Samsung has kicked it up a notch in the
aesthetics department as the Galaxy Note 5
borrows many design cues from its stylus-
free siblings. The phone looks premium, and
is on par with the HTCs and Apples of the
world. Samsung uses 7000-series
aluminium and Corning Gorilla Glass 4 for
the construction, which lends the Note 5 a
sturdy, yet attractive feel. Unlike the
Galaxy S6 Edge+ , whose screen curves
around the sides, the Note 5 has a more
subtle curved back. This leaves you with
sides wide enough to grip comfortably so
there's less chance of it slipping from your
hand. It's also easier to reach the power
and volume buttons
