Even though some were skeptical of the potential of the “phablet” design trend that sprung up some time ago, so far such phones have been enjoying a lot of popularity on the market and we’ve seen lots of good releases from various companies. It’s safe to say at this point that phablets are not only here to stay, but they are actually one of the main staples of the market right now, and it’s important for all companies to pay attention to them in order to stay relevant.
Samsung’s Galaxy Note has always been a popular line in this area of the market, and we expect that they will remain so popular in the long run as well, as long as Samsung keep putting effort into the designs of the Note devices and keep innovating. Realistically speaking, there isn’t that much that people want to see in a good phablet, and as long as the device is capable of offering a smooth OS experience while also showing a crisp, clear picture, it should see no problems on the market.
Case in point, the Galaxy Note 5 – it might not have come with too many innovations or interesting new additions, but the phone was still popular enough to establish a very solid presence on the market, and people were very excited about it once it was released. After that, its popularity didn’t die down as well, and the Note 5 is currently one of the most popular phones on the market in general, not just in the phablet category.
After the device has been out for some time, reviewers have started to look at the finer points of its design and we’ve seen some interesting reviews coming out. Lately, people have been taking more in-depth looks at the phone and comparing it to other devices on the market, and it’s obvious that the Note 5 still has a lot to offer when pitted against other phablets, even other phones by Samsung themselves.
The design of the phone is one of the features that have been the particular subject of praise, as many people are fond of how well Samsung have handled the physical design of the phone and the production quality of its parts. Of course, not everyone pays so much attention to this aspect of a smartphone, but it’s safe to say that there are lots of lovers of quality designs among tech fans nowadays, and this is actually becoming a very important point for consideration.
Of course, it should go without saying that this phone is a beast when it comes to performance, and it definitely has a lot to offer under the hood. It’s not an underpowered Android device, and its hardware is more than capable of maintaining the output of the large screen nicely and adequately. No obvious slowdowns can be noticed in the operating system, and the whole experience is smooth and nice.
Comparing it to phones like the Galaxy S6 Edge+, there are some obvious advantages for the latter – but in the end, the Note 5 manages to stand out on its own and the phone is no toy on the Android market. Those who want a device with a nice, large screen and lots of features to explore should definitely consider the Note 5 as their primary phone, even if they weren’t fans of the phablet trend in the first place.
