I'm excited. Even though I may wait a while to upgrade, I will be watching the keynote. Not only watching for the Note 8 but for the new watch (s): Gear S4 and Gear fit Pro?
Anyone going from s8+ to note 8. I think I'm going to go for it. Wish they made the screen a little bigger or 16/9 though.
The screen is going to be longer, wider and more square but will still have the same aspect ratio as the S8+.
[doublepost=1503461110][/doublepost]Bixby voice has launched globally as of yesterday but is still only available in Korean and English. Anyway it's good to know that it's available in the UK. I'm also impressed with the timescale. I thought it would take years, if ever it came to the UK, but a few months is not bad at all. Well done Samsung.
It will be interesting to see what they will do in order to try and compete with the upcoming iPhone 8, i may be an Apple guy but i do appreciate that in recent years Samsung have made some really nice designs with their phones, it's just a shame they have TouchWiz and use Android.
Will be available in orchid grey according to Evan Blass

So far we have black, orchid grey, gold and deep blue as available colours.
I bet we will not see gold in the UK though

I've got the Alcantara case for my S8 and it's wonderful, hope Samsung have one ready for the Note 8.
[doublepost=1503480819][/doublepost]So the UK price got leaked, apparently: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2017/08/23/samsung-galaxy-note-8-release-specs-price/
It should start at around £869 for the SIM-free Note 8.
Wow.

They are going through the Note 7 explosion stuff, with tweets and videos from people about how they are either downgrading to another Galaxy device and how they have faith in Sammy. They thank you for believing in them.

Live focus sounds good and both lenses having OIS. Nice to be able to adjust the focus after taking your pics.
Don't have to sync or charge the S-Pen....wonder what that was aimed at lol
