Positive feedback also highlights the phone's features, design, and performance. However, some users expressed disappointment over the lack of expandable storage and the absence of an SD card slot.

    We were deciding between this and the Samsung galaxy 6....after talking with a sales associate decided on this...great price and it functions great! Will see in time how the battery life lasts.

    I haven't gotten the chance to use all of the applications associated with the note feature, so I can't really review it yet. The unit itself has a few glitches, nothing I can't live with, and they seem to be working on fixing them. The swipe feature is ridiculous.

    I upgraded from the note 3 and have no regrets for doing so. The phone works well and fits my needs--ONLY negatives no dock clock, and notifications volume is not what the other phone was.

    Replaced my Galasy S4 with the Note 5 in December 2015, and couldn't be happier with the purchase. Samsung continues to make quality phones, and this doesn't deviate from that path. The screen size is large enough to easily read browse the internet, read documents (among other tasks), but doesn't feel overly bulky. Note taking is also a breeze using the S Pen and included S Notes program. Overall, I can't recommend this phone enough!

    Bought this as a replcament for a phone for one of the lines that I had. My son had not been able to put this down ever since. The big thing was the gift card incentive that came with it.

    My wife's first smart phone and she is very pleased with it. She really loves the camera. Big screen helps her poor eyesight. Highly recommend this phone.

    This is a good phone better than 6 edge plus, but does have some Wi-Fi problems but other than that I am happy with the phone, except its not made a strong as the Galaxy 5, I am worried if it will hold up, I got the insurance and case which I never did before

    This is my second one of these had problems with the first one. The people at best buy were awesome in helping replace the phone and setting it up even staying a little late after the store closed.

    Never purchased a phone thru Best Buy, only at the Verizon store. Would do again, just took a while to figure out all of the facts.
