Coming to the specifications, the Note 5 has the same Exynos 7 octa-core processor as the Galaxy S6, with 4GB of RAM. It houses a 16MP rear camera with OIS, along with a 5MP selfie camera. Like last year’s Note 4, the Galaxy Note 5 also has a 5.7-inch QHD S-AMOLED display, but the materials used to build the phone have changed. Samsung has given the phone a glass back, like the Galaxy S6, which is curved at the rear. 

The Galaxy Note 5 runs on Android v5.1.1 layered with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI. A 3000mAh non-removable battery powers the entire package. The phone also supports both wireless and PMA quick charge technologies. Samsung says that the Galaxy Note 5 will charge as fast as the Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge. It is, of course, 4G-compliant.

Samsung has also made changes to the S-Pen, allowing users to add favourite apps to use the S-Pen with. In addition, you can now use the S-Pen to draw on the display, even when it is turned off, which is handy if you need to take a note ASAP (no pun intended).
