haha. Someone rightly said here that if one is looking for a just opinion before buying a phone, one must not read users opinions like being offered here. Its hilarious, its stupid how people talk about a phone. If a phone doesn't have a radio, people would say damn it..all i wanted was a radio. If there's no user replaceable memory, people would say i would have bought this phone only if it had a user replaceable memory. People are just short of abusing each other just for a phone. lol. Actually, most of the people just share their unsought-for opinions just for the sake of it. It doesn't matter whether they own the device, like it or dislike it. They would try to dissemble no one knows phones better than them. Or they would try to prove that they have the best phone on earth. Come on guys. Its just a phone. And No phone is perfect. And guys, admit this fact that companies wont come at doorstep of each of you to ask which feature their next flagship should have...

No glass back, of course, water-resistant - like a beefed up active version. I'd go without removable battery if I am sure that I do not have to plug in from heavy usage. Yes, It'll be thick like 15mm - I want that battery, no carrying the silly powerbank only to plug it in 2-4 hours during the day.
10% increase as you suggest isn't so encouraging. What's the point of having a thin phone, only to keep carrying a power pack, or having to keep plugging it in during your waking hours? I change my battery in about 12 hours and change to fresh ones, but now I'm just waiting for two orders of double capacity (6400mAh) battery for the Note 3 and not to have to waste some under 90 seconds to change batteries in the day. I like to keep my data on all the time, and i can use up Gbs of unlimited data. Just getting my money's worth of actually downloading stuff on the go.

I want to buy a note. I'm a bit confused of which phone to buy. I only have money to buy a note 4. Is that note 5's cam is much better than note 4.( I know it's better but is it identically much better)
Should I buy a note 4 or wait untill note 5's price drop to that much. I want to know about the cam only. Please answer.

Slimmer and narrower device with hollow S pen slot like Note5, how the heck you going to put a 3300mah battery in that thing? Use your brain first.

I am almost tempted to buy the N5 but the limited storage is preventing me. This is such a nice device. Hope Samsung will restore the the uSD slot and increase the battery size with N6. The A7(2016) which is smaller and thinner has a 3,300mah battery.
N5/6 153.2 x 76.1 x 7.6 mm vs 151.5 x 74.1 x 7.3 mm, N5/6_volume=1.0812*A7_2016_vol
Therefore, I expect Samsung to put 3,300mah*1.0812=3568mah on Note6, it's ok if it's non-removable as long as it's bigger capacity and with uSD. Thanks

Honestly, Note3 have better call quality and speakers. Samsung had been neglecting 'phone' department since ever. The focus these day is only on the 'smart' features. No one make calls that much anymore anyway unless you are the conservative type. Thats why they are planning to improve the speaker quality in the Galaxy S7 next year because many had complaint about it.

Wait a couple more days, and see a frequency of a hang once a week, as what's my colleague has been complaining. 32 GB is the only version my region is having - that's 26 GB or so of storage.

I recently purchased the Galaxy Note 5, and I am going to be honest... Being a previous owner of both the Note 3 and Note 4, this new device have yet to show any signs of lag, poor battery life and and performance issues. While I still have great respect for the previous versions, I must admit that the Note 5 is by far the best phone Samsung have ever made in this series. With all the negative comments about removable battery, lack of Micro SD card etc. Its a compromise I am willing to make. This phone is perfect in every single aspect from design to flawless performance, and I intent to keep it as my daily driver for a very long time.

mrlapa, 04 Dec 2015Owned all previous models of the note. LOVE IT.
WILL NOT G... moreIf the new Galaxy Note is perceived as lower than previous models, there's something wrong, right there.
Heavy users with 64 or 128 GB microSD card with previous Galaxy Notes will not settle for the pitiful 32 GB version being sold in MOST countries.
64 GB version is like just adding only a 32 GB of microSD card on top of the 32 GB internal memory for another $150. What did Samsung thought of them to do with their 128 GB microSD card? Utter silliness.
Another missed market is removable battery system, where they could have sold OEM DOUBLE or even TRIPLE extended battery instead of "portable power packs". It's going to thicken the body, but you'll not charge for DAYS for sure, instead of carrying a powerbank all the time.
