Still good as new?

Anyone here ever had any major issues with the note 5? No broken screen... Spen anything??

I haven't. I was able to easily resist the urge to insert the SPen backwards in the device.

Everything works very well... though the battery under heavy use needs to be recharged from 40% about two to three times a day. Thank goodness for quick charging.

I got mine wet a couple weeks ago and it went haywire. After 4 days in riceit works PERFECTLY!!

I think it's trying to tell me not to give up on it and get a Note 8.

When I worked for Verizon had a co worker that did that to his phone just to see if it was actually true. LMAO

I have one, looks like a brand new phone, than again I only occasionally use it. It was my main phone for 6 months, than became a back up to my S7. I wanted something smaller for daily use.

Funny thing when I heard that, I literally thought they just meant with Samsung logo under instead of on top. I didnt realize people were actually inserting it end first, holding the tip....

To me it seemed so ridiculous. The motion of putting it in like that was unnatural to me. Similar to replacing a pen cap, you have the though process of 'I am putting the pen away' and that doesn't mean put the pen tip side toward you.

There are too many idiots in the world. I guess that's why the world is what it is right now, we have a lot of possible mass extinction scenarios developing.

My Note 5 is still working great and will be two years old in December.

I did have to root the phone and use a debloated ROM so that I could actually use the phone and not have the battery drain in 8 hrs even with no usage at all.

I have more or less been using it as my daily phone and leaving my S8+ at home which I have never taken out of the house yet in the two months I have owned it.

I'll keep using it for another year. I don't think I'll be buying the Note 8 since I have the S8+.
