AnonD-292154, 16 Jul 2017I'm sure that note 8 will have more than that.Don't be . See Note 5 and Note 7, they were copies of S series with a gimmick or two sprinkled in.

The last Note was Note 4, 50% faster processor that S series, higher resolution, much bigger battery and filled to the brim w features.

Enter 2016-2017. Probably less battery than S series, same SoC, same Ram, same camera, same everything... OK maybe a second camera.

The Note series is dead. Ever since Note 5 an imposter took its place.

    TechLover1, 15 Jul 2017Haha excellent. Obviously looking absolutely forward! But a... moreAgreed. Eggs crackly like you said. Plus it's Samsung and it's the Note.
    They really need to stop holding back so much. Especially for 900-1000 price tag.

          If anything it's 5 months late (they could just add pen and dual cameras to their + model; only they don't because it's milking time).

                                You got the S8s and you got a screen with similar ratio, why on earth would someone launch such a similar phone? What are the differences between the Note 8 and the S8? The bigger screen and the S-pen? Come on.
                                18:9 screen ratio for Note taking. In what world is this considered to be a proper notebook?

                                  Haha excellent. Obviously looking absolutely forward! But as I almost always say, hopefully it will really offer/include all the best current world tech. For so many reasons, to mention only two main: 1 after the global fiasco, and 2, because of the ultra tough competition and even more than ever before. With other great phones on the way, such as: V30, Pixel's 2 (mostly XL), iPhones (7s/8, etc), Nokia 9, Moto Z2 (Forse), Huawei Mate 10 (Pro, etc), Xiaomi Mi Note 3 & obviously Mi Mix 2, etc. So it is absolutely evident that the competition is really tough, and so Samsung doesn't have a choice but to launch a true powerhouse (if they want to compete, and they haha absolutely want!!!).
