You dont need a camera, fingerprint reader, ram, stylus , premium look and feel, fast processor or anything? So get yourself a budget device... Make sure that has swappable battery(coz many dont..even in budget phones).. And you can keep swapping its battery all day and put sd cards... Coz you dont need a note or any flagship.That would be a FUNCTIONAL "smart" phone for you

How many microphones it got? Not like it matters something if they are trash, so find out max sound pressure levels that can note5 withstand without distortion. For now Lumias lead...
And sammy do not says much, maybe they are not proud?.

I guess i'll be waiting for note 6. From 3 to 6. Hopefully there might be great changes in features and specs that i wish to have rather than a note 4 or 5 upgrade. Until next year. ^-^

Akash, 23 Aug 2015Guys losing their minds over non replaceable backs??? Have ... moreI dont care about looks, I care about function, and Sammy always built the Note series around function. as for the improvements you said..
1: Better front and back cam - dont care, im not a professional photographer, even the pictures from my note 1 are good enough for now.
2: Better fingerprint scanner - dont care, never lock my phone anyway
3: Better RAM - dont care, asus zenphone has 4gb of ram too, and sammy uses such poor memory management, you could put 10gb ram and it wouldnt mattter.
4: Better processor with 64 bit architecture - even a lg g4 can run 99% of apps without any stutter, this chasing after top specs is kinda useless now.
5: Better software implementation of stylus or s pen - dont use spen, a lot of people never touch it.
6: And finally it looks worth its price. - until you drop it, that is

Guys losing their minds over non replaceable backs??? Have you been living in a cave...??
People loved htc when they came up with the "beautiful" m7 which btw sealed off its battery too! And mocked sammy for sticking to their cheap design.... Finally samsung makes the best looking phones... And people still criticise for the battery?? Hypocrisy is all you can do.
Seriously sony sealed it off with z seires! Htc since last 3 years with m7 and so on!..moto x sealed it too last year onwards... Nexus6 as well...so basically every flagship android and iphone always kept it sealed!
So apart from LG G4 there isnt another flagship that offers removable battery...
And Samsung was the last to follow... Stop criticising... You hated it when it looked cheap but it was removable... Now you hate it cause it looks good but doesnt offer removable battery...please find another comparable phone that is better...
And those who say note 4 is ... Wait for it:
1: Better front and back cam
2: Better fingerprint scanner
3: Better RAM
4: Better processor with 64 bit architecture
5: Better software implementation of stylus or s pen
6: And finally it looks worth its price.
And there are more features..these were just a few off the top..All that for SD card and bettery is acceptable...if not awesome.

Heard they will launch note 5 somewhere in September, but that's not official. Lets hope they release note 5 soon in India and at an affordable price.

Anonymous, 23 Aug 2015so note 5 is pretty much the same as note 4, but a lot less... moreOr it's better everything except that the battery can't be removed and no SD slot. And the SD slot was left out for a reason.

5 years I have bought all Top Mobile Samsung because it had an exceptional competitive advantage - replaceable battery and a slot for Micro SDXC cards. The greatest stupidity from Samsung is that it has repealed its greatest competitive advantages. Therefore, I quit with Samsung and seek an alternative - a different brand mobile phone that offers replaceable battery and SDXC cards. I'm sorry for Samsung, but Samsung is the only blame that he fled away customers

so note 5 is pretty much the same as note 4, but a lot less.
I have friends that are loyal to samsung and even they are not impressed with the direction they are going, gutting their devices of the sd card slot and removal battery. We know they are trying to be like apple, but they are not apple, they have to stay true to themselves, and not copy others.
dead giveaway is launching a paying service named after themselves and having the ear phone jack at the bottom. like cmon guys.
oh well. it's too bad for them.

AnonD-432317, 23 Aug 2015You Just pointed out the Fact and i totally Agree with you ... moreThat rear mounted speaker grill doesn't bother you? I mean obviously not for listening to music or stuffs but placing it on a couch or bed screen up will muffle the alarm sound right? Since I have started using the Note 3 I can't mention how much I appreciate speaker grill being on bottom (or at any side would do for that matter).

Samsung should give buy1 get1 free for note5 because it is so fragile that 1m drop cracks your phone lol. Just one drop and 850$ is gone. So beware, potential buyers.

Well,..we will not get it in Europe,...but,...still no RADIO FM! WALKING AND USING PUBLIC BUS,...NO WAY I GET IT!!! AS WELL AS GALAXY S4/S5 AND S6!I left Samsung after
note 2 and s3!I probably was lucky noticed lags in every model,...
I took Galaxy Tab S 8.4 inches,...I wish I never did,...it's a unic, huge lag!!!bah!
Then I took ipad mini 2 Retina,...sometimes I have to close all applications and start again, some lags too but what annoyed me most is for.ex in Google plus the lack of possibilities of direct answers to comments in my posts,...this happens also in other famous applications!!!I am now using both ipad mini 2 retina WiFi 32 gb and galaxy tab s 8.4 inches wifi+LTE!!!!

I'm countinous user of note series I'm using note series since note 1 come out there
But now very sadly no more note series, very disappointing
Actually samsung is making people fool they forget their orignality in being copy of iphone
First time i saw the flagship is lesser in specs than previous model smaller battery and non removable no sd card max 64 gb onboard storage same screen same camera its a complete disaster
Waiting for iphone 6s
Switching to apple
Bye sammy!!!
