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.

    Purchased the phone because of the Note feature. I love it. Constantly writing notes to myself. Grocery lists and to do list right at my finger tips.

    Great phone, recommend especially if you like being to use a stylus or your finger for typing. Verizon is a great phone company to work with as well.

    I enjoy the auto correct when typing. Something my old Samsung didn't have. I not had the phone long enough to say a lot about it. So far it is great.

    My biggest problem with most new devices is the lack of details on how to do things on it and this is no different. Using the phone as a phone was fine but learning some of the other functions required some work.

    Switched from an iPhone and was hesitant but stick with it! Awesome phone and the larger size isn't too bad. Was hesitant but glad I stuck with it.

    As a first time cell phone owner various people encouraged me to get an iphone but when I saw the stylus on this phone and what it could do, I was sold. Am loving it and am learning more all the time with the help of the staff at the Samsung desk at Best Buy. There are so many great things this phone can do and - for a die hard list maker - the phone is custom made.

    Kim loving this phone. It is great, it has all the features that I want. The only thing I don't like is that you can't be on the phone and on the Internet like you can on the note 4 but other than that it's great.

    I'm happy with the phone although it is bigger than I wanted. I am getting used to carrying it differently than my last phone because of the size.

    Before I bought this phone I had a galaxy s5 and I loved that phone. However it took a dive after I got it wet and wasn't working right. Instead of getting another galaxy I decided to try something new with the note 5 and I absolutely love it, it's a tad bigger than the s5 but I've gotten used to it. It's very professional, haven't had a problem with it yet

    This phone was not my first choice but after reading the reviews, I decided to try it out. The price that Best Buy sold it for. I could not resist. Since then I have liked my phone more and more each day.

    The s pen is awesome. Size of the phone is great for use bad for carrying. Not a bad phone by any means, just prefer the overall functionality of the iphone.
