Samsung releases the first Galaxy Note5 TV commercial: it's all about the new design and new S Pen

Samsung today released the very first Galaxy Note5 TV commercial. Unlike this official Note5 promo video, which is too long to show up on TV, the commercial is a 30-second lively clip that showcases some of the new handset's highlights, including its new metal-and-glass design, its multitasking capabilities, and the mighty S Pen stylus.

As you may have heard, Samsung improved the S Pen with features like auto-eject, the ability to write while the Note5's screen is off, Air Command on an screen, and the ability to write on PDF files.

Since earlier this week, when it was announced, the Galaxy Note5 can be pre-ordered in the US, where it will be launched on August 21 via all major American carriers. Off contract prices start at $700 (with T-Mobile being the carrier that's offering the most affordable Note5). You can see detailed pricing info here.

While Samsung won't release the Note5 in Europe this year, the device can already be bought in Taiwan. If you want to take a closer look at the brand new Samsung smartphone/phablet, check out our Galaxy Note5 unboxing, and out Galaxy Note5 hands-on.
