huhu too bad i'm in kb ...
have too wait

hopefully its casing acessories already in market

Mine..YAY!

nice...did u get the fonepad as well? how is your feedback on the note 8?

Fonepad? I did get my first hands on with it before it was announced. Didn't impress me as much as I had thought it would though.

This note 8 is sleek! Performance wise, it really delivers! You can take it head to head with the N7, but on 3D gaming, the N7 has a slight upperhand due to its 12-cores GPU.

So far, only downer is the plastic casing - but that's just typical samsung. At least, this time they have a metal bezel around the sides. I'll be having an in-depth review on my blog soon.

at newegg..

price is $399 = rm 1211.16...

any1 have any idea if we bring this phone to M`sia how much the cost will be?

i think local set is quite expensive....
the prices also almost looks alike a 10.1..... sigh,,,

is this 3g set or wifi only??

How many times we need to tell u that US only comes with WiFi model, no 3G phone function...

did you get ur case locally??? how abt compare the screen btw the two? u make me more eager to test out the note 8.0..too bad the shop in my place told me they only can receive it next week..

Saw 3 shops selling at lowyat plaza at rm1699 ( SME). Would have bought it if it comes in black but all white only

i also prefer black more..

Yep, got it locally..The screen of the note 8 is way nicer than the fonepad bro..Price itself speaks..The RRP in Malaysia will be RM1699 but you can definitely negotiate with some shops to get at least Rm1600 by next week..This device wins over fonepad hands down..Performance, display, everything..Fonepad only wins over the hardware build because of its metallic back..

I went to lowyat yesterday..The whole lowyat and no one was carrying it yet..Even Samsung shops said that they will only receive it next week..At the moment, Malaysia is only getting the white model..Black will only follow in the next batch..

Oh, and there is no LTE..only 3G and WiFi..

next batch which mean within 1 month time??? if yes, i might wait for black then..

OMG. nice 1.. not sure getting note 8 or wait for nexus7 ver 2

Yep..

Only reason i picked note 8 over nexus 7v2 is because of the phone feature. This allows you to receive whatsapp, sms, etc.

I said earlier on i saw 3 shops selling at lowyat plaza today n all are SME sets at rm1699. None of the official Samsung shops has it yet

correct ... one of the reason i'm waiting for this ....
but just the screen quite a bit frustrated .... but general ok la ...based on review
