The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Thread

[Chevalier]

I'm at 1hr40mins screen on time with total 17.5 hrs off the charger, and currently battery is at 62%. Granted, this is with 100% WiFi so far.

Hey man, I've been on 4G this whole time.

Brightness at auto with the slider and the 50% mark

Samsung has always released some colors initially and the others at a later date..

white was always launch 1st but not this time. S6 and s6 edge was also launch with white, black and gold. The absent of white and silver kills any hope of me getting note 5 since i only buy a new model during the launch week.

Wow then that's solid battery life, given the 3000mah battery. I'll report back on my battery life once its low enough!

Yeah pleasantly surprised. I honestly was expecting worse. Only time will tell if this is just a one off thing. Hoping it's not

So that wherever I go, it doesn't suka suka log in to that forever jammed Singtel wifi and stop me from receiving my msg

kindly update us on your experience with the note 5 battery, I'm still disappointed with the reduction in battery size.

The note 5 feels like a half hearted job to me. Without microsd slot, Samsung should have include a 128gb option. Nevermind about that, but why launch with only black and gold? Where is the silver and white? Samsung is not even giving any indication when they will launch those 2 colours... Very disappointing...

Production not enough. If you look at youtubes from TW and HK, they are selling the white versions there.

My note 3 doesn't allow me to forget this useless network. Everytime walk past any such wifi, it just connect to it without my permission and then hang up my keyboard.

It a personal thing. I jist like to buy during launch week and if possible, use till the next sucessor is release.

Check out the configuration guide. Uncheck any option for auto-connection.

Inside wifi setting, press and hold on the wifi name that you want to remove and the forget button will appear

Yeah, tried, all other wifi network can forget network but not the useless Singtel wifi. Thought i upgraded to andriod 5.0 can solve this problem but ended up its still not possible

Hope note 5, can forget Singtel wifi

 

[fuzzybear]

Signed up with Singtel yesterday. Called at 1688 to request for early recontract and got approved once escalate to management.

Not bad, like the gold colour plus the fingerprint scanner is so much easier to use now.

 

[angeltst]

early recontract, meaning earlier than 1 year 9 months?? (with no penalty?)

If I choose ‘Forget Network’ or manually disconnect from Singtel WiFi, will I be able to connect again automatically?
iOS, Android, Blackberry - Phones without ‘Forget Network’ option
• On iOS 7 handsets, if you turn off ‘Auto Join’ you will not be able to automatically connect again. There is no ‘Forget Network’ option.
• On Android handsets that have preloaded WiFi SSID, you will not be able to remove/disable the SSID by choosing ‘Forget Network’. You may directly connect to your preferred network.
• On Blackberry 10 OS, if you disable the network you will need to turn on Enable Connections and then Save and Connect in order to connect again. There is no ‘Forget Network’ option.
• On Blackberry OS, you will need to save the network again in order to connect automatically. There is no ‘Forget Network’ option.

Other manually configured handsets - Phones with ‘Forget Network’ option
Other handsets that are manually configured will fail to connect once you choose ‘Forget Network’.
