I have owned the note 4 . Now I have a note 5 and can't even imagine owning another brand of smart phone. I was once a dedicated smart phone user of anther brand. And can't even imagine of ever going back.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sound is not as good as my HTC phone. Volume levels need to be increased so you hear the phone ringing when not right next to it

I have been a fan of the Note series for a while now. I bought in at the Note 2, had a 3, and now a 5. I love the device, but I am not blind to its flaws.
Pros: Amazing crisp screen! Very responsive, even during heavy resource games Light, yet feels very sturdy Clean interface for non-vanilla LOVE the S-pen for drawing, and still Wacom enabled for use of other Wacom tablet stylus
Cons: No SD card support No removable battery Slightly curve to edges of the screen, causing any glass screen protectors to have "halo" effect Smart Wiz still as bulky as ever Heat from CPU can get concerting, but never to hot to touch No more IR blaster
Overall I am happy with it. I knew going in that the SD card and Battery options were removed, but I still consider this a 'Con'. The device is blazing fast, but I hope that the new versions of android come quickly and the device can be optimized for the experience. My device has issues remembering the last audio program I was using, I will have been using a podcast app, and next time I press play, it will load the native music app, or even play a youtube. This may just be my device, but it can be frustrating. I with that the Note 5 had utilized the USB C, but for now its just the standard USB micro. I proffered the left button to the home to be the universal 'settings' button for all apps. Now it is the application tab. I love the new features, but I miss some of the older ones too. I stand by Samsung, as my home, we are heavy Samsung users, however, I wish that they would add features and not take them away.
Great phone. Great features. The color choice is good. The phone size is just right.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've had my Galaxy Note 5 for a few weeks now and i love it. The battery lasts all day and the 32gb is more than enough storage for my movies and music.
Pros: Bright display, Built-in speakers, Durable, Lightweight, battery life
