This was my first note, I fell in love instantly. It had all the apps I needed for everyday life as well as work. It was easy to use as well as adjust to your liking. I will never use another phone.

I wish though I were on a better network. - can't complain about price w/ sprint - but i think verizon better.
I have been eligible to update my note 3 - ( i bought in 2014 and can upgrade yearly) but I found out that the note 5 did not have an removable battery NOR external storage -- WHHHAATT ?! and that it is missing dual antenna (inability to talk and surf) this is why i went from being a complete IOS snob ( i have the macbook, and ipad and used to have an iPhone !)to have the ability to remove/change the battery (i keep an extra in my wallet) and the ability to upgrade the storage. I am a MUSIC fiend- 25gb of my storage is for music ALONE! ! then add pictures...... using the Note 3 - i absolutely fell in love with the SPEN - smitten ! i am fairly certain, i can not go back to an IOS device - my ipad has a coat of dust over it. I ONLY WISH - Samsung made a Mini Tablet (such as the Tab 3) WITH THE SPEN !!!!!!!!!!! I would abandoned my ipad completely - ! I love my phone - but i use it for everything... but a phone ! I would love to be able to have a slightly bigger screen but smaller than a full tablet. i hope samsung reconsiders the ability to use an external sd card and gives back the ability to change the battery !!!!!!!! and Dual antenna . until then - I will stick with my note 3 - i hope i will not have to one day add it the electronic graveyard when it is no longer useable b/c apps will no longer work (such as what has occured with iPad 1's, and soon iPad 2) there is no need to make a device slimmer - (it would be so much more fragile)
I was so pleased with the Note 2, I couldn't wait to see what the Note 3 would be like. Everything I loved about the Note was gone. So disappointed about the DOWNGRADE that I will not purchase the new products. I don't need more disappointment.
Cons: Did not meet expectations, it's a downgrade for more money.
This phone has great performance with just a few lag spikes, but that does not effect me. Also, the design is so beautiful and great to watch videos with because of the Great Amoled Screen. This phone is great and I recommend it to anyone that loves phones with big screens.
I have loved this phone since I got it. So useful i can't imagine any other flagship in my hand. I plan on upgrading to the Note 6 this year and Im anxiously awaiting launch to use my upgrade for it. Samsung has really stepped it up on design in the last year or two and I know the Note 6 shall be the best Note yet. If you can handle the extra size go for it. The battery life alone is worth it.
