I don't see where Ollie is claiming that this device is great for the majority of people. He's stated more than once that, for his particular likes and needs, these phones serve his purpose.
If they don't serve yours, that's fine, but I'm not sure why you've made it your mission to try and convert the world. You may not be a fanboy, but you're acting like the "anti-fanboy." I don't think anyone here doubts that you completely hate Samsung and Touchwiz. You've made your point, but just because you hate it doesn't mean that other people do.
I have the Note 4 and I don't have the same complaints that you have about it. I do have other complaints particular to my own personal use of the device, but I don't expect you to agree with the issues I have. It's served me well in spite of those things, but I'll be moving to another OEM when I'm ready to upgrade because I like change.
