I've stuck with the Note 5 for quite some time. It's pretty much close to perfect. Solid battery, good camera, gorgeous screen (even the S4's screen is beautiful), snappy software thanks to 7.0, and lack of side glass has me worrying less

I have a ZTE Axon 7 and I love it.... but I wish a lot of these phone manufacturers gave more update support. Android Phones only get supported with updates for about 2 years while IPhones can get up to 4-5 years of support. I'm worrying that my phone won't get Android 8 (Oreo) since it shipped with 6. However... I was looking at the Note 5 and found one for 450 dollars and was impressed with the specs and the camera. The fact that it's not a car bomb also makes the phone sound really appealing. I think you should be good with the phone for a couple of years.

My first phone was a simply flip phone. Until then I stuck with it until I was told to get with the times lol

Even nowadays I avoid social media like the plague and restrict my phone to what is needed. Still, using it as a tool is very useful. GPS, flashlight, camera, texting, calling, small games, alarms, pdf viewing, etc. using a smart phone currently is the difference between living a productive and not productive life in many people's cases. i won't need to update my phone until 2019 probably
