The perfect phone

After owning a note 2 I decided to try an S6 edge for an upgrade, the battery time was not what I needed so I went back to the note series. What was I thinking, why fix what isn't broken. I love my phone and it has made me a lifetime Samsung customer.
I waited 3 years to upgrade and this device was the best choice I made. I love to stream movies and TV shows so the screen size was a big plus for me. It's not too big that I can't hold it with one hand when I have to. The S Pen is super responsive. I like to drawn and it comes in handy with the drawing app that is available through the Samsung gifts. All in all I love this phone and can't wait to find out more features I haven't even discovered yet!
Great phone - except no removable battery or SD card slot

Previous Note 3 owner, now switching to Note 5. Really love the fingerprint scanner and the new S-pen software. My only worry is that I'll wish I had more storage and a replaceable battery. The speaker sounds a little funny (probably tuned more towards human voices rather than music). Generally a nice update to my previous Note 3.
I've been a Note user since the Note 2. I had my concerns about the battery and no microsd card slot, but I've been just fine. Battery lasts longer than my Note 4 did. I use different services to backup my files/photos/videos and keep my space open on the phone. The RAM never gets pegged out at 100% (I haven't played any heavy 3d games on it). The one complaint is that the usb port on it and the Note 4 don't match up because the Gear VR for Note 4 won't plug up to the Note 5. That is a pretty minor complaint. I am extremely happy with this purchase.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Phone

Overall a great device that has exceeded most of my expectations. That said, I was hoping for better battery life (it is good, not great), and several Touchwiz elements are very annoying! The physical home button and reversed back and menu buttons is backward from every other Android device and, being left-hand dominant, very frustrating. The inability to add icons to the tray nor move the app drawer icon in the tray is also frustrating. Lastly, the inclusion of KNOX is a big letdown. I have rooted every Android device I have ever owned.
Pros: Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight, great camera, performance
Cons: non-removable battery, no sd card option, knox, battery life is good not great, not left-hand friendly
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great features, display, and camera

This product has awesome features, like the dual screen so you can view two things at once, the camera is amazing, and the display is great. The only thing that I dont like about this phone is that the stylis is on the bottom of the phone so if it gets bumped it easily can fall out. Ive almost lost mine a couple times now.
