Love the Note 5 but.........

[techgeek32#WN]

I have used every Note device. I still have a Note 4. I hate the loss of external storage not a huge problem losing the battery but I have found that the Note 5 does not play well with Microsoft Sync and only holds a very small amount of contact notes in Microsoft Exchange accounts. That is a deal breaker for me. The display is nicer than the Note 4 and the battery is about the same. Not needing a wireless back cover or case is great and the new S Pen software is excellent, does not work with OneNote though. Continual crashes. Mine is going back. If you are a power Exchange user you might want to skip the Note 5.

I'm more curious how much data you have per Contact? What if you wanted to share said Contact's information, would you remove the 'notes' prior to sharing it? I stopped adding notes to Contact because of 'sharing'. I use Evernote for that

I have a very large Onenote file system, it has not crashed or given me any issues yet. I set mine up on Saturday so I've used it for a good 4 days now. I use NineMail for my exchange account which has also worked perfectly. However it uses the stock contact file/app so I'll be keeping an eye on that.

Sorry to hear you have had a poor experience. I've had nothing come up yet.

I use the S pen with One Note and also synced in my contacts from my Microsoft Exchange account. I haven't had any issues.

You should really try Nine app for Exchange along with Google Calendar.

No issues with OneNote as well here.

Thanks for the OneNote feedback. The problem I am having is after writing notes for about 5 minutes continously it crashes and removes all of the text that I was writing. I removed and reinstalled it and still the same problem. I will do a hard reset and see if that works.
