This bit is bound to draw in mixed (and hopefully not violent) reactions, particularly  from those who are loyal to Apple's line of devices.

It is a fact that the iPhone 6 Plus is expected to be out soon but one cannot overlook the fact that Samsung may have something worthy to check out with the Samsung Galaxy Note 5.

The Samsung phablet is something that the company is pinning its hopes on as far as rebounding from its slumping sales performance is concerned; and judging by the device's features, there could be a big chance.

Most of them seem to be better than what Apple has to offer.

Leading the pack is the S-Pen stylus which makes it easier to draw and sign documents from the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. It may not be a big deal for people who have phones but from a businessman's perspective, the accessory does come in handy at times.

Wireless charging is another innovation that Samsung has been banking on and the Galaxy Note 5 is expected to come with it. Such provides an alternative way of charging up the device over the usual wired charging, which can charge the device in reportedly just 90 minutes.

Thanks to a near field communication (NFC) chip, Android devices can account for easier payment transactions with contactless payment. Apple has its own version with Apple Pay but such has yet to get off the ground. While it does seem premature to count the iPhone 6 Plus out just yet, Samsung has the lead for now.

The powerful 16-megapixel camera of the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is something that potential Galaxy Note 5 users are bound to love. Featuring ISOCELL camera sensors, photos taken via the phablet's camera allows it to be shot on RAW, which gives users time to edit it rather than see it processed by installed apps. Shutter speed can also be adjusted while the 5.7-inch display should make it easier for users to make the necessary edits when needed before being opened on apps.

Would these features be enough to convince you that the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 is a better choice than the iPhone 6? The Samsung phablet does come with an impressive array of features and hopefully Samsung's fortunes can benefit from it. Check out the video below:
