Samsung-Galaxy-Note8-official-1

If you’ve seen the renders of the Note 8 in the last one month, then there’s no need for you to see the official device. It looks the same as what we’ve been seeing in the renders, and it even looks like the Galaxy S8 duo. The Galaxy Note 8 is literally a Galaxy S8+, but with a Stylus support and dual rear camera.

Let’s speak about the innards first. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 uses the same Snapdragon 835 chipset or Exynos 8895 for Asian markets. However, the device has 6GB of RAM, as opposed to the 4GB module seen on the S8 and S8+. The design of the smartphone is similar as well, but it has a rectangular body, which makes it resemble the Galaxy Note 7.

Samsung has decreased the battery capacity to 3300mAh when compared to the 3500mAh unit seen on the S8+ and Galaxy Note 7. The reduction in battery capacity is due to S-Pen placement.
