The guy at best buy let me play around with his working sample unit while he set up my preorder. That camera is amazing. I have wide hands and not long fingers....it was a perfect fit. I thought the N7 was good but the N8 just seemed to fit better. Can't reach everywhere on the phone one handed like I can on the N7 but that's ok.
I like writing it more than the N7.
It I mention the camera is amazing. 2x is just a game changer.
The black is a monolith.
I got the fingerprint friendly grey.
always bet on black
ill have the alcantara case on the beast so fingerprints matter not.
appreciate the johnny on the spot review boss... :good:
ok just checking but you said, "I thought the N7 was good but the N8 just seemed to fit better. Can't reach everywhere on the phone one handed like I can on the N7 but that's ok."
So it fits better than the N7 did in your hand, but you cannot reach everywhere on the screen like you could on the N7???? hmmmmm
I have no expectation of reaching everywhere on the 8.
It feels better....that's all I can say.
I still have my 7 and took it to Best buy to compare.
I can still handle it one handed, but like on the s8+, I sometimes maneuver it on my hand to reach parts of the screen. I don't mind that at all I'm used to it.

I just got to check one out at the Samsung booth at best buy. I have a Motorola Z Force, had the N7 and previous notes before that. I miss the pen. I was surprised to see that the width is pretty mich the same as my Z force. Its just about 3/8" taller when eyeballing them one ontop of the other. But the amount of screen real estate you gain is nuts. I like it, even more than he N7 and I was glad to read that I can get the bonus stuff wihout having to get some sort of phone plan/payment plan.
I watched the Destiny 2 trailer on a display model today and it was gorgeous. I didn't think much of the infinity screen before, but it's super sexy.

It is such a huge night and day difference with less bezels in terms of looks, but I usually run a case on my phones so it has never been important to me. But I do enjoy how the overall size of the device benefits from this. The taller slimmer profile will take a bit of getting used to though since my Moto Z feels almost square next to the N8. I guess I better order a good case to protect those nice curved panels.

and it felt TINY!!!
it was really a mind bender. the phone that was at one time the biggest and fastest phone on the market felt like a tiny slug. it was pretty surreal... 3 weeks ago the Evo felt big... now it feels tiny.
I am loving the GNote and haven't had a second thought about the purchase (except that i am exchanging the blue for a white one)...
This reminds me that back in mid-2010...I nearly switched to Sprint because of the EVO. I remember that I was drooling over it after testing one out for a few minutes.
But, I decided that it wasn't worth the switch just for the phone...due to the rather spotty coverage and slow data speeds in LA.

HAHAHa i can top that. I had to use my GF's iPhone 4s for a day YUCKY! Damn it was insanely small. I am thinking about exchanging my white note for a black/blue one. My GF talked me into getting the one. I think it looks really nice and flashy and will deff grab more attention when you whip it out. Ive already gotten in like 4 convos with people about it this week lol.
But i like how the black is slick and clean. Not sure though yet Did you have to pay a restocking fee? I'm gonna have my GF call tomorrow and see if they would wave it being i paid $650 cash for mine.
What made you want a white over the black/blue?
Agreed.
Gotta admit the truth that most phones are starting to look like pieces of toys to me right now. After using the galaxy note for a moment, I started to have the thought of "Isn't this phone starting to look a bit small to me now?" When I looked on the other side, someone's Iphone4,then again I realized it was the galaxy note that have deluded me in such a way that the size of it is comparable to any other phones out there which is in fact not the true case.
Before using the galaxy note, Iphones and other smartphones look decent in size and nice to use with, but after getting my hands on the galaxy note, just felt like..."meh...aint that just another 'toy' phone right there? (takes out my galaxy note and start using it)".
Doubt I could use any other smartphones right now due to their sizes unless emergency issues arise...

I got into 5 convo's with random people since Saturday about the phone. People are fascinated by it and always laugh at how big it is. As soon as they pick it up and start playing with, seeing the screen and what not, they all realize that.. wow... this actually works as a phone.
I look at it now and I say to myself ----- perfect
re: note
You know how girls are.......they get really excited around something BIG. They don't get that privilege very often
You think that is small. I looked at my wires iPhone yesterday and couldn't believe how small it was.
My wife has the HTC Magic, with a 3.2" screen. It really feels tiny and slow now. The screen is dull and with such a low DPI small text looks blurry.

I borrowed my roommate's HTC Aria for a visual aid to a speech in my Public Speaking class, and it's soooo comically tiny compared to my Note. It got a few chuckles out of the class when I held them up next to each other, but I think it really drove home the point that Android offers a wide variety of sizes that will suit anybody and everybody. It's crazy to think that our screen is 2.1" bigger than that of the Aria though, and so much higher definition.
Also, since his screen was cracked, I offered to fix it for him. My fat hands had such a hard time taking it apart, but it took me about a half hour overall, and he now has perfect glass again. I think I would enjoy taking apart my Note so much more with the size of my hands, because there would be so much more room for my fingers. Haha.
Holding my Infuse now feels like a joke. I can't believe it was the biggest screen for android not that long ago. I could never go back to something smaller than the Note now. I am fully adjusted to it, and my thumb can reach the whole screen; it really is the perfect size for me.

I have a buddy who is an iPhone fan. Just likes not having to mess with stuff and having stuff work. He liked the Dell Streak I had, but wasn't a big fan of how much I messed with it. This weekend I let him play with the Note and he loved it, his kids both loved it, and now they all want one. Then I took his iPhone and laid it across the Note to show him that I had a little more than twice the screen real estate.
Even messing with my gf's Skyrocket, it feels like a toy now. I can't believe how BIG I used to think 4.5 was. They called it behemoth, gigantic, super-sized display and now...its Standard. "Once you go NOTE, you'd say 4 inches a Joke"

Screen size is perfect for me. I wanted something in-between the size of my Gnexus and Ipad. While I wouldn't carry the phone in a belt holster, it fit fine in my pockets just fine when I went by Sprint over the weekend to play with it.

I don't know what size I would end up feeling comfortable with in the future. But after saying that, I would agree that at this point 5.7-6" would be the largest size that I think I would be comfortable with for this type of device.

The international Galaxy Tab 7.7 has a GSM option with a mic and headset, as does the 10.1. They both sold decently well. There are people out there who only use a bluetooth headset to make calls, so what does the size of the device making them matter? Most days I could carry my 7.7 as my only device and use a secondary phone for times when I go to bars/concerts/events and need a more pocketable device.

I ask this all the time, but not for what you are asking for I think. I hate very thin phones. I put a case on it just to beef it up. I like the feel of a nice meaty phone in my hand. I just ordered my N3, and I need a case as soon as I unbox it. Like now I have an SII, and need a Case-Mate Tough Case on it to get the right thickness. The N3 is even thinner, so I'm looking forward to some nice thick cases.

Because Samsung wants these phones to actually fit in your pockets? If you want to turn your Note 3 into a Nintendo 3DS XL in size that's your choice but it's not a popular one.

I am the exact opposite... never use a case bc it bulks phones up too much... with my old GS2 never once had a case on it... Note 2...never put a case on it... tried to carry my GFs Note 2 around with a case just to see... and after 15 minutes I was like WTF...too much added weight and bulk... esp for pants pockets... now for girls its prob less of a big deal since they will put theirs in bags/purses all the time.. but for me as a guy I prefer as thin as possible so its light and fits easily in the pocket with the least amount of bulk... I do wish the galaxy line added a thin kickstand that popped out and didnt affect overall design and thickness...but you cant have it all I guess...
to each their own I guess...
I just saw this, and my thoughts.....
I can go all day and then some, never worrying about charging, Full display, data if needed, and snapping pics. My battery, if i milk it (low screen brightness, but 5 hours of wifi etc, still last 16 hours. Screen brightness and data is what eats my battery. Was playing today with complete disregard for battery, and took out a 1/3 battery in matter of 3 hours today.
And my S pen, would be nice and secured underneath the case. Hmmm, sounds perfect for traveling! especially when in another country where charging, electrical plugs etc can be an issue. Sure won't be a dumb arse, and lose my S Pen say on a subway train or it fall out. If i use the pen, i will have to be thinking about it, then secure it away. Maybe i won't order a second replacement S Pen with that case.
The video makes it look like a snap to open the case, and it is more form fitting and sleeker than a huge bulge on the back. Might fit flatter in pocket, or back pack being more slab like.
Like i am gonna be looking for a USB 3 port while on a boat, or tour bus, or something like that.
Looking decent after i think about it....

Not nearly as bad as the first renders. I don't mind it at all. I'll have the graphite color so it will be less obvious as well I believe.
Totally, completely, utterly... don't care about it.
To me, it looks fine. If anything, it gives this phone some identity. I'm the kind of person that needed a case for the N6 (so damn slippery!), but didn't want one that hid the Nexus name. This bar will stand out, and scream Nexus like never before.

I don't mind it at all, its barely protruding and the phone looks like it'll actually sit still when I set it on a table. Which the Nexus 6 doesn't (it spins) because the back is sooo curved. Also graphite ftw! It barely looks noticeable with black on black.

I had real concerns looking at the first renders. It looked huge. Its pretty insignificant now that I've seen the phone in people's hands (on video). And I bought one of the 20 dollar Google cases in black which will make it null anyway.

Completely agree with Badouken, my N6 spins away when I try to type on it while it lays (not flat) on the desk.
My biggest concern is actually overall size. I've never had a phone bigger than the LG G3, and I hope I won't hate the phablet size.

I dont think it will be noticeable at all really in a case ....... either way I got the graphite one so it looks like silly.
Should have got aluminum, then it would really be Benderesque
I kinda dig it because it will keep the phone flat on the table unlike some other flagships I've had of late. I got the graphite to help it blend in a bit. And the hump is affectionately referred to as the "Visor" within the nexus team [emoji14]
My fear was that the glass back would be raised above the body and lead to scratches, but it looks like it's slightly recessed. It will be nice to use a phone on the table without it rocking.

Same here! Plus, I'm thinking a bit ahead and think the graphite's black button where the fingerprint scanner is will complement a DBrand skin very well!
The bump is irrelevant if you go for the graphite, but otherwise - it's nowhere near as bad looking from the side, but I could definitely see people not liking the colour juxtaposition.
Work in the tech industry and everyone who sees these cases wants it! I was very, very impressed with the quality for the price.
There are 3 colors , Cognac ,black and Black with red/green stripe

Pros: It feels amazing in the hand. I have had many so-called genuine leather cases for my Phones over the years, including the BookBook by twelve south which was my all time favorite. I would have ordered another from them except they only make cases for iphone . Boy am I glad they weren't.
It allowed me to find this phenomenal case which is superior to the BookBook in every way. This one is softer and more supple. It feels more like an artist sketchbook, the leather is that nice.
It does NOT have the unfortunate potential of the spine turning white with wear that the BookBook has. (The spine is all natural leather)
It has quality stitching and the interior hard rubber case that cradles the my galaxy S8 is a perfect blend of protection and flexibility.
The credit card slots are generous in size. It is not difficult to put in or remove the cards like on other cases. I currently have 3 cards in it and it closes okay.
Props up-
It is also a stand so I can watch movies on my phone , . It is already broken in- the leather is nice and soft- so it works perfectly.
Calling and use: The leather folds over nice and flat.
SUMMARY
The* Leather Wallet comes in 3 colors, *The leather and stitching make for a nice contrasting look . *If you’ve been thinking about combing your wallet and cell phone into one ,the Italian Cowhide Leather Wallet for galaxy S8 is worth your attention.
PROS: *Luxurious. *Three credit card slots. *Slim, built in stand
CONS: *no strap
Price : $29.98- $39.98

Just got my black one to match my black S8+! I haven't had a real leather case on any of my phones yet, but I was excited to give this one a try. Can't find a better price for an actual leather case.
Oh man, I just wrote a review on this one. I LOVE THIS CASE SO FAR.

Great. I just ordered the black one...will get it Sunday. Thanks OP for the 40% off code!!
This looks like an awesome deal. I had a similar pleather case for my S4, and having the card slot is useful for me. Glad to have found this!

Sorry to disappoint -- I actually went with the Spigen Neo Hybrid due to the slimmer fit and price. I couldn't justify this case, especially since I was a bit anxious about the lack of a magnetic snap to close the case.

Spigen does make great products.
This maybe good practical case, but IMO this is one ugly case. I would never consider this for my S8.
