Smartphone giant Samsung kicked off the sale of its latest premium smartphone Galaxy Note 4 for 699 euro, which is about Rs 56,000 in Germany.

With this, Note 4 becomes the most expensive smartphone to come out of Samsung’s stable.

The phone is expected to hit global markets by October. However, the launch is likely to take place in phases.

Samsung is now endeavoring to make its Note series a higher premium phone with stylus from renowned pen maker company Mont Blanc.

The low end digital pen model for Note 4 is priced at around Rs 9,600 (120 euro) and the high end Mont Blanc stylus model is priced at about Rs 32,800 (410 euro). The Galaxy Note 4 has 5.7 inch display similar to that is present in Note 3 launched in October last year. The screen display has moved to advanced version Quad HD from Full High Definition.

This will give better viewing experience in terms of contrast, density of colours etc, the company says. In the new Note 4, Samsung has incorporated multi-function feature on same screen which will allow users to use function like chatting on same screen along with reading as it happens on computer.
