Note: The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is now widely available in retail stores, hence we’ve republished the review.
A year on from the appalling Note7 dispatch, Samsung is back with another Note. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 brags the greater part of the highlights that made the Note7 so great, and furthermore incorporates the new, taller bezel-less Infinity Display design from the S8 and S8+. It likewise brandishes Samsung’s first historically speaking double back camera setup, which incorporates OIS on the two focal points – right now the main smartphone available to do as such.

Design
The Note8 utilizes essentially a similar Infinity Display outline as the S arrangement, with the show bending at the two edges and falling over the sides like a vastness pool. There are no physical catches on the front and just modest bezels at the best and base. I completely adored this plan when I explored the S8, saying that “it truly feels like you’re grasping only a show” and that is similarly as valid with the Note8.
There are some inconspicuous contrasts between the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and the S8 yet they’re difficult to spot. Most importantly, the edges of the show aren’t as adjusted as they are on the S8. As per Samsung, the more squarish corners are intended to give the Note8 a more expert look. Also, the bended edges in favor of the show are more extreme than they are on the S8; this change is to give you a bigger surface range to utilize the S Pen.
