All you need to know about Samsung Galaxy Note 8

Finally, the awaited release, the beautiful dream that came to make us forget the nightmare Galaxy Note 7 which was considered by many as one of the most dangerous weapons in modern times because of the possibility of being owned by any citizen without a legal question, let us welcome together Samsung Galaxy Note 8, the latest version of the strongest category -The best in my opinion-, among all categories of Samsung phones.

The company finally came out one year after the release of the explosive version of the category, with their expectations that this version would be the best in terms of sales in the whole category, said DJ Koh, chief of Samsung phones at his meeting with CNBC where he said he had heard that many lovers of The category has already gone to South Korea’s Samsung stores to ask if the device could be pre-ordered even though the company had not already announced the device.

I cannot say a specific number but I expect it will sell even more than a note 5.

Koh said.

In his predictions, Koh relied on a survey of 3,949 people, with 75 percent saying that Note was the best phone they had ever seen.

The phone was launched at the Samsung Unpacked event on August 23rd under the watchful eye of millions of followers who waited long to get the latest, non-explosive version of the best-ever series.

In this article I will answer many questions, the most important of which are:

  • What is the date of release for Galaxy Note 8?
  • What is the Galaxy Note 8 design and what are its specifications?
  • What are the new features of the device and the pen?
  • Will its battery be safe or there is a possibility to repeat the tragedy of Note 7?
  • How much will the approximate price of the device be?

Follow the following lines …

Date of release

First of all, we are talking about the date of release and the time when we will be able to get the latest Samsung phones. As you know, the launch began on August 23rd and is available for pre-order in UK stores. The 24th of august is the day when the preorder will be available in the United States.

Its availability will be on September 15th in the United States, the same day as the rest of the world.

You can make a preorder in the United States through Samsung, AT & T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint, as well as small cell providers such as C Spire, Cricket Wireless, Straight Talk, US Cellular, Xfinity Mobile and of course Best Buy, Walmart and Target will also have pre-order available.

Design and screen

We used Samsung Note phones to have a screen size of 5.7 inches, but the screen in this version has the lion’s share of changes.

The screen is now 6 inches larger than the above. It is 6.3 inches in QHD+ 3840×2160, as well as being curved in both directions. There are no edges around the screen, so you are going only to carry a screen and just screen into a piece of footage without any point Spoil you the pleasure of watching.

Of course, as we used to Samsung, the screen comes with the Super AMOLED technology we saw on the Galaxy S8 and S8 + phones, with the addition of HDR display support, which is on its way to invade the mobile market.

The phone has distinctive circular edges that make it easy to hold it, even with its large size, holding it and finding the location of the buttons and fingerprint sensor is easy.

By talking about the buttons, the phone uses the same design mechanism as the S8 phones, making the Home button non-physical to get the most space on the screen. The fingerprint sensor is on the back of the phone with its dual camera Which is the most distinctive of the S8 next to the pen certainly, and this was met with negative opinions by the users because they saw that there are better ways and methods to develop fingerprint sensor, although easy to access, but it is not quite comfortable.

I keep talking about the screen and body of the phone, to mention that it is waterproof with the IP68 certificate, which we saw on the phones of Note 7 and S8, which means that the phone was tested at a depth of 1.5 meters for 30 seconds down the water and passed the test.

Camera

The camera in Note 8 is one of the most important changes that have taken place throughout the Samsung series. It is now a 12-megapixel dual-sensor camera, which means you can 2X zoom in to the scene without any loss of image quality.

You can also use the sensors to take the picture with a background with a Blur effect.

Shooting in the low-light is very good with the camera sensors, and the pictures will show you the beauty because of its quality and of course because of the view on the giant screen of the phone.

The front camera of the phone is 8 MB and can capture images of good quality as well as being good in weak lighting.

Specifications

When we talk about the processor, the phone is issued in two versions, one with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor in China and the United States, and the other with Samsung’s special processor, Exynos 8895, in the other countries.

Both processors are eight-core, and the graphics processor is also in two versions: Mali-G71 MP20 for all countries of the world and Adreno 540 in China and the United States along with Qualcomm processor.

The RAM is standard for all countries with a capacity of 6 GB, which is a good capacity at all, with an internal storage of 64, 128 and 256 GB.

Despite the launch of Android Oreo, Note 8 will be available with Android 7.1.1 AKA Android Nougat, but of course it will be the first to receive the new version of the system soon after it is launched along with the Galaxy S8 and S8+.

Everything about Android Oreo and its features

The new version of the S Pen comes with 4,000 levels of pressure sensor, which means that each level of pressure on the phone will perform a different function, in addition to the lightness of the pen and its distinctive design.

There is also the options wheel that we always see as soon as the pen is released from its place to give you options to quickly access applications that allow you to write or draw anything you want right away.

It also added several features such as creating GIF animations, which you can draw as well as word translation with one swipe plus a set of other features.

The Battery

The most important and most dangerous points are the phone battery of course because of the company and its customers suffered from the disaster of Note 7, of course no one from those who wants to buy the phone can hide his concern about this matter no one wants to have explosives in his pocket, but do not worry, Galaxy Note 8 will not explode , I’m not here to tell you that Samsung will certainly take this into account in all its devices, but I’m here to show you how did they take it into account.

In all its phones released in 2017, Samsung introduced a new “8-Point Battery Safety Check“, a test that is done during the phone manufacturing process. The batteries are placed under extreme tests of heat, pressure and other conditions. It is then scanned by X-ray as well as by the human eye to ensure the highest quality of the battery and the highest level of safety.

The company said in relation to this matter:

This program is a commitment from us to make safer devices now and in the future.

From my point of view, what happened on Note 7 was good because of what things went through in the company to make the batteries better and less likely to raise the temperature, but of course it was not so good at that time.

I have finished talking about the security and quality of the battery. To get to the battery capacity of the phone, the 3300mAh non-removable Li-Ion battery can operate for 22 hours of call and 74 hours of music listening.

As for charging, the phone comes with a USB Type-C port and, of course, a fast charging feature.

In my opinion, the capacity of the battery is small for the specifications of the device that needs a larger battery so that it can run this specification for as long as possible, even less than the battery in the S8 +, which was 3500mAh, but the most we hope is that the company has optimized the software So that the relatively small battery can operate the phone for as long as possible.

Miscellaneous

As we are used to the latest versions of Samsung’s top-class phones, it comes with the Samsung Dex, a small piece that lets you turn your computer into an Android computer to display everything on the phone, and of course the Bixby which has improved a lot and become more interactive with the user.

Here I have reached the end of the article in which I tried to mention the most important things about the new phone from Samsung. It is noteworthy that there are hopes around the world that the price of the phone is less than 1000 euros, but the expectations do not go in this direction, The S8 + phone was released at around 850 euros, and Note 8 is not expected to be of a lower price, but we are still waiting for the official announcement of the price.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
