    This phone has very nice features over the Note 3 that I had. I will say however that I wasn't told about not being able to use the phone and internet at the same time like I could with the Note 3. This would have been something that I would have had to think about before buying. I used this feature a lot with the Note 3. However this phone is very nice and has a great camera. Overall I like this phone.

    Love this phone. Ive been looking for a tablet but none have come close to what this offers. Main differences is the RAM. Most tablets only come with 2 but this comes with 4. Screen is the best size for phone and tablet combination. I currently use it for work and have no problem doing tasks before needing a PC.

    This is my third Note and they just keep getting better and better. My girlfriend has an iPhone 6s and is super envious of my Note 5. I would give it a 5-star but the salesman at Best Buy Mobile was WAY too pushy about adding the Geek Squad protection. I told him 3 times I didn't want it. Finally on the 4th time I told him to add it just so I could shut him up. I cancelled it the very next day.

    I had a Note 3 for several years and loved it. When I decided to upgrade, I had a hard time deciding between the Note5 and 6Edge. I picked the Note5 and love it! It is tons faster than my Note3 was and all the new features like Samsung Pay are incredible. I've had the phone for a month now and still love it!

    Had this phone now for over a week. The size is a lil tricky to handle in one hand but its extremely thin. The camera takes great pictures, even the front camera pics look great. I like that the phone charges extremely quick. One thing that i just dont like from the Note 5 is that the earphone jack is in the bottom.

    I prefer Android over Apple, so I do really like this phone. I find myself using the stylus quite a bit, which is surprising because I didn't expect to. Overall its a great phone. I do wish that you could still remove the battery and that you could still use memory cards like in the older versions.

    Great battery life, intuitive interface, fits well in the hand for such a big phone (this coming from a woman with smallish hands). Only disappointment for me is the lack of SD card slot.

    I love the stylus and the fact that it is built into the phone its self. I do wish it would do connect to more than one device at the same time as i have a samsung gear s watch but when it is connected i have to disconnect it in order to connect a bluetooth speaker. Otherwise love the phone

    It had been 3 years since my last phone update. Like a late library book, I was overdue. I switched from a Note II to a Note 5. It was easy to connect to everything. The Samsung app made it easy to transfer data. I even paired it to my new Samsung Gear S watch with ease. Great phone!
