Product details of Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N950U 64GB Smartphone (Original Imported)
In front of packed bleachers at New York City’s Park Avenue Armory,
Samsung executives unveiled the brand’s newest flagship phablet to the
world for the first time. The Note line is known for pushing the
screen-size envelope, and the Android 7.1.1 Nougat-based Note 8 is no
exception, sporting a 6.3" Super AMOLED screen that eclipses its
short-lived predecessor by more than half an inch. That screen offers a
QHD+ resolution of 2960 x 1440 for an 18.5:9 aspect ratio and carries
over the Galaxy S8 and S8+’s Infinity Display, which wraps around the
side of the device for a nearly bezel-less look.
The Note line’s other constant over the years has been the inclusion
of the S Pen, a built-in stylus, and the Note 8’s has a finer tip and
improved pressure sensitivity for better sketches and writing. The Live
Messages function allows handwritten messages and photos marked up with
drawings and annotations to be sent to friends across platforms, and
Screen Off Memo gives users the ability to start writing without waking
their device up. The S Pen also offers a translation function for
foreign languages and can automatically convert currencies and units of
measurement.
The Note 8 received a major camera upgrade, with two 12MP rear-facing
cameras that work in concert to enable 2x optical zoom. The telephoto
camera has an f/2.4 aperture, in contrast with the f/1.7 wide-angle
camera. Both come with optical image stabilization for sharper photos
and reduced video shake. Those two cameras also enable Live Focus, which
lets users blur the background of their shot in real time to help
subjects stand out.
Other highlights include improved DeX functionality, which turns the
Note 8 into a pared-down desktop computer, programmable complex Quick
Commands for the Bixby virtual assistant, and App Pair, which launches
two apps in split-screen mode with a touch of the Edge Panel. All that
functionality is powered by a 10nm 2.35GHz Snapdragon 835 octa-core
processor and 6GB of RAM, with 64GB of storage that can be expanded
using the microSD card slot. Despite a USB Type-C port for data transfer
and charging its 3300mAh battery and a 3.5mm headphone jack, the Note 8
is water resistant in up to five feet for 30 minutes.
The Galaxy Note 8 will be available for pre-order soon in Midnight
Black, Orchid Gray, Maple Gold, and Deep Sea Blue, and is expected to
ship in mid-September. A pair of AKG earbuds is included.
