Upgrading from Note4 to Note8. Can't imagine going for any other series of phone coz of the features on a Note. Once you go Note there's no going back! Thanks for the video :)

[@mohamedhashi3604]

JenJen Im doing the exact same thing, brother. Note 4 to Note 8 👏🤘

[@xxDixxAyxx]

JenJen from note 3 to note 8 I'm so hyped :)

[@lincoln132003]

JenJen me 2 😎

[@MintyCanRead]

So am I! And I completely agree. I doubt there's anyone who has downgraded from a Note to any other phone. The only "problem" is my Note 4 still works amazingly well (not even a scratch), so my justification for getting a Note 8 is that I can pass on my Note 4 to a non-Note person and convert them =P

[@newisthedawn]

Minty hahaha so true! My Note4 is still perfect looks like it's only 3 months old. It has very little scratches and no broken screen even when I've dropped it a couple of times past 3years! Also I've never factory reset my Note4 only doing it now coz I'm passing it down too. Getting the Note8 coz I want better camera and improved S pen and that infinity display just looks gorgeous. I feel like this Note8 is true upgrade from my Note4. Didn't feel compelled enough to get Note5 or Note7!

[@norma9548]

I just got an email saying that my phone has shipped. Your videos are helping me tremendously in learning the Note 8 . Thank you.

You missed two very big smart select feature. The first is that when you smart select something, you can use the button with the little T on it to extract a text. It pulls the text out of the picture and makes it copyable to your clipboard. The other feature is the animated gif creator. You can draw the square anywhere on your screen and it will create a gif of whatever it's seeing

[@satori2869]

I don't understand how to accomplish this: The other feature is the animated gif creator. You can draw the square anywhere on your screen and it will create a gif of whatever it's seeing Could you explain step-by-step? I tried all I could think of...

[@annabeljames9759]

@@satori2869 I know you probably figured this out by now, but the Note 8 has the smart select feature, that you can add as a shortcut. What I did is, use the little stylus icon that appears on the edge of the phone or the corner and then add the smart select as shortcut. After that, I use that to select whatever text I want and extract it, before copying. So if I want to copy a part of a photo, I open the camera app, touch the little stylus symbol and when all my shortcuts appear, I select smart select, extract and copy.

John Gardner k... How?

[@johngardner869]

farrius dean how what?

[@snoopybishop]

Well you said the note was the king of Mobile Phones.

[@johngardner869]

farrius dean it is. It offers something that no other phone offers in the s pen features. Best display on the market iris scanning fast wireless charging. Supports hdr and on KZbin too. Only a few devices do that. Great design with the curved screen, 6gb of ram. The display size is perfect for split screen multi tasking. Vast amount of cases and accessories. Battery life is said to be very good too from the people iv spoke to. Samsung dex free with it in the UK too

[@hamzterix]

KZbin "Tech reviewers" and any other folks calling the Note8 an S8+ with a S-Pen needs to watch and learn from this video.

[@Soundjas300zx]

Great run down. I have loved the S Pin since the note 4. They just keep making it better.

[@CarbideGames]

Thanks, sakitech! This is a really helpful tutorial for 1st-time Note users such as myself. Great job, I can't wait to try out my device in two days and will revisit your video here to make sure that I haven't overlooked anything in settings.

So great to have your videos to help me maximize all these terrific features. Coming from a Moto that gave up the ghost, I'm LOVING this phone. So user friendly! Many thanks for the professional and concise videos!

[@terryguire1321]

One of the most thorough I have seen on KZbin to date. Excellent! So glad you have done a variety of videos about the Note 8 as I'm considering its purchase. I have had the Note 2 for years but can see from your video that the S-Pen has many more useful capabilities now. Thanks!

Does anyone else go around youtube looking at all videos on a product they want because they can't buy it at the moment? I've been doing that about the Note 8, Gear S3. in the past I've done it with the Nintendo Switch (it wasn't released at the time), the Steam controller, and Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild.

[@spacetimergames]

clicking the hovering icon n then selecting takes too much time...looks frustrating You should be able to write a letter on anywhere on the screen (when you aren't on a writing or drawing mode) like "1" for the first function you set in the circular list and "2" n so on Would make things 4 times faster

Thank you for all of the information on this outstanding piece of technology. Once again, thank you.

[@hasanshah1991]

thisn is nt complete review of s pen feature

[@TralfazConstruction]

I'll never learn, nor utilize, all of the tricks which the Note8 can perform. I'd even go as far as to say that I'm a lower-end "power user" where a typical day will find me unsheathing the S-Pen a couple dozen times. The Note8 is my media powerhouse which can, occasionally, take phone calls. My granddaughter watched a KZbin video on the Note8 this past Wednesday and I watched her eyes go wide when she saw that display. So far, so good Note8.

[@rrapatushjarrapatushi4063]

Im glad i found this video,this explain everything about the pen,thank you 👍

[@ooluwabiyi5119]

Thank you. You are amazing. Just thought me how to use my new Note8. I am loving it.

[@redgeoblaze3752]

They thought of fucking everything with this phone. Even if you won't use half of these features it's still leagues better than pretty much any other phone. I know I'll be using the Note taking feature quite often being a game designer. I have sparratic ideas that come and go in a short amount of time. so I don't want to have to go and enter my 10 digit passcode, open a note taking app, and type it down. instead, scan my finger, open the note, and write it down in a considerably shorter time. I particularly thought of my half blind grandma when you talked about the magnifier. that would be perfect for her. Not to mention the pen so she can make precise tapping, and she wouldn't have to worry about autocorrect, or missing keys because she could just write the words out. I'll definitely be getting one of these when I can save enough money. though honestly the note 9 will probably be out by that time.

[@lazzieboy111]

good luck bro. and i am very proud of you that you thinking getting this for your grandma. for note 8. u just pull the s pen out and u can take note straight away .. no need to scan your finger and open the note. . just pull s pen and start writing.. very fast and cool. i am using this feature a lot and playing hangman guessing word game with the kids

Thinking about switching from ios tbh

[@rachels491]

You should, I was one of those people who waited in line for the new Iphone. Then I got the galaxy note 10.1 tablet for my birthday and I fell in love with the pen. I switched to the note series phones and now every time I try to use an Iphone I find it so frustrating and clunky that I can barely do anything with it. The Note is the best android device out there. I use the pen CONSTANTLY and can't function without it anymore.

[@essikah9067]

i got the note after watching so many youtube vids saying its not worth it and i gotta say its awesome!!!

[@aishanibush2840]

Same I been able to upgrade for 2 month and can't decide. The only reason. Is my Apple watch. I'll feel it was a waste if I switch and it still working. But I'm so tempted at just using it as a watch and get the note.

[@lazzieboy111]

got my note 8 last week and i am loving it.. using iphone 6+ for the last 2 and a half year. was about to get the new iphone but... iphone 8 was a joke with it own design and iphone 10 is too ugly with the notch on the top. btw i love drawing so the s pen is good for me.
