Step backward

I like the note 5, but I'm disappointed that there is no sd card slot. Really have to watch your storage I have the 32 GB note 5. I wasn't going to pay so much extra for double the storage.. Also the back does not come off, so you can't have a spare battery if you needed one. The 4G signal quality is not what it used to be. I never had dropped calls with the note 3. The note 4 had a lot of issues. thats why I bought the note 5. If I could have, I would have purchased another note 3. My husband is using my old one, and my carrier doesn't offer Note 3's anymore. Pros: camera is really improved. Can be opened with a double tap of the home button. Screen size. I like the big screen. S pen. Love it. I find it easier to write messages, ect. because I have big fingers that don't always hit the right button on the keyboard Being able to have 2 apps open at the same time. More settings options Fingerprint lock is great Cons: No sd card. I feel Samsung took a step backward with that move. No removable battery 4G signal quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love my new note 5. I've used iPhones and Android devices in the past. Some of them were good and some just adequate. But this phone has everything I need ... and quite a few things I'm sure I haven't discovered yet. It is a perfect size and there isn't anything I can't do with it, significantly reducing the need to lug multiple devices around. I think I'm a note user for life!
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, great size

I switched to a note 5 from an s3 and I was worried that the size difference was going to be a huge disappointment but it's not! I love everything about this phone! The stylus and notepad make it easy to take notes when I'm doing other things and the camera takes great pictures!
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Truly an amazing phone

So after owning a Note 2 and a Note 4, I thought I would Try an I Phone 6 plus. Bad idea, the phone worked fine but it just wasn't a Note. A few stand outs for the Note 5, screen is awesome!!! Battery life is fine, keyboard is incredible and extremely functional. There is no comparison in my eyes, Samsung has set the bar extremely high with the Note 5, its better looking, more functional, really really beautiful screen. They have removed a ton of bloatware and Touch Wiz is (dare is say it) not an issue at all. Thank you Samsung for creating a phone that not only acts great, but looks great as well. If I could pick a single shortcoming it would be the speaker, its just average. not an issue as I use a bluetooth speaker when playing music. I love my Note 5, I mean LOVE IT......!!!!!!!
It has a large, clear screen with great resolution. The stylus is great for people with big hands and big fingers. It also keeps the screen clean. I'm a resident manager, and I use the stylus to draw diagrams and take notes. The voice feature on the camera is great for taking pictures in tight spaces, which I do a lot of. I had the S6, and I liked it (I passed it onto my daughter that loves it), but I needed a bigger screen and the Samsung Note 5 delivered. It has a bright screen that is easy for me to see. In my job, I need a tough phone, and the Samsung Note 5 has proved itself to be very tough and durable. It's lightweight, which is a bonus for me. I have to carry tools, so I need a slim phone that's easy to carry. My true decision to get the Note 5 was a plumber that had the Note 4; he put it through the wringer and it's performed flawlessly.
I was very reluctant to upgrade my phone from the Galaxy 4 to the 5 note. I am very happy that I did. It has come in pretty handy for writing down assignments and such.
