I'm getting the Note 8 no matter what! I'm not missing my chance this time. To me Samsung has the best phones. The only thing keeping me from buying an iPhone is customization and it's display.

[@nine3080]

Debating this as the price is now so low, just curious as to when purchasing a brand new phone along time after it came out, does the latest update bring it all up to scratch ?

[@keithupton86ku]

I was in the same boat- I had a Note 3 for 5 years until the screen broke. Needed a phone asap, so i picked up a cheap, $60 Samsung J3. After doing enough research and stuff, i decided on a certified refurbished Note 8 for $400 from Amazon. Phones nowadays are so advanced, you don't the newest flagship. The 3 that I used before was starting to slow down and become obsolete, but I was still able to do 90% of whatever I needed it to. Therefore, the 8 that I just bought should last at least a few years and do whatever I need. ~$400 every 4+ years doesn't seem too bad.

[@TheRandalldr]

Funny what bums people out. Have owned every Note from the Note 2.... this battery rocks! I have used my phone all day ..it's now 6 pm and my battery is at 73%. So never mind the specs...phone is efficient in use of power. Finger print scanner.... usually the phone is laying in my hand...I've registered first finger on both hands and it's so easy to unlock...plus i don't think you mentioned 'smart lock' so when its in my home or a safe place it doesn't require unlocking. Another cool feature. Note 8 best phone ever. Thanks for your videos. :)

[@AyAy008]

[@Luffy61C4]

Where's the diffrence ?

[@anonblank1362]

Apple removed the headphone jack to compensate for the space of a larger Taptic Engine to give consumers that realistic home button feel. Furthermore, iPhone and Galaxy devices have different internal designs. You can't really compare both devices.

[@lhk7006]

And the Note 8 is thicker.

[@-canopus-513]

Anon Blank they also removed the headphone jack to gain more money as you have to pay a royalty to Apple to make lightning port head phones.

: EliteGhostKillz : that comes with a lightning to 3.5 mm jack for consumers to use their conventional type earphones. 😁

Here are my 10 things. 1. No sd836 that is due out in early October and the Pixel 2 will have. 2. No support for 600/700 MHz, will be a big deal for many countries in the future. 3. No fast charging, compared to say Dash charging. 4. No storage over 64gb which is terrible in 2017. And no I don’t want slower SD storage. 5. All the security options to unlock suck. Poor fingerprint placement, no 3d face recognition and iris scanner that is hit and miss. 6. The blurry photos only works when the object is 1.5m in front of you. 7. Speaker is terrible for a £1000 phone with average DAC and no stereo speakers. 8. All glass chassis which will prove fragile even with small drops. 9. Before you load any of your apps 4gb RAM is already used by Crap Wizz 10. No Android O even though it will be a month old by then. 11. Price is stupid. 12. And the price is stupid.

Samsung already has an outdated version of Android vs full 5 years of updates on iOS, with 0 days of wait 6. No carrier bloat ware 7. iMessage 8.

I know this video was made prior to the release of the phone but I have it and it is really good so far and I have over 200 apps installed, use the camera often and the battery life wrecks what I was getting on my Nexus 6P. The Note 8 runs so smooth too btw. I am using Nova launcher and it is so fast. What I suggest is activating developer options and adjusting the animations to .5X oppose to the 1X it is set at by default. Makes a tremendous difference.

[@danielwoolcock7267]

Love this video, I've not seen one that praises Samsung for what they have achieved with the note 8. In the UK we never got the note 5 and after that the note 7 was recalled I was gutted. I'm a massive note fan and think this phone is nearly perfect. People pick at things too much.
