Galaxy Note 8

Got my Note 8 yesterday, up from Note 4.
Exept that the Note 8 is very fast and responsive I wonder if it was worth the upgrade. I'm to old for games and mostly use the phone for calling people and texting.
Of cause the camera looks great.
If it will last me 4 years like the Note 4 did I'll be happy.

With 6GB RAM , it should last you 4 years without much of a performance drop easily.

Congratulations and welcome! :D
 
New Galaxy Note 8 update brings more intuitive Live Focus controls

For starters, every time the phone is in the right position to take a Live Focus (or portrait, if that’s what you prefer calling it) photo, the “Live focus ready” text that comes up now has an opaque yellow background to make it stand out. When the camera isn’t at the right distance from the subject, you now see a more direct “Move farther away from subject” heads-up, and the same goes for when there’s not enough light for Live Focus to work. Oh, and the slider for adjusting background blur is accompanied by “+” and “-” icons that you can tap on to instantly switch between zero and maximum background blur.

Finally, the button to switch between front and back cameras has been replaced by a back button at the top left of the display when you’re shooting in Live Focus mode, which is great if you have the on-screen navigation keys set to hide by default. When you’re shooting normally, it turns back into the camera switch button. Of course, you can continue to swipe up or down on the display to switch between the front and rear cameras, which remains the most convenient option to do so.

Update: The Live Focus tweaks don’t seem to be a part of the November update for all regions, as evidenced by the updates that are, for example, rolling out in India, Bangladesh and Germany (we’ve confirmed this to be true). It’s possible the tweaks will be a part of the December update, but for now, don’t be surprised if you don’t see them after installing the latest update on your Note 8.

A while ago I posted about the Fast Wireless Charger that only charge my phone up to 95% when it's in the Original Samsung Note 8 Rugged Protective Case.

I got one of the new Convertible Fast Wireless Chargers yesterday for a bargain price. I've put my phone on charge last night and this morning it was on 100%. While using the same cover.

I'm glad to see that the problem is Charger related.
