Common issues with note?

[sickle79]

What are some of common issues us users have experienced with the note 8 and I'll start first.The restarting and rebooting for no reason out of nowhere which could take from mins up to an hour for it to stop and may do it once a day to a couple times,which is my biggest complaint.I read on internet that this issue had been an issue with older Samsung's like older notes and galaxy 7 and 8,you would think Samsung would of fixed this **** by now.The force closing me out of my apps with no motion from me,the screen freezes alot and it's hard to use or type on screen alot,you have to really press hard and it's not the screen protector itself.the stylus seems to pop out alot with no motion from me.The battery doesn't seem to last long,especially if you playing games but that's always been an issue with smart phones since my very first one.You would think for all this money these cost,for a car really,they would make the sim n sd card slot holders metal,I'm sure it wouldn't be much more in cost.i truly love my note 8 but this has been the most problematic phone I've ever had in 10 years.it reminds me of cars in a way.i hope those are the only cons of this phone I will experience cause I'm tired of restarting it n putting it in safe only to have the same issues.

You either have a faulty device or are installing something that is causing the device to restart/reboot.

I have never experienced this on my Note 8. Based on the posts in this area, I would suggest that your experience is in the extreme minority.

Games eat battery. Pretty much no way to ignore that. The screen is on 100% and the processors are worked to maximum capacity. Both are a battery drain.

Are you sure you have a note 8?? Not trying to ridicule you , I'm being serious.

I've never had 1 issue will this phone. In fact it's the best 1 I've ever owned and I've owned lots.

I've seen and tried to help you with some of your posts.

It definitely seems you either have a defective unit or you've got a rogue app (or 2) thats wreaking havoc on your phone.

If I were you I would FDR and if that doesn't fix it get another one.

I've never had a reboot issue , honestly I don't think even once. I guess battery life would be one thing I could complain about but it really doesn't bother me as it fast charges

I have never experienced these issues on any of my Notes.

I've had my Note 8 since release and it has been Rock solid the entire time. As stated before, any issues with battery life is kinda offset with the fast charging. At 1 1/2 years old I am just now starting to notice some minor degredation in battery life. I too think this is the best most stable phone I have owned. I think maybe you got a lemon.

Like the others, I've had mine since launch and never had any of the issues you've mentioned...

You would think for all this money these cost,for a car really

If you think these problems are bad just imagine all the problems you'd have with a $1,000 car

 

[sickle79]

Omg,yeah.like my gmc envoy,cost me alot of money to fix and it's still things wrong with it,so I've experienced that already.thank God for my Camry!

Never had a single issue with the Note 8, it's the best phone I've had. I agree with others that you either got a lemon or give dinner something to it to cause those issues.

No issues, besides a battery replacement due to a lot of hard work use, at all since purchased Sept 2017. The Note 8 has been a phenomenal phone!
