I agree this is turning up to be a really average phone worth only 300 USD because
no sd card
no ip rating
poor battery life
back breaks easily
s pen insertion issues
Non removable batter
only 32 gb
old chip
no ir blaster
fm radio ??
No stereo speakers
Sami staring at an over priced failure???
Shin responsible ..... should he stay ???
I dont care without sd card or non removable battery bec. I always change my phone every 2 yrs, and s pen problem? its for stupid people do that.. All i can say is a very nice phone..
The S Pen on the Note5 is uniformly shaped throughout, unlike the styli on the previous Note devices. This means it goes in easily either way without much resistance. The problem is, if you accidentally do insert it the wrong way, the stylus goes most of the way in and then gets badly stuck in the phone's holding mechanism, making it difficult to pull out without the help of tools. If you do manage to pull it out, the stylus detection mechanism on the phone - which tells it when the stylus is inserted or removed - stops working permanently, as Android Police discovered on their review unit.
Overall it's a great phone. It just needs a removable battery and micro SD card slot.
yemko, 26 Aug 2015No mhl/hdmi connectivity? wtf! 🙉 Something I love my Note 4 for 💃Yeah I use my old Galaxy S3 connected to my upstairs TV using MHL as a media streamer/Games console etc. And when I get my next phone I'll be doing the same with my Galaxy S5 so I always get years of extra use from my phones, but without MHL the phones are worthless and just fit for the trash after a few years with all the other limitations on the Note 5.
I don't note 5 because ther is no external memory card....but in s5 & s6 it is given...and their phone memory is 32 & 64....sorry...thanks...
No laser autofocus camera.
Note edge is way cool than note five, except few hardware upgrades in note5. still prefer Note edge even after using it for 9 months.

So sad that you live in a forest or a cave. We humans live in normal places where you have power outlets everywhere. We can afford to charge our devices everyday and literally everywhere.
