Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Hands-On Samsung's New Phablet
|
Droidever - Galaxy Note 5 is a latest phablet from Samsung very attractive. The phablet is a phone full of beauty. Given this phablet, you will spend some time with the terminal and can bring your own impression. We'll soon be a full review, but until then here you will find all the information about the new Notes 5 and specification, design, price and release. Then you will know the uniqueness and the toughness of the Galaxy Note 5.
The Galaxy Note 5 is basically a large and S6 Galaxy S-Pen. Samsung has brought to this terminal design in metal and glass S 2015. It has a range of aluminum border and is covered by Gorilla Glass 4 in both the back and front.
One of the most striking detail is the curvature of the back. To make the idea, it's like a Galaxy S6 Edge upside down. These rounded edges give a plus ergonomics which comes in handy in a terminal of this size, reminds us a little to the rear of the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro. The screen is completely flat, without curves.
Another important detail is that we are dealing with the terminal edges closer we saw a Samsung (maybe except for the Galaxy A8). The display occupies almost the entire front, and the edges have been greatly reduced. Samsung deserves applause in this regard.
The beauty of the terminal causes the desired "WOW" effect you need a phone of this price and range, but may have a dual purpose: to distract us from other deficiencies. The Note 5 does not bring micro-SD slot, and its cover is removable, so your battery is not removable. Just because of this many fans not renew family Note the new terminal, however, for others it is a natural evolution that focuses more on the best performance of internal memory, better battery optimization with turbo-charging and storage in the cloud.
Samsung has already received much criticism for doing the same with the Galaxy S6, but if anything is clear is that the company will invest in this new method. Their biggest competitor, the iPhone 6 does not carry any of these features. The difference perhaps is that in the case of Apple, the terminal never had. Samsung Have you taken the correct decision? Only time will tell.
The Note 5 also will be available this physical keyboard that fits and that is purchased separately, as his partner Edge +. The purest Blackberry style but may make sense given that it is a very focused terminal productivity.
The Galaxy Note 5 has a 5.7 inch screen with a resolution qHD Super AMOLED. This is 2560 x 1440 pixels and a pixel density of 518 ppi. It is not as high as the density of smaller terminals, but is sufficient to deliver stunning clarity and resolution (the iPhone is with the ridiculous density of 300 dpi).
Given that the Galaxy Note 5 has been released by the Galaxy S6 edge + (without S-Pen) having a curved screen, we assume that there will be no edge Note 5. User question is decide whether you prefer a curved screen or an S-Pen. Although good, considering that the Note will not appear in Europe, the chances be reduced enough.
Once we have the new Note 5 office will offer a complete analysis of your screen, but while in the terminal had hands and we saw that their brightness, color and saturation are the best we've ever seen. We did not expect less than a Super AMOLED from Samsung.
Special Functions
Samsung have a system of automatic expulsion, driving out the Pen when you press on it.
Doing this menu also opens Air Command. We have not had much time to test his new role but we can confirm that there are new functions and shortcuts that previously had as Action Memo, Smart Select, Screen Write and S Note, plus customization options in a new menu of circular shape.
Software
The Galaxy Note 5 brings a slightly redefined version of TouchWiz on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. It will be updated to Android M. We show all special software features in the full review.
Again we mentioned the existence of Air Command, with new software features. Brings, among other things, the famous Samsung Pay, which will pay through NFC, although this is not something new under the sun.
Performance
If we ignore the S-Pen and the absence of curved screen, the Galaxy Note brings virtually the same features as the Galaxy S6 + Edge. The Note 5 is wider, heavier and thicker, but the internal specifications are exactly alike.
The Note 5 brings the same CPU used in the Galaxy S6, the Exynos 7420 eight-core, four to 2.1 GHz to 1.5 GHz and four. The Note 5 brings, however, 4GB for better multitasking performance . It comes in two versions of internal memory: 32 GB and 64 GB.
On the other hand, there is news that will be a Galaxy Note 5 dual SIM or micro-SD, but it is not disposable. Since then, the issue of micro-SD is very important if Samsung wants to keep users Note 3 and Note 4.
Performance-wise, the Note 5 responsive as the Galaxy S6. We did not have time to see how it behaves in benchmarks or put it to the limit, but we will in the final analysis. Of course, those 4 GB of RAM promise, and in the short time we spent with the all worked perfectly.
House
Samsung is so happy with the sensor S6 and S6 Edge Galaxy that has brought her Note range. The Note 5 has a primary camera of 16 MP with optical stabilizer and a front of 5 MP.
Some perhaps will miss an improved camera, but no doubt that Note 5 photos will be just as spectacular than the Galaxy S6. Again, we will offer our opinion on camera Note 5 in the final analysis we will publish in the coming days.
Battery
The battery is another sensitive issue in Samsung smartphones. The Note 5 does not already have removable battery as it is unibody. Its battery is 3000 mAh which is, as happened with the Galaxy S6, somewhat smaller than its predecessor.
However, Samsung has included a new feature to compensate for the lack of removable battery. The Note 5 brings a turbo-charge wireless charging technology it takes 120 minutes to fully charge the truth personally do not know where the news is here, because 2 hours is no progress. With cable, Note 5 shall be charged in 90 minutes, again neither is an awesome thing, but they do think so.
As for battery life, we can not say much, since we could not try the Note extensively, but we are confident that with the arrival of Android M and adjustments to own battery of Samsung, will be similar to that of Galaxy S6.
Technical Specifications
The Galaxy Note 5 is going to create a gap between fans of Samsung, as it did the Galaxy S6. About the only thing that respects the Note family is the S-Pen, and also some ingredients betrays the spirit of this phablet from the beginning, which were so appreciated by its users: removable battery and microSD.
His point is that there is no high-end terminal with stylus on the market, and Note 5 still without a worthy competitor. Now is the time for the fans, who will decide whether non-removable battery and microSD has sacrificed the most respected family of Samsung, or if, on the contrary, has given a new and necessary direction.
Availability and Pricing
The issue of availability is the biggest fiasco we've taken with the new Note 5.
New Samsung phablet will not reach Europe or South America, for now. It seems that Mexico will receive in October. But for now, if you want a Note 5, you'll have to buy it in the US or Asia. Samsung has decided to leave the old continent without the terminal with S-Pen, although this does not mean that there is going to launch later. In the United States will go on sale on August 21. We can forget the Note, at least for a few months.
The Note 5 of 32 GB will cost US $ 899 and the 64GB will cost $ 999. Will these prices will move to Europe later?
According GSMArena the Note 5 could land in Europe earlier than expected, on 28 August. This stems from two factors have happened recently. For one web Bluetooth.org, authorizing the standard connectivity of this kind, it has listed a called terminal SM-N920F. Normally the "F" was awarded to the European terminal of Samsung, as happened with the Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy S5. Moreover, again according GSMArena, the Korean media have spoken in the last hours of Aug. 28 as departure terminal in Europe.
Although Samsung has not said that the Note 5 does not ever come to Europe, probably reserved for release later this year ahead of Christmas. Meanwhile, Samsung wants to focus its efforts on the European Galaxy S6 + Edge.
