The Note 5 features a 5.7 inch display, faster charging capabilities, an upgraded S Pen, and improved productivity and creativity features. In addition, both devices will come with similar megapixel lens of 16 MP for the rear and 5 MP for the front-facing camera, which is also capable of recording 4K quality videos (3,840 x 2,160). However at the time of launch, Samsung only mentioned that they would arrive in 32GB or 64GB options, and given that neither phone sports a microSD slot, some users might be disappointed. Members of the media were invited to take the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ and the Galaxy Note 5 for a spin.

The S Pen is said to be more precise and sensitive than ever and you can now even write with it while the screen is off. So why isn’t it launching the Galaxy Note 5 in England? However, it is hard to ignore the fact that the size of the battery is smaller compared to the Galaxy Note 4.
It features App Edge, allowing users to launch five of their favourite apps from the curved edges of the screen.
Andy Griffiths, Samsung president in the UK and Ireland, said: “At Samsung, we’re committed to offering our customers a best-in-class technology experience, providing the ultimate on-the-go immersive multimedia viewing experience“.

If you missed it, which would be hard to do unless you stayed offline completely, Samsung announced the Galaxy S6 Edge+ and the Galaxy Note 5 yesterday, both showing off some improvements over previous model devices. Both devices hit stores on August 21 and are available for pre-order starting Thursday.
