Despite my elitist Nexus or GTFO I bought the note because I loved the design of note5/s6. It does feel like a premium device

Had the unit for just two weeks, but after the checking the flash and heart rate sensor, there are a lot scratches already.

Back glass is whack!
My back glass broke after sliding from my dashboard to the floor board all while it was inside of a case. I have never liked phones with glass body desgin. I kinda bought this phone with that in mind and have regretted my decision immediately since getting it. Coming from the S5, I've lost a lot of functions that I had come accustom to using. Also the cheaper build quality of the S5 withstood much, much, more than this note 5 has so far.

its way to slippery i ve had to put a skin on it just to stop it slipping threw my hands ...i cant believe designers not thinking it could become the slippery's phone on earth

Im glad and delighted that the body is full metal this time. Dont' get me wrong, I love my note 3 however the build quality is EXcellent. I know iphone users have enjoyed all metal frame body for awile, but I like what samsung did with the note 5. It looks sexay in the hand and it feels sexay in the hand as well.

quality is great doesn't feel cheep as many Youtubers pointed out.
though I didn't want to do that I bought a glass protector cause GG3 isn't scratch proof ? and I don't know how it happened but mine got a scratch, maybe from dust in my pockets ...
the good thing with this screen protector is:
it solves the polarization issue.
Assuming we do not take price into consideration, the build material (polyesther plastic) definitely does feel cheap and not luxurious like other smartphones. Notch is not something you can't adapt after 1 month of use though.
For me smooth interface with good touch screen is most important than IR cam. Wish they invest more on better touch screen with Amoled display instead of IR camera.
Chuck it in a case and who would know it's substantially cheaper! Build quality is pretty much the same once it's in a case + screen protector !

Premium materials! Hardened plastic + Gorilla Glass 5 is a win!
i've seen that in just a couple of days the screen and the back get easily scratched on regular usage, my friends unit had faint scratches in just 10 days, I guess its the price we pay for fancy looking stuff, the build however is solid , feels nicely weighted and dense
Average feels, not premium type feel for sure
Feels like premium,but not like hignend premiums.The phone build quality is good and the frames seems like aluminium,but the display glass and back glass are little bit of scratches by just normal use,it is the only disappointing thing...
Solid device with a premium feel. The glass back is really nice, although slippery.

It looks nice but I think it's really stupid to put glass on the back of any phone - wish they used metal and a metal that would stick to my magnetic car holder - the phone is way too slippery and designed to slip from the hand and smash on the ground for sure

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I agree with you, however as a previous mi a1 user leaving it exposed in wet places wouldn't be a good idea
It looks beautiful, especially the back, but god damn the finger marks are getting me paranoid every time I take off the case rofl, the physical buttons feedback when I press them feels so good, quite enjoyable.

Feels decently solid not too plasticy light or flimsily, but its far too smooth. I see an accident waiting to happen (has a few times) like a wet wienie being held in a baby oil grip. A case is a must have!
The screen is good im a contractor and have put in my pocket with tons of bad stuff like rough sharp metal doodads. Its been scratched but holding up remarkably to my abuse. Still needing to buy a glass screen protector to prolong clarity.
The end pieces cap and butt are "crappy" meaning soft plasticy and they are indented scratched but the overall finish paint n protective coating seems to be sticking well to the pieces all over the phone. Maybe this will be a good thing for refurnishing expense.(cheap replacement part$)
Love the feel look and design its a little strange being longer vs wider. I would have liked it just a wee bit wider than longer than it is. I'd say maybe an 7 or 8 of 10. The design and feel of the phone has to be the the most impressive aspect. Could have been a all star with a few tweaks IMO.

I like and dislike (I know it's weird) the "sound" of the hinge... Yes, if you are in a really quiet place, you hear the brushes in the hinge doing their job. It's nice though, knowing that they are their, as advertised. But it kinda sounds a bit awkward at the same time.
Maybe it's just me
what about the touch feeling of materials is it nice to touch or not?
Well I have had my fold 2 for a few days now, upon the unboxining and first initial impressions I most certainly didn't go oh this is fragile. The fold 2 feels extremely well constructed and after watching Zacks video I feel even more confident. People say oh but the inner display will scratch with your fingernails (i can't speak for everyone) but I personally cut mine :laugh:
I am not going to detract this amazing device by getting a case , I have however got my Dbrand skins on the way.
Personally I feel safe and secure and credit to Samsung for the great improvements........:good:
definitely feels better than i thought it would when i took out the box other day. more solid than the Fold(1)
Just got mine in black with blue spine. Was surprised to find that the phones edges are very lightly ridged. That's an amazing subtle touch that I've never seen on any phone I've had. Very nice finish to the device.
Mine had a case on the device and the case actually scratched the polished metal rim also the case too pulled the screen protector slightly need a better case
I bit disappointed in the scratches by the case on the metal hinge that's why the more expensive cases comes with tape to prevent damage. Oh well
