Overall, I love this phone. I would change placement of somethings that aren't adjustable and include other quick action changes (like screenshot without touching the screen). While still buggy, I am happy to have chosen this phone which helps me a LOT.
Pros: Bright display, Lightweight, featurific
Cons: performance in so-so
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great overall upgrade from note 4

Over all this phone is better than the note 4. I would like the phone to be a little easier to hold. It always feels like it will easily fall out of my hand. I'm ordering a case hoping it will help. The function of the stylist is so much more useful. It also has a very easy to use camera. The ability it add extra memory would be great.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable
Cons: can't add extra memory, headphones jack on bottom should be on top

Huge upgrade from S4

Way longer battery life. Awesome screen. Nice to hold, pen id a neat item, still haven't found it as a totally useful tool, no killer app.
Just the right size, not over huge like a fruit vendor product, and great performance. Wish Samsung had a utility to really transfer from phone to phone
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Lightweight, great camera

Smooth running

I really like the smooth operation of the Note 5. Although I'm still getting used to some of the operatIons, I'm impressed with what I've seen so far. Coming from a Note 2, the display is awesome and the camera is greatly improved. I am very disappointed that you can't add a micro SD card or a bigger battery.
I was a bit skeptical in the beginning because of the size. I owned a Galaxy S4 for 3 years and needed an upgrade bad. Now with this bad boy Note5! I gotten use to the size in just a few days. The S-Pen is the feature that got me to select it instead of a S6. I tend to write a lot of stuff down in my daily life and at work. With the S-Pen I pretty much jot down everything on my phone. I also really enjoy writing and editing photos with the S-Pen, there is still so much features that I haven't even tried. If you like a big screen for mobile gaming this is what you need NOTE5!!!
Pros: Inexpensive, Realistic color, Bright display, Durable, the specs, camera
Cons: speaker location

The Best Yet

If you're looking for a phone that not only looks professional, but also has the technology to keep up with your busy lifestyle and have many features as well as shortcuts, then this is the phone for u!
I absolutely love my Note 5 and this is the best phone out on the market specs and build quality wise. It runs smooth without any lag and the screen is just mind blowing! The high resolution display is great when you're streaming your favorite shows and movies or just doing everyday tasks such as check social media. The camera on this thing is a beast! 16 megapixle camera with crazy quick auto focus. You just cannot beat this device. None of the competitors aren't even close to what Samsung is offering with the Note 5.
