TheNeighbor, 30 Dec 2015Your argument about repetitive watching is moot. I currently have 8 full HD movies on my micro... moreIt is clear that your large memory storage capacity is for show up only. To brag to your friends. Grow up man. You think they are interested? Duh!

[deleted post]LOL. Did I just hit a nerve? I've already mentioned miracasting and NearbyDevices functions. That means I use bigger screens when I can. I even use a Google Chromecast to a projector to mirror my phones screen for lectures.
I happen to have a 1080p TV. I mentioned that before. 4k movies go like 8 to 15 GB each. A 32 GB Note.5 (which is the widely sold in most countries Worldwide) would only give you some 25 GB - just means you can only have at at maximum 2 4k movies. Pretty meaningless if you have a 4k TV and yet stream only 1070p movies. Meantime, I can theoretically hold some 30 to 60 full HD movies with my 128 GB microSD combined with my 32 GB internal memory.
Gotcha.

Common sense will tell you there is no need to keep large files in your phone that you will only use very seldom or only once like those rotting HD movies in the files that you need only to watch once or twice.

Very frustrating when it comes to choosing my new phone.
Samsung Note 5 is good with great camera, OIS and great apps. But no card slot!!! and no 128GB option!!! If it have either a card slot or 128GB option I will get it!
Sony Z5 premium is good with card slot and good camera. But no OIS!!! and NOT AMOLED screen?!?! If it have OIS I will get it!!!
Lumia 950 XL with superb camera! card slot! and at least have the apps I need. But buggy OS!!! Not available in Singapore!!!!!
What the heck is going on with all these companies!!???
Think I will just wait. Really frustrating!!!

[deleted post]Your argument about repetitive watching is moot. I currently have 8 full HD movies on my microSD. The others are music, audio books, e-books, and TV series. I'm sure they're more than 64 GB, which in your logic is "abnormal". The point is I have 146 GB of combined memory space on my device to do more things with than your 57 GB from your device. If I had a 200 GB microSD card, I'd have 215+ GB. Or I can even miracast or share it to other devices.
You still see it unthinkable that anyone actually uses that much? It's because you're pretty underpowered user - 64 GB is pretty much what YOU need.
Even the whole concept of a 128/200 GB microSD card being transferable to another device like to a tablet or laptop seems "abnormal"? No, right? Well, I can do that. You can't, and apparently don't need to. A microSD has no moving parts and therefore less likely be corrupted from shocks. I never carry around the usual HDD if I can help it.
Still love you, man.

2, 30 Dec 2015Samsung what the f when is marsmallow coming for note5It is coming at the same time with S7. Because it introduce the new Touchwiz with it. If they released it now then everyone would know what to expect from S7 already. Only a few lucky Samsung device like S6 edge and Note 4 received Marshmallow update accidently. You can find those online yourself.

First of all, the edge on the s6 is useless. I hardly used it because I even forgot it was there. Secondly, the phone started overheating the same week i got it, and it would drain the battery, and sometimes even power off. Thirdly,the battery would drain easily either way, I had to charge it a couple of times a day. Fourthly, it would randomly freeze. Lastly, the size was too small for me. However,the camera is golden. Best camera I had had so far until the Note 5. People loved whenever I took pictures because of how clear and perfect it would be. The speakers were great and the screen is really clear.The gorilla glass on both sides give it a very sleek and sophisticated look. All in all, I would give it a 5 out of 10. Now the Note 5 is too good to be true. It feels like an s6 but a better version. So far no overheating, the battery life is awesome and the camera is superb. I really have no complaints about it and the small extra features that come with the stylus are a plus. Also if you are a vlogger then this is the phone for you because you get to stream your YouTube videos directly from the phone. I Definitely recommend The Note 5 over the s6 edge.

Tcool, 30 Dec 2015You mean to say you keep on watching those movies over and over again? That's weird. One time ... moreAmazing logic you have... It's not only movies - tv shows, audio books, MUSIC and e-books. Seasons of TV series. What? I'm not allowed to have favorites I could rewatch? I can't listen audio books or read books again? Or have VOLUMES (like 50GB) of music to choose from? You mean you've only been watching EVERY movie only ONCE?
Get real.

That's weird. One time watching is enough, no need to store all of those movies in the phone and that is common sense.

Tcool, 30 Dec 2015So you admitted that there is storage cloud. End of discussion!LOL. Not for my media. It'll take FOREVER to wait for steaming to happen. I have 1080p movies that I'd like to watch. Service speeds slow down, and 2-4GB per movie will stutter with only 10-30gbps.
And I can be anywhere with low signal reception and enjoy my media. This is common sense 101.
