Did I make the wrong choice with the Note 4

I've just ordered myself the Note 4. I was torn between the Note 4, and waiting a bit for the S6.
However, it just seemed like the specs were improved on the S6...but for usability, it seems you would generally get much more out of the phone in terms of usage with the Note 4, because it just does so much more.
What are you opinions? Did I make the wrong choice?

You can usually send the phone back if unopened for what its worth.
But i only have 10 days to return it if i dont like it, in which time the S6 wont b out yet.
The back of the S6 looks nice but glass back isn't practical and the front looks the same as the last few galaxy's.
battery was a 10 fold improvement over the older phones (although the s6 will have the same tech) the screen resolution is fantastic, (again same as s6 but bigger)
i find the s pen a gimmick, although useful occasionally.
the s6 is still over half an inch smaller screen size, and has no expandable memory, so you need to commit at purchase.
yes the processor will be fractionally faster and it will use ddr4 as opposed to ddr3 ram, BUT - woo bl00dy hoo. !!
A friend of mine who is out at MWC this week says the S6 is an all-over finger print magnet. She described it covered in smudges, but a sexy bit of kit.
I think the finger print smudges would annoy me, but because the casing has that lovely green/blue shimmer effect, I wouldn't want to put a case on it. #firstworldproblems
I'd miss the sd card expansion too much to upgrade,
How does the camera on the note 4 compare to the note 3? I find the note 3 camera a bit on the poor side after my S4
In regards to cases I've just purchased a ridiculously expensive Mercedes Benz iPhone 6 case because I wanted a solid leather case for my new phone. It's hard to find a good looking flip case with magnetic clasp these days.
I also bought a nice gold metal case for my note 3 when I had it. Got it installed, screws and all and then found out it blocked the phone signal:(
The camera on the note 4 is significantly better than the camera on the note 3. I had the S5 which has a 16 mega pixel camera and that was light years ahead of the camera on the note 3. The camera on the note 4 has OIS and is even better than the one on the S5. The S5 camera imo is even better than the one I have on my current iPhone 6 plus imo. The note 4 camera should be a cracker.
Is this the normal way a Note 3 displays discovered networks when you do a manual network scan??https://www.dropbox.com/s/xws1mup214fi5je/Screenshot_2015-03-03-22-33-10.png?dl=0
On my S4 with the same sim it would display the network name and network type such as 4g,3g or 2g, with the note 3 I get just these basic network names, no way of knowing what they are?
Don't get me wrong, the Samsung S6 looks stunning, but the Note series has that something different for users who want the best of everything.

Wow, I don't want to spend money on one contract yet alone 2
It's interesting though, because I always wanted to upgrade to the Note 4, mainly because of the AMOLED screen and resolution, but love the look of the S6.
The thing is though, I will stick with iPhone because I have an iPad, and it's easier to have everything using one platform - and everything is linked to iCloud.
I was sick of having to deal with both Android and iOS. Using just iOS has really simplified things for me. I just wished the iPhone had an AMOLED display and higher res.
