"No reason to upgrade to the note 4 when my note 3 is already and still 2 years ahead of the iphone 6.
Samsung, surprise me with the note 5."
I realize you are passionate about your phone and it is a nice device for sure but lets not mix up the fact that you had a larger screen 2 years prior to the iPhone 6 with the idea that somehow that made your phone ahead. You can't even talk about NFC when the adoption is widely considered a failure and took Google Wallet down with it.
I am not even sure Apple Pay will work unless Apple partners with card providers (which they are doing) to adopt their solution.
Finally offering HD resolutions
Finally offering a decent screen size
Finally offering NFC which can be used for more than just payments.
Jobs is dead, and Apple is going to be on the same path if they don't get back to innovating. There is NOTHING about the new Iphone that is new and exciting. Wait until the hipsters find something else.
Samsung offers all kinds of designs and styles. It took Apple almost a decade to do the same instead of just offering a new model and continuing to sell the previous 1 or 2.
