Upgrade to the Note 5 from a Note 3

I was putting off this upgrade, as my previous Note, the Note 3 is working just fine and I was not looking forward to the $250.00 upgrade cost. I got an email from Best Buy with an offer for the upgrade only costing $49.99. :) I picked it up later that day and spent about 3 hours that night setting it all up.

Thoughts:

1- The new screen is so clear. I thought the Note 3 was great, this new Note 5 is soo much clearer.

2- The camera looks promising. As an ILC owner, I am very particular. While the camera on the Note 3 was good in daylight, don't ask for anything else. The camera on the Note 5 is very promising and even has 4k video.

3- I am not happy about an SD Card slot not being available. :(

4- Mic Jack being on the bottom is great.

5- The "menu" button being replaced by the "recent" button is annoying. I have one app that has no internal menu tab, and is completely unusable. I much prefer the Note 3's layout, it will take some time to get used to.

Overall a great upgrade, minus the SD Card slot being removed and the soft key change.
