AnonD-218710, 30 Nov 2015To be precise, what's in anybodies memory, all songs videos, wallpaper, and games, what else ... moreiPods or media players are no longer significant. They're terrible as well because you need iTunes to manage content, unlike drag and drop with Android.

To be precise, what's in anybodies memory, all songs videos, wallpaper, and games, what else do anybody need only this bullsh-t which can be carried on iPod, easily. Don't cramp on, mCard allover it's above average especially price under 600$.

AnonD-100398, 30 Nov 2015Note5 is such a huge sucess even without the removeable battery and a card slot :) There is j... moreMore for the underpowered users, if that's what you really mean.
I'm out of town, and had a 7-hour bus ride... Listened, watched videos, music and a bit of eBook reading. I just swapped batteries, and am thankful the spent battery separately can be charged without having to hold the powerbank to plug to my phone.
Meantime, I have tons of entertainment in my 128GB microSD card for my long trip back. No need to carry a wireless HDD, or USB dongle.
I don't have to struggle for power, and no struggle to keep loading and unloading files.

AnonD-77443, 30 Nov 2015Thank you, you have just agreed with me, everyone has different levels of use.
At the mome... moreLOL. Any self-respecting power user who got the GN4 will waste money on this half-baked excuse of a Galaxy Note. Underpowered users are simply happy with the fragile glass back and call it "premium".
I can't believe that the A series can accommodate microSD cards. The Note.5 is really for people who aren't critical to using it as a tool, and for the vain who take selfies and tell everyone that it's the fastest mobile "rit now".

At the moment only light users are being catered for with the Note 5 only offering 32GB in a lot of countries. At a minimum there should be 64 and 128GB models available.
You only need to check the official facebook page to see how many people are not happy with only having 32GB.

As for me I'm using note 4 for a year & never used an SD card at all & still having more than 10 GB free memory..so i will not face any problem to upgrade to note 5

I really think the S series should be the fashion statement for kids and the Note series for power users with long battery life and the option of 128GB+ storage.....

Itsik, 29 Nov 2015I am betting that you don't need even 20 gb of memory. So it is just wrong feelings. I have 53GB of layered topographical maps alone on my Note 4 at the moment... Some TV shows can push 20GB... Why would I download a low resolution movie/show when I have 192GB of storage on my Note 4?
You can blindly defend Samsung but even a fan boi should be able to see that only offering 32GB of space is pathetic in today's age of HD movies and photos.

myke, 29 Nov 2015i am a note user too since galaxy note, lack of microsd card, IMO, is not really a big issue f... moreNo matter what argument you try, "fast charging" is still a useless gimmick. It's a short-term solution, accelerating/shortening the charging cycles. "under 90 minutes" to get a full charge heats up that sealed battery a lot more than normal charging. Read about it at battery university dot com.
My swapping the removable battery of my Note 3 only takes me UNDER 90 SECONDS. I can then charge it via a charger craddle, even with a powerbank. My Note practically stays TRULY wireless. Just the other day, I ordered a two extended batteries of 6400mAh capacities in order not to even change batteries at all during my whole day of heavy use. These are the advantages of a removable battery.
Even the Note 4 is more favorable than the Note.5 with its sealed battery. It even has your favorite "fast charging". Flawless? From my colleague who got this half-baked thing, she reports she gets some once-a-week hanging for no apparent reason, and does some hanging when she does multi-windows tasking. Her 26Gb (32GB version only available here) of user space is nearing its fill. She has to carry around an OTG connector to connect her flash drive to transfer or have more files. Far cry from the Note 3 she had lost, as she had a 32GB microSD card extra.
You like the glass back? I think it's terrible that you have to buy a heavy case just to protect it.
