Love this phone. Amazing how quickly you get used to the larger size. Can be a pain at times trying to carry around (I am a guy so usually only have my pants pockets for storage), but manageable. Stylus is a life saver for myself with larger hands.

I have had the galaxy note 5 for almost a week and a half to say it's a great improvement over my old galaxy s 3. Performance and screen are so much better! I was worried about lack of sd expansion slot , however even with 32gb model, I don't forsee having issues with it. I would give it 5 stars except for Bluetooth compatability issues with activity tracker watch.

I love to play games on my Note. The Note 4 would get really hot and cause lagging in video. Not the case with the Note 5. The stylus on the Note 5 is so much easier to use as well, and MUCH easier to extract from the phone. The experience I get when coupled with the Gear VR is truly out of this world coolness. Also important, is the placement of the speaker on the bottom edge, instead of on the back of the phone like it used to be. It's nice to be able to listen to music while the phone is laying on the desk.

Great Phone. Camera takes amazing pictures with lots of options. Video is also good with slow replay. I do not use the pen much but when I do, it is very handy. I take a lot of notes with the pen bc that is easier than typing.

Bought this phone for my wife and she just simply love it. She is a pen-person so this phone is really of great help to her in her everyday task, at home or at work. And of course, bigger screen for her candy crush game.

I've had my Note 5 for almost a month and love it. The screen is the perfect size for viewing pictures and browsing the web. The picture quality is very good too. I would recommend it to my family & friends.

I went in to just get a movie and ended up upgrading my note 3. the note 5 truly is an upgrade from the 3 but I needed a new phone due to my battery constantly running low quickly. it was better just to upgrade than buy a new battery. I bought the dark sapphire color instead of gold. the color is different and I'd rather be unique. its color is very professional looking and has a nice shine to it. the camera is a great improvement, and so is the features and benefits. I left the apple a couple years ago for the Samsung and never looked back. the picture quality is clear and its easy to use phone. truly love it. would rather stay with Samsung as long as they continue to make great electronics like this.

I purchased the note as a gift to my boyfriend and he absolutely loved it. It is great if you like big screens and the extra features are very handy.

I love most everything about my Note5. Camera is very easy to use. Easy to navigate with pen. The only thing that I don't care for is the swipe to the right being Filpboard. I don't use flipboard,wish I could put what I like there. Overall ,love it.

This could be the best phone on the market but for a few items. Why did Samsung make such a great phone and leave out an sd card slot, have a non removable battery and worst of all no IR blaster? Except for those items its a great phone but without them and especially without the IR blaster its just average.

My husband and I both just recently got new phones. We both had a Galaxy and we're happy with them for over 4 years. So when we were ready to get new phones we did look around at several different brands of phone, but kept being drawn back to the Galaxy again. We decided on the Galaxy Note 5 and have been pleased. It has great speed, a beautiful display and we got the 32 for the memory and we like them so far. They are definitely bigger than the other models, but we are good with that, we like that the screen size is bigger and easier to see and enjoy. We are all basically carrying pocket size personal computers and do quite a bit with them, so the bigger display is nice.

It's been about a week since I had the phone, and so far so good. Great clarity on the pictures & videos. Fast processor. It's a great phone in which I haven't even explored all its possibilities

Great phone. Feels good in your hand. Very fast and responsive. Learning all that I can do with the S Pen.
This latest version of TouchWiz is very clean and fast. I highly recommend this phone.

I am very happy with the note 5. I love how long the battery lasts and how quickly it charges wireless and even with the fast charger. This is also one of the fastest phones I have ever owned.

As usual Samsung makes awesome and dependable product's that leave others behind. If we could get customer service to be that good Best Buy would be the place to shop.
We got 3 new phones, NOTE 5, S6 Edge, and a Nokia. Everything went good on Tuesday, the next day my Note 5 just had some Wi-Fi issues so I went the next day to just exchange the phone. That was it, just a simple exchange. Well out did not turn out simple, first I was there an hour and a half just to exchange and they could not exchange my phone unless I changed my plan. I said call AT&T and the said they could not. So I just said change and I would call AT&T later. So when they changed my plan we lost 30 gigs of roll over data. That sucked but I was ready to leave by then, thinking these people have no clue of what is going on, but there is more. Later that night my wife said she would get me the smartwatch of my choice, Very nice of her. Now remember I am north of Battle Ground going to Cascade Center. So I called today to verify watches were there and they were, told by person and website. So I make another 3rd long trip to purchase the Samsung S2 another excellent product. So as I am waiting for her to find it I am looking around and 45 minutes goes by and she them decides to help another customer and tells me to wait again. So after 10 minutes she takes the time to tell me that either watches can't be found. Now I feel like I just got royally screwed. Another 2 and half hour trip I left with nothing. That was my 3rd trip like this and I wanted to return everything we bought, phones and a bunch of presents but I just sucked it up and left. Not only did I lose time and lots of it, but data and no watch. But customer service really sucks there, they act like they are doing you a favor and you owe them.Rude, condensing, arrogant and a few others. I can say this I will not go back for phones or for much for that matter. I knew I have not been there for a reason but just did not know how bad it was. I even asked to speak to a manager but one could not be found, what a shocker.Just hope you have better luck than I did and will continue with Office Depot. Good luck.

The Note 5 has so many new features. I had a Note 3 and the Note 5 is so much more interesting. The picture clarity is better and so much you can do with it. I am a happy Note 5 user!
