Only Gold colour is available in 64 gb . I got mine from Samsung Store, Infiniti 2, Malad (West), but i guess its mostly available now. Haven't checked, the stores were giving away good discounts, so may be you can try the stores.
[Galaxy Note5 General] my969:

[Galaxy Note5 General] r_c111:
Not at all. I got mine for 56455/-

Can anyone tell me the phone bought from Dubai is regional locked or not?
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
New nexus phones launched but note 5 still leads in terms of design

Would be great to have a vanilla marshmallow rom for Note 5 to try out but cannot loose pen functionality

So Samsung should work hard to get us marshmallow update asap
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
sammy ? work hard for updates ??

beers brother ??
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Their history is bad I know but thay should change bow it's high time
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
with every device we hope this thing but naah ...nothing changes
[Galaxy Note5 General] r_c111:
The worst thing is when they don't support their latest flagships for a long time. This is a big problem with Samsung. It needs to work on this.
[Galaxy Note5 General] bluheart:
As long as they give us only stable builds unlike Sony who throws faulty builds initially
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
Even stable builds have a time period throwin 2 updates in 8 months isnt worthy for such big company

Yea bro like you guys are enjoying note 5... note 4 is far behind...but soon s6 users will feel like standing at the end of the line
[Galaxy Note5 General] r_c111:
I guess most smartphone manufacturers do this
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
unless you have an apple even though they are i**** yet the update policy follows no matter its 4s or 6s plus
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Don't forget that Apple build their own hardware and software hence in Google world it's like Nexus devices

Thats why nexus devices gets the updates first
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
yet it dsnt solves the thing i said 4s to 6plus....device will get it till hard ware supports it..sammy devices after a year are deleted from there main records i guess

even after that too what would you say F varient got update 1 month ago 5.1.1 and G users are just like

[Galaxy Note5 General] Sharp-Razr:
After much deliberation on losing the ext SD card & removable battery, I went to a Samsung dealer close to my home and checked the Note 5 (Gold, 32 GB), it was quite nice. Told the dealer to get a 64GB and a S View cover for me which may come later this week.

I don't wish to rain on anybody's parade, but based on my experiences with the Note range of devices starting from the Note 1 (in 2011) through the Note 4, I confess to being tired of Samsung's attitude towards its customers and, at the same time, have become a bit partial to the Nexus range of products due to the support and updates from Google. The long wait for major OS updates from Samsung doesn't help matters either.

With the introduction of the Nexus 6P at an expected price of about 40K, this handset has attracted my attention just as all Nexus devices do. Except for the stylus on the Note series I simply cannot discern a clear advantage of buying a Samsung device any more. Plus there's the cost advantage. Even the iPhones are beginning to tug at my heartstrings again. I don't mind the 6 plus or 6s plus, my last iPhone was a 4s in 2011-12 which I used in parallel with a Motorola Razr (with ICS) :)

Yes, so there's a chance I may be cancelling the booking and moving on from Samsung at least till such time Sammy introduces a more compelling device.
[Galaxy Note5 General] WizeGuyDezignz:
Not to sound rude, but I highly doubt you are raining on anyone's parade. Frankly I don't think people care which phone you choose. If people are happy with the Note 5, your choice to get a Nexus isn't going to change their mind imo.
[Galaxy Note5 General] amsnair:
Nexus 6P cannot compete with N5 in these categories. ..

1. Design

2. Camera

3. Hardware

4. Spen

5. Display

Even though it is having latest software 6P will never beat Note 5 in speed and most importantly battery life.

So for all those above I am ready to spend another 15k. ..no issues at all
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
Similar point of view... nexus devices / i**** can be good for just updates but when it comes to a roaring hardware beast i am pretty sure sammy is the Burj Khalifa in comparison to these local stores... and for me sammy has an addictive feeling we feel so hard to move to any other device may be impossible

---------- Post added at 11:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 AM ----------

I appreciate your thoughts bro but i have quite a few iphone 6 n plus in my family and sorry to say that this company dsnt make product as close as they keep yellin about there eco system... have you tried ios 9 ?? Or latest ios versions ?? Bro my cousins iphones is gonna get replaced 3rd time today in 2 months... well i dont like to spend my money on such crap... and nexus device wasnt of any comparision for me.. get a stable cm12 and our note roars again...yes going for a note 5 is a good decision...but at the end its your money ...you have every right to spend it where ever you like :)
[Galaxy Note5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Errr....let me tell you I am not in the habit of buying phones to do performance tests against other models. I put my phones to far better use. :) Granted the Note 5 may be superior let's wait for the tests, though I am not interested in the outcome. But this is not about superiority of one model over the other I have been in 2 thoughts because of the card/battery and overall ownership experience with Samsung devices since 2011.

I am sharing my thoughts mate...and not trying to or even remotely interested in changing anybody's mind. Each one buys whatever suits his usage patterns.
[Galaxy Note5 General] :
Very Well Said Aditya :good:
[Galaxy Note5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Agreed and thanks for the inputs on your family's experience with the iPhone. My brother uses an iPhone 5 (uses a Mac Book Pro too) and he has no complaints so far. Let's see how things go. I have 3 options i.e. Note 5, Nexus 6P or one of the iPhone models. Hey, on the other hand I may not upgrade at all this year :))
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
thanks bro , i know its hard for you too to move away from sammy... :D

i dont say all iphones brother but yes most hangs , lags and been creating issue ... mac book air my sis has and yes i agree no issues with that at all..haha i agree to the last part if your happy then no need to upgrade i guess next year would be a much better option/reason to upgrade :highfive:
[Galaxy Note5 General] Sharp-Razr:
LOL! :)

Hey bro, thanks for the balanced responses..appreciated. These are the kinds of discussions I like to have. :) Anyways, I'll be back on this thread should I go in for a Note 5.. Otherwise it's bye to you folks. I'll be on the Note 4 India thread and Nexus 6 India thread till the next upgrade.

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note5 General] ruchirtrehan:
We both on similar boats [emoji14] i thought I'll never be with sammy but i ended up getting a Note 5 xD Tho i went back to my Note 4 due to CM n i feel i might sell of the 5, this is the most confusing year in smartphones, changing minds constantly as touchwiz isn't a thing of mine n don't wana deal with it, and CM is a no go here... I might either end up with OP2 or iPhone 6s. On a good note it's great to see so many peeps getting the 5 since i was last here! ;)
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
being a hardcore flashaholic myself till date I think it's time (for me) to stop getting bothered about os updates . The device is working beautiful out-of the box and everything is nice so far. for once if I think from a regular consumer point of view i end up asking myself why do I need a os upgrade that fast if it's not going to do any justice to my current user experience? . time and time again we have learnt that note series is not a developers paradise. so for our nerdyness (atleast for me) it's better to buy a second device for staying up to date with Google releases and enjoy my note 5 without any worries. Apart from 50 to 100 users here nobody cares or worries about updates lol. I have seen many using note 4 with kit kat without any issues.

having said all these we also know that how cunning is Samsung when it comes to updates. like someone pointed out 910f getting 5.1 and 910g users waiting (yes there will be delay in publishing region specific updates ) cannot be justified at any cost.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Er. Aditya:
when we buy something expensive we expect/ or its expected to work that way..... i agree 50/100 users care for upgrades...but i am sure only 5/10 can live without it and if thats the scenario then i guess there are many other brands that are fast enough like asus zen phone , but they never recieve any update... whats the use of sticking to a single os for whole time and it might not be possible for everyone to buy 2 3 phones for every other thing they do... i am not against your view bro but just we have different opinions of how our hard earned beast should work... and about kk thing i agree kk was good enough but once users got sammy taste of lp , kk seemed to be quite old to me

having said all these we also know that how cunning is Samsung when it comes to updates. like someone pointed out 910f getting 5.1 and 910g users waiting (yes there will be delay in publishing region specific updates ) cannot be justified at any cost.

exactly why 910C exynos users gets updates early ?? as likewise someone pointed that googles devices gets updates earlier then why exynos gets it first ?? does google tells sammy to just update exynos first and then work 4 5 months to get to other devices ?? this is the thing that most users here dont understand and like including me...cant say about you :)

between how are you bro , its been sometime you are away from here , hope everything kool ??

yea I'm good adithya. hru. no time for xda these days. just forcing myself in xda cos of note 5?.
[Galaxy Note5 General] lycan_codex:
Great battery life with the stock settings before disabling most of the bloatware. I am sure the black theme might have helped a bit. It was mostly whatsapp, google play books and browsing using chrome.
[Galaxy Note5 General] pakure:
Stock Android is so boring. ..if you want it to look like a nexus. ..just install the material theme. .

There is so much we usually do with TouchWiz that we take it for granted. ..

for example...the daily copy /paste..the inbuilt OTG function

the file manager can extract zip files. ..

we use the samsung video player which just plays almost all formats. .

the music player is the best with sorting your collection in folders wise too. .

The blue tooth connection is top notch with me rocking my moto 360, MI band and playing music by BT in the car..all at the same time

The new inbuilt WiFi chip gets me full speed on my 54mbps router and I can feel the difference

The S health app is great for all those who use it making best use of all the inbuilt sensors

And don't forget the myriad uses of the s pen...you can select and copy texts selectively even from apps like WhatsApp using the s pen

Hardware is top notch on Samsung phones. ..yes they are slow on updates but then what's the point in getting the latest if it is still buggy and untested ( had lot of issues with lollipop on my nexus 7 and wife's nexus 4)

I had rooted almost all devices i have used so far, but for the first time i might change my mind, coz the stock build is lightning fast n sans of any lag at all,i managed to remove bloatware by package disabler, one nagging was by the name "diagmonagent"after disabling everything fine now, i hvnt used such a built before but i definitely miss xposed module, anybody using that on Indian version,

[Galaxy Note5 General] yajur:
how much you got ?
[Galaxy Note5 General] kdatale:
I bought it for 57,500 INR
[Galaxy Note5 General] pakure:
Funny thing happened today in Berlin. ..the fast charging adapter is little thicker than the other note series chargers at the neck and doesn't fit in the recessed type C electrical sockets in Germany. .I didn't realise that. ..so went into one of the biggest electronic stores in Berlin : Saturn to buy an adapter.... went straight into the samsung cafe inside ( a real cafe where they serve coffee)... put it on the wireless charger there and in 10 mins of having coffee. ..the phone charged from 5% to 45% ...and 4 people who came there thought it was for sale and were really excited to find the note 5 there. ..and were disappointed poor chaps. ..no note 5 in europe..lol

I also played with the gear VR innovators edition there...it's just awesome. .I am getting the new gear VR2 once it's launched anywhere in the world.

Hi, could someone please confirm if the 64gb version sold in India is N920 G or I?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nitinmits:
N920G
[Galaxy Note5 General] pakure:
Not the new one. .I played with the innovator edition that supports note 4.. .new one that is compatible with note 5 and sedge+ is about to be launched

The VR has a track/touch pad on the side to navigate and input touch response. .the best part is the 3d immersion experience you get (though it's slightly pixellated yet.... and now I know why we need 4k on mobiles[emoji12] )...

The way the on screen inputs get highlited/selected when you turn your head to look at them is awesome

I think for 100$ ( for the upcoming VR2..). it's totally worth it ...the earlier version was launched at 200$

[Galaxy Note5 General] ruchirtrehan:
Hey there peeps!

So, i've finally decided to carry the Note 5 along with the 6s (yeah I always use 2 phones together :p). I currently got the Silver N5 which I at first loved but seem to be pretty annoyed by it now since it shines and bounces the light like crazy and I really wana swap this thing with some different one. I'm really interested in the Gold, so anyone with Gold has any opinions if or if I should not go with it? Some of my friends say it might look a little weird but oh well, I'll really like to know from ya'll. If the Gold is also a no-go guess I'll need to stick to my "the forever" same black. ://

Thanks in advanced!! :D
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Gold is not too shiny gold.. I actually liked it better than black bcoz black looks like old color and doesn't reveal real great design of note 5

BTW which iPhone 6s u got and from where and price
[Galaxy Note5 General] ruchirtrehan:
Since I'm in the US now I got it from the Apple Store, Beverly Center on T-Mobile. It's the regular 6s (no Plus) 64 GB model, Rose Gold. Costed me $730, idk how that much is in India currency, will need to convert. :p

Duh, guess I'll go with the Gold then since honestly, I'm bored with the blacks. You sure I wont be trolled around by people? :p
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
If u fear that then get get some skin for back

Check for ur self in any stores
[Galaxy Note5 General] ruchirtrehan:
I've seen it, had it in my hands but no experience on how other people think about it, friends mostly. Well, will go and check again to decide and buy it there itself this morning!
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
If u buy from US will it have warranty in india?
[Galaxy Note5 General] franksmj:
Goto xe.com and see the conversion rate
[Galaxy Note5 General] ruchirtrehan:
Nope, but I wont need that either since I'll be staying here for the next 3 years. I don't need warranty all together nyways as I'm definitely gona root this one. :p

[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
after everyone telling gold was good,i checked a gold 64gb it had no issues but the moment i saw the gold color ,i started disliking it and it's too flashy.my black and my previous silver felt far better...........everyone has their own opinions so guys telling gold is the best color available do stop it here.............we have many more useful aspects to discuss and share here in XDA
