bhabani, 12 Nov 2015I want to write comments on gsmarena on note 5 (-ve comment... moreI'm a heavy mobile user. I have used Note 2,3,4 I loved note and nobody was able to beat it.
Recently I shifted my attention to LGG4 . I recommend to go for Lg it's not bulky easy to use phablet size screen. Great CPU great Ram 3 GB is enough the free Ram in LGG4 and note 5 is almost the same as note is using more ram. The disadvantage in note is less space no way to add more space and non-removable battery. I think you will be happy more with LGG4... Overall 8/10 to Lgg4 and 6/10 to note 5

        samsung exynos 8890 chip
        On top of the problems of Android, Samsung is also adding its own services and apps with serious, easy to exploit security flaws. Google volunteered to help clean up Samsung's latest Galaxy S6 Edge, and found 11 exploitable holes including "a substantial number of high-severity issues" within a week

          Stop trolling.

          The biggest problem with the GN5 is the lack of internal storage space. In almost every other case the GN5 beats the iphone 6.

                  As a heavy user, I like a phone with card slot and removable battery, so Note 5 isn’t my selection.

                    AnonD-100398, 12 Nov 2015U just can't use the IP 6s+ and Z5P they way u can use the ... moreYou mean less more features, less useful, and more fragile.

                    At least the competition builds on more features rather than take them out.

                      Jimin, 12 Nov 2015I live in Korea and iphones 6s and 6s plus preorder of 95,0... moreTrue that man! I live in India and we can buy the unlocked Iphones directly but they are way expensive for no good reason but for the same as u mentioned .

                      Even i am not using any case for now as i have 1 year screen replacement with my note5 from samsung as a preorder offer but after 1 year i will buy a good quality case .I also got a wireless charger in the preorder offer.
                      & I already have 3 good quality power banks to charge allmost all my devices like 4 Smartphones in my home, 2 PS4 controllers plus it also charges my Sony MDR 10 RBT headphones. but the battery back up on note5 is already better.and i mostly charge it with the wireless charger .Anyways Thanks for the information u gave abt korea.

                        MadDy here!, 12 Nov 2015Having migrating from iPhone to android to iPhone to Androi... moreU just can't use the IP 6s+ and Z5P they way u can use the NOTE5 .

                        6s+ & Z5p are the exact copy of there previous flagship line up means they still come with those huge bezels and over repeated design language.

                        Note5 is now very compact ,light weighted and very pocketable. & came with a overall new design than its previous note design line up.

                        Its also more affordable than the Ip 6s+ for the 64 gb model.

                        Z5P does not even have a 64gb model Lol.

                          TheNeighbor, 12 Nov 2015And you said it was a lie that the glass back breaks easily... moreOn that I already said that you tube is ur friend.
                          The problem is that i hate spoon feeding Lol.

                            AnonD-100398, 12 Nov 2015I have no bad ram management issue what so ever and i think... moreAnd you said it was a lie that the glass back breaks easily, according to some video. Where is that video link?

                              MadDy here!, 12 Nov 2015Having migrating from iPhone to android to iPhone to Androi... moreOwning smartphones are NOT investments. They depreciate. Apple "updates" make their old devices buggy, slower, and non-reversal in iOS.

                                MadDy here!, 12 Nov 2015Having migrating from iPhone to android to iPhone to Androi... moreI have no bad ram management issue what so ever and i think almost every android user is aware that they do not really need to keep checking ram or clearing the ram on any android smartphone ( btw do u do that on ur ip 6s+?) the android is smart enough to take care of it all by itself, but using a task switcher and removing the apps u do not need is a good practice but i expected u to b aware of this .

                                and updates on any phone does not normaly stay valid after 4 to 5 years b it apple or android. But NOTE5 wud b supported IMO for at least 4 to 5 years as it is flagship grade device.

                                Android has many advantages over ios u also know that .

                                At least u agree that the camera is just awesome on the note5 .

                                On note5 only if u need great battery life instead of performance use the power saving mode.

                                Sound quality from wired or wireless music output quality is also loud and excellent on NOTE5.

                                Note5 has wireless charging.

                                Note5 has SAMOLED screen great for battery backup and comes with customizable screen modes also has great outdoor visibility and viewing angles which is way better than the 1080p lcd on 6s+ .

                                6s+ is indeed a good device but overall it is not so price worthy compaired to NOTE5 .But i agree that its a little more robust ( just as galaxy A8) as it has all metal back cover but it does not have wireless charging and note5 makes up for that with its gorilla glass at the back but i know its not that better than having the all metal back cover but it takes normal drops easily as i already have experience .

                                  Having migrating from iPhone to android to iPhone to Android for several years, my experience will help a few to make up their mind if to go with ios or android!

                                  Had Note 5 for 2 months, flawless peformance with battery and everything. The downside was available ram! i only use basic apps like facebook, instagram, twitter and pinterest. After closing all apps and clearing everything it used to show 1.6GB available ram, and just after 30 mins again the damn thing goes back to 600mb available ram from 4GB total ram? Are they serious? Huge pile up of ram used to drain battery faster and sometimes make the phone hot.
                                  The second problem was that we as android user accept the fact that we will not be getting the updates on time, and dont even know till when our phone would be given support and updated. Apples iphone 4s shows how they can support their several years ago phone aswell, thats acheiving customers satisfaction in a big way.

                                  Now i shifted to iPhone 6s plus, knowing that i will be supported till when i would want to keep my phone. Its just a kind of reassurance for the money you throw on the things you buy. I am happy and content now, no stress whatsoever.

                                  I always saw that android is to mobiles what windows is to computers. Both arent optimised to run the hardware which is insanely increased day by day. Just look at Note 5 and Iphone 6s+ specs, and iphone mostly beats it except the camera department.

                                  I am a android and apple guy, i own both. but Sensible decision is to invest in Apple, not android. You should value the money you spend so much.

                                        Overall nice device. Battery life is decent. I get around 7_8 hours of heavy Usage. Mediam Usage 9_10 hours. Which is not bad at all but also could be better. Fast charging charges my phone from 0_100 percent in around 1 hour. Speed is fast but after 4 months starting to lag a bit. Light weight. Camera is out of this world and beats competition. No SD card slot is a huge huge disappointment for me. And last thing price for this phone could of better cheaper alot of cheaper in my books but offers no other features like other devices. Like download booster ultra power saving mode Spen and extra volume mode.....
