Still, they aren't buying a Galaxy Note any soon. They just bought the latest iPhone just to feel they're "updated".

Why is Samsung trying to market to those 14 year old kids with garbage hip hop music all while showing using the s-pen for writing childish love notes and drawing hearts in their commercials.
No, my daughter might not know what a true efficient smartphone with a pen does. Neither does Samsung anymore apparently.

All they want is popular brand and super expensive and call it a day. Teenager simply wants to show off to their friends. When I was a teenager I wanted an expensive and popular phone too like Nokia. Your daughter will realized how wrong her choices is after she grows up. She will wonder why she choose an expensive iphone and burden her parent like that instead of choosing a high specs cheaper android(no need to buy Samsung specifically). If 4.7" display satisfy your daughter, why not.

The beauty face selfie function is just laughable - live editing to make your eyes bigger and jaw small really is important... I know all the flaws of this thing and I can only see the don't-know-don't-care crowd pouring money because of the shiny finish.
Meantime, Apple is killing it with force touch, 128GB of storage, and NOT a whole lot of change from before. iPhone is made for the masses that conforms to peer pressure and brand popularity. Shame Samsung is trying so hard to mimick it. Yes, my colleague's teenaged daughter insisted on an iPhone because she doesn't want to be the only one in her group that doesn't use an iPhone.

She said: "NO WAY! I want an IPhone!"
I couldn't convince her, even with the cool pen of the Note. You would think with all the money Samsung is blowing trying to use hip hop music and drawing hearts and love notes with the Note 5; didn't really work too well did it?
Instead of taking a successful product and trying to tailor it towards a market that doesn't want you, tailor it to YOUR market.
Still waiting on the multitasking fix. Guess it doesn't matter - they are too worried about iPhone users.

I played aound with it and the only things I like were the camera settings and S Pen.
Features that made the Note.5 terrible:
No changeable battery
No infrared remote function
No memory expansion slot
Fragile glass back
Only 32GB for MOST countries
Design flawed S Pen storage
That's why I'm keeping my Note 3. Now that I use 128GB microSD card, and waiting for my two 6400mAh extended batteries, it'll be heck of useful than this.
Who does live broadcasting? Who needs that 4-video collage? Beauty face functions? This thing sounds it's geared for those don't-care-don't-know crowd - an inheritance of iPhone users. Yeah, it's hip to be carrying around powerbanks and be hip about it.
Meantime, I can carry just one device without having to carry charger/charging pad/powerbank and USB OTGs, by just using an extended battery and my 128GB micro SD card.

Bhabani, 18 Dec 2015i wanna argue with someone about note 5. i think note 5 is the best. suits all our needs.
c... moreYou don't use unlimited LTE data.
You don't use 2-4 GB of data daily on average.
You don't do 8GB downloads that drains the battery in 4 hours with speeds of 1-2mbps.
You don't keep your data on 24/7 for notifications like email for work.
You don't use your phone to cast your lectures onto projectors and industrial LED TV screens when needed.
You don't need to control equipment/appliances via infrared.
I can do all these, without carrying power packs, and just change batteries. I can do these with not plugging to a power source while going around the city without a bag to carry for charger/charging pad/powerbank. You do not know my needs.

For starters i have 50GB of mapping data (for work and play).... that's before a lot of music, videos, tv shows, photos OS and apps. Australia only has a 32GB GN5 available so its clearly not suitable for my needs... Will stick with my GN4 and its 192GB of storage thanks...
