Excellent smartphone at its time but I don't understand why Samsung got rid of the EXIF viewer in the gallery app.
The S5 and Note 3 gallery apps showed stuff like exposure time, ISO, aperture, and even a histogram!

I will buy one of these used soon to record videos, my current thing is a Galaxy A05 and the videos it records aren't great.

There's a variation of the Note 4 which has 16 GB of storage, but it supports dual SIM. I'll be getting that one soon!

This Phone is extremely unreliable. As someone who refurbishes broken phones as a hobby, The note 4 is one of the most reliable Samsung phones i have ever repaired. Out of 10 Note 4’s, 8 have infamous eMMC Issues. If you are still using this dinosaur, general symptoms include:
Constant app crashes {ie. Google Maps is not responding}
Random Slowdowns in the basic Android UI with no tasks
Freezing, Especially When Pressing on the Top of the Phone
This will progressively get worse and eventually result into the device no longer booting, rather it doesn’t turn on or it shows “eMMC Write Fail” and will boot no further.
The Camera Is Kinda Cool for 2014 though

The storage is the problem for this phone, like it has only 32GB then the software should’ve been on Android 7.0

Also, the Note 4 is the first known smartphone to break 40000 points in AnTuTu benchmark.
Impressive performance for 2014.

PROTIP: Set exposure value +1 to boost the photo and video quality.
The Note 4 unfortunately has a tendency to underexpose photos and videos.
Tapping while recording video thankfully only changes focus, not exposure. On the newer smartphones, the video becoming dark or bright when tapping is highly annoying.
The Note 4 was the ideal camcorder phone at its time. Optically stabilized 4K 2160p and stereo audio, Micro SD support for instant storage expansion. That was a dream in 2014.
I dare to say, the Note 4 was the first smartphone in existence that could replace a camcorder (except if optical zoom is necessary).
