Samsung Galaxy Note 4 gets a firmware update, not Lollipop 5.1

Paid top dollar for Note 4 International Version (unlocked - SM-N910F). It was the single most expensive smartphone at the time. I am still waiting for Android 5.1.1 Lollipop while every single other smartphone released at the time already have it, including some versions of this device. I bought it in January, when it was released in my country.
If this is not treating their customers like garbage, I don't know what is.
When I buy a premium product from a company, its flagship, its most expensive product, I expect to receive premium support for it. I had to wait MONTHS to receive 5.0 after all other devices received it, and it was this device's first update! In what world is this acceptable?
This was the last drop of trust that I gave Samsung when I bought this device. Also, it was the last time I spent money in a Samsung product. Never again.

Absolute rubbish... Poor quality and undue delay in downloading emails. Looks like a cheap imitation set up now not high end quality for sure!!! Will be dumping this and moving to Apple as soon as I can. What were you thinking???

The Lollipop update package was pushed out to my Note 4 by EE last week.
I immediately disabled the Software Update process and haven't installed it yet.
Has anyone using the Note 4 on EE dared to run it yet?
If so did it have the reported negative consequences on battery life, typing lag, app hanging etc?
Having seen what the Lollipop update did to my partner's Galaxy S4 LTE, I am very nervous about installing it. I might wait for 5.1 to be released.

Mutya1123 , 09 May 2015Yes! Annoying. I want to revert to kitkat. Can that be done? Yes. Download firmware from Sammobile.com (click firmare on top, type in your device's code, download. You have to register there to do this if I remember clearly.) Once you have the file, you need "Odin", Google it. Beware of scam/malware sites, it's not hard to spot the right one. Once you have both, put phone into download mode and flash the old firmware. Some people suggest doing a factory reset on Lollipop before flashing the 4.4.4 firmware.

System update for the note 3 is horrible....on the lock screen I don't like how I can't see if I have a text, missed call or email, just says Verizon wireless (I know what service I have) put something useful. The icons that are on the lock screen don't even do anything. The colors and font used through out the phone make it look old especially the menu pull down screen. Sometimes I click on contacts and it goes to my call log. The link for my bookmarks of Web pages sometimes it pops up and sometimes not. If the system doesn't change I will consider trying an Iphone.

I really don't like the update with my note 4, the call screen seems to lag when I dial #'s and I don't like how how it has white blocks when you get messages on your lock screen or when you swipe down, they need to do another update and change a lot of the things back to how it was.

Don't like the new software update. It changed my screen colors. It is slow, uses my batter life time up quickly. I would of preferred an update and all of my settings color schemes to remain the same. I am switching to apple.If you don't fix this you will many customers. Very disappointed. Changed the entire configuration of my phone.

So someone has been rocking this minor revision for 1 Month and are saying that it's "Not new"...Well of course it's new! These things aren't pushed out to everybody at the same time. I'm still on Kit Kat, so anything with the number 5 or slightly above would be "New to me":).It's good to see that V 5.0 is still being worked on,improved and pushed out :)

Everyone knows Iphone is piece of crap.
Why you have to jailbreak?.
Apple is just obsolete,i had an iphone in the past and I got rid off it,because I was shorthanded ever.
Every single move,you must to go to the computer.

You must be kidding with the crap apple Iphone.
Sincerely, since samsung built the samsung galaxy s3.

I googled this question just this afternoon, while on lunch at work. When I got home and my phone connected to Wi-Fi, it immediately started downloading an update...it was Lollipop, V. 5.0.1
No major changes that I can tell yet from three most recent Kit Kat. But still an interesting situation.
