Samsung Galaxy Note 8 to have 4K display and Bixby AI assistant

03 January 2017
The phone will have the newest Samsung voice assistant and better resolution for enhanced VR experience.

Sort by:

4k display and about 4k battery. S8 will blow as note, and suck on battery life. 4k screen requires at least a 5k battery on sammy bloatware.

      Anonymous, 03 Jan 2017Bye bye good battery life.It will work with 4k res only for viewing photos and 4k video or movies , if you have 4k movies. The rest of the operations like menu and web browsing will be Qhd like now.

        4k screen is great indeed. It will let you play games at 4 times lower framerate and consume battery 4 times faster. Fantastic

          that report needs a ton of salt. the real flagships are the s series so thats where 4k goes. as for the electronic short causing fire.. very doubtful

                            4K is pointless and outdated.
