Great Device but missing some things

The note 5 is a great phone. It's a workhorse and allows you to get a lot of things done on the go. The curved edges on the back allow it to fit nicely in your hand. The S-Pen has been improved with the ability to write a memo on your sleep screen and the way you have to press it for it to pop out. The speaker being located on the bottom is a huge improvement from the 4. The camera is superior and takes great photos in low light and even has a full manual mode which is cool but a little tedious to use. The major downfall of this phone is the move towards a fixed back which doesn't allow for interchangeable batteries or storage expansion via an SD card.
Pros: Realistic color, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, camera
Cons: can't change battery, can't expand memory
I would recommend this to a friend!

I wish the Note 5 wasn't as slippery as it is so it would be easier to grip. Otherwise it has been flawless and an excellent product.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight
Cons: too slippery

Imporved from the Note 4, but...

I like the style of the phone, as well as the performance. However, I do miss the ability to switch my micro SD card and battery. Batteries are the first things to bust on phones and now by force I'd have to get a new phone entirely if there was a problem with the battery.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, like the hidden stylus
Cons: unable to change battery, unable to change my micro sd card
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Note 5 successfully proceeds the Note Edge that i had. I've gotten better performance from it and the upgraded S Pen is amazing. The only things that it doesn't have an expandable memory and the new Android perform doesn't let you cycle through. But I'm loving it and i will continue to be a Samsung customer.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight
Cons: no expandable memory

There Are So Many Things To Love About This Phone
on December 15, 2015
Posted by: SapphireOrchid

The Note 5 is by far my favorite phone that I have owned...I love it far more than any other phone that I've had. There are so many features that I love about this phone, including: the display, the S pen, the speed, the design, and so much more.
I had been waiting to get a Note phone for a long time, and this one did not disappoint. The only con (if you can even call it that), would be the non-removable battery. I prefer having a removable one so that it can be replaced if needed, but not having a removable one isn't too big of a deal to me. The new design and the rapid charger make up for the battery issue in my eyes.
As far as the battery life goes, it's probably better than you think. I use my phone quite a bit throughout the day and still only end up needing to charge it at night, and that's with having the display brightness up, taking calls. and having tons of background apps open. The rapid charger is a nice feature...I would hate to think how long it would take to get from zero battery all the way up to a full charge without it. I'm not sure exactly how long it takes to get from zero to full charge, but you can always turn the phone off to charge it for half an hour if you're really desperate to get it charged even faster. There is also a power saving mode that you can use during the day to help maintain the battery, which works quite well.
Another component of this phone that I am crazy about, is the S pen. I use my S pen frequently to do everything from drawing, to screen grabs, and everything in between. I also really enjoy using the S pen to write memos while the screen is off...definitely a nice feature for those like me who have a million things that they remember they need to do the next day while trying to sleep. It's perfect for this if you don't want to turn on a bright screen when you're half asleep just to jot down a memo or reminder.
The camera is also amazing, although the colors aren't always quite true to reality. The images are crisp and beautiful, especially when using the rear facing camera. The only time this camera struggles, is in low lighting, but even pictures taken under low lighting conditions come out decent. As you can tell, I don't really have anything bad to say about this phone. I know this review was lengthy (sorry about that), but hopefully it will help some of you who are on the fence about getting this phone.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, Lightweight, camera
I would recommend this to a friend!
