kasey, 05 Jul 2024battery can not last for 1 year , the other rest good Wrong. My battery has lasted for 7 years, just fine. It lasts me all day. You take care of your phone dont constantly have it charging, let it drain to zero every month or so and it works just fine.

I had a Galaxy Note8 until the end of October when I got the Note9. Except for the camera, battery, software and Bluetooth-enabled S Pen that make the 9 superior, the 8 is still an excellent smartphone.

Trying to change my note 8 for a better phone at the same price that I bought it for. My search from last 3 months has not landed me on to a phone that is on par with my beautiful note 8 at same price range. Off late, the ear piece volume has gone low. Tried different options suggested on net, but not seem to fix the issue. May be now I find a solid reason to get a new one, but definitely have to shell out 30% more to satisfy my move from note 8.

my mobile are not working with GPS properly anymore. GPS can locate me and it is updating the location, but it can't navigate. Waze, Google Maps and others can locate me, but they never are changing the cursor (circle) to navigate (triangle). I did a hardreset, but nothing are working. I headed to my local customer service center Smouha Centre in Egypt; I reported the problem to them. The service center installed new fresh most recent operation system, but nothing solved the problem. I requested to meet the head of maintenance center Mr. Markus and he told me that he has the same device note 8 and we started to test car navigation on his device, we both surprised that the problem is in his device too. we agreed that Samsung local in my country will report this problem to Samsung home office. this is a very annoying problem and Samsung should act seriously for this problem asap. It is now clear that note 8 and note 9 has a serious GPS issue, and I expect note 10 will have the same problem. I will never buy a Samsung phone again.

My 1st Note 8 became hot & went off on it's own only after 4 months of use. I was told it's the motherboard. I insisted on a new 1, after a long battle it was replaced. About a year of use of the new one, the screen goes off on it's own. What a mess up phone. I would not recommend anyone buying it. The Note 5 is better.

my Samsung note 8' motherboard is burnt. there was the sound of a little blast from my phone and my fone was turned off. I smelled something is burnt. samsung don't want to replace it just want to repair it. I saw two phone same model on repair center burnt completely. i was lucky my fone was not blasted like that otherwise, it could harm me as well.
this is my 7th day i am calling to Samsung they transferred to one dept to other and pushing me to repair it instead of replacing when i bought this phone only two months ago.they don't understand it is a safety issue. i recommend plz plz plz don't buy this model as Samsung knows very well this issue of the model but they pushing their customer to repair defective phoneAs instead replace it putting their lives on risk until it blast and completely burnt.
