Ordered with the original case, which is superb, glad I did. Very pleased with the Note 8, struggling to Sync with Google though, it syncs but nothing appears, early days yet sure I will figure out.

AnonD-612711, 23 Nov 2016Thanks Brandon. Your advice is much appreciated. You're welcome, and about the google play store you could ask the seller install it for you or you could download by yourself on Huawei store is very easy to to.

Took 10 days to get my phone from wonda but just plugged it in using the EE network. 4g popped up right away; btw you probably know this but there are 2 sim spots 1 and 2 and the main sim goes in the far right one. I live in SW london btw ... going to test my speeds and reception for phone calls compared to my O2 phone that I currently use (make sure EE is a good switch). Ill let you know how the 4g signal is in different places - but again so far 4g popped up right away with ee. The phone is massive; but the screen is just Awesome. btw anyone know of any user manual for this online? also what case protector are people getting that they like?

How about Go... moreHi there,I've had the P8 Max and The mate8, and so far the mate 8 is the best when's come to connectivity, the P8 Max only support lte band 7 same as the note 8,and I'm using it in Montreal on Rogers network too, i don"t have the note 8 yet, but I'm sure that it will be the same as P8 Max, you won't get 4G all the time, sometimes you have H+, H, or 3G,which means that the data speed will be slow

I have checked everywhere and just cannot workout why I cannot get 4G- I purchased mine from WONDAMOBILE who continually tell me the phone is LTE compatible with all networks apart from 02 but I havent once received 4G on any sim card I have tried, and it so far should have been compatible with 3 different frequencies that I have utilised- let me know if you get any joy, its the only downside of the phone as its amazing, but having slow data speed is quite annoying when I am out and about

Was it pre-installed? I'm also on Rogers' network but in Montreal. I have the mate 7 presently and Google Play services and store came pre-installed.By the way, is World of tanks blitz available for the note 8? Any help would really be appreciated. Thx.

There is only on version of the phone. It is the Chinese one. Some system apps can't be uninstalled w/o root. So disable the apps that you don't want. I do not recommend disabling Phone Manager because doing so causes problems with the phone.

Hello there, can anyone help me please? I just received mine but it's got some chinese apps that I can´t delete and even though I set it to English it still has some chinese characters.
How can I get rid of this and have it as a European version of EMUI?
Thanks!

AnonD-500535, 11 Nov 2016Hi,anyone using this phone in Canada on Rogers LTE network,... moreI'm using it on Rogers in Vancouver, BC. This Note 8 only uses Rogers B7 LTE band. B7 LTE coverage on B7 seems 100% in most urban areas. I'll drop to 3G at home and while driving in some areas.
If you've used a previous phone with only B7 LTE, this phone will be the same.

Hi, can anyone help me please? I have imported to UK and have not yet been able to receive 4G on any sim card or network, and I have tried EE and Vodafone which support mutliple bands. This is the only downside to this phone which has been amazing so far.
