Should I get this, the Note 5, or the regular S6?

Not too sure which one I should get. I'm going in tomorrow to upgrade my phone, and I'm wondering which one I should get. I'm not too sure whether or not to get the Note 5, as I'm not sure if it would fit in my pocket or not. Anyone have these devices and would like to tell me if they like it or not?

Note 5.

S6's battery life isn't up to snuff, and the S6E+ is harder to protect with the curved screen. The curved screen offers almost no actual real world functionality if you are already familiar with a phone. The note 5 has all of the advantages of the better battery and fast charging, plus you get the pen.

Note all the way.

Love my edge+
Battery life is very good, but could be better I'm sure.
It gives you a very big screen without feeling like you're holding a tablet, which is why I chose it over the Note. Pen is interesting, but I don't think most users actually use it. In the end I think you have to hold them both and go with your gut.

Thanks for all of your opinions! I got the edge+ and the only thing that I'm mad at is that Verizon loads this phone up with a ton of apps that I'm never going to use. I can't uninstall them, only disable them, which just hides them from the apps drawer. All of these apps take up a total of about 8.3 GB on my storage, with 8.4 GB for the system files. That's half of my storage taken up from day 1. I'm just waiting for a root method for this phone then I'm installing a custom rom to clear up that space on my storage...
