If you didn't upgrade to the Note 4, what will the Note 5 need to improve upon in order to get you more interested in upgrading?

Here's my wish list:
1. Better sound. Do away with rear speaker and give us stereo sound on the front.
2. 64 bit processor in order to improve processing efficiency and enhance battery life.
3. Better low light sensitivity with larger rear camera sensor
4. Improved, easier to use fingerprint sensor on a par with Apple's.
5. Unique metal case design. (The N4 has arguably just copied an older Apple case design with its beveled metal frame.)
6.Return the USB 3.0 port of the Note 3.
7. Enhanced phone call quality.
8. Better inter carrier compatibility. ( Apple is doing this with the Ipad Air 2.)
9. Make the s- pen more user friendly. It isn't very intuitive to use right now.
10. Get rid of some of the bloat ware that takes up nearly half of the Note 4's internal memory.

This should be in the rumored devices forum...

This isn't a rumored device. We have no idea what is in the works for the N5. Manufacturers do listen, to what customers want and often plan accordingly. If we weren't sold on the N4, they need to hear why, so they have a better chance next year to get our business, should they decide to listen.

It is a rumored device as it isn't out yet and we are expecting it but we don't know 100% if it will be released. And yes we just got the 4. Enjoy it for a while. You've got a whole year :)

You will be disappointed with the Note 5 as no phone is going to meet all your wish list needs. You should be looking at other phones, and this should be posted in the rumor device forum. The Note 4 was just released, and a lot of people are happy with it.

Half of the internal memory? Do some correct mah please. The note has about 22gb and half of 32 is 16.... Note when I had a nexus 5 32gb I had like 23-24 gb free so it's not that bad.


Speaker sounds better on the note 4 then note 3

I'm not even sure. For now I'm just going to enjoy the 4 (I've had it for like a week now.. Almost) - so I am not worried about the 5 just yet :D.

Slow down please. I'm still waiting for Verizon to ship me my Note 4. Note 5 isn't even on my mind.

Personally I think it's time for Samsung across the board on all devices not let carriers put any bloat ware.
Last night I went out to dinner with a few friends and my friend pulled out the iPhone 6 and it's just smooth and not over exaggerated with bloat ware. I came from an iPhone 5S yes the Note 4 blows iPhone specs but I must say and will always say this all these apps on a phone out the box is stupid and annoying even if you are able to disable they are still there taking up space. I also belive the best OS available is a true Android OS without anything else toe to toe against IOS I believe it is far superior. I would love the ability or a Samsung Note 4 of having pure android with Note S Pen functionality.

Not going to happen and some people happen to use the "bloatware". I use a few of them myself. Space they take up isn't a big deal

Phones are kind of peaking as far as technology goes.
Not sure what else you can do but make a slightly faster phone with some software improvements.
The only thing that might get me to bite on a Note 5 is a better designed phone otherwise I'm planning on keeping my Note 4 for 2-3 years.

This should have been in the Note 3 forum, since the OP is asking people who didn't buy the Note 4 for opinions. I would assume that most people in the Note 4 forum bought the Note 4 or are planning to. :)

I think it's a given that about 7 out of the 10 will be improved in the next iteration. The bloat won't go away because it's a carrier issue, not Samsung. The design is very arguable, depending on your tastes.
