Great PC for the Palm of My Hand
on October 18, 2015
Posted by: Parisolus
Being the first smartphone I have owned, I have been experiencing a bit of a learning curve, but I have been greatly enjoying this little PC that fits in my hand. I went with the Samsung Note5 because I wanted the ability of using the stylus for notes and interacting with the phone. I suspect it will take a few more months of use (I've had it about a month) to begin utilizing it to something closer to its capacities.
OK, the downside; its price it pretty high. Also, it's a bit large, but I can handle it well enough and being my first smartphone, I have nothing to compare it to ('cause a flip phone is no comparison). But it can take a bit to get comfortable with and to find a place for. Yet being large means it has a nice sized screen in which to see and work, so even the downside has its benefits.
I like the many adjustments that can be made to adapt the phone to my needs and my life. I appreciate the thought that Samsung has put into the tech that is human-centric. "Do Not Disturb" is a feature that lets the always on tech give we analog humans a needed break.
The peppy processor makes quick work of most everything. Browsing is quite responsive and I have enjoyed having access to my electronic library everywhere I go. It's fun to be able to be in contact with family and friends as I choose on my time, on my terms. Access to info on the go and the wide-angle camera are great. OCR with note taking functions are good, but need some improvement.
The way I use it, the Note5 carries enough charge for 2 days most of the time. When I need to charge it, it charges quickly, too. I do wish it had the ability to have additional storage via a MicroSD card like the Note4 and the IR blaster, too. Bring them back, Samsung.
All in all, a great piece of tech and a fine phone, which is, after all its primary purpose, even if it's also a PC that fits in my hand.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, fast processing
Cons: lacks expandible memory, no ir blaster
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 does not disappointed. I love how they incorporated a slightly larger screen yet slim design while allowing for one handed ease of use all into one super sleek design. The new push feature of redesign s-pen is a huge plus. I lost an s-pen in the previous version of the note when it came loose after being dropped. I absolutely love this phone.
I started with a Note 2 so this was a great upgrade.

I love the phone so far. I have owned it for about 3 weeks. This phone has lived up to all the reviews that I read on it.
The only bad part of the phone is the price, but all phones are over priced in my opinion.
Pros: s pen
Cons: price
I would recommend this to a friend!

This phone is great. It runs fast, it has a beautiful screen, and a great camera. Some of The Samsung apps that you can download onto this phone are really cool, and Practically any app you can get on an Iphone, you can get on this phone, and then some. The stylus is cool and I do use it to take short notes, but it doesn't really have much more use than that. The most notable (pun intended) feature of this phone is the size, its a borderline tablet. The biggest downside of this phone is the price. I dont know if it is worth the large price, but if you have the funds its a great choice.
Pros: Realistic color, Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight, camera, size (could be a con)
Cons: price
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've only had this phone for 2 weeks. So far I like it. The camera is great. There are some apps that I would delete permanently if I could. Nice size screen.
