Its too huge, it does no longer deserve to be called a cellphone..
Also battery power is too low!. I expected 4000mah, with so much power, i do know how long battery it will last.
SAMSUNG IS so obssed with gorilla glass with Similar designs that are more alike, even making difficulties in differentiating samsung phones.

FROM all of the note you have DESIGN, note 4 is the best and will remain to be so!. Unless you came up with new designs, phone shapes and features.

its a failure as compared to s8+. it has nothing new except for the camera. nobody will shell out extra 350 just for the camera and also gets a REDUCED battery life for a LARGER screen.
Samsung has successfully created a flop...AGAIN!

So the telephoto is a smaller sensor with only 1um vs 1.44um pixels and a vastly smaller aperture of f2.4 compared to f1.7?
Why??

Reading all the comments,I could agree with majority of people too!
1.Price 1000€+?!?
2.Still no stereo speakers?!?
3.Same faulty design with the fingerprint scaner!(really Samsung?!?)
4.Not much if all of an upgrade over his "S" sibling
5.Even smaller battery

I mean who in the right mind would buy this over S8+

Wonder where are we headed with atrocious prices, impractical design and 0 innovation. This is beautiful indeed but apart from being a rich man's toy, I fail to see anything. Samsung UX is functional but over time struggles, many folks have already realised how practical infinity display is and the prices are rivalling a laptop! The camera looks great on paper and that's it for me. Good luck to folks who drain there money on this new overhyped toy!

Nothing beats a wide-angle camera, at least since you try it.

The small battery will be this device's downfall.

Only major innovation was the camera. Rest all are software changes. S pen is the same as note 7. Only software features have changed. They couldn't even add tilt recognition. Till then, writing with an spen will never feel like writing with a pencil or pen.
The battery is a joke. 3300mah on a powerhouse. I was hoping they'd put a bigger battery when they were hyping that the note is for power users in their unpacked event. Such a shame. And it features quick charge 2.0. Please samsung. Qc 3.0 is the standard now. And most flagships have bigger batteries than the note 8.


I see the unpacked event as samsung overly hyping their undeserving new phone. There's nothing much to too new or too good for people except the camera. Lots of new features for the camera! And useful ones too. But the battery, samsung dex, bixby are all wasteful and not even useful.

This phone would've been great if it costed half of what it's priced at now. Other than that, it's nothing but a phone for rich fools to buy and for Samsung to prosper by their immoral product marketing strategy. Such a shame indeed!
