<p style="text-align: justify;">Samsung announced the Galaxys S6 Edge Plus, the larger version of the S6 Edge, two weeks back in India and today the company has announced its flagship phablet smartphone, the Galaxy Note 5. Revealed last month, the Note 5 sees a number of new features the most relevant being its design. The Note 5 adopts Samsung’s new glass and metal design philosophy which was seen on the Galaxy S6, S6 Edge and the S6 Edge Plus. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The Note series has been quite popular ever since Samsung announced the first version back in 2011 and now we have the fifth generation which is sleek and feels a lot like a larger version of the Galaxy S6. The glass body does make it quite slippery which might not appeal to some. It comes with a 5.7-inch 2K (2560x1440 pixels) resolution Super AMOLED display, same as the last version, which looks amazing and is one of the best displays we have ever seen. Other new updates include a new Samsung made octa-core processor, similar to that as the Galaxy S6, 4GB of RAM and fixed storage options of 32GB and 64GB. The decision of not having expandable storage option could be deal breaker for some fans. In the camera department you get a 16MP camera at the back and a 5MP camera on the front which performs and offers similar photo quality as the S6 which proved to be one of the best smartphone cameras. The battery pack is slightly smaller and rates at 3000mAh but Samsung claims that it will not compromise on the backup and will provide a better battery life than the Note 4. It is also sealed unlike the last year’s model, something that is not usually seen on Samsung devices. However, like the Galaxy S6, comes with wireless charging which is always great to free yourself from getting cluttered with wires.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://bw-image.s3.amazonaws.com/Note5-3.jpg"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The S-pen stylus, which has been the USP of the Note series has also been updated and now comes with a premium metal finish and a click button at the back which is basically a lock before you remove it from the smartphone, giving it a ball-pen resemblance. The Note 5 comes with a new feature where you can use the S-Pen to quickly make notes on the phablet even when the display is locked as Samsung has put in a feature where the handset can detect when S-Pen is taken out its holster and lets you scribble on the dark locked display.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" src="http://bw-image.s3.amazonaws.com/note5-2.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 513px;"></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The new Galaxy Note 5 will be available from the 20<sup>th</sup> of September and is priced at Rs. 53,990 for the 32GB version and Rs. 59,990 for the 64GB version. There is a pre-order option as well where Samsung is bundling wireless charger along with the handset and a 24 month EMI option.</p><p> </p>
