I tried the s8+ which is supposedly 6.2 inches but got a headache because (1) not only the keyboard display is narrower and harder to work on, (2) the keyboard color is too bright. I will stick to my note 3 with a saner aspect ratio width.

    This is the phone I've been waiting for!

                Not sure weather I should have got the S8+ or not now. I love my S8+ but came from the note 5. If the screen is slightly wider in the Note 8 i will be regretting my purchase, as that was the one thing I would have liked from the S8+. Other than that great device!

                  I'll pass on it. Had note 2 note 3 and note 4, samsung decided to go wrong way all the way with glass backs, non removable batteries, got rid of proper buttons, infrared gone and silly edge screens. Got different phone now, has big flat screen, massive battery, and I cant see myself spending money on samsung phone. There is no point to do so from my point of view.

                          As the regular Note user since Galaxy Note 2 I don't really care if I can use the phone in one hand (if need to do so I just simply use the one handed mode) I just want top specs smartphone with BIG brilliant screen, new gen. S pen, top camera some new smart features and please fully working separated edge screen like the Galaxy Note Edge has. I am a graphic designer so I happily use all your features for your work and have to tell you Samsung.... the Galaxy Note Edge is the best device you made till now so please make the Note 8 the device I would love to buy.

                            Even Canon did a D30 & 30D, D60 & 60D to change the name a little.

                            8.0 & 8 is supposedly clearer definition? Too funny!!

                                        I got used to it now on mu s8+, but I can't just deal with the fact of having to clean my camera lens every time I need to take a pic.
