    This phone has a great camera. The screen is super sensitive to touch, and the device is light enough to conveniently carry around. It has long battery life and the luxury of wireless charging. Try it!!!

    I love my Note 5! The s pen has been upgraded and now is fasterrible and easier to use. Lots of screen space, but narrow enough I can comfortably hold it in one hand. And the camera. Is. Awesome.

    I upgraded from a an S3 to the Note 5. Much faster processor, pages load quick and smooth. I didn't think I would like the note pad, but I use it daily. Love it! The camera is much better too.

    If you enjoy a stylus, this is the phone to get. I finally upgraded from my Note 3 and glad i did. The note 5 just feels much more sturdy and of course much quicker with the upgrades given.

    I switched over from an iphone and I was skeptical at first; but after getting used to the size, I am enjoying using the phone for watching videos and working on various documents. The screen size and stylus come in handy more often than I expected them to.

    I am very pleased with the Galaxy Note5. The size is perfect. It's a little larger than the average phone which I find pleasing and easier to read. It is sturdy and easy to use.

    And to go wrong with this one. It is quick, sleek and tons of fun. Didn't think I would use the pen but it is great to have and really easy to use. Great experience to far.

    I like the phone very much. Would have given it a 5 star rating if it had speakers somewhere but the bottom of the phone. I tend to cover the speak when I hold the phone. Great camera, easy to use and get great results. Even for a beginner.

    So. The battery life, for me, is AWESOME! I hardly ever NEED to charge mid day...but if you do the super fast charging is unbelievable. The S pen is a great tool as well!

    Great phone, much larger screen than my old SIII. A lot easier to process applications on the larger screen. Still learning all the bells and whistles of this phone.

    I bought this phone because my son suggested it over the Galaxy 6 edge. I must say I love the stylist and its user friendly. I'm still learning about the extra features. However, what I needed to know to get by, I learned on my own.

    We bought these to replace my parents aging dinosaur flip phones. They picked up on how to use a smart phone pretty quick using this phone. It's easy to use and the pen comes in handy for when my dad texts. The only down side to this phone is it does not have an SD card slot, otherwise I would have bought this instead of the S7 due to more verity of cases in the otter box defender series
