Samsung Galaxy Note 5 (marketed as Samsung Galaxy Note5) is an Android phablet smartphone developed and produced by Samsung Electronics. Unveiled on 13 August 2015, it is a successor to the Galaxy Note 4 as part of the Samsung Galaxy Note series.
The Galaxy Note 5 carries over hardware and software features from the Galaxy S6, including a refreshed design with a glass backing and a spring-loaded stylus, improved camera and fingerprint scanner, built in livestreaming functionality, and additional features meant for use with the device's bundled stylus. The device was released together with the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+.
The Galaxy Note 5 received positive reviews from critics, who praised the device's upgraded build quality over prior models, along with improvements to its performance, camera, and other changes. Similarly to the S6, Samsung was criticized for making the Galaxy Note 5's battery non-removable, and removing the ability to expand its storage via microSD. It was argued that these changes were potentially alienating to power users—especially because the Galaxy Note series had historically been oriented towards this segment of the overall market.
The Galaxy Note 5 was briefly succeeded by the Samsung Galaxy Note 7, released in September 2016. However, the device was ultimately recalled and pulled from the market after repeated incidents where batteries overheated and caught on fire.
The Galaxy Note 5 adopts a similar design and construction to the Galaxy S6, featuring a unibody metal frame and glass backing, although unlike the standard S6, the back of the device is curved. It is offered in dark blue, white, gold, and silver color finishes. The storage slot for the S Pen stylus uses a spring-loaded mechanism to eject the pen.
The Galaxy Note 5 has a non-removable 3,000mAh lithium-ion battery and supports the Qi open interface standard.
