Upgrading from Note4 to Note8. Can't imagine going for any other series of phone coz of the features on a Note. Once you go Note there's no going back! Thanks for the video :)
So am I! And I completely agree. I doubt there's anyone who has downgraded from a Note to any other phone. The only "problem" is my Note 4 still works amazingly well (not even a scratch), so my justification for getting a Note 8 is that I can pass on my Note 4 to a non-Note person and convert them =P
Minty hahaha so true! My Note4 is still perfect looks like it's only 3 months old. It has very little scratches and no broken screen even when I've dropped it a couple of times past 3years! Also I've never factory reset my Note4 only doing it now coz I'm passing it down too. Getting the Note8 coz I want better camera and improved S pen and that infinity display just looks gorgeous. I feel like this Note8 is true upgrade from my Note4. Didn't feel compelled enough to get Note5 or Note7!
You missed two very big smart select feature. The first is that when you smart select something, you can use the button with the little T on it to extract a text. It pulls the text out of the picture and makes it copyable to your clipboard. The other feature is the animated gif creator. You can draw the square anywhere on your screen and it will create a gif of whatever it's seeing
I don't understand how to accomplish this: The other feature is the animated gif creator. You can draw the square anywhere on your screen and it will create a gif of whatever it's seeing Could you explain step-by-step? I tried all I could think of...
@@satori2869 I know you probably figured this out by now, but the Note 8 has the smart select feature, that you can add as a shortcut. What I did is, use the little stylus icon that appears on the edge of the phone or the corner and then add the smart select as shortcut. After that, I use that to select whatever text I want and extract it, before copying. So if I want to copy a part of a photo, I open the camera app, touch the little stylus symbol and when all my shortcuts appear, I select smart select, extract and copy.
farrius dean it is. It offers something that no other phone offers in the s pen features. Best display on the market iris scanning fast wireless charging. Supports hdr and on TH-cam too. Only a few devices do that. Great design with the curved screen, 6gb of ram. The display size is perfect for split screen multi tasking. Vast amount of cases and accessories. Battery life is said to be very good too from the people iv spoke to. Samsung dex free with it in the UK too
Another excellent video. You explain things clearly, and you don't rush, something I appreciate. No gimmicks, self-aggrandizement, or other distractions--just information. Keep up the good work.
your tutorials solidify my love of this phone. There's just so much I'd not figure out alone, just because I am not over-all that tech savvy, but always loved the S pen
Sakitech, you do such a great job and do it every effectively like no other. You're one of the very few people who's every video I find beneficial to watch
Sakitech, I am a new subscriber and I am getting the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 in August this year and this video has inspired me to buy it. I have watched tons of your videos but I have never had a TH-cam account, so now that I have, I have subscribed and liked this amazing video. Thank you for all of the information on this outstanding piece of technology. Once again, thank you.
One of the most thorough I have seen on TH-cam to date. Excellent! So glad you have done a variety of videos about the Note 8 as I'm considering its purchase. I have had the Note 2 for years but can see from your video that the S-Pen has many more useful capabilities now. Thanks!
Does anyone else go around youtube looking at all videos on a product they want because they can't buy it at the moment? I've been doing that about the Note 8, Gear S3. in the past I've done it with the Nintendo Switch (it wasn't released at the time), the Steam controller, and Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild.
I agree with the comments about how god your tutorials are. You take your time, give clear step by step instructions, and they are easy to follow. Ive watched many other tutorials, and always come back to yours. Well done!
Great video. I'm researching the Note 8 for possible purchase. The Pen looks very useful. I think others have been to quick to write off the Note 8 as an S8++ because they overlooked the utility of the pen.
The note the most powerful phone not because of the benchmarks but because of what it does. Apple users still dont understand they are sheep to the slaughter lol. Great info as always great work.
Thank you for this great video... I have been using Samsung Notes since the Note 3... now Im gonna buy the Note 8 soon and your tutorial was great to learn the new features.
Recently my note 4 busted...had to use ifone 6 plus instead n though I am grateful I still have a one to use..nothing comes close to notes capabilities....only thing wish Samsung can do better is battery performance n that their hardware lasts bit longer. But def gonna get note again...thx for the Tut!
Am a S8 owner now. After watching this I really am into Note 8. Its not going to be a big upgrade from S8 to Note 8 but these S pen features are just too awesome.
clicking the hovering icon n then selecting takes too much time...looks frustrating You should be able to write a letter on anywhere on the screen (when you aren't on a writing or drawing mode) like "1" for the first function you set in the circular list and "2" n so on Would make things 4 times faster
You should, I was one of those people who waited in line for the new Iphone. Then I got the galaxy note 10.1 tablet for my birthday and I fell in love with the pen. I switched to the note series phones and now every time I try to use an Iphone I find it so frustrating and clunky that I can barely do anything with it. The Note is the best android device out there. I use the pen CONSTANTLY and can't function without it anymore.
Same I been able to upgrade for 2 month and can't decide. The only reason. Is my Apple watch. I'll feel it was a waste if I switch and it still working. But I'm so tempted at just using it as a watch and get the note.
got my note 8 last week and i am loving it.. using iphone 6+ for the last 2 and a half year. was about to get the new iphone but... iphone 8 was a joke with it own design and iphone 10 is too ugly with the notch on the top. btw i love drawing so the s pen is good for me.
I'll never learn, nor utilize, all of the tricks which the Note8 can perform. I'd even go as far as to say that I'm a lower-end "power user" where a typical day will find me unsheathing the S-Pen a couple dozen times. The Note8 is my media powerhouse which can, occasionally, take phone calls. My granddaughter watched a TH-cam video on the Note8 this past Wednesday and I watched her eyes go wide when she saw that display. So far, so good Note8.
Thanks for that. I am always annoyed how people always treat the Note series like a flagship series, how no one realizes it is in fact a niche market. Been using Note 4 for almost 3 yrs now and will probably buy another Note for my next one. 😁
Awesome video tutorial on the features of the S-Pen. Just coming over from using iPhones this video really helped with using my Note 8. Very clear instructions and detailed enough for a Newbie. Thank you!
Hi Saki, I just found your channel earlier this morning and I have to tell you that I have really enjoyed this video. I just got my Note8 this week and I love it! I have to admit that I really did not know all that could be done with my S-Pen. I had the Note5 and I loved it so much that as soon as the 8 showed up to be pre-ordered I just had to get it. That being said I truly didn't not know all this information and I have to thank you as I do now. LOL... I of course have subscribed to your channel and as time allows I am going to check out all your videos and learn all the more that I can about my new phone. Thanks so much. You do a great job of describing everything while not boring everyone. Have a wonderful day and keep up that great work. Hugs LisaG
Thanks, sakitech! This is a really helpful tutorial for 1st-time Note users such as myself. Great job, I can't wait to try out my device in two days and will revisit your video here to make sure that I haven't overlooked anything in settings.
They thought of fucking everything with this phone. Even if you won't use half of these features it's still leagues better than pretty much any other phone. I know I'll be using the Note taking feature quite often being a game designer. I have sparratic ideas that come and go in a short amount of time. so I don't want to have to go and enter my 10 digit passcode, open a note taking app, and type it down. instead, scan my finger, open the note, and write it down in a considerably shorter time. I particularly thought of my half blind grandma when you talked about the magnifier. that would be perfect for her. Not to mention the pen so she can make precise tapping, and she wouldn't have to worry about autocorrect, or missing keys because she could just write the words out. I'll definitely be getting one of these when I can save enough money. though honestly the note 9 will probably be out by that time.
good luck bro. and i am very proud of you that you thinking getting this for your grandma. for note 8. u just pull the s pen out and u can take note straight away .. no need to scan your finger and open the note. . just pull s pen and start writing.. very fast and cool. i am using this feature a lot and playing hangman guessing word game with the kids
first time i experience and view one of your tutorial. it is a bit in the long version but got to thank you for being so through and it was very interesting and educational. so i say great job. i am a new subscriber

Great video!
I use my S Pen all the time Can't wait for my Note 8.
Can you use the button on the s pen to take pics on the 8, or is that only for the note 9?
*This even gave me a better understanding of the S-Pen operation on my Note 4! Thanks Saki!*
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You explain everything perfectly. So easy to understand. Very specific. What a fantastic way to learn about everything.
Thanks homie. I've had this phone so long and didn't understand what I had. This is great. I just subscribed!
Same here... 😄
I think sakitech is the ONLY person who fully reviews tech.
"Yo wassup everybody it's ya boy Floss"
So happy you praise the note 8. Your a great teacher saki!
Thank you! This video is the reason why I'm upgrading from my iPhone 7 to the note 8
you have the lousy new iPhones to thank partially

Another excellent tutorial. Thanks. I'm following along on my Note 8. Got it yesterday. So much to learn!
Liked the video before I saw it ..You always make great videos man , I've been watching your videos since I had my Htc one m7 3 years ago 👍👍
This is the best video by far on this topic. Thank you!
TH-cam "Tech reviewers" and any other folks calling the Note8 an S8+ with a S-Pen needs to watch and learn from this video.
Awesome in depth review answered EVERY question i had about the new spen features, nice!
I actually felt proud because you had Turkish set up in your translator. :)
perfect nothing missing , cover whole stylus pen facility and very clear to underestand sound and video quality awesome
Hi thanks for a nice video. Why did you skip the text select part from smart select? It's a very powerful tool to copy text from images.
Great video saki I just got my note and was wondering what all features I could use with the S pen appreciate it keep up the good work
Bro' I appreciate your videos. They're official.
Excellent video! My Note 8 is on it's way and I will save this video as a refresher to refer to if I have questions. Thank you :)
Muchas gracias amigo. I couldn't figure out how to translate entire paragraphs. Nice
You are the very best at describing the features of the Note 8! Thank you so much!
Would you consider doing a video on what you can actually do in notes and with categories (deleting editing).
Thank you Saki, very professionally done. It was also refreshing to have a left handed person giving the lesson, for I am as well :-)
Best video ever, thanks!
2 thumbs up for SAKI, super detail and patient....good job!
Pre ordered Aug 23rd received Sep 6 ,, had note 2,4,7... down grades s7edge ..ugggh ..now back to note 8.. loving this 8...

Great Review Saki!!! Jump to 11:22 for circular menu.
Samsung is killing the game. No competition
irdi basha I agree
iPhone could do almost all of these.
Only thing is you should learn to use iphone.
All these functions 3 years before iPhone has.
Just learn yaar!

Extra tip - Holding the pen button and double clicking the screen opens a note
thx
Thanks!!!!

i just received my Note 8 yesterday nd this video is really a big help!!! Thank you so much!
Does anyone else go around youtube looking at all videos on a product they want because they can't buy it at the moment?
I've been doing that about the Note 8, Gear S3. in the past I've done it with the Nintendo Switch (it wasn't released at the time), the Steam controller, and Legend of Zelda, Breath of the Wild.

I meant look at things to an obsessive degree because you're too poor to buy it at the moment.
RedGeoBlaze I feel you. Did it also with the Switch and Note 8. Gladly I was able to get the Switch and I just bought my Note 8. It's so good.
I need to wait like 3 more months so that's exactly what I'm doing!
I regularly do that, planning to get a note 8 with the price drop
doing that right now😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you so much. Very good and clear explanation for 1st timer using note
Your are great. Tkank you

The best video I have seen so far in the TH-cam..about the 8
Great video. I'm researching the Note 8 for possible purchase. The Pen looks very useful. I think others have been to quick to write off the Note 8 as an S8++ because they overlooked the utility of the pen.
Wow Thanks So Much I did not realize that the S-pen could do so much. Added to my How to for future reference
Me watching this in 2019 coz I cldnt afford note 10+
Galaxy Note8 is still one of the best Phones, for me atleast

Thank you. You are amazing. Just thought me how to use my new Note8. I am loving it.
YOU MISSED ONE! THE BIXBY VISION!
Saki, this was in depth and gives very good insight on how to use the product. Great video!
The note the most powerful phone not because of the benchmarks but because of what it does. Apple users still dont understand they are sheep to the slaughter lol. Great info as always great work.
Great run down. I have loved the S Pin since the note 4. They just keep making it better.
Don't forget about DEX, would like you doing a vid on it. It's like many people are forgetting the NOTE 8 has that!
Fantastic tutorial. I usually don't comment, but you just nailed it ! :-)

When you update the note 5 it turns into the same shit that was on the note 7
Street Warrior *True, I loved my note 4 , upgraded to 8 now. :)*
Thanks for the tutorial, it was so helpful, I understand the S Pen functions now, this was a video that Samsung should have made
No action memo?
