That audience was dead. Holy Cow! They should've invited people like us. Then you'd get some excitement going. Just a bunch of jaded tech writers watching.

I thought that too. I think that Samsung knew that I would pee my pants, at that event. I'm not so sure that would of been pristine advertising. Maybe it would? Lol

Right? There were so many awkward pauses that should have been filled with applause.

I know right, if it was an apple conference, everyone would be clapping and standing up to something stupid or something that we seen on other platform. I remember one event, they announce something and this lady stood up clapping... I was like she look so pathetic. ??????????????????

I've watched part of it and clips, they definitely put on a show. Along with watching dozens of reviews and some promotions it definitely pushed me to Preorder! I was going to wait for the note 9, which I anticipate will be amazing (has to be right? double N's Note Nine) plus the in screen fingerprint sensor. But Samsung along with the rest of the internet helped me remember how much I missed my note 7 and decided to get this even more improved note 8.

I don't usually bother with things like this, but the video on that stage was pretty awesome. Loved the 3D effects and how the floor became part of the screen

I remember this too. And it brought a tear to my eye, (I'm a big baby). I too had to go back to my S6 Edge, and I'm so happy they're back! I didn't want the S7 so I didn't get it..

Lol me too. I went back to my note 5. Guy in video was right that day of the note7 recall was a sad day. Now whenever I get the note8 in my hands, it will be a great day lol;)

Aha. I can admit it now that someone else has, the tear in the eye

I absolutely LOVED the effects of that stage. When the Note appeared to rise up from the floor was so stinkin cool. However, I kinda wish they'd cool it with the "comedy" and cheesy skits. Like the dork coming out of the stands and posing for fifteen minutes was really odd. Also, stop designing your presentation with breaks for applause. That's more of a pathetic Apple thing where everyone goes buck wild over the dumbest crap. Most of us when it comes to Android have higher expectations and while we appreciate the cool new features, we aren't going to go nuts over it.

I might have a practise on my husband's S7 edge lol
Lol that would be an adjustment. I had that before the 8+. Big difference. The regular 8 and the 7 edge are about the same size. See this pic I took of the S8 and Note 8.
