    This phone works pretty fast compared to the Note 4 that I upgraded from. My only problem with it: No IR Blaster. I found that it was very useful. Other than that, I went for the 64GB, seeing as the card slot was also eliminated. Phone is great otherwise.

    Bought it about it a month ago and so far, I am very happy and please. Haven't have any problems. Had Samsung S3 16 mgb before and last me a very long time until I upgraded to the Note 5 64 mgb. The only one thing is that can't add more memory, but is not really a problem if you get the 64 mgb. The sound on this Note 5 is great. The picture quality it's also really clear and owesome. I highly recommend a very durable protective case because it's very fragile.

    I've had this phone for years, now. It still works great. I'd like to get a Note8 but they cost too much. Maybe if the price goes down.

    This phone is excellent. It has great performance, great data speeds on Verizon, and it recently got a nice upgrade to Marshmallow. The battery life isn't as good as it should be, but the fast charging makes up for it

    Agonized over which phone would be my "new one". My previous phone was an iPhone 5S and I have an iPad as well, but sometimes paying for the apps was a problem and some apps weren't available. After reading about the Galaxay Note 5 I decided to check it out. Loved it. There is only thing I don't like about it is that I miss Siri. Otherwise, I've no complaints. I doubt I'll go back to Apple anytime soon
