what is up guys my name is Mario and it's time for me to give you the review
of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 after I used it for a couple of months so let's go
check it out
first I want to talk about the awesome six point three inch infinity display
that you're gonna get with this phone so one of the advantages of having a wider
screen is that you're gonna be able to multitask on this phone can I be able to
use the multi window option where you can have a YouTube in one side and you
can have your Twitter feed on the other or you can just be checking emails if
you're playing mobile games so having a bigger screen means you're gonna be able
to have a better handle the phone I'm just watching that videos and YouTube or
maybe watching a movie on Netflix it's just great to have that full screen size
experience having a larger screen does make it a little bit harder to use
single hand functionality so usually have to use both hands specially if I'm
typing there's something about the keyboard that the screen size ratio that
I find a little bit hard to type with one hand but that's just me but also
you're gonna have this great feature called one hand mode which you can
activate now moving into the performance this phone is gonna handle pretty much
anything you throw at it with the six gigabytes of ram the 8:35 snapdragon
octa-core processor you're gonna be able to heavily multitask I pretty much can
open any app I wan I usually have multiple apps running in the background
and I'm able to go from one app to the other and I have no issues with glitches
or applications crashing I also play some of the more advanced games like
Ferb G I'm able to play with the HD graphics some of the time settings and I
can play for a couple of hours and I don't notice any glitches and best of
all this phone will not get hot but when it comes with the battery I mean it does
the job it's gonna have it 3300 milliamp battery which I basically it gets me
through a whole day without having to recharge
I would adaptive fast charging I can get back in my feet real quick so usually
within 30 minutes I can get about 40 percent of the battery life when I'm
between 0 to 40 and to get a full battery charge you usually take number
an hour and a half and let's just not forget the wireless charging
capabilities next let's talk about the s-pen
if you're familiar with the Galaxy Note series you know that there's not gonna
be another phone out there that it's gonna give you the same experience so
the physical pain they haven't done much improvement I mean they made some
improvements to the end tips and and just the grip of it is a little bit
better one thing that I like a lot is that you're able to take quick notes on
the go if your phone is off you don't even have to turn it off as soon as you
pull the pen out you can start juggling down some notes and once you're using
the phone you can use the pen to navigate it is very responsive it is
very easy to use using the air commands you can have multiple features like
smart select screen right live messages translate big speed by vision I don't
want to know what is your favorite feature
in the style of Spain if you could only have one now let's talk about the
cameras on this phone in the back you're gonna have a total megapixel dual camera
one camera is going to take just regular shots the second camera is going to lie
it for two times optical zoom in so basically it's gonna allow you to take
some pictures from far away and still give you very good picture quality with
the combination of these two lenses you're gonna have another option called
like focus so basically you're gonna be able to have that blur background
effects especially if you have a subject and you want to focus on that person or
that I don't have that blur effect in the back and best of all that when you
snap the picture this is gonna take two pictures one with the wider angle we're
gonna show basically everything around the subject that you took the picture
and the other picture is just gonna be the subject with the blur background
effect the up return this camera is gonna be 1.7 so basically what it means
is that you're gonna be able to take better pictures when it comes to low
life scenarios and the camera in the throne is not gonna stay behind it's
gonna have an a megapixel camera with us well 1.7 aperture and it's gonna have a
smart out-of-focus and when it comes to beat it you're gonna be able to take 4k
video quality and if you want you can even have the feature for slow-motion
now let's talk about Bigsby now Bigsby after you like it's like a love and hate
relationship a lot of people hate it some people like it some people find it
interesting I personally I mean here I haven't really used it a lot I haven't
really invested the time to learn how it works to learn all the commands to be
able to get all the full functionality I feel like you have to sit there and
basically learn what it can do learn how it can be done and then start using it I
do find it annoying that every time I've tried to press the volume button I do
press the big sweep button my accident and now you get this pop-up window that
comes up and then you're trying to close it and I know you can disable it but I
just haven't done it because I do I really want to learn more about it and
hopefully one day I'll get there where I can fully start using a big space
especially if I continue using the Samsung phones in the future and
something basically is considering to make this better and bigger in the near
future now the note eight offers you multiple
ways in which you can unlock the phone one of them is the iris scanner
next you have face recognition and the fingerprint sensor I personally use the
fingerprint sensor some people mentioned that they're not able to reach the
fingerprint sensor it's hard to get to it I personally don't
have an issue now I really like the face recognition this is very quick usually
when I press the power button and if I'm looking at the phone it automatically
unlocks the phone it almost feels like it just by pressing the power button its
unlocking the phone next using the iris scanner this is
really not my favorite one it does take time getting used to it you have to know
how to position the phone a lot of times it just won't work and you have to try
it again but you do have options and definitely the fingerprint sensor is my
favorite one next I want to talk about some of the improvements or some of the
opportunities that I find on the Galaxy Note 8 the first one is the action
speaker on the bottom I feel like now everyone should have at
least two speakers the note 8 speaker is not that bad it's pretty loud but it's
just not good enough I feel like you gotta have at least 2 speakers usually
if I'm using holding the phone with one hand I'm blocking the speaker so I find
it hard if I'm playing the game it doesn't sound the same and if I'm just
watching a video and if I'm holding the phone is just it blocks some of the
sound my next complaint is gonna be on the battery life I feel like Samsung
needs to do a better job when it comes to battery I mean I know at first you do
get pretty much a full day of battery life but I want to start using this
phone more and more add the batteries and I start getting depleted it's not
gonna hold the charge the same way and having a phone like the note 8 this is
gonna be a phone that people are gonna use all the time they're gonna do suffer
business play games heavily multitask so you gotta have very good battery for
this phone so I hope this is something that they're going to improve on the
Galaxy Note 9 and another real struggle that I find is that it is really hard to
find a good screen protector for this phone of course there's some very
expensive screen protectors that you can find out there for 30 40 50 dollars
which I don't feel that it's worth it paying for a screen protector on a phone
but if you want to go find a budget screen protector that's gonna protect
the phone and it's going to work pretty well for about 1020 dollars it's gonna
be really hard I already pretty much went about four or
five screen protectors and either they break easily they come off easily and
this last one is just a matter of opinion but a lot of people are out
there saying bring the IR blaster back what do you think you think a samson is
to bring the IR blaster back with the galaxy note 9 if you have a Galaxy Note
8 or thinking about getting one or if you have
the Galaxy Note phones make sure you subscribe to this channel I'm gonna have
a lot more videos in the Galaxy Note 8 and I've been doing a bunch of Vitas on
the older galaxy notes like for example the Galaxy Note 4 the Galaxy Note 5 so
