      A 6.0" screen is 74.7mm x 132.3mm.

      I think there is scope to reduce the bezels further, especially height wise. This will obviously take smart software to stop accidental touches but can be done.

      That said, 5.7" screens are pretty sweet.

            AnonD-183089, 14 Dec 2015Galaxy A9 comes with 4000 mAh battery and 6" screen! I think note 6 must be a monster :DMaking it 6" will even make it unsalable to the majority of Note users. It'll never fit top shirt pockets - defeating it's purpose. Might as well carry an 8". That's why Samsung made the a Note series almost to the dimensions of a passport for obvious reasons.

This is the version that I got from Market. I checked this is the Australian unlocked & regional unlock version too. My CSC code is XSP. Plus a fellow user using Singtel version got update in states.

                      I've been using the Google Photo app for 4-5 days now and must say.... ITS AWESOME.

                      - Clean easy to use stable app for video and photo cloud and phone storage that looks great.
                      - Unlimited cloud space for high quality pics (full size photos limited to 15GB)
                      - Amazing face, object and place recognition for easy storage and searching.
                      - Automatic creation for collages, story books, panoramas etc
                      - simple photo editing
                      - NOT TIED TO SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS :-)
                      - Easy to share photos and folders
                      - Can delete old photos from phone, still on cloud. Deleted cloud items go to trash for 60 days.

                      The only downside i have is the initial upload is pretty slow but it's worth the wait.

                      If your struggling for space on a GN5 i'd highly recommend it over anything by apple, dropbox, sugarsync, microsoft etc.

                                  ViPERS14, 13 Dec 2015Dear TheNeighbor, Dont you ever get tired of arguing over something which isnt ever related... moreDear ViPERS14,

                                  I'm an owner of Galaxy Notes 1,II,3 and 8. I am a fan of the Galaxy Note series. I love it because of the Wacom difitizer pen and the versatility of the series. Note 8 - not so much as the battery is fixed and it's like giving me half of the 7 hours it used to give me. Something I forsee with the Note.5 as well.

                                  You find it outstanding, while I find the Note.5 very poor with only 32GB being available in most countries. Yes, you don't toss your phone around - it's that fool who bumps your phone, or the @$sh0Le who tried the to put the S Pen back in the silo backwards - I'm sure it will not happen to you. I'm sure you don't mind carrying a powerbank, or the fact that you need to plug the device 2-4 hours before you reach home daily if you use LTE as crazy like me. With my past Galaxy Notes, all is needed is a battery change. And yes, I use 128GB microSD card that gives me storage of 120GB for media and files I need - I guess you don't.

                                  Note.5 is pretty is fragile, limited in storage, design flawed, less in features - I guess you don't mind these and paid for something that does and is lesser than previous Galaxy Notes.

                                      did you insert the s pen in the wrong direction???
                                      if yes, what are you mentally challenged???
                                      i have been using a note since note 2 i never had a urge to do something so stupid!!!
                                      and if no, you have my back you should get a free replacement of that stupid sensor. because note 5 have a issue of the sensor getting damaged easily .that's one of the reason i am sticking to note 4

                                        I am just wondering the reason that Note 5 S Note is worse. I had a Note 2 for 3 years and I loved it and especially the S Note. I could take pictures and add them to my note and record memos into the notes, but the Note 5 I can't do any of that. I'm not happy about that. What was the purpose of the change???
