Samsung Galaxy Note 5

[RochaZA]

Has everyone sold their Note 5 or just really happy with it? This forum had gone dead quiet.

Think it is because the phone just works without issues i am very happy with mine.

Just want marshmallow now...

Ha ha ha. I actually had a week of weakness and sold my Black Note 5 for an iPhone 6s.... It lasted a whole 6 days and I bought a Note again. Got a Silver one this time

Upgrade about a month ago from note 3. Longest i have had a Droid without rooting and dont see a reason to do so yet. Just mis my sdcard. Running out of space often.

It really would've been nice to have the 64gb version but I bought an OTG incase I ever need more space. So far I'm managing. Only thing I've done is install the BlackBerry keyboard from the PRIV. What an awesome keyboard. Have completely stopped using swift key and flexy now.

Never been one for 3rd party keyboards. Have 2 otg usb and cloud storage. Also asked around for the 64gb one but seems like we dont get it on SA.

Just very happy with it in my case.
Even getting a full day battery life on it, listen to Google play music at work all day and still have 30-40% battery when I get home at night

All I'm waiting on is Marshmallow, I don't get why the Note 4 got it in December when the Note5 was said to be getting it.

Even the S6 has a beta program where you can sign up for testing. In my opinion the Note 5 update is kept back as we either getting 6.0.1 or its because the note isnt even in all major countries available.

Because the Note 4 is awesome.

Anyone using wireless charger with note 5?

 

[RochaZA]

I was using one with my previous Note 5. It was a hit and miss. I had the normal s6 wireless charger and apparently it has issues with the note 5. Trying to find a Samsung fast wireless charger now to test of its better or not.

Still hit and miss it seems, especially if your battery is very low. Chance of charging is slim i

Where did you get the silver 1 from? I thought its not available locally. Jealous

 

[RochaZA]

Vodacom They weren't supposed to bring it in but seems like they are.

I am using an original samsung fast wireless charger and the choetech fast wireless charger on a note 5 and edge + with no issues.

Got my note 5 in Silver recently. Loving it so far. I prefer this colour over the gold and black versions. Does anyone know where I can get the plastic screen protectors? I hate the tempered glass ones. They add thickness which I do not like.

I prefer the normal plastic ones as you can barely notice they are there. I am in dbn

hi,
Don't get too carried away with the colours.!
Attached, tear down of back of a Note5,
showing clear glass back, with a colour "film" ( blue in this case, but can be gold, silver etc on inside of glass.
Good luck

Still wish I could get the silver though
