Hey Folks,
Yesterday Samsung announced the all new Samsung Galaxy Note 8. This is an update to Note series flagships after S8. S8 received a huge hit due to its amazing camera and infinity display. Samsung continued this while keeping the same infinity display with improved software optimization and all new features including new dual camera.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is powered by 1.6GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor and it comes with 6GB of RAM. The phone packs 64GB of internal storage that can be expanded up to 256GB via a microSD card. As far as the cameras are concerned, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 packs a 12-megapixel primary camera on the rear and a 8-megapixel front shooter for selfies. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 runs Android 7.1.1 and is powered by a 3300mAh non removable battery. It measures 162.50 x 74.80 x 8.60 (height x width x thickness) and weigh 195.00 grams.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a single SIM (GSM) smartphone that accepts a Nano-SIM. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, NFC, USB OTG, Headphones, 3G and 4G (with support for Band 40 used by some LTE networks in India).

But the Note is back because Samsung believes there are still consumers who love it. Assuming the company can avoid unforeseen disaster with the Galaxy Note 8, it will have made a triumphant return from one of its most humbling failures. Note 8 is great flagship by Samsung in 2017 but the 1000$ (approx.) price and upcoming iPhone 8 will decide its sales.
