Galaxy Note5

Product Overview

The Samsung Galaxy Note5 represents a significant evolution from its predecessor, the Galaxy Note4, enhancing both design and performance to meet the demands of modern smartphone users. One of the most notable changes is the design, as the Note5 adopts a more premium aesthetic with its glass and metal construction. The front and back glass panels create a sleek, seamless look, while the unibody design allows for a more comfortable grip. In contrast, the Note4 featured a plastic back and a more angular design, which can feel less refined in comparison.The display on the Note5 has been upgraded to a 5.7-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display, retaining the same resolution as the Note4 but featuring improved color accuracy and brightness. The screen edges are slightly curved, providing a more immersive viewing experience. Performance has seen a substantial boost thanks to the inclusion of Samsung's Exynos 7420 processor, which offers faster processing speeds and improved power efficiency over the Snapdragon 805 found in the Note4. This results in smoother multitasking and gaming experiences without significant battery drainage.The camera system has also been enhanced, with the Note5 sporting a 16-megapixel rear camera with improved optical image stabilization and faster autofocus. The front-facing camera has been upgraded to 5 megapixels, making it ideal for selfies and video calls, while low-light performance has been enhanced compared to the Note4's camera.A key feature introduced in the Note5 is the improved S Pen, which now seamlessly ejects from the device with a simple press and allows for more advanced functionalities. Enhanced pressure sensitivity and new features within the S Pen software, such as Smart Select and Screen Write, provide users with a richer note-taking and creative experience.On the software front, the Note5 runs on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop out of the box, featuring Samsung's TouchWiz UI enhancements. New features such as a better notifications interface and enhanced app multitasking streamline user experience, contrasting with the older version offered in the Note4.Battery life remains a focus, with the Note5 housing a non-removable 3000mAh battery that supports fast charging both wired and wireless, an upgrade from the previous model's removable battery. This empowers users with quicker recharging times and greater convenience.In summary, the Samsung Galaxy Note5 advances on the Note4 in design quality, performance, camera capabilities, S Pen functionality, software enhancements, and charging technology, making it a more powerful and versatile device for productivity and multimedia consumption.

How to prepare to sell your Galaxy Note5

Selling your Galaxy Note5 can be a great way to earn extra cash while ensuring your device gets a second life. To maximize your resale value and ensure a smooth transaction, follow this step-by-step guide.

Step 1: Determine your Galaxy Note5’s Functionality & Condition

Grab your Galaxy Note5 and determine which Eco Toreda Condition Standard best describes it.

  • Screen & Body: Look for scratches, dents, cracks, or discoloration.
  • Buttons & Ports: Test all buttons, charging ports, and any other connectors.
  • Battery Health: In general, a battery with 80% or more battery charging capacity is considered Good. If yours is less than 80%, choose Poor Battery.
  • Performance: Ensure your Galaxy Note5 powers on, responds correctly, and connects to Wi-Fi/Bluetooth.
  • Accessories: Grab the original Galaxy Note5 accessories (charger, power cable) are available and functional.
Step 2: Remove Personal Data from Your Device

Before handing over your Galaxy Note5, erase all personal data to protect your privacy. Follow these general steps:

  1. Back Up Your Data: Use cloud storage or a computer to save important files, contacts, and photos.
  2. Sign Out of Accounts: Deactivate any connected accounts (e.g., Apple ID, Google, Samsung, Microsoft) to prevent activation locks.
  3. Factory Reset your Galaxy Note5: Navigate to the settings menu and select “Reset” or “Erase All Content.” Ensure the process is complete before shutting down the device.
  4. Remove External Storage (If Applicable): Take out SD cards or SIM cards before packaging.
Step 3: What to Bring

We'll pack and ship your Galaxy Note5 for you but remember to bring the following items:

  • Power Cable & Charger: The original Galaxy Note5 adapter and cable add value and make the device more appealing.
  • Original Box & Packaging (If Available): Providing the original box improves presentation and protection.
  • Accessories: Include any extras that came with the Galaxy Note5, such as a stylus, dock, or protective case.
Step 4: Final Touches Before Selling

A clean and well-presented device makes a big difference. Take the time to do the following:

  • Remove Stickers & Decals: Any personal markings or stickers should be peeled off carefully.
  • Clean the Device: Wipe down the screen and body with a microfiber cloth and an alcohol-based cleaner.
  • Check All Ports: Inspect charging, audio, and other ports to ensure they’re free of dust and debris.
