Samsung Galaxy Note5 vs Galaxy Note 4 vs OnePlus 2: specs comparison
After months of leaks, rumors, and speculation, Samsung's most advanced and feature-rich phone to date, the Galaxy Note5, just arrived with a bang! The latest addition to the Galaxy Note phablet line of devices continues the tradition and is yet another feature- and specs-rich powerhouse with an S Pen stylus on board. All of this is paired with Samsung's new design language, which debuted with the Galaxy S6 and the S6 edge.
From the looks of it, the Galaxy Note5 might be another successful chapter in Sammy's phablet history, but is it a worthy improvement over last year's Galaxy Note 4? The omission of a few key features and the slight downgrade in some of the specs are still something that needs to be considered by the willing adopters, as the new glass and metal design of the device takes its toll.
