Hi Huneybees,
I'm so excited to be the first few in Singapore to try out the new Samsung Galaxy Note8, some twelve (12) hours after it was unveiled at the Galaxy Note8 Unpacked Event in New York, USA!
My immediate thought when picking up the new Samsung Galaxy Note8 was it has a BIG screen!
Indeed, featuring a 6.3-inch Quad HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity Display that allows users to see more and scroll less, the Galaxy Note8 has the biggest screen ever on a Note and S-series device yet.
Interestingly, while the new Note8 is slightly bigger than the big Galaxy S8 Plus, measuring at 162.5 (Length) x 74.8 (Width) x 8.6mm (Thickness) and weights 195 grams, its narrow body design actually creates an impression that the phone isn't THAT BIG at all to hold comfortably in one hand.
While a bigger Infinity Display on the new Galaxy Note8 is certainly a welcome news to Note users, who have always been able to do more with the Multi Window function, the introduction of the new App Pair feature on the new Galaxy Note8 is going to take multitasking to a new level - in the blink of an eye literally.
What the App Pair does is it allows the Note8 user to simultaneously launch any two apps at the same time with just a single touch and both apps will each take up 50% of screen space on the new Galaxy Note8's bigger Infinity Display.
With up to TEN (10) custom pair of apps to be created on the Edge panel, users of the new Galaxy Note8 can now watch and draw or read and text at the same time with ease! A very practical scenario for me is to have an App Pair that will launch both the Phone App to dial into a conference call and the Memo App with the number and agenda in front of me!!
Samsung Galaxy Note8 will come in three (3) colours - Orchid Gray, Midnight Black, and Maple Gold - and will be available islandwide from 15th September 2017 at a Recommended Retail Price of SGD1,398!
For Huneybees who are eager to become the first few in Singapore to own the new Galaxy Note 8, you can pre-order and register your interest from 25th August 2017 with the three major telecommunication operators - M1, Singtel, and StarHub.
Pre-Order at Samsung Store online/Samsung Experience Stores Consumers can also pre-order their Galaxy Note8 (without contract) via the Samsung Store online or visit the following Samsung Experience Stores from 25 August 2017 during opening hours.
