Hey Adam been forum whoring on the note4 and trying different stuff.
Can report a few things
Some have bad batteries but really depends upon how many apps people run in the background.
Another issue is some devices who struggle with 3g or 4g in signal use a lot of battery just finding the signal can confirm my device works longer on GSM but not really much difference I suspect that some have bad  chargers, cables or bad batteries. 
The other issues are the gap but not as much I thought when checking others.
The Camera on some can't take fast shutter speeds more hardware issues than software.
A new one is the return button is not sensitive enough but once again a small percentage.
Mines really good but an exy import 8 cores which seem to perform better due to less throttling heat issues.
Only thing I don't like which is software related is the keyboard ime mines Asian and keeps asking to change ime inputs in notification area nothing serious I just ignore it.
The fast charger option is unbelievable quick it can get to 60.% IN AN HOUR.
my usage times have averaged 12 to 16 hrs on one charge.
I like nova launcher and can switch between two OS with no lag. 
Wireless  Q charging is good and not that expensive. 
TBf there is more discussing about SD and Exy variants and which ones better?
Good stuff
I can long hold down the return button and brings up short cuts quick.
Can swipe lower buttons without screen swipes.
It picks up my door bell ring so if in garden It senses frequency of the door bell lol.
Opening 10 apps at the same time no lag.
You can copy and paste multiple  screens without  getting  frustrated or lost.
You can wake the device via galaxy voice or Google voice.
Using the air pen is a hoot.
VR gear wow that's all I can say.
Go for it but check out those uncommon issues if you have them exchange the unit.  :smiley:

One more thing be aware of fakes for sale check ime no against the device or network.  Fakes have been sold to nearly full asking prices demand is out striping supply.
