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.

Galaxy Note 8 Review: Redemption Never Looked So Good
Is all of that worth about $80 to $100 more than the already large-and-in-charge Galaxy S8+ ? After living with the Note 8 for more than a week, I would say "yes."- Gorgeous 6.3-inch Infinity Display
- Fantastic dual cameras
- Fun and useful S Pen enhancements
- Handy App Pair feature
- Strong overall performance
- Very good battery life
- Awkward placement of fingerprint sensor
- A couple of early bugs
- Very pricey
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Review
Representing the current pinnacle of smartphone technology, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phone has everything that's great about the Galaxy S8, plus dual cameras and an S Pen stylus. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a no-brainer. It takes the Galaxy S8, the best phone of the year so far, and adds dual cameras, a better screen, and the beloved S Pen stylus. It fills the shoes of the dearly departed Note 7 elegantly, and is certainly the best phone for creative types—but only those for whom price is no object. That's because, at $930 for the T-Mobile model we reviewed, the Galaxy Note 8 is currently the most expensive flagship phone in the US. Pricing and Design Depending on your carrier, the Galaxy Note 8 is about $100 more than the Galaxy S8+. It's $31.67 per month over 30 months on AT&T ($950), $40 per month over 24 months on Sprint ($960), $930 on T-Mobile, or $40 per month over 24 months on Verizon ($960). An unlocked model is $929. Physically, the Galaxy Note 8 looks and feels like a larger Galaxy S8 (or, more to the point, an S8+). Its body is smooth, solid, and rounded. The screen has the very narrow bezels of the Galaxy S8, with slight sloping on the back...- High-quality, waterproof build
- Improved S Pen stylus
- Dual cameras
- Modem supports emerging networks
- Expensive
- Too big to work with current Gear VR headset
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (64GB, Black) - Excellent review
Samsung's new dual camera system sets the bar very high- It's the best camera phone I've used and it's everything a high-end phone should be. You can feel where the money's gone.
- The fingerprint scanner is hard to reach and the face/iris scanning alternatives are unreliable.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is unquestionably one of those devices that is greater than the sum of its parts. It's not just a powerful tool or a capable multimedia machine, it's a joy to use and it can do anything you'd expect any top-tier smartphone to do and so much more.
- Outstanding display
- Rich S Pen integration
- Excellent performance
- Impressive camera
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (64GB, Black) - Excellent review
Ultimately, we found ourselves able to get used to the massive size of the Note 8, and that’s because its size is big, but it isn’t so big that it’s completely unnatural. Sure, our pants were not super approving, and the moment you put this phone in a case, you’re aware that you’re carrying a bigger...- Massive and lovely screen Improved specs, The S Pen returns!, Still water resistant, Still includes a 3.5mm headset jack, Decent battery life at a little over a day, Improvements to camera and camera software, Iris scanning feels faster, Case in the box (yay?)
- Massive size, Fingerprint sensor placement isn’t fantastic (still), Expensive
Samsung Galaxy Note 8: Full, in-depth review
With the arrival of the Note 8, the brand has finally - and maybe inevitably - risen from the ashes to reclaim its past glory. A cutting contrast to the usual rigamarole of flagship products, it’s fair to say Samsung‘s Galaxy Note 8 exists in a very “unique” context.- S-Pen
- QHD+ Display
- Battery life burns down fast
- Exynos can't keep pace with Snapdragon

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.
Review Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 Smartphone
We spoke of a compromise solution in the precursor of Samsung's Galaxy Note II. Although the second Note's screen diagonal is bigger, we find it easier to categorize it now. The smaller width and the fact that smartphones currently seem to be getting bigger makes the Note II more of a smartphone...- Good workmanship
- Very big screen
- Powerful platform
- Viewing angle stable
- high-contrast screen
- Very long battery runtime
- Fairly good camera
- Wi-Fi for 2.4 and 5 GHz
- The courage to bridge the gap or
- better
- to fill the niche.
- Mediocre choice of materials, Averagely bright screen, Slight bluish cast, Limited mobility, No LTE, A higher-quality material impression and a bit more brightness
- LTE would be the icing on the cake
