It's a world of virtual reality.

Although there is a launcher for the phone gallery.

    How does it feel to be near a big dinosaur looking at you, or to see deep under water creatures, or to sail in the middle of the sea with the dolphins, or be on the moon, or travel places without leaving your room? Or play the games like you are really the character moving in the virtual reality? Nice one, love it!

          AnonD-100398, 04 Jan 2016how does vr headset on note5 work over wifi ,nfc or usb connection? There is a slot for the phone on the headset in front, you put the phone on it with the phone micro USB port plugged in to the VR USB and that's it.

          There are pre-installed virtual reality files but you can download more from the Oculus Store.

          You can also open your phone files like photos and videos but they will not be in a 360 degrees view, they will be like in an 80" (more or less) screen view.

          Wow it is really one of a kind innovation.

          I feel sorry for the owners of the primitive phones, they will not enjoy it.

                      After hearing (boasting) a lot about this phablet I chose one and made the first mistake.
                      Same samsung Problem, lagging / slower. Uploaded 6 pics of lower resolution, phone started to cry...
                      HTC has better working situation than this one.
                      Note 5 .....Total Waste of hard earned money. Better to go either with iphone or HTC.

No matter what type of work you do, don't forget about the entrepreneurs out there that work for themselves. Phones at supposed to appeal to a wide variety of the market, not only the majority.

                          It's the niche guys like me (which is a market in itself) that can create 100's of thousands of additional sales, "if" these companies it's weren't only focused on status quo. It only takes a bit more lines of coding, an addition of hardware that would far out weight the costs and gain profit if done that way.

                          My beef isn't that there's no SD Card slot, removable battery. My beef is that Samsung from a marketing standpoint is marketing to what's cool and "in."

                          That's why my phone has so many issues with multitasking. I've missed so many calls, texts, had my screen stuck in horizontal mode (had to restart), it takes away from my productivity. That's why I got this phone to begin with.

                          Now before you say it's just me, it's not. Tons of complaints in forums. Also like I've said before my fiancé got the same phone. Now hers is going the same route.

                          The all I see is commercials of hip-hop prancing around drawing dumb pictures from Samsung (North America) where it seems they forgot about the Note market.

                          That's what I'm saying. If you don't see my point it's cool. But it hurts me as a consumer using a product that's not intended for what it's always been intended for.

I am not paid to do my work while I am outside the office unless it is paid overtime, hence no way I would do my work while on the road. No need to store work files in the phone if it should be done in the workstation, not on the road, not in home or wherever. Time management to finish the job in office is the key to success.

No more GB of reference files being read on anyone's phone. Might as well NOT have a COPY at all on my device because I should have only one set stored in an HDD at home so they're all safe. /S

                                Things I do onot the road are picture/video related. That correlates with my work. I then take that back to my workstation to finish editing since no way this phone can do what my computer can do.

                                That's all.

                                Has nothing to do with cloud or whatever. Don't get offended I'm trying to be logical.

What I mean, once your phone is stolen with your important files in your SD card in it, you cannot use them anymore and they are gone forever.
                                  Don't tell me you got backed up cause it will be the same as saving them in cloud or HDD, so if that is the case, no need to save them in phone. Keep them safe in your cloud or HDD or USB memory stick.

                                    Meantime, I have e-books, audio files that are so not secret that fill up my microSD card. I would think the smarter user would have his files automatically uploaded to cloud, and not totally depend on keeping them on one device.

                                      When I had an SD Card, pretty easy... lock all files with a password that are job related.

                                      There are so many ways to protect your files out there. Hate to jab at you but, do you even have a career or are you some retail worker?

                                      Sorry in advance if I offended you. Kind of :)

No need to store important files in the phone as the phone may get stolen and all the important files with it. No matter how much you encrypt the files, once the phone was stolen, they are gone forever. Unless the one who steal the phone will return your 128 GB expansion memory card which is far from reality.
