I'm replacing my S5 tomorrow and have narrowed it down to the Note 5 or S7. The ability to write notes is appealing to me.
Any first hand experience with either? |

Many think the stylus is a novelty and most stop using it after a month or two.
I think the Note is the best phone I have ever owned/used. I still have my Note 3 and don't see myself upgrading anytime soon. It has been flawless, and the stylus features do come in handy quite often. |

Note 4 or wait til 6 This. Before I pulled the trigger on the Note 3 I researched a bit. While the 4 would have been my pick, I could justify the extra coin over the 3 for what I needed. The 5 has a few drawbacks. If I remember correctly no usb3, no removable battery. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Have note 3. Held off on note 5 due to non removable memory. Note 6 they going back to removable memory (S7 has now also). Large screen phones not that big of a deal when they are as thin as they have become.
If you can wait till July then get Note 6. If you must replace now get S7 |

LG G5. Replaceable battery, cartridge style add ons. And they keep android up to date like a boss. Samsung sucks, their hardware is unreliable, they are slow to update, and their bloatware is absurd. I'd get an iPhone before another Samsung. Does the G5 have expandable memory? |

My Note3 has been a great phone and I'm reluctant to change it but the G5 looks awesome. |

I've used an Iphone since 07', a few months ago I switched to a Note 5, and I like it. You get use to the size very fast, and it makes the screen so much more useful. I actually don't hate going online on it. I also like the stylus and use it consistently.
The quick note application is nice for jotting down info on the fly. |

It had a factory defect that causes a boot loop and there was a warranty recall. About a week after I'd got the phone, I had dropped it from hip height while in a full case that covered the screen. It still developed a small, thin crack in the screen protector, about 3/4 of an inch long, near the corner. I hadn't bothered to fix it because it was so small. When I sent the phone in for the boot loop warranty fix, they REFUSED to fix the warranty issue unless and until I paid them $160 to replace the screen (which is about twice what it costs around here to get it fixed if I were so inclined.) I took it up the ladder as far as I could with no joy. So I got the useless piece of shit phone back still not working and used my daughter's old iPhone 5C until the Galaxy S7 came out. I'll never buy another LG anything. |
