Hey everyone! 

As you noticed today Samsung announced the Galaxy Note 5. I watched the announcement at work while it was going on.  Here are some specs on it! 

• Android 5.1 Lollipop, TouchWiz
• 5.7inch Quad-HD Super Amoled (2560×1440)
• Exynos 7420 octa-core (2.1GHz quad + 1.5GHz quad) 64bit, 14nm
• 4GB of RAM
• 32 GB storage (No SD card slot) 
• Non-removable 3,000 mAh battery with Fast Charging
• 16MP rear camera F1.9 lens and OIS (optical image stabilization)
• 5MP front-facing camera
• WiFi N, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, GPS and NFC
• 153.2 x 76.1 x 7.6mm
• 171g
• Wireless charging
• SPen
• 4G LTE enable

Rogers will be selling it for $359.99 on a 2-year term, $860 no-term  and the reservation system will be open as of August 14th. 

Rogers will be releasing this device ON August 21st in 32GB sapphire black it seems but hopefully they add the more GB later on. 

If you have any questions or concerns please post ANYTHING about the Note 5 and reservations here please and i will be able to assist you with any questions you have! 

Thanks! 🙂

Hello @jkffghjfghjfgjh

I do wonder if they will ship them out quickly tonight or maybe there will be another issue just like with the Note 4 last year where it was shipped out a couple days later.

Another possibility is system update issues which Rogers has had plenty of in the past. Phones could already be at or on there way to stores and the system just hasn't uploaded the changes.

I already have a share everything plan, does that mean I won't get the free charger when I go get the phone?

[junior5555]

Does anyone have theire status changed to "in progress"?

[junior5555]

Im number 34 and it still says "open" starting to belive i wont get it tomorrow!!!

[junior5555]

When i got the s6 edge i was already on a share and i did get the wireless the chance are yes you will

[Samina]

Anyone know why they haven't shipped out devices yet? I might just call a bunch of different Rogers stores to see if they have it in stock, since I'm still #2 on the reservation list..

[junior5555]

This is what i just saw on rogers site "Reserve online

Reserve and purchase your Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ or Samsung Galaxy Note 5 online (while supplies last) to qualify. This promotion is not redeemable in-store.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ and Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will be available for purchase starting August 21. Reservations will be shipped soon afterwards.

SEE FULL DETAILS" i think the ones that are reserved will be shipped after tomorrow and will not be available on launch day! I will try going to the rogers store to see if they are getting any tomorrow.

[junior5555]

I dont think it has anything to do with rogers. Im slowly losing faith in samsung lol

[Samina]

I mean I have talked to a 3rd party store (WoW Mobile) and he told me the only stock he's getting tomorrow for the Note 5 is with Telus lol. We'll see..

Hello @Samina

Try calling and see. Maybe the reservation system isn't updated but I don't know.

Hello @junior5555

Honestly Samsung has done this before with the Note 4 and year. Rogers didn't release it until a few days after. My work has them in Stock though.

[Meowmix]

Hello @Fabledsky

Yes u still get the free wireless charger 🙂

[junior5555]

So no the one that are reserved will be shipped AFTER launch day!

[Meowmix]

Hello @junior5555

It could well be. This happened last year again with Samsung

[jkffghjfghjfgjh]

I'll be calling all stores in my area. If I find one in stock at a store I'm going to be pretty . .

They ask us for a 40 dollar "reservation fee" and then can't even get it to me on launch day??? What is the point. All i know is they better not have any in stock....

[junior5555]

by the note 5 image on rogers site if you click on GET IT NOW  it say it there. it will be shipped after launch day!!!!

[junior5555]

whats the point of offering reservation??????

[Samina]

Wow, that sounds like a pretty useless reservation system... Anyways I called Rogers and spoke to 3 different reps and they can't really do anything. All they said is that it should ship soon.

[jkffghjfghjfgjh]

I guess the bloatware is taking longer to load onto the phones than originally anticipated....
