Perhaps Note6 will have both USB-C and Stylus-C.

      With non-removable battery, and then this, Samsung loves the customers to come on down to the service centers more often yeah?

        Doesn't matter if you do this by accident or on purpose - you're a retard.
        I had the Note 3 and 4, and no matter in what hurry I was in, I've always put the pen the right way in.
        I'm looking to buy the Note 5 as soon as I can because it's such an elegant bastard and I can't wait to sync my stuff on it!

          A subtle case of Darwinian Theory of Evolution.
          We must allow the simpletons of our race to purge themselves from society, not encourage their assistance and ability to continue to breed, so that we may progress as a species ;)
          They must learn that there are negative outcomes such as consequences for actions of unquestionable levels of careless stupidity.

              A great idea from Samsung : Don't go into the wrong ways...

                Next on Note6: the pen can be inserted only after the planets align.

                    A costly device would be used carefully by the user **IF** the user has paid through his pocket. Its as simple as that. You wouldn't toss around your expensive galaxy or iphone like the rough and tough Nokia's of the past.

                      NO SD card, No removable battery, no option of higher capacity (128/256GB), No real multitasking with even 4 GB Ram, and now this!! Hold on your previous Note3 or Note4. It seems these previous notes will be more expensive than the Note5 after sometimes!!!

                            Well, then this is not a children proof phone.

                            Another reason for me to skip this phone (and I was waiting for it).

                              Awesome comment by Sammy... yes definitely RTFM.
                              And I for one will be very wary about giving it to my kids.
                              In fact, my 3 year old would try to insert it face up or face down, but never once did she try to insert it in from the back.

                                I also have doubt on the click spring of the pen. Dont know whether it will function after a year of frequent use.
