What were your thoughts? Are you planning on upgrading?
 
Note 8 pics

@BB. I prefer the Orchid on the S8/+. The new Orchid doesn’t look bad... but different glossy look. Like nail polish color or something. Damn this is a tall phone. Ok with the width... but the length :/

Re: Orchid Gray vs Orchid Gray pic

The Note 8 looks more gray than orchid gray in that pic. I preordered the black one instead just because I already have the orchid gray S8.
 
Bestbuy Pictures and Compare to S8 Plus

Just left the store. I really like it. The curves are even less noticeable compare to S8 Plus. The more squarish shape is much more "complete" looking.

Enjoy the Pictures! 20170824_164704.jpg20170824_164656.jpg20170824_163428.jpg20170824_163426.jpg20170824_162614.jpg20170824_162607.jpg20170824_162516.jpg20170824_162510.jpg20170824_162458.jpg

Re: Orchid Gray vs Orchid Gray pic

Yeah... they basically took out all the orchid and left just the gray.

The Note 8 looks more gray than orchid gray in that pic. I preordered the black one instead just because I already have the orchid gray S8.

Looks like those who wished for s-note to return will be disappointed. Lol
 
Re: Playing w/Note 8 at Verizon Now...

I think this weekend I'm going to go to either best buy or verizon and check the note 8 out. I want to put my note 5 next to the note 8.
 
The back isn't slick

Got my hands on the Note 8 yesterday in VZW store as I pre-ordered mine. One thing I haven't heard anyone speak about,that impressed me, is what the case is made of.
It was easier to grip.
I noticed it first off. Partially it's due to the thinner but taller design. That makes it noticeably easier in the hand.
The back material is not 'sticky', but it's definatly not slick like the others have been.
IDK, it's hard to explain and I'm sure I'll have a case on mine, but something is different...in a good way...about the grip on the back of the Note 8.

The rest of it is truly as amazing as it's touted to be. I couldn't get over how big it was but didn't feel bigger. Felt much more comfortable in my hand.
I literally told the rep as I stood there 'Let's do it man, take my money!'.

Re: The back isn't slick

Nice! Would you say it's more resistant to fingerprints than the last few Samsung phones?

Side by side.

Well, to be honest, the whole thing is screen. I didn't notice any outstanding fingerprints. But when you consider that literally there is just a small edge, there is very little to get fingerprints on. I mean the screen will be, but that is what it is with any phone now.
I can say that strickly from a visual standpoint, this phone is truly a sleek, sexy thing of beauty.
 
Re: The back isn't slick

I was in Best Buy yesterday when the Samsung rep had just gotten back with the floor model, so he let me play with it. It is a nice phone, it's going to suck putting a case on it.

I agree. But I drop my phones. It's happened before. And considering this thing is mostly fragile screen, it's going to be interesting to see how these things hold up. Anyone seen any drop test?
