Don't buy, as N6 is definitely with sd card slot. Just wait 6months, or carry on with what you have. But mind you, be prepared with 100X10 Dollar Bills.

    AnonD-430264, 06 Dec 2015I get you on some points but, why does your colleague complain about memory expansion when it ... moreYup, most non-tech people will likely assume that it would have the same, if not BETTER stuff FEATURES compared to previous models. 32GB version is the only model sold where I live, although it comes with dual SIM - still utterly useless with a silly limited storage space.

        Can't complain about something you didn't research.

          Confirming your complaints about the hanging, especially multi-windows through colleague's use. About once a week hanging. She ain't happy finding out that it does not have memory expansion and had to endure carrying an OTG cable with her USB flash drive. She thought it was better than the Note 3 she lost. She's regretting spending so much for something that does less.

              For those who think Android M is going to give better memory management, read up on it. It's only going to give "you" better management of the RAM in your apps.

              I keep hearing how it's going to be the savior of TouchWizs' horrible management.

                How funny that everything is stuck on horizontal right now. Not certain areas; everything! Stemmed from only flipping the screen. Yay for almost $1,000.

                      haha. Someone rightly said here that if one is looking for a just opinion before buying a phone, one must not read users opinions like being offered here. Its hilarious, its stupid how people talk about a phone. If a phone doesn't have a radio, people would say damn it..all i wanted was a radio. If there's no user replaceable memory, people would say i would have bought this phone only if it had a user replaceable memory. People are just short of abusing each other just for a phone. lol. Actually, most of the people just share their unsought-for opinions just for the sake of it. It doesn't matter whether they own the device, like it or dislike it. They would try to dissemble no one knows phones better than them. Or they would try to prove that they have the best phone on earth. Come on guys. Its just a phone. And No phone is perfect. And guys, admit this fact that companies wont come at doorstep of each of you to ask which feature their next flagship should have...

This is such a nic... moreStill, I have yet to see they coming up with tripple that battery as an option. No glass back, of course, water-resistant - like a beefed up active version. I'd go without removable battery if I am sure that I do not have to plug in from heavy usage. Yes, It'll be thick like 15mm - I want that battery, no carrying the silly powerbank only to plug it in 2-4 hours during the day.

                          10% increase as you suggest isn't so encouraging. What's the point of having a thin phone, only to keep carrying a power pack, or having to keep plugging it in during your waking hours? I change my battery in about 12 hours and change to fresh ones, but now I'm just waiting for two orders of double capacity (6400mAh) battery for the Note 3 and not to have to waste some under 90 seconds to change batteries in the day. I like to keep my data on all the time, and i can use up Gbs of unlimited data. Just getting my money's worth of actually downloading stuff on the go.

                            I want to buy a note. I'm a bit confused of which phone to buy. I only have money to buy a note 4. Is that note 5's cam is much better than note 4.( I know it's better but is it identically much better)
                            Should I buy a note 4 or wait untill note 5's price drop to that much. I want to know about the cam only. Please answer.

Slimmer and narrower device with hollow S pen slot like Note5, how the heck you going to put a 3300mah battery in that thing? Use your brain first.

                                I am almost tempted to buy the N5 but the limited storage is preventing me. This is such a nice device. Hope Samsung will restore the the uSD slot and increase the battery size with N6. The A7(2016) which is smaller and thinner has a 3,300mah battery.
                                N5/6 153.2 x 76.1 x 7.6 mm vs 151.5 x 74.1 x 7.3 mm, N5/6_volume=1.0812*A7_2016_vol
                                Therefore, I expect Samsung to put 3,300mah*1.0812=3568mah on Note6, it's ok if it's non-removable as long as it's bigger capacity and with uSD. Thanks
