Love the phone however if I hadn't won it, I wouldn't have bought it. The lack of a replaceable battery, missing SD expandable memory and IR blaster actually made me write Samsung off my device wish list. With that said, don't get me wrong. The Galaxy Note 5 is a remarkable phone and I actually do love it. The build quality is exceptional yet it still seems that with this phone supposedly being geared for the power user, Samsung took a step backwards. If I were to loose this phone or break it today (and didn't have a protection plan), would I buy another? Probably not. Sorry Samsung, I've been a total Fan boy since the Galaxy S3, but the downgrade in features of the Note 5 was a disappointment.
Pros: Bright display, beautiful build quality
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no sd expandable memory, battery not replaceable, no ir blaster
I would recommend this to a friend!

My 3rd Note mobile and nothing short of awesome

This is my 3rd Note Mobile, I got hooked onto note series since the first Note release and was blown away by the features, screen size, clarity & performance. Since I am an android user this was my best go to Mobile and have been with Samsung for many years now.
I was hooked on to the S Pen and its features which I can use to enhance my creativity & drawings\doodling and every time a new note is released I am blown away by the enhancements.
Initially I was taken back by the no extra add on memory feature & built in battery, but the look and feel of the device makes up for it, though a bit disappointing about the color release in US - no titanium silver :( color, which I would love to have... but at the end of the day I love my Note 5...
Pros: Bright display, performance, s pen, creative
I would recommend this to a friend!

Out of all the Samsung phones ive owned, the note 5 is THE best one so far. I love this phone. Samsung products is all i buy
After having the Samsung Note 5 for going on 4 months now, I absolutely just love this phone. Samsung's technology just keeps getting better and better. I love the features being able to write directly on the screen, Samsung Pay is excellent, the new enhancements to the phone and it is so lightweight. The picture quality is superb and I do not think anyone on the market has been able to do what Samsung has done with this alone. Amazing pics. Yes, I was a little skeptical like everyone else with about loosing the SD Micro card but I have the 64G phone, I have barely used 18G. I have Samsung Milk with downloaded stations that I can listen to offline without burning data, same with Google Play Music. I have never been disappointed in anything Samsung has built from tablets, TV's, phones, watches, refrigerators and stoves. They just know what people want and like. Samsung keeps making great products and I can't wait to see the next best thing in phones in 2016.
