There are a variety of other tips that also come in the box, some that produce more drag when writing. It’s a bit slippery which doesn’t help considering it’s also pretty thin but Samsung’s improved the tip by making it finer. Clicking it releases the pen which is light, mostly plastic in build. At first, the position was ridiculously high to reach, but again - you learn to adapt your grip.Īt the bottom, you’ll the find the S Pen. It’s much more prominent and I prefer this design over the S8’s. I’m guessing this has to do with the slightly raised camera/fingerprint housing, making it much easier to target the sensor by touch and not overshoot over to the camera lens. I do seem to get less false reads than I did with the S8/S8+ but I’m not sure if that’s necessarily because of better hardware. On the back of the phone, the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor is still a pain in the butt. My personal favorite case is the thin Spigen Thin Fit case which has a rubbery, soft-touch finish. A small nuisance, but you’ll definitely want to pick up a case for it and maybe even something with a little grip. The Note 8 frequently fell out of my jeans, shorts, sweatpants, etc., thanks to it being taller than most other devices and a bit heavier toward the top. The toughest time I had was merely fitting the phone into my pockets. It just takes some getting used to, that’s all - but it’s certainly doable.
It’s not impossible to adapt and it’s a lot like 4.3-inch smartphones back in the day that people initially felt were “too big” for normal use. Even bigger devices like the Pixel XL now feel small in comparison, somewhat of an interesting side-effect. The Note 8’s 18.5:9 aspect ratio means it’s more top heavy, forcing you to relearn how you hold a smartphone. It’s only a few mm larger than the Galaxy S8+, but that 3mm makes a big difference. To say the Note 8 feels oversized would be an understatement. With the price of the phone reaching upwards of $1,000 - it damn well better. The Note 8 is modern, elegant, and sturdy, with a nice weight to it that feels expensive. Just like S8s, there’s not a single rough edge or diamond cut chamfer to be found. So much the corners poke out a bit more when it’s in your pocket. The phone has a much more square look to it than the Galaxy S8+. Samsung’s come a long way since the cheap plastic build of the original Galaxy Note, with the Note 8 being the pinnacle of their hardware prowess. At this point, it’s pretty much business as usual for Samsung with the Note 8 almost perfectly mirroring the build quality and design of this year’s Galaxy S8 and S8+. There really aren’t any surprises here with the Galaxy Note 8. Start here: 15 first things to do with the Galaxy Note 8 | 80+ Galaxy Note 8 Tips & Tricks Design & Hardware

I’ve spent the better part of a few weeks with the Galaxy Note 8 as my daily driver and feel comfortable enough with the pros and cons to finally share my thoughts.

While some are already crowning it the new king of Android by default, I haven’t been swayed quite as easily. Huge display, big battery, wireless charging, water resistance, dual cameras, and of course, the S Pen - it’s a winning combination and most manufacturers simply can’t compete with that robust feature set. The sum of its parts, the Note 8 comes equipped with every modern day convenience you can hope to find in a smartphone in 2017. This kitchen sink approach is something we’ve seen from Samsung for years now, but it’s never been pushed so far to the extreme like it has on the Note 8. Like a Lincoln Navigator, the oversized Note practically screams excess and is so packed to the brim with features, you’ll have a hard time finding them all. Much more than just a “Galaxy S with a stylus,” the Note line has long represented the very best Samsung could build, the crown jewel in their yearly smartphone lineup.
Needless to say, Samsung has a lot riding on this year’s follow-up, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8. You know, if you don’t count the extremely brief launch of the Note 7 thanks to a worldwide recall after reports of units catching fire began to surface.

It’s almost crazy to think that it’s been over 2 full years since a Galaxy Note was readily available to consumers.
