TheNeighbor, 31 Oct 2015Yes, underpowered users have a hard time imagining that you... moreThat is not what a power user do. That just media and documents hoarding. Well, your reason is good enough. I acknowledge that. Note5 same price as Note 4? Is it? I think Note 4 is slightly lower. However, I won't buy a Note 4. I heard its performance is somewhat not much of an improvement from Note 3. Note 3 worth better if someone is so desperate for removable battery and sd card instead of Note5. I recommend it.

    My note 5 sm 9208 vietnam made dual sim 32gb has following problems
    (1)sim 2 is not detected and the device force me to restart
    (2)battery life is not as review.it is almost the same as iph 6 battery life and drain more than htc 816 and xiaomi redmi note
    (3)camera is not as good as s6 and s6 edge.that's just my thought.

                My phone's screen cracked top left corner, and i never ever dropped it. Dont know how it cracked without anything, seriously m clueless how did it happened. I mean i understand something would have happened or else it wont crack by itself, but i never let anybody touch my phone nor i myself dropped it. Just bad luck, in last 10 years this is the first phone that got damaged in my hand and i dont even know how : /

                  AnonD-430264, 31 Oct 2015I never read that 32GB books part, but: if it was said, it'... moreI even scan entire actual books with CamScanner that can go up to 100mb to 200mb+, like my entire library from home if I can't find an e-copy of them. I can annotate them easily without ruining or carrying them to reduce weight. I can easily cast them to a smart TV for my classes, and no need to have to connect to a PC for that.

                  I honestly have not read all the 958 books I have, but they are quite useful when I need to pull references. A paper needs to have at least 20 references to be viable.

                  Here's another thing about PDFs - they can be read for you with using apps like EZReader, and just listen while you are in commute. I've done this a couple of times to cut on time digesting a few of the PDF research papers.

                    Anonymouses, 31 Oct 201530gb books? 30gb video and musics? Sound like a lie to me. ... moreYes, underpowered users have a hard time imagining that you can do and store more stuff with current technology. 7 years ago, 16GB internal was considered the ultimate on iPods. Today, 128Gb - next year, I will not be surprised if 256GB models are out.

                    Since you asked for proof, I can oblige to the truth to stand by to what I talk about here. Upon checking, my ebooks total is about 37 GB worth. If we take a look the screenshot of my storage, you can see how much space I eat up because I have media on standby when I need it:

                    http://www.flickr.com/photos/92800985@N06/shares/29gTD4

                    No, I don't just watch video - they are there to keep me awake if I need to concetrate. Old movies and tv shows collections are there to help me concentrate while I do something else productive. Audiobooks when I travel about. PDF and e-books came to 958 books (last image)- these are architecture books and research which I need to prepare my lectures, research papers I'm required to do, and currently finishing where my Galaxy Note becomes a secondary screen for reading text and muics player while I compose my words with my Surface 2.

                    I have these file on-hand as data signals are not so good at times. This is an example of really maximizing out of an expensive device. The cost of the Note.5 is practically the same as the Note 4 last year - only fair to say which is the obvious more useful of the two. Meantime, underpowered users are going crazy with the glass back, only to put plastic protection, and have to endure using cloud storage and data expenses going up with what they considered as the most advanced device. I have a different perspective against what you consider to be the way of the future.

Sound like a lie to me. ... moreI never read that 32GB books part, but: if it was said, it's pretty much impossible.. since ebooks are in the lower MB's. I have a ton of marketing books that are well over 3000 pages that might hit 2MB if that.

                        TheNeighbor, 30 Oct 2015I'm 1.9m tall, at 75kg. I jog everyday. And it's not all vi... more30gb books? 30gb video and musics? Sound like a lie to me. Who even read that much books? When do you have time to watch videos content? I can't imagine you listen to music at all. Prove us you have so much stuff in your phone then I believe you.

                          Nickless, 31 Oct 2015Thanks guys for trying to help retrieving my S Notes from b... moreWhat a severe accident.

                          If the micro USB is also affected as well, and unless you had installed administrative apps like Cerberus to remote on to control data or Wi-Fi, there's not other solution to retrieve S Notes physically.

                          Have you activated syncing with your Samsung account before and kept it on? You should be able to somehow get back your stuff.

                            I like a phone with removable battery and card slot for heavy users.

                              Thanks guys for trying to help retrieving my S Notes from broken Note5
                              Its my fault not to describe problem briefly:
                              It was a big accident .. mobile broken, screen broken & back cover also broken & can see part of the battery .. but the mobile rings, answer calls and mic & speaker work.

                              Service said it needs new mobile & cant be repaired.

                              If im sure that the option where two note 5 phones are in contact they can synchronize will work with this broken 1 i will buy the new 1 immediately.

                              When i connect broken mobile to windows 7, 8 or 10, it says ((Unrecognized USB device))

                              So i need to open wifi or mobile data or my 1 month notes are lost while im in a big project.

                              Thanks for trying to help.

                                AnonD-434876, 30 Oct 2015I want to know the best music smartphone in the market nowa... moreIts the s6,s6edge,edge+and Note5 it even beats apple 6s and 6s plus and all the xperia's .

                                Just make sure u have the poweramp music player app .it gives lots of equalizing presets plus u can even customize those settings.

                                The music mainly depends on what headphones or what music system you r using to listen to music.

                                The headphones that came with Note5 are nice but not that great,

                                so I recenly bought the sony MDR 10 RBT over the ear headphones which supports apt-x bluetooth and wired connections as well.its a bit expensive but worth the money if you like quality music a lot.

                                For external music listening i also have 25k pmpo lg xboom cm9730 hi fi music system which is again supports bluetooth and wired connections.again this is also way expensive but worth it for music lovers.
