End of day 4 of owning this incredible device. And I dropped it , naked, for the first time this morning. Scratches on the corner now :o
Finally decided to order the Verus Crystal light silver cover. Hope it arrives quick!

That's good to know. A mini review from an audiophile. :) Thanks.

I am no audiophile but i do enjoy listening music on e note 5.. Especially when it can be customised based on my hearing that can be setup via the "Adapt Sound" function.

I read that G4 has some of the worst sound performance among recent smartphones?

hello guys, firstly sorry to skaade for using your photo.. Check out this kickstarter project. I am quite worried about the screen protector issue on the note 5, in particular the haloing.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/451137703/metearmor/comments

They managed to prove the haloing effect is non-existent on their product.

Not too sure if they are a hoax on the quality but just a heads up for the fellow note 5 users out there:)
If the price is right then I won't mind. No worries on pic usage. Meant to share it with everyone angway

Careful guys, if insert S-Pen wrong way will damage the device.
Here's the video:


**** mine broke accidently fiddling around and exactly as described happened...

Any of you also same issue any quick fix or any Samsung fix for this?

Probabaly heading down to service centre for this. If they dun replace or charge for fixing I think I'm gonna throw a fit there...

There is absolutely no resistance when you put it in the other way so you won't know if anything went wrong.

Not sure if it is just me. Previously if you have multiple apps that can open a file, eg. JPG, it will list all of the apps and let you choose to use the app once or always. Now on Note 5 it just list the apps without allowing us to choose the default. I end up having to choose the app everytime. Anyone else having this problem?

Before you throw a fit there or anywhere else, read this.

Bro, any idea what is the left/right arrow icon at the top panel ah? It appears on my wife's but not on mine... and I cant find ways to turn it off also...

Zooper seems better now. Using it and no issues with battery drain. So far so good but I just have one clock widget. But that clock widget also displays contextual info where the last line changes with time of day (morning and night shows up differently):

VoLTE - Voice over LTE.

Supported on Singtel (Clearvoice) and Starhub.

Not sure if M1 has it. :)

It will always be there once you activated the service, even if you disabled VoLTE on phone, the logo will still be there.

There you go... It has been answered few pages back..

Like I have said earlier, the icon will only disappear after you have asked Telco to deactivate the service. You cannot disable VoLTE via phone settings. The icon will still be there if you only "disable" from phone settings.

VoLTE uses your 4G data. But it will not use up much data. Very very small data use as your call will not use a lot of data. You will use more data when surfing the web than when calling.

Note that VoLTE will only work if the person you are calling is also using VoLTE. Otherwise, the call will drop to 3G. For example, you are calling someone's mobile number and that person has VoLTE, then the call will be using 4G. If you are calling someone's office number and the phone is not a VoLTE-enabled phone, then your call will not use 4G but will switch to use 3G instead.

VoLTE, because it uses 4G, will have faster connection. You will dial through faster compared to non-VoLTE calls. The waiting time to hear the dial tone will be faster (almost instantaneous) and you will have better clarity over your calls.

I am not an expert at the call technology, just my experience from using VoLTE. Apology if there are any wrong information being presented.
