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.

    Subtle, yet complicated changes from my old note 3 but, I'm working through them one at a time. Some changes I really like and some changes ARE NOT an improvement. Over all I'm pleased and happy with the purchase...I'm just not a big fan of change. Just learn the ins and outs of a phone and it's time for a new one!

    I have always been a fan of samsung. The note 5 is just as user friendly as the galaxy S 5 hat I've always chosen to use.

    It features are similar to that of the Note 8. I would still use the Note 5 if my wife had not damaged hers. We opted to upgrade to the Note 8. The Note 5 sailed thru the Notes 6 and 7. Great phone to get.
