Just try out the phone, I think this is the best Note design so far.

The only setback is the battery and the microsd card.

Actually those who buy notes is bxos of the big screen and the stylus ba.. This note 5 is definately looks so much nicer than iPhone 6+ even though their exterior looks somehow the same lol

You got to touch the Note 5. I've never held such a slim phablet before. The glass back, that curved back... It's just awesome when holding it in the hand.

Using a Note 3 now and deciding whether to get the Note 5. How's the camera quality? Read that it's the same camera as on Galaxy S6. I found that the Note 3 camera quite poor in low light situations.

Same here, coming from a note 3. Similar cam to S6 mah, plus now finally Samsung supports RAW photos, which also means more pro settings for photo-taking. Double-press home button takes u to the cam app in a flash (pun intended). Only concern now is battery life.

Alright guys. Gonna charge my phone but before I do that, some screenshots.

FYI, the phone so far has the best battery life from my note 3 > note 4 > iPhone 6plus and now note 5.

Very please and happy.

Auto brightness with slider at 50%. Power saving mode NOT used.

On 4G all the way, no WiFi at all. The only tweaks I made were to the animation speed in developer options

Wah that's dope! Judging from your usage graph, seems like you're constantly on your phone. What did u do besides facebooking?

Thanks for sharing! May I suggest not to install any major updates to preserve this battery life haha.

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.

In term of holding. A8 is better then Note5.

Here's my battery stats. About 80% of the time on WiFi. Power saving mode NOT turned on at all. Screen time at 3.5 hours with 27% battery left. Total time off charger is more than 24 hours!

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.

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...

 

[ecneret_eel]

just for comparison with my G3..

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