i am surprised by some of the "look & feel" changes Samsung makes..

can someone undertand why?

what complaints do you have?
voice them..
perhaps we can all share and undertand why .. or find solutions ..

==================

i will start it off

the camera - a very often useful function - flash on/off is always hidden with no way to bring the icon to the front (was not the case on Note 1 / 2 .. and most other phones)

similar for timer ..
==================

with update to lollipop with long press of the power button - no longer have the universal sound options - MUTE | VIBRATE | SOUND

why did they remove it?

was veey useful .. say you are taking pictures and you want the "camera" sound .. or you do not want it .. was easy to on / off it ..
