Am pondering to really get the Note 4, but with just a not so much with the improvements - like I did last year last year. So with the Note.5, the Note.5 is even less functional, more fragile, less features, and really flawed with that S Pen design - hey, someone else will put it in the wrong way.

        i am really disappointed for the Note 5, i have waited it very intensively. i am a Note fan and have Note 3. didn't get Note 4 because i couldn't find much difference and Note 3 is a very good phone. i crashed with Note 5 with nothing new to provide but less capabilities.

        - No SD Card.
        - No IR port - i was using it a lot.
        - Problem in inserting the Styles Pen
        - No removable battery - i don't care much about it but it helps to restart the phone when it hangs.

        can anyone use it for sometimes gave us a feedback on its performance.

Note 5 for the better performance but I will tweak the external in my own way. Hate the glass. I guesd we need to wait for Note5 Active. A couple days till IFA. Not that long of a wait anyway. Nexus 6 is fine but kind of lower spec with same price as Note 5. The only advantage is the fast update by Google. One of the first to receive Android Marshmallow.

                    Really not a remarkable change and also a disappointment because no expansion card for photos and videos beside the cloud storage I love to have my own on my sd card!

Most smartphone had passed the 3000mah battery mark (except budget phone) so there is no reason to remove them unless truly necessary. I like it better that way. During the era of removable battery when I dropped my phone the back cover along with the battery always came off. I hate when that happened. I like it sealed better. The idea itself is completely acceptable. Except for glass phone. If I buy this Note5 I will definitely buy a casing for it. Or asked for a custom aluminum back cover to be attached at the back.

                                  Retail Update ... went to Sangeeta ( a big retail phone store in India). S6 + Not doing well.

                                  Hardly any queries.

                                  Said the Note 5 was being delayed as sami did not want a clash ...... however only 2 people asked about the note 5 the entire day and I was there at 9.30 Pm just before closing.

                                  Huston do we have a problem??

                                      This phone popularity is going down. Motorola Moto G3 the best budget phone with waterproof will take over as the most loved.
