Unfortunately, you have to connect it with a PC or a laptop, and if your previous settings with you laptop is to transfer files. If the laptop doesn't allow you to transfer files then you have to unlock it change the settings from the notification bar. However, as your device is locked so there isn't a chance of transferring.

Other method is to use samsung Account to unlock it. If you have your old Samsung account linked to the note 5, then you can still unlock. If not then there isn't a way to unlock.

Final method is using lost my phone by Google. However, there isn't much you can do but, wipe your data and make your device sound like a alarm.

If you non of the above have worked out. Then please, send a message to samsung by the support tab to help you out. If this thread was helpful, consider up-voting it.

No need for a laptop or PC! If you have you email and password, you can go to google Find my phone, or samsung: Find my mobile online site. From there you can unlock the device
