Seems like 99.9% have issues with the halo effect. Would prefer tempered glass..

What's the halo effect? I just got one at crystal mall and it's been fine for $12.

I had the lag issue from before the update, but it's a bit less noticable now. The phone does heat up like mad, though.

The water glitchiness is probably because the phone is registering the water as fingers. Its happened to every capacitative touch screen phone I've had. That's why a lot of people say touch screen phones are not really practical for underwater (to a degree) use--because the touch screen loses most of its functionality whilst underwater... Unless you meant another sort of glitching.

Any long term Note 4 users here? I'm looking to get one to replace my OPO, and it seems like the best option. Any huge worries that haven't been resolved with updates?

my phone started lagging whenever I type and now it restarts randomly starting yesterday.

anyone have the same problem? tried to do a factory reset and backup but still the same problem. gonna try using it in safe mode to see if it fixes the problem. maybe its an app and I should reset again and not load from a backup.

apparently my friend is having the same problem with his S6

My Note 4 screen is burning in, whites are turning yellow, but not where the status bar is since normally black.

Really annoying when I look as stuff in landscap and see the side strip with slightly different colors.

just went to an iphone 6S plus to replace my NOte 4....and wow, I don't know if android has spoiled me but I Hate iOS now.... ended up returning the iPhone and keeping my note 4.

Marshmallow/Android 6.0 coming in March/April....will be worth the wait I'm thinking.

my samsung nexus from 2011 started developing that in the last year
sorry to see the tech didn't mature over 3 years
non-issue for people that dont keep their phones for long...but it's definitely a drawback for SAMOLED screens
