Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Review

By Roydon Cerejo (Oct 8, 2015)
  • Good
  • Pleasing aesthetics
  • Solid performance
  • Good battery life
  • Bad
  • No expandable storage
  • No IR blaster
  • S Pen mechanism prone to damage

The Galaxy Note 5 is the final piece of the puzzle in Samsung's flagship smartphone line-up. The company announced it back in August, along with the Galaxy S6 Edge+ (Review | Pictures), and it is now available for purchase in India. So, what's changed in the Note 5? Is it a significant enough upgrade to jump ship from your Galaxy Note 4 (Review)? Let's find out.

Look and Feel
Samsung has kicked it up a notch in the aesthetics department as the Galaxy Note 5 borrows many design cues from its stylus-free siblings. The phone looks premium, and is on par with the HTCs and Apples of the world. Samsung uses 7000-series aluminium and Corning Gorilla Glass 4 for the construction, which lends the Note 5 a sturdy, yet attractive feel. Unlike the Galaxy S6 Edge+, whose screen curves around the sides, the Note 5 has a more subtle curved back. This leaves you with sides wide enough to grip comfortably so there's less chance of it slipping from your hand. It's also easier to reach the power and volume buttons.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Summary

The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is an iterative update to last year’s flagship. The build and finish has improved and feels more durable. The internal processor is lot more powerful too and can handle any app you throw at it. Battery life is also good despite it having a slightly smaller battery than the Galaxy Note 4. The S Pen stylus comes with improved software features, which is always welcomed. Finally, the camera and multimedia performance is up to the mark as well. You do lose out on a few things like expandable storage and the IR blaster but all things considered, it’s great option for those looking to explore their creative side.
