Dual Cameras:
The dual cameras of Note 8 are unarguably one of the noteworthy features.

Both the cameras are 12 megapixels each. The main sensor is a wide angle lens which has super-fast dual pixel autofocus and f/1.7 aperture while the secondary camera sensor is a telephoto lens ( f/2.4 aperture) that lets you do 10x digital zoom and 2x optical zoom.

You just need to use your S Pen to type or draw anything that you would like to send an animated GIF is created which can be shared on any messaging app.
More RAM:
The Note 8 is the first smartphone to have 6 GB RAM in the Samsung line of smartphones. Although there are other OEMs that have already been offering a RAM or 6 GB and sometimes more than that in their smartphones Samsung always offered 4 GB RAM, Note 8 is the first to be getting a larger space, we can expect the phone to be among the top performers in its category of smartphones.
DeX:
For those who remember Continuum developed by Microsoft for Windows 10 mobile was not quite successful. However, Samsung has done it well and its DeX has a lot of abilities and features to offer, which also seem to work just as it has been designed to do so. Samsung has integrated DeX in Note 8 a feature that will give you a bigger screen to work on. With a smartphone placed in a dock which would be connected to a monitor, you would have the feel of a computer. You would be able to play games using mouse and keyboard, view apps on a bigger screen and view more apps on just a single screen. In short, perform all the functions of the mobile just on a bigger screen. You can view up to 36 apps, you have video conferencing, optimized email and video streaming functionality which is on a new level.
S Pen:
One of the best Samsung Galaxy Note 8 features is the S Pen. Besides the Live Messages that we discussed, it also lets you write on the lock screen so the users can take down speedy notes or create reminders without having to open any app or clicking on any button. You can write up to 100 pages without even turning the screen on. If you hover the S Pen over any foreign text it will translate it to the default language that has been set on the smartphone. You can also convert currencies in the same manner. Cool, isn’t it?
App Pairing:
This is perfect for multi-tasking. It lets the user launch two apps together in a multi-window. You would have to create a pair of the desired apps on the homescreen and then whenever you get the notifications or you wish to launch them together you can do so in the split mode. The pairing can be done for any apps say for example WhatsApp and Facebook or Google and YouTube etc. It makes your works fast.

The bandwidth of Bluetooth 5 has been upped to 2 Mbps and about its broadcasting message ability has been made 8 times better than its predecessor. What makes it more interesting is that while working on low-energy mode the service is 4 times better in terms of range and 2 times faster when it comes to bandwidth.
