6 months review of Note 5
Don know if its worth the price.. but Phone doing well till now.. phone lasts 21 to 24 hrs though only in power saving mode with moderate use with screen on time of 4 hrs roughly.. Fast charging is great though now all phones seem to have it.. i mainly use my phone for surfing and reading.. and phone is quite fast.. may not be as fast as apple.. but definitely fast enough to notnot cause any discomfort.. havent had any software glitches or major lagging or hanging till now..Touchwood. however i felt marshmallow update worsened th battery life by atleast 30/40 percent..
CAM is really good..
Overall its good.but mayb a bit overpriced.

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g5_vs_samsung_galaxy_... moreHehe, Don't sidetrack the argument - we're talking about the Note.5's and the S7 Edge's camera performances, which you are claiming "98%" of "trustworthy youtubers" say Note.5 is better.
Not LG G5's, which does only 30fps (not 60), and even a lower stabilization performance. Although out scored 88 for stills, it only scored 86 marks overall from DxOMark Mobile, because of its poor video recording performance of 82.
And besides, G5 has no AMOLED screen, and has a poor battery stamina of only 60H, compatriots to 85H and 98H of the Note.5 and S6 Edge respectively. I'd like to spend my money on the best performing overall device. Never on something that has compromises.

Note.5 has BLURRED RESULTS in ar... moreDude every smartphone camera has drawbacks be it s7 or note5 there is no point in just highlighting only negative points OF Note5 just to ignore the facts cause even i can write full page essays abt the s7's downgraded camera just like you but i am not doing it and you know why? cause i am not a ignorant person like you. LOL However the fact remains the same Note5 camera is better than S7 camera even with its darwbacks that you have mentioned
Go learn to troll properly first you are not doing it better .LOL..( & The fact is that s7 & s7 edge happened be to a victum of samsung racing against other OEM'S to release new phones without thorough testing.It also looses to LG G5 very badly in low light even with the bigger camera apreture there a lowlight shootout made by gsma have a look at it ti understand what i am saying instead of ignoring the fact ) so again hopefully NOTE7 does not go through the same fate.plus i guess you want the same downgraded camera of s7 in Note7 i am not understanding why do you not want something better in Note7 in terms of camera? or you are also one of the person here who is conviencing himself to buy Note7 even with all of it deal breakers .I really hope that it does not happen to Note7 however lets see what samsung does this time aroundLOL.

No, I do not agree with your "98%" assessment of the YouTube reviewers saying that the S7 Edge is a lower in performance OVERALL.
In fact, it's the other way around - I can summize only 2% (like you) say the Note.5 is better, and 98% of reviewers (DXoMark, C.Net, Verge, Brownlee, Mobile.Techreview, Pocket.Now, Techno.Buffalo, etc.) tell us that the S7 Edge has more advantage than predecessors, and even across other smartphones.
I'd be glad if the #1 ranked performing camera would be in the next GN, not the #3 ranked one of the Note.5.

Note.5 has BLURRED RESULTS in artificial and low light, even with flash. Often times, the Note.5 catches MORE of the Sun's GLARE on reflecting surfaces.
DXoMark Mobile on the S7 Edge's video stabilization:
"Video stabilization is often a weak point for many mobile devices, resulting in shaky and jittery movies, even with minor walking movement. Not so on the S7 edge, however, which boasts excellent stabilization scores of 91 in bright light and 88 in low light, ensuring smooth video capture. Some minor jitter artifacts, as well as a loss of very fine detail, are evident in low-light videos, but the S7 edge is capable of correcting minor handheld or walking motion for stable videos."
On the Note.5:
"Shooting video on the Galaxy Note V, exposures are excellent in both lighting conditions, achieving a Bright Light score of 92 (out of 100) and Low Light score of 82."
Vid stabilization is just 1% better on the Note.5, however, 6% difference in low light stabilization.
These are why Note.5 is #3, NOT #1. I'd rather go for the one that does more reliable clear photos in most situations than blurred one any day.
