Samsung’s newest flagship Smartphone, the Galaxy Note 8 is
now available in the Nigerian market, according to an official statement by
Samsung Electronics West Africa. The Note 8 which was launched in Lagos at the
weekend, takes cues from Samsung’s Note and Galaxy S lines, while boasting even
more exciting features making the smartphone a stunning device.
Made with Corning Gorilla Glass 5.0, the new smartphone has
a 6.3-inch QHD screen, the largest screen on a Galaxy Note phone, a dual
camera, two 12-megapixel cameras on the back – a dual pixel primary wide-angel
sensor with f/1.7 aperture and OIS, and a secondary telephoto lens with f/1.4
aperture and OIS. The smartphone features the company’s signature Infinity
Display, giving the screen more surface area for use with the S Pen.
Director of Information, Communication & Technology for
Samsung Electronics West Africa, Emmanouil Revmatas, said the infinity display
is a game changer for Note users because where others see more screen, users
see more space to do what they love and get things done.
Also, its Director of Mobile, Mr. Olumide Ojo, said: “The Galaxy Note 8 has the
biggest screen ever on a Note device, yet its narrow body makes it comfortable
to hold in one hand. With the Super AMOLED technology, combined with a
resolution of 2,960 x 1,440, all the typical characteristics featured in
previous Samsung phones such as vibrant colors, high contrast, and inky dark
blacks are incredibly sharp. The Note 8’s display is absolutely gorgeous with a
screen fantastic for all kinds of use such as watching YouTube videos, playing
games, casual web browsing, and boosting productivity.”
Built with 6GB RAM, a 10nm processor, and 64GB memory space
(expandable up to 256GB), the Galaxy Note 8 offers users more flexibility for
internet browsing, video streaming, playing games, and multitasking.
Importantly, the device is also water and dust resistant (IP68). Users do not
have to worry about getting the device damaged when accidentally dropped in
fresh water, as deep as 1.5 meters, for up to 30 minutes.
interruption. The S Pen can also translate full sentences in
foreign languages, depending on the country and region. All you need do is let
the S Pen hover above the selected words. Thanks to the “Screen Off” Memo,
users can write up to 100 pages of notes, as well as edit and pin them to the
Always-On Display, an easy way for users to capture and share their thoughts
with ease. The S Pen also automatically converts units of measurements and
foreign currencies. There is also an alarm that will go off once you start
moving without docking it away.
The Galaxy Note 8 is equipped with two 12MP rear cameras
with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) on both the wide-angle lens and the
telephoto lens, allowing users capture crisp and sharp images. For more
advanced photo-taking, the Galaxy Note 8’s Live Focus feature allows for
control of the depth of field by adjusting the blur and focus of the background
in real time. The background blur can be adjusted even after the picture is
taken.
In Dual Capture mode, both rear cameras take two pictures
simultaneously, allowing users save both images; one close-up shot from the
telephoto lens and one wide-angle shot that shows the entire background. The
wide-angle lens has a Dual Pixel sensor with rapid Auto Focus, so you can capture
sharper, clearer shots even in low-light environments.
“One of the things our consumers look out for when
purchasing a device is the camera. Samsung has clearly set the standard for
smartphone cameras and, with the Galaxy Note 8; we are delivering our most
powerful smartphone camera yet. The Galaxy Note 8 is also equipped with an
industry-leading 8MP Smart Auto Focus front-facing camera for sharp selfies and
video chats,” said Mr. Emmanouil Revmatas.
With the Samsung Galaxy Note 8’s Adaptive Fast Charging
technology, users can get their battery charge up from zero to 50 per cent
capacity in just 30 minutes. Its ultra-power saving mode also lets users make
the most of their battery power, helping them stay connected for longer
periods.
“Consumers do not need to worry about the safety of their
devices as Samsung continues to uphold its commitment to lead the industry in
battery safety. The Galaxy Note8’s battery has undergone Samsung’s 8-Point
Battery Safety Check-the most rigorous in the industry,” Revmatas said.
In addition to its innovative technological advancements,
the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 offers a choice of biometric authentication
options-including iris and fingerprint scanning.
The Galaxy Note 8 is available in Midnight Black, Orchid
Gray, and Maple Gold colours. To purchase the device, customers can visit the
network providers, MTN, Airtel, Etisalat and GLO; Samsung Experience Stores,
and select retail partners nationwide. Customers are encouraged to purchase
their Galaxy Note 8 only in Nigeria and only from authorized dealers so they
can enjoy a 24-month warranty.
