After releasing its flagship phablet in its home country and China, Samsung is getting ready to launch the Galaxy Note 4 in many additional markets in October, including the U.S., Europe, Asia and Australia. However, the next Note model will only be available in various other countries starting October 10,th which gives Samsung plenty of time to further build buzz around the phone and convince buyers to stay away from the iPhone 6 for a few more days. After posting a Galaxy Note 4 unboxing video, a hilarious TV ad, and a bend test on YouTube, the company listed a short two-minute video that talks about the phone’s “powerful performance.”

FROM EARLIER: Finally: Samsung releases new Galaxy Note 4 launch information for every market

In the video, Samsung focuses on four features, including the 5.7-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display, the 16-megapixel “rear camera with smart OIS,” the front camera with its selfie-friendly picture taking modes, and the phone’s fast-charging battery technology.

Unlike in previous years when the Note phones didn’t have any rivals of phablet proportions in Apple stores, the Galaxy Note 4 will have to face the iPhone 6 Plus this year, so it’s not surprising to see Samsung insist on some of the top hardware features of the new Note. After all, Samsung mocked the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus in recent ads, insisting the Galaxy Note 4 can offer better specs.

Even so, the iPhone 6 models are selling like hot cakes, and recent reports have revealed that Samsung is so worried about iPhone 6 sales that it pushed forward launch plans for the handset. The same reports revealed that Samsung plans to sell up to 15 million Galaxy Note 4 phablets in its first month, a bold target for the company.
