Samsung's best camera x2
Fast with 6GB of RAM
The Galaxy Note 8 tops Samsung's already excellent S8 and S8 Plus with dual cameras and a boatload of stylus tricks. It's the most feature-rich Android phone you can buy

It's the best camera phone I've used and it's everything a highend phone should be. You can feel where the money's gone
Extremely thin bezel means you get a 6.3in edgetoedge screen
But the phone doesn't feel uncomfortable to use in one hand
The phone lets you open two apps at the same time
Using half the screen per app so you watch a video while composing an email

How long will the battery life be?
It'll be EXPENSIVE
Fingerprint magnet
Battery life isn't class leading
The price is high
Fingerprint scanner placement needs a rethink
Galaxy S8+ a serious consideration if S Pen doesn't appeal

Bixby needs work
Difficult to operate one-handed

High price tag in context to similar devices
Nonpremium built materials

Plastic build
No 4G option
Display could be better
Expensive compared to similarly specced WiFi devices (Nexus 7

Asus Padfone 2)
Expensive
Troubling battery life
Painfully expensive
Weaker battery life than S8 Plus
Display not as sharp as some rivals
Average media battery life
SO expensive
Easily-smudged rear
Very expensive
Overly similar to S8 Plus
Small battery
‘Infinitely' expensive
Battery life held back
Weak speaker
An expensive phone
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
Erittäin kallis
Akunkesto ei ole kummoinen
Heikko kaiutin
Galaxy S9+ a serious consideration if S Pen doesn't appeal
Massive and perhaps somewhat unwieldy
Awkward to hold one-handed
Facial recognition is hit and miss
Do you really need a device this big
That's awkward to operate one-handed? Bixby is also a work-in-progress and
Oh
The price. The eye-watering price
Battery life could be better
Live Focus needs some work
Poor fingerprint sensor placement
Only Android 7.0
No USBPD
Fingerprint scanner placement awkward
Very big for pockets
Location of fingerprint sensor
The fingerprint scanner is hard to reach and the face/iris scanning alternatives are unreliable
The battery life wasn't as long as some other flagship smartphones on the market
Display suffers from fingerprint marks and the screen is hard to see in bright light

The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is comfortable to hold and has the best-looking small tablet screen yet. Writing with the S Pen feels natural and is preferred over typing on a tablet screen. Storage can be expanded via microSD, and the Watch On feature has p...
The $399 price is a lot for a small tablet, no matter its features. It's not as thin or as light as the iPad Mini, and some people won't appreciate the highly saturated look of the OS. Also, its face buttons sometimes get in the way and there are occas...
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a stunning tablet with a truly useful stylus, but it's not worth $400 unless you're an artist or prefer pen input.
Great suite of applications, Thin body and light, compact design, S Pen is extremely functional given the screen size, Powerful
Mediocre screen resolution, Plastic build won't appeal to all, Ergonomics of using as a phone questionable, Expensive
