      AnonD-22824, 01 Nov 2015Note 5 did not need removable battery & a micro sd card slot to be successful.Would have been more useful, and versatile.

          Everything looks superb...size, resolution, s-pen functionality. BUT not having a card slot is unforgivable in my opinion. Companies will charge you >$100 for going from 32 to 64Gb internal storage when a micro-SD of 128 Gb costs $50 (that´s a ratio of 8X of Gb/USD). Too much for me and enough for making me go with some other less pricey option.

                  Best phone ever made, bar none. Apple needs to buy one of these for each engineer, and make them focus on it, while building the iPhone 7 plus. Pay Samsungs price, and copy the s-pen Apple.

Like the heart rate monitor, S Health, S Calender Samsung Pay and pair it with smartwatch too. Use bluetooth headset for musics. Using apps that is not used by average users like proffessional photo editing apps, camera apps, video apps. Tinkering with the camera apps manually for maximise usage. Using stylus to draw creative media for presentation and signing pdf files. Having multiple charger everywhere including house and office also considered as power user. Constantly connected and posting into multiple social media apps like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and WeChat. Heavy gaming with high quality setting. Dowloading HD games. Always using GPS whenever driving with LTE connectivity. Push everything to the cloud once internal storage is full. That is how I defined a power user. Hoarding data and media? That is just average users.

                                I can consume 6GB daily when I need to, use over 10 hours screen on time daily, always have my bluetooth earpieces connected for all my phone calls and audio, use LTE hotspot about a third of the time, and I don't carry a powerbank.

                                Of course brand new Note 4 now is like 40% less in price. Yeah, like 80 GB of HDD space for PCs in 2003 was a standard. Now we can have 6GB per HDD if you need to. Someone here pointed out he downloads 15GB per movie. Yeah, 32GB is like a limit we can live by.

That just media and documents hoarding. Well, your reason is good enough. I acknowledge that. Note5 same price as Note 4? Is it? I think Note 4 is slightly lower. However, I won't buy a Note 4. I heard its performance is somewhat not much of an improvement from Note 3. Note 3 worth better if someone is so desperate for removable battery and sd card instead of Note5. I recommend it.

                                      (2)battery life is not as review.it is almost the same as iph 6 battery life and drain more than htc 816 and xiaomi redmi note
