Just had an email about customs fees of 49 quid , paid and its left Kuwait about 20mins ago.

That's an odd place to have to pay customs fees, I paid when it got to Germany.

Oh well it's on its way that's the main thing.

Is that from DHL?

Paul11 · 5 Nov 2015 at 17:37

mine seems to have left Kuwait. but i not had a request for payment

Muska · 5 Nov 2015 at 17:39

I signed up for text alerts on the shipping and it came as a text message.

I logged into DHL website with the waybill number and payed straight away. It was definitely legit.

Battery holds up fairly well in this test

It's quite a long way behind the Note 4 in battery life (1hr 30mins less approx, i wonder why they didn't go for the same battery in the 5 but a permanent version of it.

note 4 ran a decent Snapdragon 805, nice and cool too

tbh i never saw 6hrs plus on the few Note 4s that i have had in the past.

I have got within 10mins of 6 hours screen on time on my Note 4 since 5.1.1 came out.

Before that is was between 4-5hrs.

I'm finding the phone a bit to big and just thinking of selling and going to a 6s now??

Shame because the features are awesome!!

Got this case today

In grey. Matches the titanium note 5 perfectly. Very nice quality too

Dont forget to enable the mini mode in the display options.
Its off by default but once its on just press the home button 3 times to shrink the screen.

Makes using the phone with one hand much easier.

Got this yesterday http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=121745880851&globalID=EBAY-GB

Fitted sides and back only, it's a wet install but only need wetting slightly. No problems at all and now I have good protection, can sleep better at night now
