    AnonD-430264, 14 Mar 2016I'm not really interested in a removable battery as I'm fin... moreThe major reason why I want a removable is power utilitarian and efficiency. I can cary just one pocketable device with the ability of double or triple the stock, without powerbank, and no stopping for an outlet.

    I'm surprised why manufacturers and customers would actually want thinner devices with smaller sealed batteries, when functional, and LTE demands are increasing.

    Why inherit the power charging problems of iOS users? Main point is giving buyers the choice to swap batteries is something. Eliminating it for a fragile glass-backed finish for irrational "fast wireless charging" that actually contribute to battery degradation is short term thinking.

      Tcool, 14 Mar 2016So why do you aim for 4000mAh only? Why not aim for 10000m... moreGee you say some silly things tcool.
      Maybe because it is a good compromise between battery life and phone weight / thickness.
      I wouldn't mind a battery over 4000 mAh but that simply wont happen with the current technology.

          AnonD-430264, 14 Mar 2016There's only 24 hours in a day, so why would you need anoth... moreAs if you have nothing to do for the whole day but to operate your phone.
          Are you still working in the day and do you still sleep at night?

          Working 8 hours a day and sleeping 8 hours at night, you will not have enough time for heavy use of phone. Unless you will use the remaining time of your day for the phone only and take for granted bonding with your family and friends. No more watching TV series, movies and shows on the big screen. No more time for sports and fitness.

            TN, 14 Mar 2016LG5 - there's hope for removable battery for future Samsung... moreI'm not really interested in a removable battery as I'm fine with what I have. But, Samsung isn't in competition with LG (worldwide), they want to be Apple. Yes, I know they might be in competition with LG in Korea, but - that's a niche market.

              TN, 14 Mar 2016Good question. How about a screen shot of Note 3 light use reaching 24 hours?
              How about using the microphone on top of S7 as IR blaster?
              LOL!

If you get 24 hour normal usage on the Note 5, pretty sure with your exceptional battery that you'd get a full days worth with heavy usage.

                      The phone is plenty fast, so even with the updated processor in the LG - how much faster can it be? Why move on with another brand/phone if yours is already the best of the best?

                      Just curious

                              Tcool, 14 Mar 2016Don't worry, sooner I will get an LG G5 dual SIM for heavy use.So you'll get a phone that has more power to play some online videos and do basic tasks?

                              The Note 5 has plenty of power to do all of that, but you claim "regular use" all the time. It's plenty powerful enough to go through heavy use if you plan on using it for what it was intended to do.

                              Sure, the battery isn't capable of hardcore usage without charging through the day and TouchWiz has issues delegating the multitasking - it's still good enough to be a companion to the laptop if you can't bring it along.

                              For all the raves you claim with your Note 5 (if you even own one), why bother getting a LG G5? That phone has everything TheNeighbor has been griping about all along that the Note 5 is missing. So basically you're saying he's right?

                                    PS the GN3 battery life is fine, if anyone cant get through a day of moderate use it is because the battery is approaching 3 years old and is degraded.

                                        Tcool, 14 Mar 2016Funny but LG already have 4000mAh battery in their midrange... more.....and the Gionee Marathon M5 has a 6020 mAh battery with a 5.5" screen.... i'm not sure what any of that has to do with how much Samsung will increase the GN5 battery by?

                                        Currently its 3000 mAh on the GN5. History and the S7 indicates it will be around 3500 mAh on the GN6.... hopefully it is closer to 4000 mAh.

                                        SAMSUNG, the SD card is back.... now give the GN6 truly premium battery life of 100 hours + on the GSMarena test.
