I am quite fond of the features of the Note 5 in upgrading from a Note 3 few months back. There are features I still have to explore. I love the pen and notes. The phone is quick/responsive to touch and processing. Call quality is good. Like that fact that new features were added which prior you had to acquire apps like the flashlight. The picture quality is awesome. Rhe battery life is not bad for smartphone. The quick charge feature is Awesome! A great performer that is versatile for work and play.

Although I miss a lot of the features on my Samsung Galaxy 4 this phone is very fast. The camera is amazing. Certain things don't play properly but other than that I'm happy with my Samsung Galaxy Note 5.

Upgrade from the note 3. Got an otter box to protect it. Much lighter than the last one. Impressive pen functionality. Camera is great.
The unlock functionality can be odd to get used to.

Haven't had one hint of stutter or force closing since i got it. Finally cleared out open apps for the first time yesterday but only because I wanted to shorten my history. Phone feels great in the hand. Battery lasts all day. I was disappointed by the lack of sd, removable battery and the ir blaster, but those were all things that were nice to have but weren't absolutely necessary. I feel that all the steps forward far outpace the sacrifices.

The functions of this is phone is impressive, you need to use the phone often to learn the new operating system as it is quite different from previous systems. Fantastic new features. The camera is very high resolution but uses more memory. Picture and video camera on the Note 5 is very responsive and I can now leave my camera at home when traveling.
The phone is heavier than my previous Note 2 which can cause fatigue when lying on the sofa and playing a game. I am not a heavy game user so I don't see any lag on the phone, but phone is very responsive on all features.
I am disappointed with the glass on the back of the case, I put phone down very carefully as I am afraid the glass will shatter. I don't use a case because I like my phone thinner. I would recommend any case for the Note 5 as it feels fragile. With my Note 2 I can just flop it on a table without any concerns.
I noticed the wireless charger sometimes does not charge phone so be careful when placing phone on wireless charger and ensure the charging light is on.
The Note 4 maybe a better choice for busy service professionals as the Note 4 seems to be built for rougher handling. The Note 5 is a beautiful and sexy phone but I guess Samsung is going for the modern design and not for heavy duty rough handling business use.
I highly recommend the 64gb unit as no additional memory will be available. I also purchased the pearl white unit as finger prints is not as visible as on the black unit.
I would give the Note 5 a 5 star but the glass on the back is a concern

Amazing screen and performance. I was also happy to see that the cell reception is much better because I live in an area that is not well covered. As with any large screen phone, battery life does suffer a bit but hopefully this will be remedied in a couple years. Would be nice if the battery could be removed by the user. And ... the camera is greatly improved over my older Note 3 with more detail than I would have expected.

Phone works well. Stable build. Had my wisdom teeth put and decided to watch a video tutorial to be sure I really know what the phone can do. No complaints as of 1 week. This phone has very good multitasking capabilities, and though i will not be using the S Pen often, i may actually use it to write a quick note, which is one thing that I find practical about the S Pen. Picture quality and the UHD/4K capabilities look great.

I was skeptical with this as the last phone i has was the Note 4 and the service on it sucked..!! This one blows that one away. Love this device.. just wish the memory was expandable .. bad move Samsung... wish it was at least available in 128gb, i take a lot of pix n videos.

I am so pleased with this note 5, best buy's service, and having Samsung representatives inside the store. Buy this at Best Buy.
I got the 64 memory. Best Buy did not carry the 128. 4 RAM is very useful. So much better the 2 or 3 ram in others. I notice the difference.
Phone call reception is better also...a pleasent surprise.
