Also, you clearly don't understand the RAM management of the GN4... RAM is used for quick re-opening of apps. The more apps you open the more RAM you will use. When the RAM is running low the Note 4 uses the Low Memory Killer (LMK) to free memory by closing apps from the least recently used (LRU) list.
This means that when the RAM is getting full the Note 4 is simply making the most of the 3GB RAM to keep as many apps open as possible for quick opening. It won't actually slow your phone by having a nearly full RAM as the Note 4 will automatically close apps as required.

Galaxy A8 Dual SIM version can take 128GB micro SD card, has 16/5 MP cameras, and a damn metal back. Just uploaded the only demo unit from the only store that has one.

So why can't micro SD cards be on a Note.5? They really want us carry storage like USB OTG dongles and wireless HDDs? Rely on cloud and have us pay for those services? Become renters than owners of devices we buy?
Impracticality over aesthetics that easily breaks?

To put it simply Note 5 sucks big time and can be regarded as the worst phablet made by samsung since the development of Note 3. It's better for me to wait for Google Ara's modular phone, LG G4 Pro, Xiaomi Mi5 plus or Xperia Z5 ultra than to buy fancy garbage.

UFS 2.0 incompatible with a micro SD? Then why the heck can you use an OTG dongle?

Tough choices. Have to wait until IFA first to see what they have to offer. Must have patience for the next 2 weeks. Pheww.

AnonD-389805, 22 Aug 2015Maybe you're happy to be a sheep taking whatever phone you're given but you are exactly the so... moreOf course there are some complacent persons who would not mind paying for something that actually does less. Samsung really is capable in putting in a memory slot at least. Interestingly, there's a new A8 5.9mm thick (bling-bling alert!), and takes in up to 128GB micro SD card! Yes, a micro SD! Have a look:

Sure, it has only a 1080p 5.7", Snapdragon 615 processor. It's currently $560 and even have a slightly higher battery. It even has an FM radio! Unlike the Note.5, it has a total metal back - isn't that MORE "premium" (cough).
The main point is, how come the A8 has these better less fragile construction than a more expensive flagship? Samsung easily could have added these.
You are actually having and allowing compromises with the more expensive S Pen-capable Note.5. You are getting less features for $200+ more. Has it come to the lower models are actually even better? And if we are arguing about the processors, would milliseconds differences would kill you?

Ethan, 22 Aug 2015It doesn't have an FM radio. Sounds weird? It may. But still, it's a deal-breaker for me. I'... moreIt does have an FM tuner just like every Previous Note & Galaxy S but Samsung refuses to activate the FM chip because cell providers want to force people to spend money streaming music over 4G.
