Review on πŸ’œ Renewed Samsung Galaxy Note 8, 64GB in Orchid Gray for AT&T Customers by Kenta Omura

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

I made the switch from a Samsung S8 Plus to it. The screens are exactly the same; the one on the Note 8 is only marginally bigger. Disappointingly, the battery has failed. The camera brought a smile to my face. The stylus is another interesting feature, but I only use it very infrequently. When I do use it, however, I find that it is very convenient. Has pros: - An excellent smartphone with a stunning 2k AMOLED screen and solid overall performance. - Adorable and free of fleas and ticks Just the one UI shell. - A charger that is wireless. - IP68. - Stylus. - A dual camera setup, a telephoto lens, and a background blur that is "more or less appropriate." The picture quality is superior than that of any other model in the Galaxy S8 family. - A higher RAM capacity than the Samsung S8+. The difference is not very visible; nevertheless, as you wait for the application to be emptied from memory, you are shocked when it simply opens and continues to function as normal. These are some downsides: When in use, it reaches extremely high temperatures. The phone is effective, however the user interface has jerks and lags that make it difficult to use. The Samsung Pay system is definitely cool, but I've never been to a location that wouldn't accept NFC payment. To be fair, though, I haven't run into that problem very often. And Google Pay is able to handle this as well, making it a far more convenient payment option. Despite this, SPay is likely to be a lot more secure. - The battery life is significantly lower than that of the Samsung S8+. It has to be charged a little bit earlier in the evening. While Always on Display is active throughout the night, around 15–20 percent of the Charge is consumed. Without it, 10–15% of the crop is consumed. It's unfortunate that there won't be an update to Android 10 because the whole Galaxy S8 family deserved it, but there won't be one. - This isn't a huge drawback, but there isn't nearly enough stereo. Despite the fact that, due to the nature of the requests, Note 9 was required. OK Google does not function properly (on Android 9), and after the call it will stop listening unless the microphone is on in at least one of the programs that you have open. Because of this, the value of the voice assistant is substantially diminished. This is an issue that affects the entire S8 product line. I am unable to comment on any other Samsungs.
