    So far, this model has proven itself better than what I expected. The camera quality is so good that my friends don't believe that it came from my phone and not a expensive camera.

    I'm a galaxy customer since 3 years and have different phones as well such as LG, HTC etc. in the meanwhile. I bought this at Best Buy and confirm the Note 5 is really doing what it promissed and is my best cell phone I ever seen. No complains, no issues and always on top of everything you need from a cell phone. This is more than a cell phone!

    I originally bought the S6 Edge from the AT&T Store then I seen best buy had this deal at Best Buy so I returned my S6 Edge from the AT&T Store. I was gonna get the same phone but Best Buy no longer had that deal on the same phone so I had to get the Note5 to get the gift card. There wasn't a noticeable difference between phones (at first) except for that the S6 Edge has the "edges" of course and the Note5 has the S Pen, then I tried to use the Note5 w/ my Samsung TV and it didn't work. That's when I noticed that it doesn't have an IR sensor which the S6 Edge has. I never could get the Note5 to work with my TV but it's not a big deal.

    Being on the go constantly, it is the perfect phone for work. I used to carry a tablet and phone. Now I just have the galaxy note 5. Stylus takes note taking to a whole new level.

    This is a good phone. Much better than my note 4. The screen size is awesome! Aside from a few minor things like screen rotate flipping occasionally I have no problems.
