First one had dead pixel right in the middle of the screen. Second phone kept getting the battery overheating message and would not let me use any apps besides the phone app. Exchanged for my third this morning...so far so good. Even worse news however, is that while I was getting my last phone there was another guy in there getting an exchange on his Note 5 for the screen going bad. He said it started out in the upper left hand corner and eventually just spread throughout the entire screen. He said he had the phone for about a week and a half. Needless to say, I'm slightly worried that Samsung may have rushed this out just a bit too quickly. Time will tell I suppose. Happy otherwise

I'm on my second. The first one had an issue with the glass not being fused with the display properly. There were small gaps between the glass and the display. Not really a huge issue but in certain colors you can notice it.
But most, if not all, devices have their issues and bad batches, defects etc..
I just posted about me being on second note not even in a week. Screen went dead, flickers green.

I personally think Samsung rushed this device and we're paying for it. Disappointed. .. but still like it over my S4
Yea, not knocking the phone...seriously a bad ass phone for sure...best out there right now as far as I'm concerned. Just stating my experience so far. Third phone holding up so far

Notbing to be shocked about. Everything has a error rate. Some note 5's have defects, most do not.
I am a technician at Sprint retail location. I have seen all these issues, but very few and far between. It's not anything that I'm worried about, as I purchased a note 5 as well. Sometimes you get some bad luck.
My wife's new Note5 has had a few spells where it wouldn't ring for incoming calls or text, any thoughts on this?

If you haven't already, try ##72786# in the dialer.
Also make sure her network connections are set to LTE/CDMA and not Automatic. I've had a lot of service issues come in due to being set to automatic.

Thanks, I did set it to lte/CDMA but haven't done the ##72786# thing yet. It's done it twice, she's had it for a week now. You can call her and it goes straight to vm and not even ring.
If the problem persists, take it into a corporate store and have them 14 day exchange it for a new device. I would give it a few days after re-provisioning (the 72786 code) to see if it happens again. But be sure to do it within those 14 days (day 1 does not count, so it is 14 days after the day of the sale) so you are guaranteed to get a new device, although I am sure there aren't any reconditioned devices for the note 5.... yet.
edit: a word.
Thanks, yeah this Note5 was a replacement for a broken Note4 through asurion. Other than this little hiccup it's a very nice phone.

Yeah she likes it, I do too to be honest.
In that case, you have device protection, where if it is not working they will replace it in store. Just try to do it within 30 days where it doesn't hurt the tech's numbers.
But yes, you did get lucky, but not very surprisingly seeing as Note 4, even reconditioned, inventory is non-existent. Quickest I've ever seen a note series phone go off planogram and end of life.
Samsung can't fix these phones.
Sent mine in for the bottom of the screen not working, they say it's BER, and they can't fix it NO MATTER WHAT I WANT TO SPEND. I asked the guy over and over "If a board in my Samsung TV goes bad, you will replace it, but not in your flagship phone?" his answer was no they won't fix it.
They say it has water damage, which is hilarious. I MAY have pulled it out of my pocket, in it's case, in a drizzle once and in 3 weeks it's ruined?
If you don't have an otter case or something that completely encompasses this phone to keep the water out, I suggest you get one.
I've dropped a phone in a tub of water that is still working fine, a few drops on this phone and it's done.
I have to agree, I bet this phone gets a really bad reputation pretty quickly for being a super poor design.

All Note 4's are being replaced with Note 5's. If you start a claim online right after confirming you had a Note 4 it says it will be replaced with the Note 5 due to them not having Note 4's anymore.
Well my mother in law went to a sprint store having issues with her Note4, they had to order her a new phone and they sent her another Note4.

Sprint stores use a different company for replacement devices vs. Asurion. I do know that we are still replacing Note 4's with Note 4's in store, though it is on back order. Asurion is probably giving out Note 5's due to their vendor not being able to get an ample amount of Note 4's to offer next day replacements.

Well so here goes my drama with the infuse.. I recieved the first one like 2 weeks ago and shortly afterwards the simcard would not be read even after repeated flashing back to stock firmware. I called their technical support and got a replacement sent in. Last night the replacement came in and after playing with it for about an hour or so, the screen was flickering strangely. Soon the flickering turned into a weird flashing and all these lines ran across the screen. The top of the screen was on FIRE!!! underneth that gorilla glass the friggin thing was on fire. I took out the battery and the fire turned into a small smoulder afterwards it died off. I WAS PISSSSSED! i vowed never again to buy a samsung phone as they have really bad quality. So this morning after calling rogers and spending 2 hours jumping through the hoops and them forcing me to replace that infuse with another pos infuse, i negotated them to replacing it for the samsung galaxy s II w/ LTE and the 4.5 inch LCD.
Friggin hell.. i just hope that samsung galaxy s II will be of better quality than this infuse. All you guys on the infuse right now, i wish you the best and i hope problems like mine dont happen to you.
Lol, that is the drama. Unheard of. My Infuse is doing just fine, but I guess you should be glad that you got a free upgrade. The thing about Rogers is that you can always talk them into doing things.
Yea mines been doing fine and I got mine a month after release(US), I hope you really like that new phone because it basically the infuse on steroids! Dual core processor plus its LTE!! Its sgsII's Big brother

Holy ****! On fire thats insane!

I've actually been wondering if I should be getting warranty work done on mine or trying to exchange it. I've had my Infuse for about 2 months now, and every so often (maybe once or twice a month) the screen will just turn a completely different hue as if there was a yellow or red filter over it.
Maybe if I press the issue I can get a Galaxy S2 4.5"? XD

Well it was kinda covered under their 15 days buyers remorse policy. That policy helped this process but it nevertheless was like pulling out teeth. It talked to 10+, guys today and mostly all of them told me the only option is warranty work so that means a refurbished model of the infuse. To me that was unacceptable as it had two new phones and both were defective (well one was defective the other one the jury is still out). But yeah, if i were you, I'd go see if you could trade up. They probably will want you to pay something though..

Ah, I failed to realize that you were within that policy.
To be honest, I'm surprised you had such a hard time with them then. You should have been able to walk into the store and basically say you didn't want it anymore. Shame that they gave you such a hassle.

you know what really strange, im having the same issue you are. and im running a regular att infuse 4g
I've had mine since Sept. with no issues. Love this phone.
I recently got a gs4g and I've noticed two things, 1. there's a ray of light that bleeds from the home button and 2. the menu button likes to press itself once in a while.
I was wondering if anyone else has had similar problems and what their experience was like doing a return through tmo or samsung. Apparently tmo wants me to pay shipping, they won't send me a replacement first (even if I temporarily pay full price), and it will take 3 to 4 weeks. Samsung will pay for shipping, but they take just as long, don't guarantee anything, and at best send me a refurb back (no replacements).
These 2 problems are surprisingly minor in terms of usability (especially the menu button thing), so I've just kept the phone and it hasn't really pissed me off too much yet. What do you think I should do?
BTW this phone is out of the 20 day return period, I noticed the menu thing on like day 22.

Take that thing back to the TMOB store and tell them you want a new one. When they tell you that it's passed the grace period start to get a little loud. Keep getting louder until they either replace it for you or you are asked to leave by a security guard.
I was under the impression that the stores are separate entities from online sales with different prices and procedures. Has anyone taken a phone back to the store that was bought online? I have a feeling they'd tell me they couldn't do anything and to ship it back.
Check that it is a "company store" and not a franchise.
http://locator.t-mobile.com/
"T-Mobile Store" is what you are looking for, not a "T-Mobile Preferred Retailer"
I just got an exchange from tmobile and have the exact same issue with the light pertruding from home button, I don't have issue with menu button though. I noticed this on day one. But another issue I received with phone is if i shake or tap the phone I can feel the vibrator (its very faint but I can feel it) I even checked my old device to see if it did the same or if I was just crazy, and wouldn't you know it did not do it. I called tmobile and told them about it and of course got disconnected in middle of conversation, so rather than going through the issue with another rep (annoying) I am just dealing with it. Was thinking it was a bad lcd or could maybe cause it to fail prematurely that's why I called. Now that I see someone else has same light issue I think I'm gonna call them back

Yeah I think mine has that vibrator issue too, but I thought it was just natural vibration since the thing is so thin. That really doesn't bother me at all. It's amazing how benign these problems are, but I'd at least like to get that menu button fixed if it wasn't such a hassle.
I too have the home button light issue but not the menu button issue. And I can also feel it vibrate when I tap it a little. It never bothered me so I left it alone. I've had the phone for over a year and a half already and nothing seems to be malfunctioning.

Update: They *just* stopped selling this phone (possibly due to Apple's lawsuit), so t-mobile won't replace it anymore. The best they can do is the exhibit 4g (no thanks). I'm glad I snatched it when I did, just wish I noticed this problem sooner. I think I'm going to send it to Samsung for refurb.

Not so cool actually. For reasons like this plus lower supply = higher prices and lower community support, so be sure to thank the ROM devs every chance you get
Follow up: So I sent the phone back to Samsung for repairs. I told the guy on the phone about the menu button problem in great detail and he sent me an email with return info etc. I receive an email a few days after they receive it that basically says they ran some standard tests and couldn't determine that anything is wrong with it so please provide them more info. It didn't say how to provide them with more info so I just replied to the email with a very detailed description of how to reproduce the problem (basically just leave the phone on the table with the screen on). They send me back the phone, un-repaired, with a note about how nothing is wrong with it.
Moral of the story: Do not buy any Samsung product without also buying an extended warranty from the retailer. Samsung does not honor their warranty when it comes to intermittent problems that are not immediately reproducable.
Was in an AT&T store today and met a rep from LG there. I asked him about the V10, and he said that the Marshmallow update should be coming any day now. I want to exchange my 6S+ for an LG V10, but oh man that Note 5 in gold was stunning (as well as the screen)! But would take the LG because of SD card and removable battery.
LG will release it then At&t will have to get their grubby little hands on it... I'm not expecting it until Jan/Feb at the earliest. I'd love to be wrong though....
Maybe root will be possible with Marshmallow.

The Note 5 also has complete fail memory management (I own one). You're much better off with just about any other phone, unless you like having every single app reload every time you multitask back to it. LG has always done really well with the memory management.
Hoping it will come soon. Funny thing - if I still had my G3 I would have marshmallow already...

That only happens to display models. No one is going to keep their screen on 24/7 with the same static images coming on repetitively. Samsung screens are great once you change the default screen setting to a more natural setting.

Then you should look at some LG G Flex's. There's plenty of them with screen burn in. Happens to all oled/amoled screens even those not on Samsung products. I never had screen burn in and I had every galaxy phone since the first S1.. It's a trade off almost, you're trading ok lcd quality for superior image/refresh rate at the risk of some burn in which usually takes about two years of normal use to develop and by then you've moved on to another device so chances of it happening are rare. Unless you're buying the display model, I really don't see how this is even a debate.

I'm so annoyed with the lack of support on this phone going to the S7 edge. I had more high hopes for the second screen and the fingerprint scanner. I still have issues with it unlocking frequently. And this whole not getting an update when it was supposed to get it back in December... Meh
So I noticed today that the lower half of my display has a red tint, and now I can't stop noticing it. It's apparent in both night light and regular display modes. Do you think this is something they will send a replacement for?
It's very noticeable in apps using dark theme like XDA, reddit is fun, and imgur.

use that premium 24/7 support and report back how it was handled. we're all curious how it goes...
On first attempt, I used the chat function. They kept asking for a screenshot showing the red tint, but a screenshot doesn't work like that. Then after 45 min, I was told that this is taking too long and that I would get an email. I asked about a warranty replacement, and was told that is an option if this doesn't resolve.
I just want a warranty replacement...
I'll just call the Google Store during their business hours, obviously the 24/7 support and the Google Store are two different things.
Keep us posted.
I'll be calling the Google store first thing tomorrow, but in the mean time here is a picture of the issue. It's much more apparent in real life, but you can see the right side of the screen is darker than the left.
Just a quick update, they are sending me a replacement device. Hopefully the replacement doesn't have issues!
Good call. Yea that looks pretty bad, I would have returned it in a heartbeat.
Let us know how the replacement is. I have a XL and the top half has a pinkish hue. I'm debating if I should exchange it or not. I have noticed it on every device I've ever had with Amoled to a certain extent or another. It's for sure not as bad as other devices I've had. I'm debating getting it replaced. I'm just worried if I do the next one will have it worse, or a different issue that's worse. But for the amount of $ we paid for the phone it should be perfect IMO. I'll tolerate it on a $400 device.. not a close to $1000 device ($946 to be exact with tax)
Dunno. Ide exchange. I have had perfect amoleds on my note 5 and 7. Its possible to get a near perfect one.

I wouldn't worry about getting charged... there were a LOT of 6Ps that got exchanged for the same defect and I never heard of anyone getting charged. I went through 4 Nexus 6Ps before giving up on the lotto and getting a 5X. The issue seems way less prevalent this time around, but OF COURSE my Pixel has an uneven screen. Its not as bad as any of the 6Ps I had, but I've had my Pixel since Monday and I just can't live with it. I ordered my replacement yesterday. So far, everyone that has gotten a replacement between here and the XL forum they have been defect free! Fingers crossed.

I have to wonder myself how you guys use your mobiles. Not ONE of my mobiles since the iPhone 3GS
hade any "slowdowns"! How? Very simpel. I only install apps without adds. I only install apps I really use. I dont root. I always install latest updates and watch what sites I visit with the browser. And last but not least I setup each mobile as new. I never use smartswitch or backups. When u root please be sure you know exactly what you do, else SLOWDOWNS!
Curved screen is a huge fail. I was afraid it would be fragile, and sure enough, broke on the curved edge. Since samsung stopped making flat screens my next phone will not be a super fragile samsung again.
You guys bashing sound kind of ridiculous. Saying a two-generations old phone isn't as good as the current one just seems odd. I had the Note5, Note7, S7e, and now a S8+. The S8+ is spectacular and I've had no issues with it whatsoever except for Bixby which was supposed to be a key feature being MIA. If you're having individual issues that's fine but to ridicule the phone because of whatever you're going through just makes you seem out of sync.

It is funny how any phone you buy, there is a forum full of complaints; and within those complaints there are several who broke their phone, and blame the device as being "fragile".
Buy a case. If you are super prone to accidents, get insurance for the device. Stop blaming the manufacturer for you mistake. I have never, ever broke a phone, and I am not exactly easy on them. I get a decent case, and sometimes (like the s8+), I get accident coverage.
This is no different than my buddy, who bought a brand new car years ago, and never cleaned the inside or out, nor did he wax the vehicle the paint or condition the interior leather. Now he blames Ford for the condition of his vehicle...yet my vehicle is older and looks almost new.
I love this phone.
