Merezheva security In terms of its filling and design, this smartphone is similar to the current flagship of the “galactic” family. However, this one has a larger “endless” screen with a high separation ratio, a dual main photo module, and a skin camera with optical stabilization, which obviously improves the S Pen stylus .
Hi-tech assessed strengths and weaknesses
Samsung Galaxy
- Note 8.
- Let's remember that Samsung introduced the Galaxy Note series back in 2011.
- Since then, these devices, which are positioned most importantly for people in creative professions, have set the bar for technological flagships. The last device that had been tested before us was a phablet. On the right, the company missed the “sixth” mark for the name of a similar device for obvious reasons (it was the “winner” Mayday announcement of the iPhone 7), and the release of the Galaxy Note 7 a couple of months after the premiere was completely delayed. In fact, the Galaxy Note 8 phablet itself, which has literally become Samsung’s “right honor,” deserves great respect. Hi-tech also wanted to get to know this new product better.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8: equipment
The traditional black box of the Galaxy Note 8 was packed with a life adapter with support Swedish charging(Adaptive Fast Charging), USB-USB Type-C cable, two adapters (USB Type C-USB and USB Type C-microUSB), tool for elongating the tray, replaceable tips for the S Pen stylus with tweezers for replacing them, dart (internal channel ) ) audio headset under the AKG brand, replaceable earbuds for it and documentation.
Samsung Galaxy Note 8: design, ergonomics
As it was intended, according to the design of the Galaxy Note 8, I repeat in many ways. Only now the new product has become more indestructible, which, however, has had a positive impact on what seems like a slimy device in the valley. Even the back and front panel of the new smartphone, which literally flows one into the other through the frame made of aluminum alloy, is protected by a layer of Gorilla Glass 5. Calling the 6.3-inch Galaxy Note 8 a “shovel” is simply hard to wrap your head around - the “endless” screen is something that retailers have decided to include to add a compact case with dimensions of 162.5 x 74, 8 x 8, 6 mm.
The dimensions of the 6.2-inch are practically invisible - 159.5 x73, 4x8, 1 mm.
At the bottom of the screen, space for virtual buttons on the caravan panel has been removed - the “Recent Programs”, “Home” and “Back” icons.
In this case, the “Home” button, as part of the Always On Display technology, is visible on the locked display (displayed in settings), as before, you can use it to turn on the backlight.
This simulates the tactile pressure of a real mechanical button.
The tension adjustment dial is located on the left edge of the hand using the Bixby virtual assistant button.
The Russian language is a helper who selects a set of services, having not yet mastered it, so you will have to be satisfied with English or Korean, however, the actions of Bixby are already possible without knowledge of the language (about a little lower).
The proud one on the right edge has lost the power/lock button. At the bottom end there was a socket for a 3.5 mm audio connector, a USB Type-C connector (version 3.1, Gen. 1), a hole for a microphone and a “multimedia” speaker, In a row, they transferred a pencil case for the S Pen stylus.
Here it is important to note that the device is certified to IP68, which guarantees full penetration (IP6x), and the robot operates in locked mode (IPx8) with a stretch at a depth of up to 1.5 meters, extending to the S Pen.
The opening for another microphone and the slot that can accommodate a nanoSIM card and a microSD memory card are missing on the top end of the case.
The model SM-G950F, which came before us for testing, is “excellent”. A combination tray, where at one place another subscriber identification module claims to be.
For the Galaxy Note 8, three colors were transferred: “black diamond” (black), “blue sapphire” (dark blue) and “yellow topaz” (golden).
Stained surfaces, as usual, collect not only a rich fingerprint base, but also samples of much more.
Especially in which the phablet flourishes with the fermented “black diamond”, which was given to us for testing.
However, it’s still important. When choosing the Galaxy Note 8, Varto constantly repeats the mantra about the fact that the slimy body prevents the behavior from happening, and Gorilla Glass 5 is not a panacea at all. Samsung Galaxy Note 8: screen

One "multimedia"
Galaxy speaker
Note 8 sounds at maximum volume, like a flagship, it looks like it will deliver clear and good sound. Of course, two stereo speakers wouldn’t bother this phablet. Moreover, with the landscape orientation of the device, it’s easy to block one side of the line. As well, the set includes an AKG audio headset with the same sound logo. This accessory is striking in such a detail as the fabric weave, which turns off the situation when the unraveling of wires turns into a squelching puzzle.
According to the company's preferences, the settings include a number of “colorizers” and a 9-tone equalizer that can be configured.
The Galaxy Note 8 phablet runs on the Android 7.1.1 (Nougat) operating system, the interface of which is based on the proprietary Samsung Experience 8.5 shell.
When you press hard on the icon, any program will open a menu of quick actions. Once the launcher is configured, it is easy to activate the entire program screen or simply place all the icons on the desktop. You can navigate to the program screen by swiping up or down, and you can also display the same icon button on the display. To place the icons, a number of grids have been transferred, including a matrix of 5x6 elements. The large screen size provides up-to-date assistance in using your smartphone with one hand.

The function can be transferred to the additional S Pen, for which it is enough to point the stylus tip at the desired word.
This is how the conversion of the numerical value of foreign currency into rubles is concluded.
The “Live Notifications” function allows you to share animated texts and messages with other smartphones that are supported by GIF images.
Samsung Galaxy Note 8: purchase, highlights
The main feature of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8, without a doubt, is the electronic S Pen, which, in addition, has new functions. The combination of top-end productivity with the largest screen in the history of smartphones, as well as both cameras with optical stabilization in a dual photo module will provide the new phablet with an obvious technological advantage. At the same time, a clear sound, speed and dart-less charging, three options for biometric protection, water and fireproofness of the hull, only confirm its position as a super-flagship. It appears that all models in the Galaxy Note family (except for the main flagships – cheaper products) are primarily designed to reach a small, or stable, audience. In this case, such shortcomings, such as the lack of repair of the fingerprint scanner or the soiled and slimy case, are simply ruined by this high price, which is asking for the Galaxy Note 8 - 69,990 rubles.
Therefore, since the plan does not include the use of the S Pen stylus, then buying a Galaxy Note 8 would, above all, be an incredible waste.
Such a varto would have lost his respect.

Screen
The main highlight of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is the incredibly great Infinity Display. The diagonal is 6.3 inches and the split size is 2960x1440 pixels (QHD+), which provides an incredible pixel density of 521 dpi..
The display panel is designed to display HDR content, like other flagships of the company released in streaming.
On the front of the thin frame of the screen there is a speaker, a facial camera, an iris scanner lens, a number of necessary sensors and that’s it.
The Home button is no longer available, and the tick sensor has moved to

The Note line from Samsung was never a mass market, but there were always dozens of hundreds of sales compared to the current flagship with a larger diagonal.
The reason is not only the price, but the positioning of the device, which is aimed at three small groups - those who like flagships and geeks, as well as the business audience, for some important additional functions, plus a small demand for these whoever loves is tiny.
For the remaining two groups, the name itself reflected a sensor device, a notebook, or a daily, electronic notepad.
The business audience for this device has always been strong, but today the release of the Note line will reach a fundamentally new level, due to the appearance of such an accessory as DeX, which turns the phone into a full-fledged computer or similar there is.
In the B2B segment, the company's plans for Note 8 are very large, this device is being used by corporations in the framework of existing and new projects, and there are no analogues to such a solution, which allows us to talk about successful implementation.
There are songs that we can always hear about the fact that these and other companies purchased Note 8 for their smartphones. As DeX gradually penetrates the corporate market, it may become a trend, but it’s difficult to guess here. From the looks of it, the Note 8 has only one or two competitors in the market, compared to the iPhone 7 Plus and its continuation.
The reason is that, in many cases, two of the most expensive solutions compared to direct competitors are comparable, which is exactly what we will find. In this case, the stench is also similar to the first glance of the solution in the cameras (optical zoom), which gives even more similarity in the eyes of buyers. In principle, who
price segment
de facto, there are only two names - Apple and Samsung, sales of all other devices become 5%, and the number of these devices is more than a dozen.
However, people living together do not choose them, but rather rely on familiar names.
For buyers of Note 8, this is the ultimate solution, which is expected to last for a long time, since it may be possible to invest in the virus, which is relevant for at least a couple of rocks, or even more, to be sure
The dimensions of the devices can be equalized, they don’t grow as much, a couple of millimeters makes it impossible to say that the Note 8 is great - it fits easily in the hand, it’s incomparable, it’s easy to work with With my hand.
So, the dimensions of Note 8 are 162.5 x 74.6 x 8.5 mm, S8+ is 159.5 x 73.4 x 8.1 mm.
The culprit is the finger sensor, which is located on the back surface, as in the S8+, but it was moved so that it would not accidentally get dirty at the end of the camera.
Samsung was not able to make progress with the sensor under the slope, moreover, it may not be in the S9, as serious engineering difficulties arose, as did Apple itself.
It is unfortunate that the manufacturers are trying to buy the technology of a third company through their purchase and are fighting over their propositions, confident that they themselves will become the first and spoil such a decision.
Up to date with Moto Z2 Force
The body itself seems to be equipped with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 (a special version without marking, created for this device). IP68 protection is not compromised anywhere, the device can safely live under water. The internal layout of the device has been carefully rebuilt in order to promote protection after falls, so that water cracks do not appear and water cannot damage anything in the middle.
The placement of buttons and roses can easily be avoided with this on mobile devices, including the Bixby button (can be enabled in the menu), as well as the slot for SIM cards that come with a memory card.
There’s no way to insert the S-Pen in the end; they’ve been foolish enough to get rid of it.
So, just like all the basic options for the stylus, you can write by hand on a locked screen, add guesswork (expanded functionality) and mark the edges of the screen.
The S-Pen itself, without noticing any major changes, has been updated from the Note 7, except that it is the same pen, more handy and practical.
Having changed the iris scanner, now having removed the new version of the download and software, it works a little more in the dark, in the light of day, about the same.
We have added a new algorithm, the more often you use the scanner, the better your eyes will recognize it.
The scanner has become slightly foldable, but still less secure, the lower iris scanner.
On the other hand, it is actually impossible to unlock the device using a photograph, but you can watch our video.
Russia has three color options available - “black diamond”, “blue sapphire”, “yellow topaz”.
There are many color variations for which device is greater. Display The diagonal of the screen is 6.3 inches, although the difference with the S8+ is practically not noticeable; the 0.1 inch that was added was minimally reflected in the height of the device, and not in its width.
- And since the S8+ is a great TV, this effect will be less noticeable.
- No shovel, the food will definitely be set steadily, but if you watch the movie on your screen, the food will fall out by itself.
- Geometry – the same 2 to 1, separate production – 2K, or, more precisely, QuadHD+.
- You can also change the separation of the screen, the smaller the separation, the longer the device will operate.
- The screen type is SuperAMOLED, but, as in the past, this is the last generation, which has been painted with a lot of characteristics that are invisible at first glance.
- Let's take a closer look at the DisplayMate to see what's changed on the device.
Follow-up on DisplayMate can be found. The next screen on the Note 8 is called the shortest of the other screens It’s not good to take up more space and spend this hour.
In real life, it is practically impossible to see a strong difference between the screens of the S8+ and Note 8, the screens simply appear differently in different light levels, and in order to appreciate this difference, you need to study them.
Ale on the street, in the bright minds of the bright minds, you will see this difference.
I can say that this screen is the smallest on the market, and if I test the Note 8 and iPhone 8 Plus at the same time, I can say that the screen on the other one looks old and not so clear.
In settings, you can not only adjust the color temperature, but also adjust the colors if you think that something is wrong with them.
The Always On Display robot mode allows you to display images or a screensaver in standby mode.
For two applications, the device consumes approximately 400 mAg to operate this function for 20 years.
I don’t understand why China is always eliminating versions of devices that cost more memory.
So, in the USA and Europe the model comes with 6 GB of RAM, while for the Chinese market a little later there will be a device with 8 GB of RAM.
Built-in memory 64 GB plus memory cards up to 2 TB. The version with 128 GB of internal memory will appear later, availability in Russia is unknown. For the USA, the model will be released on Snapdragon 835 (10 nm), and the axis for the world, including Russia, will be Exynos 8895 (also 10 nm), which we know for S8/S8+.
The productivity of the chipset is typical for high-end models such as Samsung, but it is not maximum for synthetics.
If you marvel at the productivity of real plants, you will see that the device is one of the best.
Common problems with the interface, common problems with typing
standard add-ons
And also additives from other companies (on any device you can install something that will increase its productivity, but will it still work? Especially the cost of additional shells). Battery The Li-Ion battery is 3300 mAg, which is much smaller than the battery installed in the S8+ (3500 mAg). Tim no less, the equipment will ensure the same hours of work for the same scenarios. For those who use the device for a new cat, it’s up to one day of work, or with all the adjustments, two or three days of work and 7-8 years of work on the screen.
At the moment, S8+ is the most popular among flagships, especially with such a screen size.
The Note 8 has all the same features.
As before, there is no-dart charging, built into the body, Swedish charging and extreme energy saving mode, everything here is without changes.
LTE boundaries Advanced shows the maximum speed of the theoretically possible (2x2 MU-MIMO). On the Moscow border, Megafon has real speed, since it was possible to stop downloading files in an hour, it reached 430 Mbit/s (theoretical limit is 450 Mbit/s).
To demonstrate this fluidity, wider tests are not suitable, they are simply not designed for such measures and fail (the size of the test file is too small so that it does not go well in such programs). From the point of view dartless interfaces
Wi-Fi is being improved, new algorithms are being developed. As soon as possible, Samsung has adapted everything that has appeared in this hour. The Wi-Fi repeater function is not found anywhere, it’s on your device.
Features of the implementation of Bluetooth 5.0 mean the ability to simultaneously connect two headsets or others
sound devices
, so you can hear the same music or marvel at the film with other people.
As usual, you can set up the Pro mode, since you can select any of the camera parameters and change them at the time of shooting.
And this is what the camera interface and setup looks like.
Samsung was not the first to enter the market with such solutions for the camera, but it completely avoids the defect in the iPhone 7, ideologically, they are however different, for example, because you need to use it on your Huawei devices (another black-and-white module , gives glycine).
Let's see what optical zoom looks like on a Samsung camera.

We can say that the camera on the Note 8 is one of the best on the market, and has a wide range of capabilities, both in manual and automatic mode.
| In fact, this camera can and should be used with the iPhone 8 Plus, and on the iPhone side there will be a portrait mode, and the axis landscapes, night mode, and also the camera in the surroundings will still be for the Note 8. The problem is that you yourself take photographs as often as possible. | Let’s talk about those that any of these devices look like a definite winner, I won’t become one. |

Literally a bunch of pictures from the Galaxy S8+.
Galaxy Note 8
Galaxy S8+
So that you can appreciate this device, let's see how it takes photographs just like the OnePlus 5, which has similar cameras.
And a few more photos taken at different times on Note 8.
Dynamic focus (blurring the background) is 1.2 meters, and after taking the picture you can select in the editor how much the background will be blurred.
I’ll start from the fact that most people regard the S Pen as an additional and practically unnecessary thing, and they rarely use the stylus supplied with the body.
On the other hand, there is a creative minority that has grown to love little things, and they, for example, don’t let go of the S Pen from their hands, create little things, sketches, in a word, constantly use the stylus.
It is impossible to understand one or the other categories of people; they have different needs and needs.
It’s a pity, it’s tiny, there’s a stick-club-mug in front of me, and as a result, a little man, I haven’t gotten used to, and I’m bearing him to myself without any special mystical gifts.
For people like me, here I have painted patterns, you can make templates, it looks really beautiful. For the S Pen, it is possible to deprive the device of the note, write on the screen without unlocking the phone.
It’s really funny in the past, if you need to memorize everything and don’t need to write it down.
Short notes on the run, which are also synchronized with the gloom.
Those that use the S Pen under water, in my opinion, are a waste of time.
It’s unlikely that scuba divers will use their phones when they’re stressed out, but at a depth of two meters the water will just let it leak.
And the axis that can be written under the board is already a real scenario of stagnation, which is easy to identify.
The pen, as before, uses 2048 levels of pressure.
The S Note program has a painting mode, which allows you to mix colors that were not available before.
I can’t say that I’m already actively cleaning the S Pen, sometimes it happens that I don’t get it for many days, sometimes a couple of times a day I scan small things on screenshots, I scroll through pictures.
But I can say for sure that it helps me to get rid of the routine tasks that I endure hour after hour. There is simply nothing like this in other phones. Recognizing handwritten text has become noticeably better, but for me, it’s not as easy as just typing text on the keyboard, although perhaps it’s important. There are fewer and fewer people singing about how to write with the skin of fate. Moreover, the S Pen is not a stylus for writing, but for writing, in which the stylus can be easily replaced with a finger. In the report video, I talk about how the S Pen works, how text is recognized, and much more. DeX desktop mode – analogue of Continuum from Microsoft
We have a solution for corporate investors, it is unlikely that it will be popular from the start, but not a good one for development. DeX implemented support remote access
to your desktops, such as Citrix, VMware and Amazon Web Services, there is nothing new and nothing new.
In principle, on Android you can quickly access these services.
The performance of the commercial version of DeX is administrable, does not require any manipulation, and can be played in games. In a word, increase respect for your ability. Bixby assistant - ideology and practical implementation The idea of Bixby is closely based on Google Now, which combines voice functions, for example, voice recognition for commands (the loss of S Voice), and at the same time analyzes what is displayed on your screen, then minds but understand the context for which you you say. With the right button you click on Bixby cards (again, an analogy with Google Now), you can edit them, add programs and information from them.
For example, the assistant knows that you will call for such a number at this hour, and recommends that you do so. Name it exact functions
Bixby is not possible to be intelligent, at the presentation it will be cut down to the point of impossibility, so, on a daily basis
voice input , you won’t show up until the end of the month. This transfer system is clearly bad, it needs to be trained so that millions of people begin to profit from Bixby, in such systems it does not happen otherwise - the more they profit, the more the stink disappears.
Full version of Bixby with voice commands, tips and other information will be released in early 2017, along with the latest device on Android 8. Currently, instead of Bixby, we have a camera with image recognition, as well as a program for planning the day.
Multimedia capabilities, software features Samsung has reworked the Clean UI a little bit, now it has become lighter and easier to use, the meanings of the three touch keys have changed, the icons have changed, however, look at the picture.- You can take screenshots of any kind, record small GIF files from the screen, draw not just rectangles, but ovals, and draw anything you want with your finger.

The set includes AKG headphones, specially tuned for Samsung flagships; you can hear them without any noise with other devices, and they won’t give you a stale sound.

The software has a lot of bugs that can greatly interfere with your

, There were a lot of functions on the front devices, but we will not immediately repeat briefly about the features of them.
For example, when there is an emergency notification (three clicks on the live button), the phone sends an SOS notification, and also records sound for 5 seconds and a photo from the face camera.
The recorder has an interview mode, recognizes voices and translates text (the Google engine is used, it works almost any way).
Incredibly, the device supports the new world of Samsung Pay, which can benefit those who already pay with a smartphone.
