How can I have 2 totally separate contact lists on my note 5.

i have my regular contact list, but now I would like to create a professional contacts that ONLY show my address book of my professional contacts.

My personal contacts are no problem, I just don't want them together.

You have a couple options. First one is to set up a new Group and add the business contacts there. Everything else will be under the general group, but this is all stored as a single list, just with group identifiers. You can further filter the contacts in the app to just show a single group, though.

If you want to keep them entirely separate then you can save each list to separate locations (i.e. One to your Google account and one locally, or create a separate Google account for business contacts, etc.)
