and I have yet to scratch the screen with the protector taken off

The screen does not scratch easily even without a screen protector

I don't think enough people realize how hard this Note 5 screen is to scratch

FAST PHONE!Fast chargingS-pen, screen off notes is amazingS-penLatest OSSamsung pay works!!Cons

* Better screen, real HD - could be good if you have young sharp eyes, but for most cases not critical, only consumes more battery

The screen is also very clear.

The screen looks great

Then all of a sudden today my screen goes fuzzy like TV static and the phone is now completely unusable I have never had an issue with

Beautiful screen, seems sharper than the Note 4 in my opinion, even though the specs are the same

Next, and this has been well documented by professional reviews to include Displaymate's own personal validation, this screen is the best screen of any phone I have ever seen.

Screen is just brighter for reading the web and doing gaming.4

I had a Zagg tempered glass screen protector on it for 5 months until I bought the GEAR-VR and decided it would be a good idea to take it off to use it (not knowing that the Oculus app ran internally so it did not matter if the glass was covered with a good screen protector.

Came with a broken stylus... screen is overly sensitive and there is nothing I can do in the operating system

The big screen and camera are nice

I loved the big screen

They both have a ultra-bright mode for direct sunlight but this mode is only accessible screen brightness is set to auto.

All that screen to be put in a case is just crazy to me

Awesome screen quality and decent battery life too.

Great screen, very surprised by the top quality refurbished product (5 tiny dimples on bottom right corner.

Best screen for movie watching and reading

Second one I've owned after dropping the first one and cracking the screen...even in a heavy duty Otter Box.

FINALLY Samsung gives you almost unlimited panel/screens

Little bigger than the S7 edge and the Note 7 and the other thing I like about the Note 5 is it's flat screen (almost) instead of curved edge like Note 7, I couldn't use my S-Pen as easy as the flat screen on Note 5.

Screen is awesome and big, but the phone itself is not too large

Screen went bad over night while I slept

It is thin, the screen is beautiful, it still looks like a very modern phone, the camera is incredible, and unlike previous generations of Samsung phones I've had, this thing is still running very smoothly.

Great pictures, great screen, great phone

Then all of a sudden today my screen goes fuzzy like TV static and the phone is now completely unusable I have never had an issue with

It blows the doors off the S5 in every performance measure and packs a nice large screen in a relatively small package

I prefer 6" screens, but this works for now on Verizon.

Watching HD videos on this phone are amazing, I purchased a movie to watch on my flight back to Boston the person next to me commented to me how awesome the screen looked and couldn’t believe how fair phones have come over the last few years and even took the time point out the screen to his wife.

I guess finer screen and much more energy-hungry OS are responsible, otherwise, it is hard to explain why it is so bad

Best screen resolution, 8 cores, fast as lightening!

I put a lot of lotion on and I never could keep my screens clean, now I just take these off, wash with soap and water, dry, and put back on.

I have a Galaxy S8, but was looking for a work phone the works well, with decent specs, and a big screen.

Nice size screen and the phone isn't too big to hold for either

Screen cracked very easily (while in case) from very slight pressure while trying to edit a s note.

The phone itself sports an amazing bezel to body ratio with an amazing AMOLED screen.

I have mixed emotions about this device, while it is easy on the eyes, it's just not practical for daily use unless you spend $30-50 on a high end case, with good screen protector

Huge screen and stylus input are terrific.

I could perfectly detail through eloquent fervor the ample screen's lush vibrancy, or use teh bestest of internet

Very fast and great screen size

A screen resolution so crisp and clear the colors literally jump out at you

Then the screen cracked

The S pen on the Note 5 is easier to release but it has a tendency to pop itself out, since the release mechanism is activated when you push

the only problems i have had are that the phone can be glitchy and slow at times, the battery life dosnt last all day unless you dont use it often, and for that there are no replacement batteries like with the 4. also with the 5 ive had issues losing my s pen often as its a little lose in its slot

2 of S-Pen options like Magnify and the GIF creator is not available directly from the Air Command but there is an app you can use to create GIF.I like the round edge on the back

The S Pen broke in half when I went to pull it out of Note 5 phone within 48 hours of delivery, so I was forced to buy a new one from Samsung
