Samsung Galaxy Note 8 64GB
The new 6.3-inch Samsung Galaxy Note8 resembles the S8 Plus phone and the processor and many other specs are the same. Note 8 does contain some new features like the 12 MP dual camera and the more sophisticated pen.
The dual rear cameras contain a wide-angle lens and a tele lens. This combination yields ten times better digital zoom and twice the optical zoom. Both cameras support optical image stabilisation, which results in crisper photos. The performance under low-light conditions is especially noticeable. The dual cameras enable the Live focus feature, whereby it's possible to zoom in on an objected located close while the background remains blurry. This feature makes Note 8's cameras behave like a system digital camera.
One of the main selling points of the phone is its productivity-enhancing capabilities. The pen plays an imperative role and extends the functionality of Note 8 beyond notes taking and drawing. It's possible to take notes in screen-lock mode thanks to the Always on display also found on Galaxy S8. A click on the pin icon positioned in the lower right corner of the screen gives instant access to a maximum of 100 notes. Hence, it's easy to check items on the shopping list while shopping in-store.
The Note 8 phone sports 6 GB of RAM memory, 64 GB of storage and comes with dual sim slots. It's powered by Samsung's own Exynos 8895 processor. The battery has a capacity of 3,300 mAH and the phone is waterproof with an IP68 rating.
A newer model Samsung Galaxy Note 9 128GB was released in May 2018.

No carrier IP Voice support / uncertain Samsung Pay MST
Stellar phone, Android 8.x, BT5.0, and it works on T-Mo voice and LTE no issues. One clarification, however, that should be noted in the product listing here is that (in my case) the International model 950F I got was from the UAE, therefore, it has their countrys firmware on it.
Great Phone
I've had the Note 8 for over a year and would not change it for anything! It has great features and every once in a while I learn something new on this phone. I recommend this phone or lets say I've recommended this phone to everyone I see or talk about phones.
Everything I Expected from Samsung
I had a Note 3 for years and absolutely loved it. Tmobile offered a great senior deal for the Note 8 so I decided to switch carriers and upgrade. So happy that I took the plunge! This phone is everything!! Sleek style, excellent screen clarity and apps, plus the best camera you can find.
Sleek Note 8
"AO is brilliant to buy from. Great prices. The Samsung Note 8 is an amazing phone. Absolutely love the phone. Thanks AO. "
Not what I had hoped for
I bought this because I wanted a bigger screen. I would have preferred wider not longer. I guess I'll have to go back to the competitor to get my ideal screen. The bixby button in a pain and useless to me. This is the first Samsung I did not like and now I'm stuck with it for 2 years,yay!- Realistic color
- nice camera
- Did not meet expectations
- screen to long and not wide enough
Good Product Failed by Company
The product has worked well after purchase but Samsung support was terrible and only after contacting CEO's office did the company start to try to resolve their failure to update their quick guide.
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Phone review: Galaxy Note 8 is powerful, pricey and soon-to-be-replaced
With the Galaxy Note 9 just around the corner, now's a bad time to buy a new Galaxy Note 8 -- wait for the Note 9 to go on sale and the Note 8's price will surely drop. The Galaxy Note 8 proved that Samsung could once again make a safe Note phone. Almost a year on, it's still an excellent device that lets you take portrait photos and use the stylus for writing, drawing and navigation. But Samsung is set to oust the Note 8 with the 2018 model. Rumor points to August 9 as the Galaxy Note 9 launch date (the 9 on 9, get it?), though we're still waiting for the official word.- The Galaxy Note 8 is still a terrific phone in 2018, with dual cameras and a boatload of stylus tricks
- It's currently the most feature-rich Android phone you can buy.
- Expensive by any measure, the Note 8 has more features than most people will need
- Samsung's portrait mode can be finicky
- The poorly placed fingerprint reader repeats the Galaxy S8's worst design flaw.
