Hello and welcome to the forums. You ask and the answer is the Note 4 . Not cause apple isn't stable but I can say some key features may not work. The note 4 lagging can be fixed without ROOTING .

Just look for your self

Also the note 4 has the fast charge option does a little more than the 6 . The note 4 can be paired with some of the Samsung new line of devices .

Thanks for the reply. If I was to encounter any lagging how would that be fixed?

I can tell you but how can you fix without the device. But some lag I noticed with some of the multi tasking some . But it had to do with data cause on WiFi network works very good

My question is relatively simple. I'm torn between getting the galaxy note 4 or the iPhone 6. If someone who has used both the iPhone 6 and note 4 can tell me (without going into a rage match between apple and samsung) which they prefer. I love the features of the note 4 but I'm also a little scared of what I've heard about lag on samsung devices. That is honestly the one thing I hate on phones and perhaps why iPhones are my go to phones even though i realize they don't do all that much that could cause a lag.

I appreciate any feedback.


Thanks

Hi! I have been using iPhones since they came out, and I also use a Mac and iPad. Several months ago I got a Galaxy s5, and recently upgraded to a Note 4.
I love my Note 4! I haven't had any problems with it. (Of course, I also love my 6 Plus!)
If I could sync my Android data with my other Apple devices, the Note could well be my go-to phone.

Even if the Note 4 has a slight lag, it still does 100 times what the iphone can do! Honestly, my last iphone had lag to it as well...

The "lag" issues are dramatically overblown on the Note 4. I've seen a lot of back and forth arguments about lag on previous Galaxy devices, but this particular little pissing contest is pretty overblown.

There are some places here and there where the phone might display some lag. Factors that seem to matter are the carrier (more Verizon users seem to notice it) and the process you're using (everyone seems convinced the recent apps button is a big one).

In my personal experience with the phone, there is virtually no lag at all. I have no lag in any of the areas commonly complained about (most especially the recent apps button) but I do notice it in some TW/Samsung apps from time to time. Its really not a big deal and doesn't affect the overall performance and function of this outstanding phone. In fact, there are complaints about lag on the i6 series once you get into the multi-tasking aspects of the iPhone. As much as Apple would like to claim otherwise, the iOS platform was never designed with multi-tasking in mind.

If you are a diehard iOS fan, the I6+ is going to treat you well. I'm not bashing iOS, I'm simply acknowledging that iOS 8 is a gradual step up over iOS 7, mostly cosmetic, with a few minor upgrades here and there. But if you like that ecosystem, it works for you and you have no complaints about it--go for it and don't think twice about it.

But if you like the idea of customizing your phone more, having a phone that has much greater multi-tasking capability, a much better display, removable battery, external storage, etc. then the Note 4 absolutely will not disappoint you.

My wife is a diehard iOS fan and wants nothing to do with Android phones. If her company ever decides to upgrade from the i4s series they've been flogging like mules, she wants an i6. My Note 4 is the first Android device I brought home that she said "I would almost be willing to use something like that" because of the S-Pen. She didn't particularly like the size, but everything else I showed her she really liked.

Both ecosystems have their place, and both do a good job for the segment of the market they serve. You just have to decide which market you are happier with.

Lag is not an issue I would concern myself with for making the decision, however. While there are certainly some issues with it, they aren't disruptive to the operation of the phone, and they are certainly no worse than anything being reported on the iOS platform, either.

I'm noticing zero lag on my phone and I'm not rooted. I did shut down a lot of the bloat apps. My advice is that if the camera is the most important part of the phone to you, but the iPhone. If not, buy the Note 4. Other than the camera, I believe the Note 4 is superior.

YMMV. I have not seen any side by side comparisons that show me the iOS camera is better.

I think the i6 camera is easier to use out of the box, but I think the picture quality and flexibility of the Note 4 is ultimately much better.

But hey, apparently it is close enough to be subjective.
