Samsung's Note5 emerges victorious from our blind comparison, smacks the iPhone 6 Plus on the head

Instead of sitting judge ourselves, however, this time around we thought we'd go for one of our popular blind comparisons and see what you thought before weighing in (in a separate piece). So we labeled the images in a way that you wouldn't know which is which (to avoid bias) and arranged them for you to judge them. Well, voting has now been closed, and we're ready to share the results with you, which are unanimous in that Samsung's Note5 produces more compelling images than the iPhone 6 Plus according to you. In fact, the total score it accumulated beats that of the Note 4 and the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro, too. Here's the final split:
1. Samsung Galaxy Note5 — 5,642 votes
2. Samsung Galaxy Note 4 — 4,526 votes
3. Xiaomi Mi Note Pro — 1,359 votes
4. Apple iPhone 6 Plus — 1,020 votes
