why is Samsung pushing the note back when there is now S6 and S6+ but battling with the release off the note 5 Edge.

Anonymous, 13 Jul 2015What about u start your company and make the design u like?I did, I drew it on paper with my crayons :) Looks like the Note 4. It'ss running 4.4.4, only cause 5.0.1 has some issues, like I could not find the right color crayons and I can't draw circles very well.

Again with micro SD.
It's almost certain it wont have it. But that has nothing to do with the design. Look at sony, they manage to put a slot on the sides, an they even have IP ratings.
Z3+ even uses the same slot for sim and micro SD, meaning there is no more slots on that device than on the S6.
There are other reasons.
No speed compromise!
And controller. The controller for the fast memory in the S6 does not have built in support for micro SD. slower memory controller chips, used by other companies, does support micro SD.
I dont feel like it's that big of an issue.
Sure the version with bigger memory costs more than adding a micro SD card, of the same size. But for most 32GB will be enough, even with OS and essential apps. Enough for even using QHD video setting.
If you need backup, well just connect a USB-otg flash-drive.
If you have plans to watch HD or UHD videos, with as little compression as possible on your device, then why? It's a small screen. It might have a good resolution. But surely you cant be that picky when watching movies on a small device on the go.
Removable battery. Well, only a small minority actually uses that. Although they are overrepresented in forum threads. Of which I do believe many just likes the idea of it, and has never used multiple batteries, or ever bought a new battery.
It is a good feature. But if it comes at the cost of design... Design results in more sales than keeping that feature.... Samsung will eventually ditch it. If it's this generation Notes or next.
And batterypacks has really taken off lately.

vrvly, 13 Jul 201516Mp will mean goodbye for me with moving to probably sony/... moreThe S6 duo and the Note 4, captures at least as much details as the 1020, meaning, that the actually captured resolution, is the same or higher.
The 1020 has a 41 Megapixel sensor, that is true.
But you have to put it behind a lens, and that small lenses today, can't capture anything near that high of a resolution.
It also has a lowpass filter, as do many cameras, including most DSLRs, which also reduces resolution.
Then there is processing.
So you havent felt 38MP, really. As only the actually captured resolution is relevant.
I like the idea of having super high resolution, to capture details, and if necessarry crop it to zoom in on details. But as the caputred resolution is no higher than the latest competition, you can do that just as well with those mobiles. But no, we dont have super high resolution in mobiles today.
And even in high end fullframe cameras it's hard to make use of it, as it requires a good tripod with weights, to keep the device from moving even a tiny bit, and blur pixels. And with even smaller pixels in mobiles, the device is even more sensitive to movement.

why samsung does not stop making shitty phones. They should make lower & middle range phone. Samsung's high end phone is really horrible. You may argue every samsung phone drops 30-40% price in 3/4 months, thats true . But look at their premium(my a**) phones network issue, becomes hot, lags in opening apps, useless cores , RAMS..........
Ppl should stop buying their phones

the one i dislike from the rumors is the size of phablet, it only 5.6inch it even smaller than note 4, man this is a note not a ordinary phone, so the size should atleast 5.8 - 6 inch

[deleted post]A whole bunch of phones are oddly that thick from LG, htc , and moto. And I mean their to end ones.
And it clearly said that's the camera not the actual phone.

Remember when Note 3 came? S5 took the design language further. And when alpha came,note 4 took the design language further. And now its note 5 and definitely will continue to take the S6 design language further. So don't expect note 5 or any future samsung devices to be removable battery again. As more than 90% of all devices these days are now closed battery covers. Samsung's last legend was the note 3 and note edge and i doubt these kind of kings will ever return back.
