    I've finally gone back to the Samsung Note series after the disaster which was called the Z Force Droid. My Note 8 so far has been very very good. It's intuitive, easy, and nicely customizeable. After the fiasco that was the Note 7 I was initially reluctant, but chose to return to Samsung. It has been worth it. The battery life is quite good, the display is bright, and big, and the S pen is simple and effective. Samsung knew they needed to bring back Note customers, and with the Note 8 I believe they did just that.

    Everything great about the Note 7, and kicked up a notch. Camera is great, battery life is awesome. Apps open quickly and you can go back and forth between apps at lightning speed!

    Great phone! Dual camera is awesome. The phone is slightly more narrow than the Note 4, which is perfect for carrying in my front pants pocket. Speed and layout is much improved.

    iPhone X looks like a great phone, but Samsung is way ahead of the game here. This is a much more feature-rich phone. Useful features. This phone will have you wanting for nothing. Good camera too. Ill include some shots.

    A Phone That Has It All

    The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is "state of the art". It sends it's purchaser on a steep learning curve with it's many features but "sticking with it" is rewarding to the user. My complaints have to do with length and slickness. The phone does not fit in one's pocket as easily as its' predecessor. It is subject to slipping out when one is seated. However, the length does make it easier to read text. Being glass on both sides makes it slick, which can make the phone easier to slip from one's hand. A case and protective front cover are advisable. I did manage to get a good deal on the phone and the salesperson was super helpful.

    This is a great phone for someone who likes big phones and would like a really good camera. The S Pen is very responsive. I can get through 95% of my day of the battery.

    Great camera. Good apps. Easy to use. Not too big, just right. Best Buy and Verizon offered a good incentive to buy. Glad I stepped up to Note.

    I've been a fan of the Note series since the Note 3. I love the Note8. the high-quality screen is with only a little bit bezel gives you so much more space for watching movies or videos. I'm a student and this phone was handy when it came to opening up powerpoints and viewing them easily. the s pen is always a great feature. i'm not an artist so i dont use it for the drawing, but I do take a good amount of notes down with it.

    Best phone I've ever owned

    I can't begin to explain how much I love this phone. I was afraid it was going to be a little too large for me after upgrading from a Galaxy S7 Edge, but I have no regrets. The Note 8 may be a little too much phone for people who are more casual users. If you simply talk, text, and check your email, and maybe do the occasional smart phone stuff, your money would be better spent on something a little simpler and less expensive. Otherwise, the Note 8 boasts a gorgeous and gigantic screen, amazing amount of memory, the best cell phone camera on the market (matched only by the Pixel 2) and more functionality than you'll ever probably need - and having the stylus to make quick notes is a huge plus too. If you enjoy serious technology and want the best of a phone, a tablet and frankly a little computer that fits (barely) in your pocket, then this is the phone for you. And if you're looking for the ability to do anything and everything that a modern, up-to-date smart phone can do, you won't do better for yourself than the Note 8. It's definitely not an inexpensive phone, but it's worth every single penny.

    I'm impressed with the battery life of this phone... On top of all the things I knew I would love about it. When I go to bed at night I still have some life left... Which is amazing for me. The stylus is great and all the hidden features are great when you root them out!!! I left Samsung after my S7 because the battery life decreases on their phones so much.... But I read that was supposedly fixed on the s8... We'll see... My fingers are crossed because the note series is a winner..

    I hated giving up my Note 3, but it was dying and I had to do something. This phone is intuitive, has amazing functions, is perfectly sized, long battery life, and an awesome screen. Having had the phone less than a month, I've already used the stylus and screen writing functions countless times - it's great!

    Been very pleased with my new Note 8 so far. Battery life is much improved over the previous Note 5, I did not have an opportunity to use the Note 7. When the Note 7 got recalled, I intended on waiting for the Note 8 and it has not disappointed. Even using the phone more frequently with more battery intense apps the battery life itself has been great. The phone feels high quality when held in your hand, and is more narrow than my Note 5 making it easier to hold. While the finger print scanner is a bit of a stretch to reach it is still functional and my preferred security method for unlocking the phone. Was very excited to see they added expandable memory which was one gripe I had about my Note 5. Wont be looking for a new phone anytime soon, enjoying the Note 8.

    I buy a new Samsung Galaxy phone every 2 years, so this one replaced my old Note 5. So far so good. I need the pen feature for the detailed work that I do. I love the big screen, the on-board memory size, the ability to add an additional SD memory card, the overall performance speed and the excellent battery duration. It also charges faster than any other phone I have owned.

    Galaxy Note 8 has great features. The camera takes amazing pictures, the battery life is longer and the stylus is much better than the note 5 (I broke that one the first week). My problem with this phone is the touch screen. The right side of the screen is not touch friendly at all. When sending text the letters on the right side of the screen are extremely hard to press, even with the stylus. As a matter of fact anything you need to access on the right side of the screen requires a very firm press. The Note8 does not have a calibration feature.

    I've had the Note 8 for about 6 months. It's been a great phone. Most times after 6 months I'm eager to get the newest phone. The Note 8 has a good battery life, takes great photos and the S pen is so easy to use. It's also nice have 64gb built in and can expand to 256gb. Great phone!
