I like that it's easier to use than the note 3 because of its size. battery life is about the same as the note 3 and I don't really notice a slow down compared to the 3gb of ram on the note 3

Just curious, I might trade in my S5 for a Note 4 around Christmas break when highschool finishes for me, yay.
I'm probably willing to only pay 100 to 150 extra + trade in for the device though.
What are you guys' reasons for moving to the Note 4 or not moving to the Note 4?
I honestly don't like the Samsung s series I've been a huge fan of note series.
Only phone I don't own was note 3 currently own note2 I am for sure upgrading to note 4 no doubt about it.
Reasons would be obvious currently I own note 2
It has got a better hardware
16mp OIS which I was looking forward for I wanted the Samsung guys to upgrade the can which they did this time I am happy I wanted a more better but satisfied with this .
Spen improved a lot multi tasking which I am a huge fan of on note series.
Apart from this its less gimiciky and more productive as compared to s5

I am moving from S5 to Note 4, bigger screen, better battery, hopefully better performance am not totally happy with my s5s performance.
I'm thinking of making the move as well, mostly for the OIS camera and larger screen. Hoping for a dual sim version though....
Definitely going back to Note series, never S again.
I went from note3 to the S5, felt like a downgrade, biggest mistake :/
can anyone plz suggest me which is better galaxy s4 OR galaxy note 3 neo OR asus zenfone2 ?
i want to shift from ios to android ,as i am a heavy user of ios
i am a user of apple from 4s model at present i am using 5s and ipad air, i dont want a high end adroid.
but i want to buy a mid range android, can u plz suggest me.
Being a S4 owner I am biased towards the handset but it is quick and able to keep up with the front row of android mobiles available.
All the way s4, low end with awesome specs and on top of that active development section.

The Zenfone 2 is better for performance. It is more powerfull than the Galaxy S4, outperforms the about every phone when it gets down to pure multitasking. Even running 4 games at the same time, is no problem for the Zenfone 2 4GB RAM model.
If you need a great camera & microphone, then you have to choose the Galaxy S4.
Just a quick survey to find out if and why
No. Only things better on S7 is IP68 and microSD slot. It will be great to see this in N6.
For the moment for me N5 is better than S7
Nope, none of the new features are a must have for me

I just switched to Note5 and can attest that , for me, it's way better because of :
- Better screen (size, quality and power consumption)
- Faster and better battery life
- I definitely prefer samsung bloarware

How is Marshmellow treating you?
It's a marketing strategy game, nothing is so that amazing with the S7/edge just few upgrades to the S6 which were on the S5, they are bringing back the old features to attract customers, and thats gonna happen to the note 6, micro sd, bigger battery capacity and maybe IP68
Nope. S pen and screen size. Will wait for Note 6

No problem keeping my Note 5 till we see what's new with the Note 6.

It's a better experience and no problems so far.
I wonder how it will evolve with googymax goodness
That's a downgrade to me, bigger screen, S-Pen, possibly better battery life and such. Sticking with N5 until N6.

You call it 'upgrade'.
I call it 'downgrade' tbh...
I will stay with note 5, upgarded from s6 edge... nothing new in s7 only sd and waterproof that exist already in sony devices. You will say camera? Camera in my note 5 is great and i dont need a new one.

Yep Note 5 camera stand tall, nothing to be ashamed off. i would like to test the S7 Edge personally to see how camera perform in low light, then probably wait for Note 6 as it will have 4000mah at least.
No
I ordered an S7 edge, but keeping my note 5 too.
I am looking forward to the smaller screen in the S7 - I am not a huge fan of large phones though. Water resistance is also something I will use, so that's welcome.

Do you guys have any guess as to how battery of s7 edge will compare to note 5 (aside from saying it's 20% bigger)? Coming from s6 they did some black magic to note 5 battery

Going to the S7 Edge because of the change to the Snapdragon processor. Should mean universal Rom support with AOSP & Cyanogen based development.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Yep switching to the S7 Edge for the snapdragon and hopes for asop and roms.
I absolutely love my Note 5 but that S7 edge is damn sexy. I'm really tempted but I think I'll try and wait for the Note 6.
Unfair poll, if it was a note 6 vs our beloved note 5 with outstanding features built in the upcoming note, our votes would be mixed then. I don't see much added value in switching to a lower powered version of my phone. Without a pen.

Hy guys, I have an iPhone 5S and I want to return to Android. I can trade my 5S with an Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note 3. I know hardware of both devices, but which is the best for performance, gaming, battery life? I want to mod the phone when i pick up it, so I want to install on S5 or Note 3 a rom that can port UI and apps of S7/Note4-5 on the device. So, help me.
Galaxy S5 pro: better display, better camera, IP67 certificate, fingerprint, S-health with cardio, Snapdragon 801 > Snapdragon 800
Galaxy Note 3: S-Pen, display 5.7inch (I love big display), better sound, better multitasking (3GB ram), and A LOT OF ROM, there are very fantastic porting of galaxy s7, note 5 and more..
So, Galaxy S5 or Note 3?
You asked in note3 forum. So we will say note 3.
If you ask in S5 forum they will say S5.
If you plan to use the phone in water, take S5.
Else with bigger screen, ram, internal storage(32gb) note 3 is much better.
S5 is a mistake from samsung. When it was launched, it cost the same as note 3 eventhough note 3 was launched 6 months earlier. Why on earth people want to buy 5.1 inch screen, 2gb ram and 16gb rom when they can have better phone with the same price. I don't know anyone using S5. But i have many friends bought a note 3 even after S5 was launched. That's my personal opinion.

S5+N3 = 8 divide by two = Note 4 .

Add few more bucks and buy a note 4, you will have the features of both s5 and note 3.
There is a certain lag when you open some apps.
I don't game much but I can tell when it lags. Not like windows 2000 lag.
But if you like to draw and stuff, this device is still good.
The lag is mainly because nowadays an app that used be around 5 to 10 MB is now 30 - 70 MB.
Their app is getting obese. Cheers. Hope it helps.

I have both phones, S5 Snapdragon 801 and the Note 3 Exynos
I have to say if only I have the Snapdragon Note 3 ver, I won't be thinking of getting the S5 (smaller screen, smaller ram)
since note 3 SD capabilities was on par (or so I thought) with the S5 SD in terms of everything but camera (the S5 has a really nice camera and has a good low light capabilites)
If you like bigger screen with bigger ram, and using the SPen, go for Note 3, its performance was not so different than the S5
But S5 has a nice features that Note 3 doesn't, weird Fingerscanner, IP67, Heartrate sensor, and a better 16mp camera.

I don't understand the word POCO
But the lag is not that major.
The hardware is getting dated on Note3 by today's standards but as long as someone in the XDA community is supporting this device you can buy it.
There will always be some new roms
The lag is not that imposing at this time.
I would never exchange my Note 3 to a S5.
But I have one tip. Choose the black color for both. It's more beautiful.
I bought a Note 3 black 32gb N9005 (hlte). It's fantastic!

DarkLord Note 5 RC 2.1
I used it for a long time. It missed a few to be perfect. But @dakera13 just stop its development. Just use it with CiVZ kernel (I liked the version 1.0.8) or some Idle kernel in order to have a best performance for playing games. I do like darkera's work because he keep the ROM simple and near to an original Samsung ROM.
DarkLord S7 Edge Ported
Beside AryaMod S7 Edge Ported, that should be the future because is assigned by @darkera13 and also because it is a Marshmallow ROM based. I just don't installed this ROM because the current version needs to flash some correction files and I just had some laziness of to do it.
AryaMod v8.3
It should be the second ROM that I used more. This ROM should have the best battery life. A think everything should works well in this ROM. But unfortunately this ROM is based on Lollipop of the Note 3 and it don't have some Samsung modern things like Theme Store etc.
AryaMod S7 Edge Ported
My current ROM. This ROM is assigned by @Kamy, so I'm also thrusting in its work. The current version is stable and beautiful, with some mods, but not too much, and this is good.
Phronesis
I think its developers was ones of the first that continues the work in DarkLord Note 5 RC 2.1 when @darkera13 stopped it, and they also kept that work correcting some issues and including good things like Scroll Capture etc. But they added some custom things like an own "official" wallpaper with its own name. And they added to much possible mods that I honestly don't need and they did more another things like include S7 wallpapers instead of Note 5 wallpapers in a Note 5 ROM based. Well, for me they went away from a Samsung stock ROM, and I personally don't like it too much. But it is a functional ROM with some improvements, maybe the most developed Lollipop Note 5 ROM based, and if you don't care about those "buts" and maybe if you like that, the ROM would be good for you.

You just will need some third camera app like Open Camera or Camera ZOOM FX because the stock camera included doesn't work fully due to the hardware limitation. But to take photos in front and rear cameras and to record videos in rear camera is ok.
If you run it on AOSP it's pretty slick. I downgraded from an Exynos Note 4 to a Note 3, and in everyday use with AOSP I don't feel like I'm worse of in terms of performance.
