    Exactly the same SoC as the S6 and S6 Edge from a few months ago. What's the unique selling point of the Note 5 these days? The reduced battery? Gimmicky S Pen? Lack of SD card slot? Lack of IP67 water and dust resistance? Slightly larger screen?

    It's laughable that Sammy expects to charge hundreds of dollars more for this Note than for the S6, which is now getting a reduction due to poor sales. My advice? Get the cheaper S6. They are basically the same phone!

        Well, i am sad to say that i am no longer interested in this phone...i was contemplating this to be my next upgrade, but i think i will stick with LG phones, Samsung really is taking the wrong direction here...

              i dont get what the hate is about
              3000 is bigger then 2600 in gs6
              by the way in overseas they have wireless charging option everywhere
              also fast charge option
              its not 100% bullet proof but
              usb is everywhere just carry a usb cable
              weigh less then ur battery

                buy 2 of note5

                if the budget tight, buy two mid end droid

                the very best option is stay with note4+extra battery kit


                cheers!

                  what? in my country its already very expensive to buy ONE note 5s because of very high insane tax. and you are telling to buy two of them? no thanks. not everybody enjoy the contract system as you do.

                    The best way to have efficient usage is to buy TWO Note 5s - when you're about 15% power, transfer your SIM card to the 2nd, and charge with power bank that automatically turns off after a full charge. Repeat cycle.

                    This way, you can have your batteries efficiency two folds. Because you wouldn't want to go to a service center to have your battery replaced after 5 months later... Look at how difficult it would be just to change the battery to regain 100% efficiency:

                      Just open Sammy your eyes what happened to Sony, x3+Z4v bothe had Soc 810 2nd gen but all failure's. Now X5 by Christmas. Why becoz it has lost conscious by no innovation. SS 1080 not 4k.

                          Those are two very important features to the Galaxy line. Especially the Note by far.
                          And if the rumors are true that is the exact same SoC as in the S6 then that's the first time ever in a Note.
                          And they might pull a Sony and use the same sensor for a third time.
                          Again....not something usual of Sansung.

                            by reading all of you guys comments I concluded the following. You are just spoilt brats who expect the world from Samsung, just look around you and you'll see some people getting the S treatment as in 4-4s, 5-5s with almost nothing new in terms of storage, processing power, screen or anything else and yet they seem to be the happiest people living :D

                                  This is not shaping up to be good (in regards the Note 5): non removable / smaller capacity battery, no Sd support etc. All so Samsung can wrap the device in some poncy 'premium' design that in reality will only appeal to the uber-vain Karl Lagerfeld wannabe's out there.....and who lets be honest, are probably just going to buy an iPhone anyway......cause that's what they've always done.

                                  The Note series has always been about maximum functionality first, if the rumours prove to be true about the Note 5, then Samung will have traded much of that functionality for a nothing more than a pretty look. In this case the Note 4 will continue to stand as the best in the series.

                                  Here's hoping the rumours are wrong eh..........

                                    Ever noticed how the S-Pen has become 'just another' feature? The Note 1 was marketed as workmans' "Mate", it's only unfortunate that Sammy is dropping the 'all terrain' marketing of theirs. Mate 7 looks like my next phablet, why??? Radio, oh radio!Expandable memory (32bg + 128gb microSD), large battery capacity ( 4100 mAh), dual SIM...
