    Best phone I ever had

    This is absolutely worth it, Samsung definitely did a good job with this phone! It's fast, sleek, the black version looks great, colors are vivid. The camera is one of the best cameras you will see on a phone. This phone definitely is better than getting the iPhone X. At first I though the phone would be too big but it is a great size and the screen is awesome! The only thing I wish Samsung would do for the next note is get another speaker on the phone because one speaker on the bottom of the phone is not enough, but other than that everything else is great!

    Best SmartPhone out right now!

    This phone is truly amazing. What are you getting with this this phone? Well you get a phone with the best display on a phone to ever exist which is perfect for watching video and just everyday usage. It's a super bright phone so it's easy to use in direct sunlight. The dual camera is amazing and offers live focus which is basically the I phones portrait mode but better. This phone comes with 6gbs of ram which keeps your phone running super fast at all times. The spen offers many great features that come in handy in everyday use. This phone is simply amazing and in my opinion is the phone of the year and now the deal of the year due to the 250$ off discount which makes it 320$ less then the iPhone x

    Screen broke in the first two months, even with insurance it cost $200 to replace (cannot fix the screen on the Note, phone must be replaced) All that for a stylus... have had and loved many Samsung phones in the past, not pleased with this purchase.

    i wish i would have not got a curved edge phone. Don't really see that advantage. I'm a 50 year old male with mild finger joint problems. So may be that is way i have trouble seeing it a good feature.

    I have owned a note since the 2 first was realeased and loved them all. This is by far the worst one. Camera is ok, not all they said it would, types with spaces constantly, freezes at least once a day, major bug issue! Biggest phone purchase regret!

    This thing is slow. It constantly has to be rebooted. It loses connection to the towers all the time. I took off auto connect wifi to see if that was interfering but still loses connection. Hate this phone.

    A big leap forward in device performance/quality

    I have been using Samsung devices since the Note 2. I've had the Note 2, 3 6 edge + and now the Note 8. This is by far my favorite of them all. I took a break from the S Pen with the edge plus and am glad to have it back with many improved features. I was worried that the screen would be too tall. but now that I have it, that isn't a problem at all. I love the new wider aspect ratio. it allows me to have more screen, more effectively use split screen mode and really get the most out of multitasking with this device. I preordered the Note as soon as soon as it was announced. Best Buy offered by far the best deal. $150 off for preorders, then the carrier promotions which for Verizon was a trade in credit of about $330 for my s6 edge+. on top of that the Note currently comes with a free wireless charging pad and 128 gb sd card OR a 360 degree camera from Samsung. I just submitted my offer request for the charging pad and sd card as I don't see myself using the camera. All in all, it is a great deal in a world where cellphone service providers are quickly moving away from subsidizing phone prices. In regards to the Note 8, screen quality is amazing. The Note has one of the best displays in any device available. It is quickly becoming one of my prefered viewing options for watching streaming content. This device has the ability to meet 90% of my daily computing needs easily. I am considering obtaining a Dec docking station to utilize my phone with my home theater setup for quick streaming.

    Kudos to Best Buy for shipping my phone early! The Note8 is hands down amazing! The dual camera with portrait mode and OIS is great, use the S Pen daily and the 6GB Ram makes it a powerhouse. Samsung Experience 8.5 is great as well, zero lag. Great job Samsung!

    Phone performs well, but after 2 year there is obvious screen burn-in from the text keypad. I'm 45 years old. I don't spend enough time texting to account for any screen burn-in.
