I met my friends at a hotel last evening & one of my friends had a Note 10 & we took loads of lowlight pics at the hotel lobby & outside, we compared the pics & they were surprised the way my Note 8 took pics against the Note 10. This phone has a fantastic camera, one of the main reasons I don't wanna upgrade to the latest S or Note series!!

Because u r facing the exact issue which i was facing but after doing this battery reset at various battery levels and finally on 1%. All issues have been resolved. U can also try that once ur mobile turns off at 20% just charge it to 1% and then turn it on and carry out battery reset and then again let it discharge completely. Thats why i have written that i had been doing experiments since long and finally came to this 1% solution. U might have to do this initially on 100% as well and after that ur case will be totally inverse like in my case and after that u have to do it on 1% again

Umair, 12 Dec 2019Ok guys for all those having battery issue, especially the ... moreI would like to try it, but in my case it drops quickly from 20 to like 6%, and then all of a sudden when you unlock the device it turns itself off, so the battery is empty. Do you think it's a good idea to perform this even when the phone says for example 10% battery life left? I rarely get to 1%, it often already shuts down before it even reaches 1%.

Sam799, 12 Dec 2019Yeah, it's a wonderful phone let down by a weak battery. Ho... moreOk guys for all those having battery issue, especially the abnormal battery drain like dropping very quickly from 100% to 50% and then slowly discharging or vice versa, i have figured out a solution after a long series of experiments. Now just let your battery drain from 100% till 1% and once it's on 1% percent then carry out battery reset procedure which is by dialing *#0228# and then clicking on quick start and then waiting till ur screen comes ON itself after going blank for few seconds. Best is that u do this procedure once ur mobile is closest to being discharged and getting of itself. After this let ur mobile completely discharge and then u should charge your mobile to 100% preferably in off state. I hope you will observe reasonable improvement in battery life. Please do post here if u get this experiment successful.

I see a number of you guys didn't get the November update at all. I got both the November and December update, though the December update came in around 2 weeks after I got the November update if I remember correctly. Maybe only some regions got the November update. Mine is an international dual sim Note8.
