AnonD-229292, 21 Aug 2015what's the point of having a beautiful phone if it is easil... moreBuy yourself Nokia 1100 in that case because not only Note 5 but every phone with that big screen now a days crack on being dropped. Some in a single drop,other in five drops. It depends on how/where you drop.Unless u are re-incarnation of Newton to deduce the physics of how to counter gravity.
So stop thinking "what will I do with it" and get yourself Nokia 1100. Keep dropping and smiling and save the world some opera !!

Thank you for becoming like apple. I will not be buying any of your new phones because of this. One of the things I loved about my galaxy s5 was the Micro SD and removable batterie. And you took that away. Now I can't have a spare batterie charging so I can swap it out instead of waiting for it to charge up again. Thanks so so so much!!!

thanks guys for the review
but you forgot to test how loud is the speakers, Sunlight legibility, and screen brightness (also you should test the camera photos against the S6, there maybe some changes, Samsung is known on having bad revealings and omitting many updates and improvements)

Well, it would appear that those final words by gsmarena are the definition of beast.
But where can a European get one? What about region locking?

vrvly, 21 Aug 2015Q:1-is ISO800 absolute maximum?
2-when considering differ... more1. No, it can go at least twice that (ISO1600)
2. Depends on your budget and needs
3. A lot better than the mono low bit rate iPhone recordings, probably about the same as the G4.

Gsm Arena how strong is the ringing volume in dB on N5? On other phones you usually post this information on reviews and it would be great if you do the same on N5. Many thanks and great review of N5.

I don't think a lack of stereo speakers are a con. The tradeoff is too much for speakers that don't need to be used. If you actually want people to hear it just use a bluetooth speaker. I don't want my phone to have huge bezels for tiny stereo speakers (and they will always sound tiny- can't get around physics).

Forgot to add iPhone 6+ or the upcoming 6S+ ... morePotential? Are you high? Let's see, Note5 has twice the camera, four times the RAM, twice the screen, a higher screen-to-body ratio, a dedicated stylus and so much going for it that it smoked iBendy a couple of states ago, at almost the same price. Oh and I particularly dont like Samsung. I am using an iPhone right now. If you want a good phablet go with Moto X Style (if expandable memory and $400 is your range). If money is no object then go for Note5.
P.S. I dont think that many people actually use the S-Pen. I had a Note II and the pen was only used when someone wanted to doodle.

Anonymous, 21 Aug 2015this is one hell of an expensive phone for an android phone... moreYour embarrassing yourself, sit down before you fall over. Notice the elephant not in the room, excellent review, marred by the missing single statement, on the last page, "No iphone mentioned here, they simply don't belong in the same conversation.". Commerce being what it is, than can safely, be , attributed, to the power exercised , by the control afforded, by possibly , the sites largest advertiser, if not sponser.
To the fragile amongst us , get a transparent quality case like iphone users do.
Infra red remote, not in years, im sure , you, could quote me, all tne quality apps, one of which I use, which run accross the wifi networks, we all , already use.
The memory, guess we'll all have our own ways round it, apple owner don't keep harping on at it being a problem, neither has it ever been reported, (to my knowledge.) that every model
they sell, only sells massively if its 128gb.
So, cloud storage, usb massive cheap tiny thumbs,( Some including micro sd readers.) micro hard drives, the world's our gnote oyster, good health to all the samsung buyers and, good health to all those , who desperately, plague, every samsung flagship thread, in a desperate attempt to put off people buying samsung phones, so some other firm can get more sales.
