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
Bixby needs work
Difficult to operate one-handed
The price

High price tag in context to similar devices
Nonpremium built materials
Bloatwareladen
Plastic build
No 4G option
Display could be better
Expensive compared to similarly specced WiFi devices (Nexus 7
IPad Mini
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
Great Display, S Pen, Live Photos can take amazing portrait shots
Price, Battery Life
A marvellous device that can handle almost everything you throw at it and is easily one of the best smartphone for 2017, although on the pricier side.(previously published in issue December 2017)...

So the bottom line is, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a really good phone - with strong performance, useful S-Pen capabilities, multiple biometric security options, that IP68 water and dust feature (even the S-Pen!), superb camera modules and good battery l...
Abstract: Another year, another smartphone camera showdown, but this year is different. The iPhone 8 Plus and Galaxy Note8 cameras are incrementally better, as expected. But the software plays a surprisingly big role in this year's upgrade.The two smartphones both...
Let's face it – with the price tag of RM3,999, it's enough to scare away people already. I mean seriously – that price tag is not something to be taken lightly. Though, with great price comes great user experience – as the Galaxy Note8 checks boxes on my...

Abstract: Samsung Galaxy Note8, one of the best smartphone ever made by Samsung. The Galaxy Note 8 is available to be purchased at RM3999 here in Malaysia. It may be identical to the Galaxy S8 but with just a slight changes, the whole experience of using the Not...
Inarguably beautiful, Powerful enough to run most tasks smoothly, Rear camera setup is good, IP68 S Pen allows for underwater doodling, Plenty of biometric locks
Fingerprint sensor is poorly positioned, Sets a new high for smartphone prices
The Galaxy Note8 is no doubt a really good phone. Its footprint is a lot smaller than its display size would have you believe, and the display itself is a marvel in terms of visual appeal. You even get to choose your resolution to shift between greater en...
Abstract: We are lucky enough to get our hands on the Midnight Black edition of the Galaxy Note8 and we must say, it is a sight to behold.Although it eerily resembles the Galaxy S8+, the Galaxy Note8 is of course a device on its own (and rightfully so with its RM3...
