Logtonet. - Here is other review about smartphone from Samsung Galaxy. In this time we will show you review about Advantages and Disadvantages of Samsung Galaxy Note 5. (You also can read: Samsung Galaxy A8 Review: Features, Disadvantages, Price, and Feels so Falgship).


By 2015, Samsung Galaxy Note comes back with various amendments which named Samsung Galaxy Note 5.

Design

Unlike the Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note comes with 5 different body design. First, he was clad in metal material on the back, grooves on the rear side of the body, as well as the position of the flash and the sensor which is now located next to the camera behind him.

Front view has not changed much, except the screen is widening. However, the dimensions of the phone are the same as the previous variant. That means, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 has a screen bezel thinner than previous variants.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 have also been used uni-body design. He only comes with a slot for a SIM card-type nano-SIM. Unfortunately, Samsung did not provide additional storage slot in this phone, so the storage is limited to 32GB of internal storage.

Another difference and the most striking on this phone is the S Pen. In addition comes with performance and accuracy better than ever, the S Pen on the Galaxy Note 5 are also easier to remove. It has a button with a special mechanism so that the S Pen can be removed by simply pressing the button.

Obviously, you can not enter the S Pen is in a state upside down. It can make the S Pen stuck and can not be removed again. If carefully, the possibility of mounting the S Pen upside down is minimal.

Software and Interfaces

Samsung has equipped Samsung Galaxy Note 5 with a variety of special applications, such as S Note and S Health. In contrast to S Note, S Health app that actually comes with various changes. Healthcare applications from Samsung is now features a more diverse, ranging from heart rate detection, counting steps, to calculate the number of calories of food to assist users in the diet. S Health app also has a system of "reward" which allows users to continue to move.

Health sensor on the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 also performed much better and more accurate than ever before. The sensor is located on the flash which is located on the camera back. We found that the sensor will continue to count the steps when the user is in the vehicle, so we had to turn it off before climbing into a vehicle.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is also very convenient to use with other apikasi on Google Play Store that require a stylus, such as Draw and Paint Autodesk, Autodesk Formit 360, until Autodesk AutoCAD 360. This makes the mobile phone is also very suitable for those working in the field of design or engineering.

Galaxy Note 5 has been using a system of Samsung's latest TouchWiz interface. At first glance, it is not much different from before, but when activating Air Command, we can see something different. Water through the command, users can now enter a shortcut (shortcut) for certain programs. The feature allows us the time to open a special program quickly.

Another feature that we think is useful is Off Screen Note. This feature allows us to write something quickly without having to unlock the phone. This feature is very useful when we do reporting that demands we must always be responsive to every event.

Backed with a screen resolution of 1440 x 2560, writing or drawing made on this phone can be presented with a very detailed and accurate.

Camera and Video

Such as Samsung Galaxy Note 4, the phone also comes with a camera that has an image capture quality is excellent. Samsung not only equip the camera with a great resolution, but also a very good sensor.

The combination of both has made the camera on the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is able to produce very detailed images.

Neither photographing scenery, moving objects, to take pictures of objects up close, everything can be done very well. In addition, the camera also strongly support the application needs of the shooting. In addition to having a variety of shooting modes, the camera application also has a manual mode alias expert.

Unfortunately, all the sophistication of the camera on this phone only work optimally if the object to be photographed has right light. This is evident when we try to take pictures with this phone in various conditions. For bright conditions, the picture often come to be too bright. While in low light conditions, we feel the phone is difficult to focus on objects that we choose. Nonetheless, the shots are both still have a very nice detail.

This phone has been given the ability to record video up to 4K resolution. However, users should be careful because the recording with great resolution will spend memory quickly. When tried, we get that to do the recording for 20 seconds at 4K resolution, this phone requires a storage space of 120MB.

That means, 1GB can only record video for approximately 160 seconds. Unfortunately, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is not equipped with an external memory, thus recording at 4K resolution will be very limited.

We prefer to record with a resolution of 1080p or Full HD, because the recording has been supporting the framerate to 60fps. The recording capabilities make the resulting video has a very smooth motion and smooth, detail of the picture is also very good, the same as the picture shots.

Special again, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 can do live streaming through YouTube directly.

Performance and Battery

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is equipped with top class hardware components. This phone uses a processor made by Samsung, octa-core Exynos 7420. With these processors, Samsung Galaxy Note 5 can run heavy applications that we all crammed without a hitch.

Exynos 7420 processor is not the only component that makes this phone runs very fast. Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is equipped with 4GB of RAM LPDDR4. Not only a great capacity, but also the speed of RAM LPDDR4 has made a wide range of programs can be run very smoothly, including multitasking activity.

Multitasking is one of the security features in this phone. Just like before, you can select two compatible applications to run simultaneously on the screen. We also had piled up to more than 20 applications are run on this phone, and he can still run very smoothly.

The same was seen when we play one game in the Android severe that XCOM: Enemy Within. The game goes without a hitch in all aspects, including when the game enters the toughest part.

As usual, the performance of a mobile phone can not be considered good if not tested with an application benchmark. As we expected, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is able to carve a very big score, either in testing using the 3DMark and PCMark.

In fact, in tests using 3DMark, the phone managed to break the record scores in the table bechmark our previously held phones Sony Xperia Z3 +.

That little makes us disappointed was the performance of the battery. In our test, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 can only survive for 6 hours 33 minutes, whereas the Galaxy Note 4 can last for 7 hours 11 minutes.

This is due to the use of the battery capacity is lower than the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, only 3.000mAh. But in day-to-day applications, it still can last all day under normal use.

Conclusion

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is the latest premium mobile phone that offers high performance and maximum usage experience. He is designed to be able to do all things, and we admit that Samsung has quite managed to make it so. We also did not find any fatal errors that can make the phone is not worthy of the title premium phones.

Indeed, it should be recognized that the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is still not perfect and still has minor shortcomings. However, he is still the best phone for professionals who work in mobile.
