A lot of the Note5's DNA comes from the Galaxy S6 range released earlier this year. Some of these changes might come off as familiar, but compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy Note 4 , the Note5 represents a complete overhaul.

Excellent 5.7-inch Super-AMOLED display; Extended functionality with improved S-Pen stylus; Made from glass and aluminium; Improved ergonomics with curved back; Competitive 16MP and 5MP cameras; Fast wireless charging and support for Cat9 LTE

No support for expandable microSD memory; Only offered as a 32GB variant

This phone advances on the Note 4 in only the most minimalist way while removing the option to expand the memory and offering a paltry 32 gig internal memory in most cases. What possessed Samsung to remove the SD card slot is totally beyond me.

A well made phone with specifications that force competition into introspection.
