Samsung Galaxy Note 4 vs. Motorola Nexus X: Which Phablet is Better?

The Galaxy Note 4 is Samsung's latest phablet to hit the market which and is to replace the aging Galaxy Note 3 while contending with the iPhone 6 Plus, their rival Apple's own phablet offering. Google, however, isn't standing down and is releasing a phablet of their own, the Nexus 6 (also known as the Nexus X) and is scheduled for a release later this month with pre-orders on the way.

To make things different, we'll be comparing Samsung's phablet with Google's own phablet.

First off, the Galaxy Note 4. Being a phablet, it would obviously have a big screen and the Note 4 possesses a 5.7-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen with a QHD screen resolution (2560 x 1440). The Nexus X on the other hand has a bigger 5.96-inch AMOLED touchscreen with the same QHD screen resolution. Of course, the Nexus X with the bigger screen suffers from a slightly smaller pixel density.

In terms of hardware, the Note 4 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 chipset with a quad-core 2.7GHz processor and an Adreano 420 GPU. It only has a 32GB storage variant but has a microSD card support of up to 128GB. It also has 3GB of RAM.

The Nexus X on the other hand also has the same hardware specs as the Note 4 but unlike its competitor, it has 32GB and 64GB storage variants and the same 3GB RAM. However, it does not support microSD cards.

The Note 4 has a much higher 16-megapixel rear facing camera compared to the Nexus X's 13-megapixel snapper. Also, the Note 4 is currently only running Android 4.4.4 Kitkat while the Nexus X will be coming out with Google's newest Android 5.0 Lollipop.
