I have an iPhone 6 and my girlfriend has a Note 5, and I've taken pictures extensively with both. Even for on-screen viewing, the Note 5 has noticeably better image quality.

All comparisons on the internet have the same conclusion as well. Not to mention, the Note 5 has greater dynamic range in each shot, allowing me more versatility in Lightroom if I need to post-process.

I'd argue that an iPhone can still keep up with a Note 4 due to better WB and quicker AF, but the Note 5/S6 is a different beast altogether.

Next gen Samsungs should come out by summer, but of course at a steeper price. It's a good idea to wait and see how big the improvement is. In my case for Apple, I upgraded my iPhone 5 to an iPhone 6 instead of a 6S since the difference was very minimal. I'll just get an iPhone 7 this Christmas since that will surely come with a new design, and hopefully a better camera.
