Should i get the Note 8 or wait for the 9

[Android Central Question]

I originally had a Note 5, but while trying to replace the carge port i managed to destroy literally everything on the phone, so now im using an old HTC M7, which isnt quite up to date lol. Now im looking at getting the Note 8, but i keep seeing rumors about the 9 coming out and possibly being alot better than the 8. So i figured i would ask the experts here, do y'all think i should wait for the 9? Or just get the 8?

The Note 9 will most certainly have higher specs when compared to the Note 8. It could even have a gigantic battery and 6.4" display. So in that respect, perhaps you should wait.

On the other hand, if your HTC M7 can't hold out 'til then, the Note 8 is available now and is a very good phone.

In short, what do you need... the best you can get right now, or the best you can get several months from now?
