Are you dumping your S8 / S8 Plus when the Note 8 comes out?

If the Note8 is gonna be even taller than the S8+, probably not.

I dont like it being so freaking tall.

I will definitely look into it. My biggest thing is battery life. If Samsung can optimize the Note 8 to have as good of battery life as my S8+ using a rumored smaller battery then I'd be more apt to switch. But if battery life is not on par with my S8+ I doubt I will switch.

Nope... I'm good! I'm sure the Note 8 will be awesome and congrats for folks who switch to it, but I'm very satisfied with my phone.

Maybe if the cameras are significantly better. otherwise the V30 looks interesting and what I've been looking for. (I want a bigger G6)

6 GB ram would help entice me to go to the note ...but it better have DeX functionality too or it's a no go.

I'm going to take what I learned with the 8+ and apply to Note 8: I'll wait until I can get my hands on it at Best Buy and compare that way. When the 8+ came put, our Los Best Buy had them on display before my tmobile carrier stores did. If it's taller but 0% wider...wrll that's just silly.

It will probably be the same height-ish and a little wider.... just personal opinion. I am going to touch one in store and depending on the specs I am not sure if I am going to jump on one.

Especially at rumored $1000....

Apparently the N8 is same width, but taller than 8+. Catch the black bar fevah'!

 

[jtcannonball]

Maybe. I'll upgrade to something and give my S8 to my wife.

 

[ClintRo]

That reminds me of this phone from a few years back, i think it was after the Iphone 5 timeframe...LOL

 

[Doug Moffat]

I say absolutely no but if by ill fortune I find myself in a Verizon store with cash in my pocket I can not be held responsible.

No, it's not. The device is wider given it has a larger screen.

 

[Doug Moffat]

I'm resigned to the sealed battery. But I'm addicted to the Infinity Screen and will not purchase a Note without it.

I bet the majority of you will. I'm thinking the Note 8 will be less curvy which is better for some who find it annoying. The Note 7 was almost a success if it wasn't for that battery issue. Who else is looking forward to it? What are you gonna do with your S8?

Edit: my guesstimate for retail price is $849.99 - $879.99. The S8 Plus was $849.99. Who knows, it might even cost more than that and I think people are still willing to shell out money for it like last year.

As I said in a previous thread I doubt I'd leave my s8+ for my note 8 since the note line has the same specs as the s line.

If, and I doubt I will, I'll keep my s8+ around as a backup. It's a great phone. No problems and I love bixby. It understands well and the best part is you can train, correct and give feedback. Other assistants need this. Especially Siri.
