    I love this phone, I had a Samsung S3 for several years and when this phone came out I was excited . and when best buy offered a $250.00 gift card I diffentently was getting it. I Love this phone but I wanted it in GOLD and Best Buy doesn't have it yet. Hopefully they will soon so I can exchange it for that color. Only have 14 days to do that so , maybe , maybe not. Anyway I love the phone.

    Equal or better to iphone in every way except for Siri. I like the 32Gb of storage & the camera is far superior to previous model.

    I made the mistake two years ago of switching from Samsung to an LG android. To be fair the phone it self had a a unique feature I liked with the knocking glass. but other wise I spent my last two years regreting my decision. Now I am super glad to be back in the Samsung family. That is quality and ingenuity.

    It's my first Samsung phone, all (and I mean all) of my other ones before were htc phones. I was reluctant to change, but since my wife had switched from Nokia to Motorola to htc to Samsung, I decided to give it a try. And I am not dissatisfied with it, as the matter of fact. I wish it was a little louder, specially when I connect it to Bluetooth, and I try to play my music in the car. The htc one m8 I owned before was really loud, I loved it. All the other features on the note 5 are outstanding nonetheless.
