AnonD-106491, 29 Aug 2015If Samsung wants to target the iPhone type users by reversing their function over form approac... moreTotally agree with you.
Samsung has many variants in the market. Why then touch the Note series? Samy, did you receive any complains from us your power users about the Note? No...And not just that when you buy a Samsung Note then the chance that you will stick with Note is a lot, or should I say it was? Keep the Note specification as before, and come out with other variant and call it for example 'Galaxy Note Glass' for those iPhone users you want to catch. I do not even understand the strategy to drop the 128 GB storage as well! Not to mention that the 64GB is not available in the market at the moment, and in 32GB storage option 15GB is already gone (used for various system files and apps), so you are sitting with not more that 17GB storage!!!
My next phone will be either LG 4 Pro or Hawaii mate 7S....

If you look at price, one plus two is better than note 5 though both have almost same specification and both are awesome.

This Note 5 is just 70% complete, Don't worry with all the bashing Samsung is getting it will come out clean with a fully packed Note 6 with all the enhanced features. I thought the Note 5 will be a striking upgrade of the note 2,3, and 4 it's just physical differences, screen resolution and camera pixels. A flagship phone with no Fm radio, memory card slot, sealed battery, limited storage of 64 gig.. My opinion it's backward it's not a proper upgrade from the previous generation.

Unfortunately, a good design, but it is not practical for the final exhibition and easily broken (The big problem that they are still basic features which external memory and battery power and less remote)
Do you think Samsung to become Apple as a phone or what !!! (Underwhelming hopes)
But now more willing to Note 4 / and I hope from Samsung to issue a second copy and modify them and add shortcomings

The Note 5 is not want I want in a smartphone. I fell in love with the Note series from the first and have been a loyal user through the 4 series, which I currently use. Now, however, I will be looking for a different product line.
First of all, I don't care anything about the stylus; I never use it (I mean never). I also don't care if a phone has a tft or led display; either is more than enough and the screen resolution really isn't a big deal for me either. The screen size IS. I actually prefer the Note 3 over the 4 as far as the screen goes. I was hoping for something slightly larger out of the 5, although the screen size is okay. I couldn't care less what the case looks like; my phones are always in a case anyway and I wouldn't have it any other way.
I do not want to have to plug in a USB drive to save off my files and the lack of a microusb is a big deal for me. The Note 3 and 4 both last about 5 hours before going dead for me (yes, I am on my phone A LOT) and not having a removable battery is a big problem. Thus can, of course, be partially remedied by carrying external batteries, but it is a pain to use the phone when they are plugged in and its actually hard to find ones that have enough capacity to charge the Note series.
Not having an IR blaster is a big step backwards as well. This isn't incredibly important for me, but it is a feature I like.
What Samsung did is redesign a grear phone to be more like the iPhone plus, which is not what made this series popular.
Case appearance = I don't care.
Fingerprint Reader = Useless
No removable battery = Huge problem
No Micro USB = Big Problem
No IR blaster = Annoying
Screen = OK, but not exciting.

Went to the biggest Reliance digital store in Bangalore India and the sales guy said that there were very few advance bookings for the S6+ edge
Though the note 5 not yet launched hardly any customers are asking about it.
finally a senior samsung software engineering manager from their R&D centre mentioned to me that he was not happy by the decisions taken by samis headquarters in South Korea on removeing some of the fearures.
Question will sami learn .... or are they going ti crash like nokia
