Presuming this one doesn't explode, what's the lifespan on this phone if you look after it well?

Billy Loo, 17 Sep 2017I am waiting for Galaxy Note 8" screen with 128GB internal ... moreDon't expect 128gb so soon, maybe 1st qtr 18. Deep blue colour even later. It's Samsung strategy, just show you can survive till then!

I waited this phablet with great interest, after a long period of desastruous failure. The coming back is not so flamboyant as Samsung would like to be. The camera is not bad, but far to be enough. I'm waiting for the next Note hopping it will have a better camera with more Megapixeles. This camera have not enough resolution for my expectations.

Unless you meant: dual sim standby + 1 sd card (3 slots)
Let me know when you find this version - I also need 3 slots

Why do you compare 6.3" screen phone with 3300mAh battery

Finally, the GSM Arena review is out for the Note8. The very first thing I always look at is the battery performance.
89 hours endurance time for the Note8, versus 90 hours for the Note7 Exynos versions.
10:20H (Note8) web browsing versus 11:08 (Note7) which means Note8 has 48 minutes less;
14:34H (Note8) Video Playback versus 16:46H (Note7) which means Note8 has 2:12H less.
S8+ has 1:56H more Web Browsing time; 1:29H more Video Playback.
So, that 6% of smaller battery difference (-200mAh) for the Note8 with a slightly larger and brighter screen compared to its 3500mAh siblings are factors to the slightly lesser performance for such a fully packed features smartphone. I guess the updated CPU did not make a big difference.
My personal experience with the Note7 for 45 days has given me only some 4 hours SOT, over a 9-hour stretch with bluetooth connected with a wireless earphones with some 30% left. Which means the battery will only last some 12 hours with the Note7, and even less with the Note8. Looks like I'll be really be plugging in every afternoon before going home.
Way to go with people who keep saying sealed batteries with thin profiles are the future and it's a progressive direction. I say go thick and give us 5000 mAh with an expected heft so our usage is really all day, not to be carrying powerpacks/chargers/charging pads/extra phones so we can top up in the middle of the day.
Sigh, my Note8 arrives within 2 weeks, and I'll be ready to carry the extra bulk of a 30,000 mAh powerbank AGAIN.

TheNE1GHB0R, 16 Sep 2017Yawn. I bring one phone.One phone, one iPad, one E-reader, one SP4, one tab S plus two extra batteries.
I don't need extra batteries. I don't like doing the acrobatic process of switching off the phone and changing the battery then waiting for minutes for the phone to power up.
That's a waste of time.
