    The Note 5 is great update to the series. Saw other online reviews that complain about no SD card. I had a 32g Note 2 and a 32g SD card. Never ever got to the point where I used it all up. Great phone. Still working on learning all it can do. Like the multiple screens and being able to change the theme's of the phone. Thank you Samsung for another great phone in the series.

    Although the Note 5 has some nice upgrades, why the limit on memory with no card.

    It would be perfect, if it had expandable memory.

    The title is accurate. The only point that could have been improved upon this item is the addition of expandable memory.

    This is my first "Note". Was a little disappointed that they made these smaller than the Note 4. It is also strange that the back is made of glass! Yes you better get a superior case to house this thing. As with a lot of phones these days it does not have a removable battery, and that's another drawback. Aside from those things, it's processing speed and functionality, outweigh it's flaws.
