Just bought a Note 8 through T Mobile. I have usually disliked Samsungs, and I came from an iPhone 7, but I have to say this phone is outstanding! Really glad I chose this over an iPhone X.
 
Welcome to the Note 8, and glad to see another fellow Tmobile user :) What color is yours and what case(s) do you have so far?

This is the first phone I've amassed a collection of cases for. I have 4 and 3 more on the way. Have had mine since Sept 7.
 
I too was very hesitant to buy another Samsung after a slew of issues 4-5 years ago. What sold me was the very high screen quality...nothing else compares.

I thought I would run into the typical Samsung lag but I haven't had it stutter at all. This is truly an outstanding device.

Congrats!
 
It's been a great phone for me.

I usually have never liked Samsungs. Their abhorrent skin blended with an extremely dull design and horrid performance never made it to my recommended list.

The S6 started the change for me, and the Note8 seems to be closer than ever to what I have wanted from Samsung in years. The Note7 was nearly there, but it also isn't exactly speedy as well.
 
Apple user for years. Actually bought a 256gb IphoneX in December and used it for a week and returned it for the note 8 and got the Bogo S8 for my son. So impressed! Very clean interface and loving the Spen, and the secure folder is genius. The screen is wonderful, and it feels no bigger than my previous Iphone7+ Very well engineered phone.
 
I've had the Note 8 for about 2 1/2 months and it has been absolutely amazing. I have had every Note since the Note 2, but went to the iPhone 7 Plus after the Note 7 debacle. I did try the iPhone X for about 3 weeks in December just to see what it was like. Absolutely no comparison to the Note 8. Definitely aimed at two different markets. I'll be nice and leave it at that.

You made a great choice. The Note 8 will serve you well.
 
After having my LGV10 boot loop twice in less than a year, I swore off LG. Got a Note 8 a few days ago. I am really loving it! So super fast and the screen is amazing!!!! I've been stalking this forum for hints and tips about all it can do. Learning more all the time!!!

Orchid Gray and I bought the Tech21 screen protector and Samsung rugged case with the kickstand. I love it so far!

Congrats on buying a GREAT phone.

T-MOBILE here as well.

I also chose orchid grey. To me I like the sides of the phone being a shiny silver, and how the light catches it.

I have had zero glitches, zero slow downs, or anything wrong in the 2 1/2 months I have owned my Note 8!!!

I purchased a tech 21 evo clear case. But I didn't feel it protected as good. So I went to a Best Buy and picked up a
(Speck - Presidio CLEAR Case). I love this case. It's clear. Shows the orchid grey color. And really protects the phone.

You will love your new Note 8!
 
Samsung did good with this one. They made it so good it's boring, everything just works. no hiccups, no wierdness. Very apple esc but without the obnoxious.
