    Samsung can only get better. I went from a Note 3 to the Note 5. The extra features actually wowed me. The S-Pen is more fluid than all the others. And the Black Sapphire color is super awesome. I got the clear case so the color can still be seen!! Thanks Samsung. ^-^

    This was hands -down the best phone I have ever owned. It has a beautiful screen, snappy processor, and the SPen is not found anywhere else. Battery life left a bit to be desired, but a small price to pay for such a beautiful screen.

    This phone is amazing. I recently upgraded fromantic the note 3 and I am really impressed by the improvements. The phone looks great and is very easy to use. Best Buy is my new favorite place to buy phones. They make the process easier for me by providing a wider range of choices than I get from going to my carrier store.

    Have had the phone for 3 weeks and I love it. Performs perfect as a phone antenna is very strong. The touch screen is vibrant and can easily be adjusted to be fully visible in bright sun light. Battery life is good, average phone use it can go all day.

    Great phone, plenty of memory with upgraded version, despite missing the external memory. The camera doesn't seem to take the amazing pictures that the Note4 did, but it still gets great shots from time to time. I adjusted to the size pretty quick and am loving the s-pen. Call clarity is good and the ability to hold a call (which the Galaxy S4 could NOT do) is pretty solid.

    Wow, it's big. That's what all the girls will say when they put this beast in their hand. I have to say I haven't heard that before having this phone. I can honestly say I haven't had anything this large in my hand before, either! Awesome phone, great graphics, and a giant screen. The only bad part is no removable battery or memory card. Other than that, awesome!

    If you are familiar with the note phones this one is a lot better than the 4. When Verizon updated the 4 to lollipop they had a lot of signal issues. The 5 does a great job running lollipop and has an amazing display. Battery life isn't the best if you use it a lot. I'm not fond of the sealed design that no longer allows SD cards either.

    I have now had the Samsung Note 5 for less than a week upgrading from the note 2. So you can imagine the speed and efficiency of this note 5 is amazing! I can't imagine anything better on the market. With a note 5 I'm anxious to learn all the features and enhancements.

    Phone works great. Camera is unreal. Only complaint is the pixels on the phone started going out after 2 days. Took it back to best buy and got the run around for over an hour. Then they tell me they don't have another phone. So I will have to bring it back in a week. But make sure you do before your 14 days is up. Great customer service. Hope the new phone doesn't have the same issue when I get one.
