Got my 64GB MicroSDXC and slim TPU Case today
my Note 4 is feeling new again.
Never thought I'd get this much memory in a damn phone
got 91GB of memory, 36GB of which I have used

Only 64 gb? That's so like 2013?
No memory card in my Nexus (obviously) but thinking of getting 200 gb for my tablet

Lol, Aussie
MicroSD cards are expensive down here, I wanted a 128GB, but the cheapest I could find was around R1000 ~ $72USD for a damn memory card.
I don't even want to know what a 200GB MicroSD would cost down here
The weakening Rand (ZAR) isn't exactly helping with tech prices.

I was only joking tsepz , I know the 128gb is a bit expensive - if you can believe it I bought mine when it was even more expensive . Here it costs £45-59 so I guess it is the same price like over there . The 200gb one is £150 so I am holding off from buying that one for the moment - also I don't know whilst I would like it 128 gb is plenty of space already , I don't need to rush u too the price is more acceptable
Any way good to hear you are enjoying the Note 4
But off topic I finally played with S6 edge last night and it looks stunning . Such a shame about the lack of sd card . Still can't believe they won't bring the Note 5 in these parts of the world

I know Aussie mate, but I just couldn't justify the 128GB, I was close to getting it, but in the end couldn't.
Do you mean the S6 Edge+? I have yet to try it, but if the normal S6 Edge is anything to go by, the Edge+ must also be a stunner, as you said.
I must say, I am now getting a little put off Samsung, they have royally messed up in terms of software.
I have just updated my Note 4 to 5.1.1, its a hell of a lot faster, recent apps lag is gone and the whole phone just feels great BUT, the RAM Management is just so aggressive. Despite the phone having +600MB free RAM even with large apps running, it auto force closes apps a lot. For the 1st time ever it force closed Opera Max, which works in the background as a Data Compression Tool.
In 4.4.4 and 5.0.1, it never did that, but has done it 3 times in the last 24hours on 5.1.1, I have now set Opera Max to be Pinned in the notification bar.
Running WhatsApp, FB, Instagram, Chrome, Tapatalk, Opera Mini, Twitter, Opera Max and Messenger can result in a few of them being closed. Really sucks.
I think I'll be jumping on that Xperia Z5 Premium after all, as Samsung are ruining what is a great phone.

An update WRT 5.1.1:
I have recently updated to the latest German DBT 5.1.1 and they seem to have sorted out the aggressive RAM Management, multitasking is such a pleasure once again, and with the r cent apps delay gone, the Note 4 is incredibly fast, this is what 5.0.1 should have been, even battery life seems better, and the phone in general just a whole lot more responsive from the Camera to SPen usage. Thoroughly loving it.
Doubt I'll be moving from this phone anytime soon, but that 1st 5.1.1 FW really had me thinking I should, it seems Samsung have realized their mistake though, let's see how future FW go, at this point nothing in 2015 is really worth the the move from a Note 4, most of the phones actually fall short of the Note 4 incl. Samsung's own 2015 flagships in some areas.
I hope,the Note 6 bring s back MicroSD support, I seriously cherish it in my Note 4.

Did you have a similar experience Hans?
I guess there is bound to be some lemons around, my Note 4's display is near perfect, colors are vivid and it's super smooth. The Note 5 uses a similar panel, with a few upgrades, but it seems to be mostly the same.

I had one with low quality display but the second was perfect. (green to pink hue by shifting the device)
The color shift was there but in my second Note 4 was almost imperceptible.
Oh! The camera on my second was better too... (even with the same sensor)
I only had two things to complain:
- GPU (brazilian is the Exynos version)
- Samsung sh*t bloatware
Everything else was absolutely great in every aspect.
Battery, sound through headphones, build, signal of GSM and wifi, calling quality...
P.S.: I'm a Sony fan who had every Xperia Z* flagship till Note 4!
