Note 5 looks better in term of design.

IPhone is simply ugly! Big head and big butt... Yucks!

Sent from LGE LG-D855 using GAGT

Not necessarily. I am using both but still find iPhone 6+ anesthetically better looking.
Although the Note5 isn't so bad at all.
Current using the black colour. Like the way it turns bluish tint under light.
Got bored of the gold colour after owning the s6 edge for 4 months.

Been using this since the LG G Pro days ^^

Thought the Note5 supports quick wireless charging. So need to invest in another Qi charger?

By the way how to check if phone is using Sony or Isocell? Guess most likely Isocell on most of our phones or maybe all of them.

Same here, I will most probably jump ship to LG..................

Build in battery is really a setback. I was wondering what happen if the phone hang, reset and power button cannot work ?

Now waiting for Sep and see is LG launching the G4 Pro. If not, I will most probably get the G4.

U so negative...keep thinkin of hang or boot loop
To be fair...it could b a concern...but having all buttons faulty and the phone hang...u muz b very "lucky"

The biggest issue shd b the batt life.
All could b tell after some days with it

G4 price are sliding fast...would u consider trade in price as a factor?
If so, LG also are bad.

I guess QHD just too much for any batt sub 3000mah.
I had a couple of QHD ...and batt life is the biggest issue.

The note 5 fast charging pad required Samsung certified charger head to quick charge work.

Yup. My note5 sometimes goes to sleep and unable to wake up even when I try to press buttons. Needed a hard reset.

This happened once when I was unlocking the screen

 

[StationA]

half of the time wifi, half without. Brightness on lowest with Auto on. Used power saving mode early on, but turned it off as it was slowing some of the features like screen-off memo down, and it didn't give that much extra battery. Mostly messaging and web browsing. Playing with S-pen, taking a bit of photos. Also went for a run, 30mins of tracking with endomondo with the music playing. Played a bit of Ingress too for like 15mins total (geo-location game).

In comparison... S6...

the result is close to Note4 but only 70% or less of note 2...

 

[Zaalaa]

don't need to feed the troll, he's obviously an Apple fan, look at his history of posts on this thread you'll find out.

I'm using s6.

I trade in my Note4 for the G4 and then swapped back to the Note4 again. I was once using the leather red G4. ^^

Same. Had the G4 for a week before switching back to Note 4. The G4 is a nice phone. Great standby time but once you switch on the screen, the battery drain like no tomorrow.

Same here. My note 5 hanged for a short while when I was unlocking the phone once.

 

[Vulpix]

this phone dam ugly. no one bother to give it a 2nd look everywhere.

no more business look.

now look like plastic toy phone.

You already posted your opinions on this phone a few times in this thread, we get that you don't like it. How many times you wanna post about how much you don't like it?

Ah, the classic sleep forever syndrome. It was a problem that plagued the Note 4 at launch, glad to see it return back in full force for the Note 5.
