Despite the big, glitzy announcement at IFA 2015 back in September, Samsung's flagship phablet, the Galaxy Note 5 never actually made it to the UK. But now it appears that could be about to change.
Samsung didn't leave the UK out entirely, giving us the splendid Galaxy S6 Edge+ instead - but for those committed to the S Pen the lack of a Note 5 was a big disappointment.
Gadgette reports that the monster handset will be available in the UK after all in January - and cites a secretive, but supposedly reliable source to back up this claim. Samsung, of course, hasn't officially confirmed or denied it - so take this with as many pinches of salt as you deem necessary.
Big on size, big on features
It's worth bearing in mind Samsung also hasn't officially ruled out a UK release for the Note 5, but leaving it four months since launch does seem a little odd.
The Galaxy Note 5 boasts a 5.7-inch QHD display, octa-core processor, 4GB of RAM, 16MP rear camera and 3000mAh battery - they only real differences between it and the S6 Edge+ are the stylus and the lack of the dual curved screen.
In our Note 5 review, we particularly liked the design of the phone, the stylus and its high specs, although we were less keen on the lack of a microSD slot and the price tag.
