Any guesses about price
Should be around 58 k
Well if they wanna stay and track and dont want their note 4 to face the same situation as S5.. They must price it for 42k max.. And a sd 805 is a must.. But exynos is better too

Doesn't seem a much awaited upgrade to the note 3,Samsung could have thrown in all the hardware and really gone for the kill.Slight larger screen,64bit processor,larger battery,4gb ram,Metal and probably a new design.
If anything now they wanna do,is to keep the price around 45,000rs
Happy with Note 3.

A5777, smartphone market is saturated enough, no oem can give big upgrades in a few months time, the phone already has metal and better design than previous versions, note 3 users may not find it substantial but for the rest of the world it's worth every penny. Hope they keep the price reasonable
Lets not blame nd find faults wid the SoC dis time... Lets b happy whateva version v get nd discuss how to improve the user experience in either of the versions...
Sme of the features of S-pen r quite useful coz thts wht a pen is supposed to do... Whereas the gimmicks on the fone continue... Ram needed to b upgraded...
well we getting a 64 bit SOC exynos with 4g LTE... this is what I have heard..
and yep exynos is better than SD always.. just cause of less samsung documentation and half baked sources exynos fails....
but for a normal user both the SOCs are awesome

There wasn’t much buzz about Samsung Galaxy
Note 4 in India except among geeks and rich
people. After all the Samsung Galaxy Note series
is usually very overpriced and there isn’t anything
very innovative about the phone to make it worth
its price. Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is not too
different but it does seem to have some not so
useful yet very cool features that might just make
spending the humongous amount seem cool if not
worthwhile.
Samsung says that the Note 4 will be available
globally in October in four colours -- Black,
White, Pink and Gold. Sources within Samsung
said that India was likely to be among the first
countries where the Note 4 would go on sale.
For now there is no word on the price of the
device but we expect it to cost around Rs
50,000.

To back it up...ppl in india shell 50k or more for tiny iPhone. ...this year's note 4 with new s pen looks more promising if it's slightly less than 50k
Can anybody confirm if note 4 will support LTE India ( band 40 Td 2300 mhz ) .. curious as I can use it now as a trial run in india and LTE would be officially avail pan india by december ...
Android Pure put out a screenshot of ‘About Phone’ of the alleged Mi Note 2 Pro which is said to run Android Nougat out of the box. Leaks claim Mi Note 2 Pro will be the first Xiaomi smartphone to come with Android Nougat.
The screenshot reveals Mi Note 2 Pro will be powered by a quad-core (Snapdragon 821 rumoured) processor clocked at 2.6GHz. It is said to come with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage. Xiaomi Mi Note 2 Pro will run MIUI 8 with Android Nougat.
Who will be getting one?
I definitely will.
Me too if the screen is IPS

The screen is supposed to have curved edges, so that will be AMOLED since you can't bend IPS
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Then I would buy something else. Colors of modern art are more lovely on Amoled but I feel natural photos much more real on IPS
---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------
Plus I prefer small borders like on Nubia phones than curved edges
I prefer AMOLED over IPS as it has better battery life.
That's a good reason, also it provides battery friendly "always on notifications" which is quite nice.
Only thing I can see there's much less sub pixels, and maybe that's why I find amoled less true to life than IPS.
That would be great to have the choice between them but that would never happen, there's already so much different models.
After first mi note pro fail (flagship killer 2015 that had 0 android updates, rly?) I won't buy xiaomi. ever. For me Google pixels looks great + they will have newest soft and tons, just tons of developers working with them.
Miui 8 offers everything Google updates can offer (app permissions, data usage, etc...): which specific feature do you want?
My gut feel, it won't be Android 7 !
Any ATT users of the older Note, I have to admit the specs of the new model have me looking at what little info there is about it here in the US.
So did you guys buy Mi Note 2.
I personally bought OnePlus 3 and been on ported Miui 8 nearly all the way. I miss 5.7 inches and 2k a bit though.

Need help
Guys, we need help, bunch of people is working for enabling lte band 20 in xiaomi mi 5. All we need is some data, from xiaomi note 2 pro, so it would be wonderfull if somebody could do this. Check this link to topic I talked about http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/progress-trying-to-unlock-bands-t3337476/page51
If you want help, just say there, so people who are working on it would be notified, cause I don t know how to build that data.
Cheers to all happy owners!!

The only but big problem for me is that lack of fingerprint scanner, I don't want a thief starting to buy on Ebay or Amazon from my accounts and I don't want to unlock it with a pin a hundred time a day...

So... The Note 8 is out... Its a great Device! But 1000€ its exaggerated!!
How many Note 4 users will go to the 8? I think not so many...
I'm still happy with my 3 years old Device... (Already with Dr.Ketan's Rom)
Can we hope to a Note 8 porting or witch Rom can you recommend?
Or should i start to save money? [emoji39]
I just ordered a Mate 9 from Newegg today. I seen the price of the Note 8 and my thought was the same ($1200 + tax Canadian here). I'm on my 2nd Note 4 now and this one has the eMMC issue too. So from the reviews the Mate 9 seems like a close contender with the S8 (At this point I don't care about custom roms for it)

i will go N8 if same price with N4 lmao
is too expensive with 128gb or 64gb
or i must wait until my N4 die forever
I was going to buy one but I really think the Note 4 is still doing the business for me and can not see the benefit
Note 4 is doing great job for me for now. Even if my phone dies, wont give so much money for a phone.
i ended up preordering the n8 at 12:01 AM on the 24th. I love my note 4, and now even more so since I picked up the 10000 mha zerolemon extended battery. But I really want a new phone. I will hang on to the note 4 for a long time, it has a special place in my heart.
Was happy with my Note 4 (running Norma V20) untill my girlfrien got a Samsung S8+.
Then my note suddenly was crap
Bought the Oneplus 5, and daaaaaaamn this phone is fast and smooth! Kinda miss the S-Pen and bigger screen but daaaaaaamn the speed on the Onepluss overweights everything. Much faster than the S8+ to my girlfriend also.
i have the motherboard freezes and reboots and my camera front glas is damaged. i realy need a new phone
i paid for the N8 600$ with provider bonus, i think thats a nice price.
Well my note 4 is still better , infrared is an essential tool for me and note 8 dont have it... I guess I will wait until note 9[emoji14]
Way too overpriced, so I am gonna pass on that. My note 4 is still running like day one, minus the battery which can be replaced easily replaced.
I'm extremely disappointed with Note 8.
Curved edges (without any alternative) mean that the screen will be much more fragile, and will give you glares on the edges. It is both more fragile AND more expensive to replace than flat screens (we've seen that since S7 edge). If that's not enough, the back is now not durable, it's made of glass and you can break it too.
For me personally, one of the biggest NOs of Note 8 is its heavy weight: 200 grams is much more than already too heavy 167 grams of Note 4. About 3 years ago i have changed Galaxy S3 (100 grams) to Note 4 (176 grams) and the change was drastic... It hurts to talk half an hour or more on Note 4, and in general it's too heavy. I sense its weight all the time, every day, and every day wish it were lighter.
The battery is not removable, and it's real PITA. In my Note 4 a battery fully lasts only 1 year, then starts degrade like crazy (overheating during charge; phone turns off at 5, then 10, then 30% etc). I have got my 3rd battery already! With Note 4, maybe would be able to replace it via service center, but it will be more time consuming, more expensive, you will get your device disassembled so it will no longer be like new (lots of glued parts inside), and you will have to trust all your confidential or sensitive data to be given to the service center with your phone.
Why only QuickCHarge 2 is supported (like in Note 4), why not at least QuickCharge 3??
Where are real innovations? Like no bezels screen (Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, or Sharp Aquos Crystal 2), or stereo speakers (last years' ZTE Axon 7)???
This phone costs 500€ or less. 500€ is an absolute maximum one should pay for note 8 at the start of the sales (assuming all the abovementioned minuses), and then the price should drop. I would probably pay no more than 300€, as curved screen and non-removable battery just impose so much programmed obsolesce, that i refuse to invest more.
Realistically, i'm still on Note 4 with a refreshed battery, with an optimized rooted rom and efficient kernel (android 4.4.4), everything flies, and i do not upgrade as i have seen too many negative complaints about 5.x and 6.x ROMS. The device is fast and fits my needs (except being too heavy), however I really want a new, faster device with more modern OS, preferably Android O.
In the short term, if an Android O ROM will become available for N910F, i'll give it a go.
In the long term, i guess i will be migrating to a reasonably price edgeless device (must be QHD Amoled, preferable 6.2-6.3), very likely Xiaomi Mi Mix 2.
Samsung just leaves no other options, it does ignore its customers' needs.
I'm begrudgingly moving to the Note 8 because I have no other penabled smartphone options on the market; this is a niche Samsung has all to itself until someone dares to compete.
Normally, I'd keep the Note 4 still, but I'm in a bit of an unusual predicament: an unofficially SIM-unlocked Sprint N910P variant on T-Mobile since the end of January, largely because we all know what happened to the Note 7 and I didn't want to chance buying another Note 4 with all this talk of eMMC failures. Lately, I can't even get 3G on T-Mo for some reason despite it having worked before (4G never worked because Sprint locked out the bands on their variant), and my call quality's turned to crap.
In short, my hand was forced due to a carrier switch resulting in subpar network performance on my current phone, and had my family heeded my advice two years ago, we would've switched that much sooner.
At least Samsung will take $200 off for trading in an old S5 in working order, and we've got a pair of Sprint S5s not doing much anyway since the switch. That makes the cost of the Note 8 a bit easier to stomach, alongside the pre-order promo... but only a bit. (Ironically, they wouldn't take Note 4s for trade-in, but there's no way in hell I'm giving up mine like that anyway. I like having an IR blaster for those things I didn't get remotes with!)
As a bonus, I won't have to deal with any carrier branding BS this time. If there's an unlocked variant that costs as much as all the major carrier-locked variants anyway, sometimes even a bit less, why the heck would anyone NOT get the SIM-unlocked version? (Bootloader unlocking is probably a pipe dream for North American models now, though. Thanks a lot, Samsung... if not for import models being even more expensive for a litany of reasons, I would've gone that route.)

I'm still on the original Note 4 and also have a brand new spare one that I have never had to use. That may be going on eBay!
Think I'm gonna wait until my upgrade is due in December to see how this pans out. Not too sure about the lack of capacitive buttons but the dual 12mp camera is a biggie for me. Hopefully a working root will be in place to disable Bixby and all the other Samsung crap.
Found out today I have a permanent 25% discount with Vodafone UK so £45 a month is acceptable.

No. Note 8 has the same hardware as the Oneplus 5, but has bloatware OS instead of "stock" android.
So it will be slower.
Hi guys I've just got the note 8 on contract question is do you guys think I should wait for the s9 plus or keep the note 8
I'm happy with the note 8 only thing I'm jealous of from the rumours is the stereo speakers
Apart from that I don't see what more they can improve on that will over take the note 8 maybe the camera but as far as I know ain't they using the same displays 1440p ect?
Thanks
You should keep the note 8, wait for the s9+, buy a Nokia 3310 in the mean time and then wait some more for the note 10. :silly:

Lol I know it was a silly question suppose I was just wondering if people thought it was with the wait or it will just be a incremental update of the s8 plus ect
stereo speakers, camera, processor.... those seem to be the selling points really, however... no s-pen so not for me.
I'm not a good enough photographer to use/know the difference between S9+ and my Note 8, processing power... well my note8 have plenty already.... as for the speakers... well, no matter what, mobile phone speakers will never be all that great, if you want good sound go buy nice earbuds.
I doubt I would consider the S9+ an actual upgrade over the Note 8
Check the web, plenty of specs already there and decide for yourself. And in 4 days you'll see the official one.
Sent from my Galaxy Note8 using XDA Labs
As I always point out, a note user considers the s pen as the number one factor, if not, go for a S series, a pixel, a V series, a xperia, I dont know, any real fine flagship
Thanks guys just with me having 14 days to decide but I'll properly keep the note 8 something special a out the note series
I'll have a look at some decent buds now any recommendation that have nice sound any with a nice dac too
Thanks again
I'd tell anyone outside of XDA to go for N8, especially when S9 comes out as it will most definitely get a price drop.
However, in XDA, many will say S9, all due to Project Treble.
If you dont fiddle with your phone, stay with N8. We still dont have much info on Treble, but the way the tables have changed, technically, Sammy should adapt it.
Note 9 and S9/S9+ Skip. Note 10 or Galaxy X Give me! The S9+ slightly better then Note 8. You just contract phone. Chances are you had to put $200-300+ down payment. Plus the months you use till S9+ comes out which avg. $20-40. Then let's say you want a S9+ That's another $200-300 down and start all over with payments. Is it really woth it to have a slightly better Note 8? No.
Even the Note 9 rumors specs/features not making me want to get it. Will wait for Note 10 or Galaxy X. $1k a year for a phone? That hurts. Seems best to skip a gen and get a true upgrade. This Note 8 is a powerhouse so I am sure it will be good for 2-3 years.
That's just my opinion though. Some people want the hottest phone every year. That's fine it's your money spend how you want.
Thanks just checked what project treble is sound promising do you think the note 8 would get it?
I had the s8 plus xperia xz premium and the iPhone 8 plus and switched to the note 8 so looking to stick with the device for at least around a year lol need my phone addiction to calm down a bit
But if there isn't much of a difference between the s9plus to the note 8 what we know of anyways then I'll properly keep the note 8
Does anyone know on any rumours of what dac will be in the s9
Wait for 6.5" Note 9.
Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
Sounds like spoiled bratty question.. no offence anyway like pen stay with note.. otherwise S series
I was wondering the same and ended up picking up the Note 8 directly from Samsung. They were willing to give me $350 for my Edge 7 which is more then I would get on Ebay and they tossed in the Icon X 2018. With how carriers do phones now with these stupid leases and no subsidizing. I'd rather pay $600 for a Note 8, then $800 for a S9+ in a few weeks that hasn't been tested mainstream yet.

Why do you want to change your note 8? What do you dislike about it? I would consider anything else except a note 9, as a downgrade
I dislike the battery.I absolutely hate the speaker.It's shameful for a device of this price.I also dislike the slow updates but that is a Samsung issue overall.Touchwiz launcher is horrible but that's an easy fix.All that being said nobody makes as good of a screen as samsung,I adore the camera and the s-pen is an absolute delight.I don't know about upgrading to the note 9 simply because that'd be a net loss of 500$ for only 6 months of usage on my note 8 but I'm positive I'll be getting the S10/Note 10
I think, there are more then enough people who needs every 6 month a new device.
I don't know why.
Don't be afraid to hit the "Thanks" button if someone helped you. It don't hurts

Nothing as such I just wanna change I am hating its curve screen which has no use at all and not a single screen protector fix on it (tried 4 so far)
I like OP6 but then its camera is not as good as Note 8 camera is, secondly it has no HDR for Netflix and Amazon and its vibrations are so so weird!!
I like LG G7 ThinQ though havent tried it yet!

You will probably have a difficult time with that question in this forum since we're here because we like/love the Note series of phones. With that being said I don't disagree with the speaker part, I'm hoping the Note 9 will have stereo speakers, preferably more robust speakers to boot.
You need to get a full screen adhersion screen protector. They can be found pretty easily you just need to look for them. But I would stick with the Note 8 as it is a very good device and will probably last you for a good few years.

The LG G7 and HTC U12 won't have any better battery life compared to Note 8. PIxel 2 XL would be an option. Huawei Mate 10 Pro or P20 Pro is another option. Note 9 is around the corner with 4000 mah battery which should help
Bought OnePlus 6 Mirror Black 128gb (Black Mirror is so sexy its dope, OnePlus did an amazing job), its amazing freaking fast, smooth, the gestures are nice as well. I love the full screen display with notch though so many people don't like it, you can't compare the camera with Note 8 one's but its not that bad seriously and with Gcam the pictures comes really nice.
Over all experience is so satisfying, I don't miss Note 8 at all :good:

If I were you, I would go probably for the Huawei P20 Pro.
I get puzzled by such threads? The Note series is unique as a mobile phone experience.
The S-pen is whats makes the Note, the Note. If one doesn't need or use the S-pen I cant imagine why one would purchase a Note series mobile? To that end there are no options or other choices to the SG Note 8 until the Note 9 is released shortly.
If the S-pen is not of primary use then there are numerous other mobile phones to explore.
One thing is a certainty in the mobile world, no phone will please all users. That is why there is a plethora of choices. Every mobile made has its positives also negatives, its all a question of needs and usage prioritise.
I need and use the S-pen, it makes my mobile a pocket PC.
If I didn't need the S-pen I would look at mobiles with my second priority and that is good DAC and sound quality. Some prioritise the camera or screen size, the list is endless.

so true, Ryland; plus, why do people thing anyone cares about why they hate a particular phone?
If you hate the note 8, get rid of it and get something else; no one here cares to hear your sob story about why its so awful..
BTW, even though I have had several Note phones, start with the first one, I rarely use the Spen at this point in my life; I like them for their size, their screen, and the "extras" that samsung includes in their phones...Sure, the sound sucks, but there are endless BT/Wired/Wireless speakers and head sets that make that point moot. Battery life is no issue, with wireless charging, and most of the other complaints are just silly ..
anyways, lets hope that people who dont like this phone just get rid of it, and move on, without giving us endless posts about why they hate/hated/got rid of it..no one cares!!!

I had an LG G7 ThinQ for 2-3 days, couldn't stand the UI and is on the small side for me compared to the Note 8. G7 is not slow just different when you use all these phones. Ended up giving it to my Granddaughter after 3 days.
Probably a Note 9 or an iPhone X plus
The note 8's battery is as trash as the Note 5's.
