I liked how the Original Note was equal to the Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Nexus in terms of pricing. It was roughly $600-650, given availability.

The Note 2 didn't improve much over its predecessor, and remained close in price.

The Note 3 was a drastic improvement over the Note 2. However, its price was increased to roughly $700 or $750 if you were unlucky.

Now Samsung is pricing the Note 4 even higher!!
Its offering the latest flagship for a whopping $800!

And what I think about that?
Well, you do get more phone for less price compared to an iPhone. But the iPhone is at least a great designed product, and has a much better SDK which yields better quality Apps. Has as good quality parts, much better customer support, feels and looks more premium and has much better support (hardware and software) by third-party vendors.

But getting something like a Brand New 32GB Black N9005 is more bang for your buck than a shiny Note 4.
And even better is to get something like the OnePlus One, 64GB for $350.

So if you were to argue that Android/Note 4's advantages over the iPhone are valid to put it on-par in terms of value-for-money... then I could tell you, you could purchase three OnePlus One (64GB) models for the price of a single Note 4 or iPhone.

And its a device which is as good as the alternatives... well, almost.
