Despite giving its 2015 flagship, the Galaxy S6, a major re-design, Samsung has continued to lose market share. The company is now hoping to win back some customers and steady its market share with the Galaxy Note 5.

The Galaxy Note 5 has a design language that is similar to the Galaxy S6, which is to say it looks beautiful and elegant. However, for the sake of design, Samsung has removed two of the key features from its flagship Note device this year: a removable battery and a microSD card slot. These two features made the phone very popular among power users and its removal might just lead many away from the series as well.

When it comes to raw horsepower though, the Galaxy Note 5 is possibly the best Android smartphone that is available in the market right now. The phablet comes with a gigantic 5.7-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display, an Exynos 7420 octa-core 64-bit chipset, 4GB LPDDR4 RAM, 32/64/128GB of storage space, and a 3,000mAh battery.
