As a representative of the Android camp, Samsung's annual flagship Galaxy Note8 was released on August 23. This year's S8/S8+and Note8 are stressed by the accident of Note7. As usual, in addition to the S Pen, Note8 has also upgraded the appearance (screen proportion), screen, camera and other parts to varying degrees. The comprehensive selling points of the new machine include: a more robust appearance, a higher screen share, Spin and dual camera with dual optical anti shake. Before the detailed evaluation, let's take a look at the real appearance of the mass production machine.
We got T-Mobile this time, The special change this year is that Samsung has started to unify the model of the model, the Korean version is unified as SM-N950N, and the American version is unified as SM-N950U, but their firmware and network standard support are still different.

Appearance and workmanship
Compared with the "pebble" round design of S8/S8+, the design language of Note8 should be obviously rigid and commercial, The corners and screen corners become smaller. The screen proportion is more impressive. When the screen increases, the width of the border, forehead, and chin does not change significantly, making the screen proportion higher 。
Note8's The rounded corners of the four corners of the curved screen become smaller, but the two sides of the screen are more curved, making the front visual effect of the border narrower. Yes After the real machine of Note8, the original S8/S8+with a shocking screen share was immediately defeated. In addition, the body of Note8 will become more slender in terms of visual experience and hand feel.
What we got is the color matching of wilderness grey, which is darker than the smoke crystal grey of S8/S8+, and the rear cover has a slightly pink purple wind direction. However, the change of coating makes it seem a little plastic, which is not very satisfactory.
The key layout is still left volume, Bixby and right power supply; Top sim card slot (dual nano SIM and or card slots) and sub microphone; Bottom headphone connector, Type-C connector (USB3.1 supported), main microphone, speaker, and S Pen.
Note8 inherits many details of S8/S8+, and even retains the design of "USB interface, microphone not in a straight line, vice microphone not in the axis". There is no chamfer or other edge processing on the edge of the speaker opening (most flagship ships will chamfer the edge of the opening), which will slightly cut the hand when crossing. The card slot of our mass production machine is slightly pushed out by the waterproof washer, but the front and back glass panels are closely combined with the metal frame.
S pen
Like Note7, the top cover of Spin is made of plastic. The top cover protrudes out of the body, making it easier to press. The size and feel of Spin are not different from Note7.
The detailed evaluation will be completed in the near future, please look forward to it.
