    There is a lot of great features like opening two apps at one time, taking notes even before you turn your phone on the the home screen with the stylist. The problems I do run into how ever is that the phone doesn't have built in apps already such as the iPhone does. Like the flash light, calculator, and saving photos on this phone is a pain. Beyond that it's great.

    Switched from Windows phone (Lumia 1520) to Note5 and find it to be the best move. I highly recommend it.

    I love this phone. So far, I haven't had any problems with it. Although it is big, it's not much bigger than the phone it replaced (Galaxy S4). Having the S pen is a great addition.

    Since the first note came out, I have been hooked. Samsung has continued to make an awesome product. Love the pop out stylus and who could resist the camera. Worth every penny.

    I got the Note 5 as a birthday gift for my husband, he absolutely loves it. Having the S pen comes in handy when writing down contacts and information for our business.

    Had to return both Note 7s I bought because of supposed bad batteries. I wanted a similar phone with similar features. The Note 5 was a great fit.
