This got me thru my masters program. Everyone used to print out their PowerPoints i used to download them on this and write notes on them in the lecture. Was a life saver.
I bought this on my first year of university in 2014 and I am still using it now. This tablet is the best, so comfy, handy, useful. Sadly I lost my s pen, but even without it I still use this a lot. I had issues with the port for sim card but got it fixed and now it's perfectly working. Still the best one I had
Hello, I am a time traveler and I come to say that more than 10 years ago I bought my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 thanks to this video. Being 2023 I still have it and Surprisingly it still works, it just needs a new battery and it will still work like the first day. Thanks for the memories, DetroitBORG.
this tablet is the greatest thing ever for drawing and sketching. the proximity ware and stylus pen gives total precision and control. unlike capacitive screen and your average stylus pen. best purchase I've ever made in life.
I bought this tablet in 2013 thanks to this video and now in 2020 it still works, obviously not like the first day anymore, but I like to watch this video again to remember the old days. Thanks for the review!
Bought this about 7 months ago. One of the best purchases I 've made in recent years. I love the S pen. The screen is awesome, sometimes the rotation gets a bit slow especially when you first unlock the screen after it has been inactive for a few hours. I love the Android OS as well.
Mike just recently subscribed to your site this past summer when I bought my Galaxy S4 and I just wanted to say you have a very informative site. Thanks for all you do informing us of the latest and greatest devices on the market, keep up the good work.
I was soooo excited to get this tablet. The idea that I could just digitally sketch anywhere. plus this stuff was still rather new at the time. I loved this thing truly..
Ordered mine a week ago... needed to get it imported for a really good price, should arrive with me tomorrow but keep watching this review as it keeps me going until I get mine in my hands. The anticipation is killing me :)
Thank you. Your review was certainly one of the more comprehensive I have seen. You missed a few things that Note users are accustomed to (like you were afraid to rest your palm on the screen, it has palm rejection), you showed other things that others didn't know or didn't bother to highlight, like S Voice. All in all a great review.
I bought this one two days ago, and it might not be a so called premium tablet but it is a pretty decent one. I loved this review as it showed me so many things I didn't know about it. As for the screen resolution it is really good despite the fact it is not a retina display one. I might wait to see what Apple is going to show in the near future.
I haven't heard anything to horrible about the Note 8.0. It seems pretty cool with all the features and it beats newer versions and others in my opinion. I noticed lots of defective devices out there. I want to be safe than sorry. :/
This review was awesome I did not know this Note did so much. Still in love with this Note ... not willing to move on to another model yet .. That's the plus about Samsung products ....there so awesome ....
Your video is what convinced me to get one. Thank you for such a thorough run down on the workings of the device. I am keeping this video as an instruction video.
Yes I did. And it's fantastic!!! I have 2 Asus tablets, the tf201 and the tf700; the tf 201 had a known design flaw in the wifi radio and I found the tf700 lacking in that area as well. This Samsung tablet has a blazing fast wifi radio and loads of software features, most notably the S Pen. I recommend this tablet to anyone without hesitation. It's a gem.
This was such a great review!! I'm glad I was able to get one!! I work at Sears and this is how I take notes and have detailed descriptions of our appliances in case I don't know everything lolz ^_^
Excellent review, you have covered all the questions I have been asking, it has certainly made my mind up to go and order one today. Many thanks, will totally recommend your review, its the most comprehensive review of this excellent tablet. Thank you.
Great review!! You covered so many of the features of the tablet and how to use them. I have the Galaxy 8.0, and your review helped me a lot to utilize the features of this tablet.
I got the tablet 2 months ago and so far it's the best spend time and it's great for school work and everything so much better than the iPad best bang for the buck in its price range
I just got this tablet yesterday and it´s awesome. You can do much more thing than with an iPad, the performance is pretty good and the S pen is really useful.
I still have to find a tablet so versatile with a wacom pen like this, it was fucking lit to be the only one in my class back then writing on glass! Have to say as much as i love my ipad pro, the Spen drawing app is still miles ahead
Do u buy all of you're products that you review? Or do you get them sent to you so you can make reviews by the product makers. Because you review alot of phones and I was woundering?
Great video, you may have affected my buying decision. Hope you can help, do you know if the screen will still work if you are wearing gloves? Thinking of winter time when its cold and you are outside waiting for a bus/train. I suppose you can use the pen but again while wearing gloves its kinda annoying. Especially if you have to take one glove off just to pull out the stylus then to put the glove back on and attempt to grab and use it.
How do you feel about the note 8.0 vs. the 10.1 You mentioned in your review of the 10.1 that it becomes slow overtime, does the 8.0 do the same thing. I didn't hear alot of things you didn't like about the note 8.0.
Hi Mick, What would you recommend, the WiFi only version and then get the Note 3 phone to go with it, or would you recommend the LTE version? I have researched for a very long time and it looks like this one beats them all. I'm going to be using it for medical school as well as later on once I am in the field. Please help. Thanks for your help, it's greatly appreciated thank you. Keep up the great work! I love your videos, you're the best.
HI Mike. Great review, very helpful and informative indeed. It was also a great how to and covered many of the features in depth unlike any other video here on TH-cam. My SG Note 8.0 will be in my hot little hands in 2 days. So, thanks a bunch. Ciao, Marc
I thinking about buying the galaxy note 8.0 but I was wondering if it has a multi-language keyboard. Also, does it have something similar to the app store? I'd be great if you could answer back! Did you pay about $400 for it or is that just the general price given at stores and online?
Nice review, can you please confirm if this tablet wobbles when you lay it on a flat surface. I noticed how the camera pops out in the back and i hope that doesn't make it wobble. I was really looking forward to buying this and if it wobbles that would be really annoying
Hey Mike, great review! As primarily an Apple user (iPhone 5/Macbook) I was wondering if there is any way to sync iCal with the Samsung calendar app? I'm really thinking about this tablet but it would be unfortunate if I can't keep it somewhat in line with my other devices. Thanks!
I'm in love with this tablet, I haven't owned one before and this will satisfy my media consumption and school note taking needs. It's expensive but I'm willing to overlook it as it looks very promising. Btw, I was playing around with it in Best Buy Mobile and the screen honestly looks very good to me.
you never fail to make a good review about a certain product. It makes me wanna get one, but I just had an ASUS Transformerpad Infinity, but Im thinking of returning it and get this instead. do you think it's worth it? Im a med-student plus I really like the multitasking feature of this gadget. HELP!!!
Came back for the nostalgia as it was the biggest purchase for me when I was 11yo
I came here for nostalgia too ❤️🥺
Me too altough im now 13 and my parents bought me this when i was 5 #goodolddays

Maybe with an unofficial ROM could work but I don't know.

I can't help but say - in spite of the video itself - you have a really marvelous voice!
I loved this tablet.
You could draw your S-pen on any screen in order to go back
I have this Galaxy note 8.0, and so far I didnt have any issues on using it. I more like it than my cousins ipad mini

I had one of these back in the day, My main issue was the battery, it didn't last too long!
lmao me too the screen would just flicker
i'm still using my Note 8.. hope Samsung will manufacture this tablet again. what a great little tablet!
Did the software update or is it still on the original software version?
sumrgrl100 I'm using it now while I'm typing, yes it has a new January 2017 software update. I updated it only just few days ago.
Note 8.0
Note 8.0 vs Note8
The USB connector is the weak point Galaxy Note 8.0, some of my friends used it for a few months and cannot charge the unit anymore.
Songwut Samakkitam yes you are right. My unit suffered much after the connector got messed up.
Just came by to watch this video again. I once used to own this beauty . The amount of possibilities it had were remarkable for its time.
wow 2 hours review for this, thank you ! here my like :)

Thanks for the review. Due to your video, I ordered one yesterday!
Which do you think is a better tablet overall, the Note 8.0 or the Note 10.1 after its Premium Suite + Jelly Bean update?
Your reviews are really good! Thanks!
Is this tablet still worth getting? Or should I wait until they release an updated version or go for the LG G Pad 8.3?
im going for the lg g pad due to a discount code :)
Get the Note.
I decided to get the Note for a few days to see hownI like it.
Newer version of the note. Otherwise the LG G Pad 8.3.
Android games run better on Adreno
I got a note 8.0 Yesterday and I Love it already.
Great review as always im looking to purchase a samsung device but im not sure which one to go with either the Note 8.0 or Tab 3 8.0 any suggestions?

Very helpful demo. speedy and complete. Well done and thanks.
how does it feel in your hand? does it feel small or like an normal iPad size (just to compare)?
I love this tablet with pen. Does not matter what they come up with I will always choose the one with built in pen.

Great review! I made my mind up to buy note after watching your review. Thank you! ^^
brilliant review, u earned a subscriber my friend
The best choice for a school tablet. Ive been using it for the past month and it is far easier and more organizational.
i wanna ask you.. did you charge 8 hour first or you use it battery it low and then you charge it???
I have the 10.1 but seriously thinking of selling it and getting the 8" version - seems to be more usefull?
Excellent review. However, does SKYPE work well on this tablet?
