Great phone but....
The phone itself is amazing, arrived on excellant condition.. update with android 8.. the only bad thing, it only came with the phone, charger and s-pen... its advertised it comes with everything the new phone does.. happy with the phone itself, but disappointed with not receiving all the gear.. that's why I only rated it 4 out of 5

Ok Phone
So i did spme research on the Note 8 before purchasing. Apparently, i should've done more. Its ok. The camera quality is a bit better than most but no bells & whistles. Ive had the phone over a year and it just recently had a huge update making it a bit more something to be excited about. Some new features were added that arent really a big deal but make a difference(too many to list). What really has me disappointed is i purchased this phone unlocked from carriers and its not. This phone is NOT compatible with Verizon so i have had to remain stuck with AT&T who service sucks. I think i would like this phone more if i were able to use it as i had intended and not stuck on AT&T. I had purchased this unlocked phone for the purpose of switching carriers so this was a huge waste.

Amazing phone
I've had a note 4 for years and finally upgraded to the note 8 and couldn't be happier! This is a very nice phone, lots of features, amazing battery life and easy to hold.
