Samsung Officially Unviels Galaxy Note 5 And S6 Edge+ by Avatar(m): 6:01pm On Aug 13, 2015
Samsung has officially announced the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 edge+, two phablets that will handle the role of the company’s late 2015 flagships in different regions. The Galaxy Note 5 is the more important device here, as the Galaxy S6 edge+ is simply a blown-up version of the Galaxy S6 edge. Both devices share similar specs for the most part, with the Note 5′s claim to fame being the S Pen stylus and the S6 edge+ boasting a dual-edge display. The two smartphones follow Samsung’s new design philosophy that combines glass and metal for a beautiful and premium look and feel, and the Note 5 also introduces a new design element that should help in handling. Those curves on the front of the S6 edge+? The Note 5 has similar curves on the back side that make it feel solid in the hand and prevent it from slipping out too easily. The Super AMOLED displays on both devices measure 5.7-inches in size and have a resolution of 2560×1440 pixels, and the processing power is provided by the Exynos 7420 CPU.

The Exynos 7420 is clocked at 2.1GHz for the Cortex-A57 cores and 1.5GHz for the Cortex-A53 cores, and users now get 4GB of RAM for their multitasking needs. Imaging is handled by a 16-megapixel rear camera with f1.9 aperture and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, a setup that is carried over from the Galaxy S6 lineup. Storage options are 32 and 64GB; a 128GB model is missing, but we’re guessing that’s not a bad thing as 128GB models can be rather costly and aren’t usually manufactured in high quantity. On the connectivity front, you get support for Cat 9/6 LTE (based on region), along with Bluetooth 4.2, NFC, and a microUSB 2.0 port. The battery is a 3,000 mAh unit on both phones; yep, it’s worrying that the batteries aren’t too big, but Samsung says that in addition to quick charging through a USB cable, the phones also charge quickly on a wireless charging pad, in 120 minutes to be precise. The dimensions of the Note 5 come in at 153.2×6.1×7.6 mm with a weight of 171 grams, while the Edge+ is 154.4×75.8×9.153 mm and weights 153 grams. Finally , the galaxy note 5 and the s6 edge+ will cost $839.99 for the 32GB model and $914.99 for the 64GB model respectively.

This sounds like music to my ears!!!! FAST WIRELESS CHARGING on both devices, 5.7 inch screens on both devices, the clickable eject feature of the S Pen, super crisp display.....Was streaming the live event with my collegues at the office today and they were like; shocked.

And somebody can actually buy a plot of land in some cities with money for each of these 2 phones. However, it's their money and they can do with it whatever they wish.

Early release of note 5 shows dat sammy is scared of american giants,apple and microsoft...,note 5 is no longer a phablet to beat(esp with d fact dat it lack SD support and presence of non-removabl battery.).i just hope it can cope with upcoming iphone 6s with force torch;and microsoft revolutionary lumia 950xl cöntinuum(a phone dat turns any monitor to computer) with surface pen(a hardware galaxy note series monopolise)

Which phablet has ever edged the NOTE SERIES? Sammy isn't scared of iPhone 6s, you should learn how to talk like a techie. Everybody knows Apple has an OS advantage, you can only use iPhone if u wanna use iOS. But there are gazillions of Android OEMs, the naked truth is is iPhone was on Android it won't rake those sales or if iOS was opened to other OEMs.

I'm sorry but all these things you mentioned are mediocre.

Mention one innovative thing here. Just one
Instead you get:

1) 32/64gb phone with no expansion
2) Reduced battery capacity to 3000mAh that's non-removable
3) Same camera, display and same processor as S6 just taller
4) No Europe market for Note 5

The only good thing here is the increased RAM
Do you know what Samsung just did? Made Note 4 users very much happy with their phone. The only significant upgrade is the RAM after 12 months

They should rename these phones to S6 Goliath and S6 edge Goliath

It's official, Apple reigns supreme this year

You are the one who is naive. I know pretty well Note 5 was launched quite earlier but these companies watch one another cos they are competitors. Didn't Steve Jobs disregard a big screen phone? Didn't Apple bumped up iPhone 6 series screen? Didn't Apple dismissed OLED, ain't iPhone 7 gonna be debuted with OLED.

Relax dude

1) The chipset 7420 doesn't support memory card cos of the inbuilt UFS 2.0 which is blazingly fast. If you need more memory, get the 64 GB and use cloud or UTG
2) The battery capacity is reduced but i can bet it that it will have better battery life than Note 4. Note 4 only had 20 mAh more than Note 3 but it killed Note 3 battery wise. The chipset would the job here too.
3) Yes same everything but doesn't necessarily mean it would turn out to be same thing. Apple used 8MP camera for all their phones since iphone 3GS but are the cameras the same?
4) Why wouldn't Sammy launch their flagship in Europe yet launch their mid rangers. You could have said, Europe launch date is delayed

Yes, they could make note 4 users happy cos of the exclusion of battery and sd card but this topic has been discussed times without number

Smh Some people don't just read.
The note series is not a compact phone designed for business class. It denotes power users, so why use the same chipset on this phone?

2) The battery capacity is reduced but i can bet it that it will have better battery life than Note 4. Note 4 only had 20 mAh more than Note 3 but it killed Note 3 battery wise. The chipset would the job here too.

Lol. Do you know the battery stats of Note 4? And Note 5 will beat it? That's not even my point. Power users leave the S series for the Note series cos they desire the removable battery option even with the "amazing" battery life

3) Yes same everything but doesn't necessarily mean it would turn out to be same thing. Apple used 8MP camera for all their phones since iphone 3GS but are the cameras the same?

Did you stream the event or read the extensive specs. It's the same camera, sensor, f/1.9 aperture. NOTHING DIFFERENT!!!

4) Why wouldn't Sammy launch their flagship in Europe yet launch their mid rangers. You could have said, Europe launch date is delayed

And they're going to Africa markets before Europe? Lemme guess after Iphone release, they'd get back to their senses. Their sales are plummeting. All these are doing more harm than good for the company

Suggest a better chipset than Exynos 7420

Removable battery is a plus but when your phone last you 2 days, what more do you need? Lets wait for the real life usage and confirm

It has the same camera doesn't mean it will have the same output.

Lets wait for the camera pictures then we know. Samsung can't be dumb to put in the same thing both phones. There would be difference, it could be internal tho


And they're going to Africa markets before Europe? Lemme guess after Iphone release, they'd get back to their senses. Their sales are plummeting. All these are doing more harm than good for the company

They know better than us. Africa before Europe is a dumb move but am yet to confirm this so no comment for now

Lol. U are really novice about these things. There's a board for this USB thingy and Apple is part of the board, they had their inputs in the design. How did apple make it popular and where in my post did it say apple is the inventor?

One plus didnt add NFC to one plus two but it was in one plus one, why didn't you call that a downgrade? Android play would debut soon and it will use NFC for payments. It means one plus two wldnt do mobile payment but one plus one would . What would u say to that?
