    Great phone. Love the camera. Stylus works well. Definitely would recommend. Is harder to use one handed but they have an option to make it easier. Otherwise perfect.

    After having a horrible experience with the S6, I was afraid to purchase another Samsung. After speaking to a Samsung rep in our sprint store about the Note 5, I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. I love it. I sometime find myself constantly all kinds of things on my phone when I'm supposed to be SLEEPING~

    I've been buying the Samsung Note since the Note 3 and I've love it since. The Note 5 is nothing less than what I expected. Besides the removal of the expandable storage & the removable battery, I have no complaints. Great features, beautiful display, and I love the feel of the new stylus design. Great job Samsung!

    I am a lover of Droid products, i have also had other Galaxy products. I love everything about the phone, Samsung has done a great job with making apps available through them. Sprint however, ... spend that much money and not be able to talk and run GPS or any other Internet. ...EPIC FAIL SPRINT...EPIC FAIL. I would recommend the phone.YESSS not the carrier.

    I love the note 5, I only have a couple of issues. 1. There were no 64 gig in white at the time of purchase and none in the district. 2. The 64 gig is definitely not enough memory for me personally. Samsung needs to make a 128 gig to keep pace with the IPhone/

    it's hard to complaing about a phone with a solid screen and size. but really wish it had a removable battery and sd card slot. it would make it a much better buy than the note 7 (althought note 7 is better it's far more expensive now)

    I love Samsung Galaxy products and had the Galaxy 3 for years. I purchased the Galaxy Note 5 as an upgrade and my kids keep showing me more and more features. one of my daughters has the iPhone 6 and uses my phone all the time when going on the Internet!
