For those who got 32GB is it sufficient? Still deciding whether to get 32 or 64 one.

i say it really depends on your usage...

i survived 2 years on a 8GB IP3GS, then next 3 years on a 16GB XperiaZ, and the most recent half year on a 16GB Zenfone6... used a MicroSD card to store 1GB worth of songs, while all data & apps are always in the android phones' storage...

all still have abt 2-3 GB of space left... :s13:

but for power/heavy users 32GB definitely not enough, and make sense to pay $100 more for double storage capacity...

for my case i see it as $100 saved since i dun use a lot of storage.. for now at least... haha...

by the way, perhaps the storage capacity may affect your phone's value should u decide to sell it, so choose wisely... ;)

noob question ->

the tempered glass screen protector mentioned so many times in this thread, as in, really a sheet of glass pasted over the phone screen??? or is it a "product name" for thicker film of screen protector?

i not updated on accessories, cos i used to diy my SPs... :s13:

Could it be due to screen protector? I ever tried a cheap fully covered SP (claimed to be glass, but actually feels like plastic) on my Note4 previously.

Visually was horrible under sunlight. After removing that SP, it was so much better.

Not sure about Note5 tho'.

Just sharing my past experience.

How you all do it ah? This is with minimal gaming.
Even at 100% the estimated battery usage time is around 15hours.
Will probably reset my phone tonight.
