    It has been a upgrade, but took away one key aspect of loving my samsung, the SD card... Sucks that we dont have it.but at least flashlight comes. Built in finally, I suggest really looking at videos on the cool.things your phone is capable of, and best downloading app is the peel smart remote for sure.

    I decided on the Note 5 over the others as I had good success with my Note 2. More impressive was the patient and detailed customer service I received .

    The Note5 is the first Note I have owned and it is great. The resolution is fantastic and the the phone itself if very good looking. Knocking a star off because I cannot replace the battery or add a SIM card. Would recommend for people who don't need a lot of memory.
