That removable battery & No Sd card slot statement is over-repeated by you.
Being a lecturer of university doesn't mean you need to write a super long thesis in here. Nobody read this. Even your student. They probably do.zed off during your ultra bo.ring class.

Fixed battery is still accetable in note5 as it provided a more compact and ergonomic design, but no microSD slot is so unacceptable, some here suggest to buy 64GB, that is 100SGD more than the 32GB model, Samsung learn from Sony instead of following Apple, Sony kept the micro SD so u can buy a 32GB Z5 and put a 64GB micro SD for less than 50SGD.

Not only is it expensive and limited sales, thereby giving that illusion of being some "premium" exclusive device - lack of memory expansion and swappable battery option turns this expensive device LESS capable than lower or midrange devices? There's something wrong right there.
Sure, UFS 2.0 is more than 3 times faster than eMMC 5.0, however there's little perceivable snappiness and the fact that some of us have been using 128GB expanded memory cards with past Galaxy Notes. 128GB micro SD card is about $75. Samsung could have easily at least have a 128GB version but would have driven up the price way past affordability, and would have cost $1200.
This Note.5 is already considered a flop by many of us heavy Galaxy Note users. Even my Note 8, or the latest Tab A with S Pen is more capable, and they don't come with the S Pen being stuck if you put them in the other way.

People complaining about lack of SD card slot and unremovable battery of note 5 please grow up. Just look at the battery of this beast and have you actually used it, u won't need to replace the battery and the gigantous internal storage would not require further expansion

In relation to stock android, i purchased a nexus 10 a few years ago and was really disappointed with the pure android OS... there were so many features and options that were missing compared with my then Note 3.
Bloatware doesn't worry me on high end devices, i either hide the app or stick it in a junk folder and there is no impact on my Note 4. I ha te the touchwizz launcher so use go launcher instead.

The loss of micro SD support and the removable battery weakens the Galaxy Note 5 offering compared to other manufacturers. It also weakens the phablet to lay year's Galaxy Note 4. If your older handset is perceived as a better handset than the latest model, then something is wrong."

Anonymous, 16 Sep 2015have you hear of tampered glass?S6 Active is meant for "non-city" use... Why didn't it come with a memory expansion? It's considered as high-end as the S6, or Note.5.
I'd like the latest a new device with the latest most fastest processing, but with all the bells and whistles. Reasoning that this thing is only for city dwellers just doesn't add up.

Just a simple carbon fibre skin on the back is enough as protection. Its is very durable. Made by dBrand. You lose the glossy glass but get a nice grip with the skin which also retain the curved shape.

Its not like Samsung only sell Note5 alone. You make the purchases, your choice. City dwellers buy Note5 if they have fast internet service. The rest of us can go by with simple mid range smartphone that come with sd slot.
