Customer Ratings & Reviews

The screen of my new Samsung Galaxy Note 5 isn't a whole lot bigger than my Note 2 but it's brighter and the picture is better. The Note 5 is also faster than my old phone. Going from Kitkat to Lollipop required an adjustment but I got used to the new OS in a couple of days. I do miss swapping batteries and having a micro SD card. I feel confident that the 64GB will see me through. Bottom line, it's a solid performer.

Love this phone. Larger size makes display a little easier to read. Processor is fast. Camera is excellent with outstanding mode and edit features. Note taking is SO easy with instant access when stylus is pulled out and save to s note. Fast and convenient.

A great phone, after owning it for about a month and playing around with it i find that it is much faster than its predecessor and that is a good thing. Sure they share the same screen but you can't really get better than this any time soon. A lot of handy things such as changing themes and using the pen to write on your screen with or without the screen being on in the first place is cool. If your screen is off and you take out the pen to write on it then it will give you a black background. This is also capable of screen-writing and that is far out cool too, i use this feature a lot, Whether it be to point something out or to take a note about a post or web page or even just draw when you are bored. It does a good job. The SIM card is removable and is on the top of the phone. The only features i don't like is, unlike my note 4, the battery is not removable and that the SD card cannot be upgraded since it is vacuum sealed or whatever. Would definitely recommend this phone to anyone looking to upgrade or get a phone!

This is my first Samsung phone. I love the size and feel. The camera is excellent! Some complaints I read are not problems for me. The speaker is very loud even though it is on the bottom of the phone. The battery can't be removed which is no problem as my last phone was that way also. Seems to have good battery life and charges fast. Many desirable features which i am still exploring. No sim card slot. No problem as my last phone didn't have one either and it was only 32 gb. With 64 gb i probably won't need it. Overall I like the phone so far. Just need to get more comfortable with it as with any new gadget. I think i made a good choice.

Upgraded to the Note 5 from a S5. Both nice phones but the Note 5 processor speed and camera is something else. I have it for a month now and is a very nice phone. Battery life for my use habits is extremely good. Also the fast charging where it goes from 10% to 100% in half an hour is great feature. The size and quality of the screen is also great for my old eyes. Samsung transferring application duplicated my old S5 to the new Note 5 in a matter of a few minutes. All texts and attachments transferred right away from the old to the new phone. Did not even have to go to Best Buy for the setup, I did it all by myself.

I've really been pleased with large clear screen. Many of the menus and features saw significant upgrades for me from my S4 that I had before this. Camera takes great pictures. The tabs feature makes it easy to have multiple programs open and to close programs.

The Note5 is the best cell phone available now. It is a near-flawless phone. For such power from such a small device, the battery life is lengthy for the average user. The screen is beautiful if one wants to watch videos and the user experience is stress-free. No more lag from TouchWiz, as was common in the older phones. Many will complain about the lack of removable battery, but the only time I had to remove mine in the older models was when they froze, and that is not happening with this phone.

First of all, I had the S6 and decided to try the Note 5. Don't get me wrong, this is a huge step up compared to the S3 I had. Pros: Stylus and the features with it, large screen, and takes amazing pics Cons: Size is a little too big at times (I prefer the S6), no IR blaster, no quick setting to turn off data

I went from the Note 3 to the Note 5 and all I can say is WOW!! I mean I thought the screen on my Note 3 was good but the Note 5 screen blows it away!! I love all the new features of the S-pen that were improved too!! All I can say is I'm very happy with the phone. Oh and took pictures with my Note 5 at my daughters wedding and they turned out fantastic!! I got some printed off, they look awesome considering they were taken with a cell phone camera!!

Love the phone. I upgraded from the note 3 and am so happy i did. The screen and camera are amazing. The phone is fast and the new design is great

Best Screen, Best Camera, Fast, Slim, Durable! I was hesitant to switch from the Note 4, but glad I did. This phone IS an upgrade in every way.

Great screen, fast processor along with 4gb RAM, and a battery that lasts all day

Big screen, great resolution, way better camera 64gb is just enough space for all my apps, music, pics and movies.

Screen size is nice. The phone is fast and the battery is great.

I'm surprised this thing doesn't make sandwiches. I haven't been this excited or made up so many excuses to play with it since i started puberty. It does everything every other smartphone does but is bigger, faster, and Android! And whoever added the option for one handed mode, genius! Only downfall so far is the lack of previously optioned camera modes (i.e. sound and shoot), and dedicated camcorder function or app icon /button.

Phone very easy to use. The screen size is great. Camera great quality.

Other than the fact that the stylus is a cheap piece of garbage, the entire phone is extremely well made. I love the auto brightness sensitivity, the action memo, and the great quality camera. The gigantic sxreen helps a little, too. The only other thing i don't like is the fact that the stylus can be inserted backwards abs cannot be removed. DO NOT TRY THIS! It is a major design flaw and you will break that part of your phone. Something they need to fix before the phone is released... but hey, still a nice phone.

I was an LG G2 owner before I got the note and loved the buttons on the back but it was starting to hesitate and be slow. This is my first note and it is Awesome! Fast, no hesitation and what a screen. I am still getting use to the pen and have not figured out what I am going to use it for.

This phone is great, however it's weakness is storage. Since there is no microSD slot. Samsung should have up the base configuration to 64GB instead of 32GB and offer an option to go to 128GB. Beside that, there isn't much to complain. For a big phone, it feel very good in the hands but is a little slippery because of the glass back.

Loving the features of this phone. You can do screen shots with the s-pen and write notes on your screen shot. You can also draw on the screen. You can have multiple screens open and switch back and forth with any lagging.
