VIDEO- Everything We Know About The Galaxy Note 8! - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

We should see the official announcement of the Note 8 in the next few months possibly as soon as August. Here is the run down of everything we know so far about the Galaxy Note 8!
Who else is getting amped up about this phone? Also what is the main feature you are looking forward to when it comes to the Note 8?

I have been a strong fan of the Note line for a long time now. Looking forward to see just what this phone has to offer.

Likely will. I will wait to see the actual specs once it's announced and the specs are published on the carrier sites. Did the same with the 8+. I went thru the Note 7 recall twice.

Because it is the superior device.
But obviously i'd say that as i own the device. Perhaps if you cluttered the s5 forum with these threads instead, you could get a useful answer

Development for the S5 however will be much and much more active than for the Note 3, you can be sure of that. So if you`re looking for that, there will be more to pick from there. I hope we`ll get the S5`s TW and UI too for the N3
To the OP, I'll say just take the size into consideration. If you want a bugger display (and the S pen) go for the note 3. If you want something more manageable with one hand, go for the S5. Both solid devices,you can't go wrong either way.

I think its a great phone so far. Running JackyAway rom and Lean Kernel and performance and batterylife is excellent. And its 32GB instead of the S5`s 16GB storage. Plus the bigger screen is a joy to the eyes

True.
There's a ROM called hyperdrive for the T-Mobile US Note 3 that gives the S5 theme and system UI. Because of that ROM I'm strongly considering going back to the note 3....for a fourth time!

Yeah let's hope, it looks much better than the older touchwiz IMO.
I do like bigger phones but I like the S5 size, its perfect. I have 2-3 weeks to decide before I buy the device so I'll think about it.

[Q] Get the Note 4 or wait for S6?

I am lucky enough to be able to get an upgrade this week and was planning on doing it Feb 27th. I have plans on getting the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 because I have been told its the best phablet/Android large device etc.
HOWEVER, with the announcement of the S6 on March 1st...opinions on if I should wait and get the S6 or will the Note 4 still be larger and superior?
I prefer the series over the note series. So I suggest wait. But of you are eligible for an upgrade on the 27th why not wait until the note 5 is released? What are you working with right now?

LG G2 Almost 2 years old.
Well, I personally would wait. Eligible for an upgrade from my s5 and I'm just waiting for the s6. It's really your choice.
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
i would at least wait until the announcement on march 1st before making a decision...
Well, they are in two different market segment. Note 4 got 5.7" screen and S6 got 5.1"(may even down to 5" this time). If you real need a large screen, you have no choice but only Note4.
Personally, I will pick S6 because the camera will be improved and got RAW and manual shutter speed mode. Though the Note4 camera is already superb and very very enough for daily use. If you don't need that "Pro" mode in s6, then the camera in both phones are almost same to you.
I will suggest to wait 1st March and see what will happen but don't expect it on sales earlier than 22th March according from leaked information.
wait for note 5

no wait for Note 6 :laugh:
If you can wait then wait. For now I am using a Note 4, just upgraded from S3. It's a great device. It's still worth buying a note 4, but waiting and getting to know what does S6 or S6 Edge (if available) has to offer will be a better idea.
I didn't know S6 will be coming this soon, or else I would have waited, but since I got the note 4 I am still happy because it is better than all the other samsung devices for now.
Every new flagship device is great until the next flagship device releases with better specs than our device.
Just sold my Note 4
Wait for S6. So you can test all you want and compare side by side with Note 4.
yess better wait
however S series are so much more focused on
If you want a big screen note 4 if you want a small screen perhaps S6.
That said if sammy really did away with ext sd card support thats going to be a sore spot with many i would think...something to consider.
Id wait and see what happens...unless of course u want the bigger screen.

Personally I'll be waiting for the Note 5. Lack of SD Card is a dealbreaker for me.
Yeah now that we know the S6 is an iPhone twin..no sd card and non removable battery going to be alot of people who pass on it i would think.

What phones do you plan on getting (JoD)

So what phones do you plan on getting for those on Jump on Demand. Or do you plan on sticking with the Note 5 until the 6?
For me I plan on getting the Huawei Nexus, and then my last upgrade will be the next gen HTC(hoping for a phablet like the one max)
I was hoping to get the z5 on tmobile but it doesn't look like that's happening. So I will prolly get the g4 pro and some kind of nexus device.
If I signed up for it in august, do I get two more upgrades until Dec 31st? Or do I get two more upgrades until August of next year?

Depends on what phones they allow to use JOD on. I don't think you can jump to any phone you want can you?
You would get three more upgrades anytime from August 2015 to August 2016

Same as me . Really liking the size and build quality of my new Note 5, and the upcoming Huawei Nexus is supposed to be near identical size as well and high quality metal build. But will carrier stores be selling this Nexus like they did the Motorola Nexus 6 ? Or will it be a Google Play store sale only ?
And I too, am interested to see what HTC has ready for the M10.
But between this Note 5 or Hauwei Nexus, I doubt I'll switch to anything else between those two, until the Note 6.

I'm debating about getting the Note 5. But not sure. I currently have the Note 4 and I don't know if it will be worth jumping to the Note 5. It looks like there have been improvements to the software and it looks like just stock TW on the Note 5 appears to be as buttery smooth and lag free as people are saying.

That's what I mean. I don't know why they don't allow all flag ship models. I can see why they wouldn't allow someone to get $200 phone then trade it in for $800 phone.
Many T-Mobile aren't even carrying the Nexus 6 and it's very soon EOL so that makes sense. I was talking about the next Nexus assuming they will carry the Huawei phablet

Note 5 is a great phone, so is the Note 4. If your happy then stay with Note 4.
I may actually jump to the new iPhone when it gets released. Here's why (don't judge) - I've always been a hardcore google/android guy and I JUST jumped to the Note 5 when it was released. I love it and don't really have a reason to get rid of it, but I also just purchased a custom Moto X Pure which should be here on the 15th and depending on how that phone performs and whether or not I like going back to stock android and losing some of the Note's features. I may just do something a little different and go the iphone route for a bit. Seeing as how I'll have two phones I can just swap the sim cards out at any time. Or I'll just keep Note 5 and see if one of the nexus's is considered a "premium" level phone and jump to one of those.
I like the Note 5 for now, so no plans to JoD, but I like having the option of switching if something good comes out. Even if I don't switch I am still paying the reduced $25/m from the JoD promo for the Note 5 so I am saving money by going JoD. If nothing better comes along I most likely will jump to the Note 6 next year.

Galaxy Note 7 SPen features for the Note 5

Since Samsung had cancelled the Note 7, they should port the Note 7 features to their loyal Note 5 customers. I was slipping the 7 because it wasn't enough new for me to upgrade. Was holding out for the 9 but I don't know now. Giving is something for being loyal Samsung fans would go a long way. Oh...I can't root due to company security policies.

i think the S8+ will do just fine. i have had every note device and never use the S pen. im excited for the new s8 though. just retruned my 7 plus and reversed my upgrade!
I was so excited when I got my note 5 back when, and decided that with oden, rooting was marvelous. and the dev. was very supportive. I'm on the s7 for a second time around and have seen a complete reversal for support. so with me it's a non issue with out an unlocked boot-loader. but if I had to choose, I couldn't wait, its the s8+ . Hopefully, a miracle would happen. peace.
I will get the S8+ if I decided to get a Samsung device this year. Simply because I rarely used the SPen ever.
Yea. I only use spen for copy and pasting texts

The Note 8 might have fingerprint under glass (at front), according rumors, the S8 would have had it, but Samsung run out of time to produce enough.
or the Samsung Galaxy On8? india only, but seems a better phone with removable back cover, none of this glass plated nonsense.
S8+ is on my high priority list! Don't need pen...
Just choose s8 plus
I still remember the day I bought a s6 edge
I used to love Samsung devices, but ever since they went only curved screens I've been bummed. Ooh well no more Galaxy's for me anymore. There are plenty of other phones. BTW absolutely love my Huawei Mate 9, best phone I've ever owned and I have owned almost all of them.
I almost bought a Mate 9, but the development there was scarce. Which made me have second thoughts. I'm currently using the Note 5 and was considering a G6 tough at first. I'm interested in seeing what the S8+ have to offer though and will make my decision after the reveal.
i had galaxy S2 then legendary S3 ...and then i switched to Note 4....and i sweared i would never go back to S series from note series.....so i guess either note 8 or i dont know what to buy these days....When Note 4 came out it blow my mind and i said that i must have it and bought it a moment when it came out....Now days i have no idea what my next phone will be :/
I was eagerly waiting for the release of the new Galaxy S phone, sold my S7 Edge like a month ago. I was all hyped and stuff, but even since all the rumours started to show up (no 6 gigs ram, no fingerprint scanner under the front glass (maybe for Note 8), patent for Note 8 dual camera etc.), I became unsure. At this moment i don't even know if i should spend 900 euros on a phone ) I even considered buying a Umidigi Z Pro
