Samsung Galaxy Note8 launched with Bixby feature

Samsung Electronics has come up with its flagship smartphone Galaxy Note8 in India.

Samsung will also introduce Bixby Voice capabilities with ‘Make for India’ innovations in its intelligent interface Bixby in the next few weeks. Bixby will be available on Galaxy Note8 and Galaxy S8 & S8+ devices.

With Galaxy Note8, consumers get a big, immersive Infinity Display that fits comfortably in one hand, S Pen to communicate in more personal ways, and Samsung’s best-ever true Dual Camera with dual Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) to capture stunning photos in all conditions.

The Note series will also come with the revolutionary mobile payment service, Samsung Pay, and Samsung’s defense-grade security platform Samsung Knox. Galaxy Note8 is designed for the way consumers lead their lives and lean on technology today.

“Galaxy Note8 with its stunning Infinity Display, enhanced S Pen and a true Dual Camera, is designed for those who want to do bigger things. At Samsung, we listen to our consumers and bring in meaningful innovations that help make their lives better. With this launch, Samsung will further consolidate its leadership in the premium smartphone segment in India,” said Asim Warsi, Senior Vice President, Mobile Business, Samsung India.

Galaxy Note8 has the biggest screen ever, yet with superior engineering and design, it comfortably fits in one hand. The 6.3-inch Quad HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity Display lets user see more and scroll less.

With Galaxy Note8, the App Pair feature lets user create a custom shortcut on the Edge Panel to simultaneously launch two frequently used apps and invoke them with ease.

With Galaxy Note8, the intelligent S Pen unlocks entirely new ways to write, draw, and interact with the phone and communicate with friends. It has a finer tip, improved pressure sensitivity3, and features that enable users to express themselves in ways that no other stylus or smartphone ever has.

The Always On Display allows Galaxy users to stay on top of their notifications without unlocking their phone. Galaxy Note8’s Screen off memo allows to take up to one-hundred pages of notes, without even unlocking the phone. Users just need to remove the S Pen and jot down notes, pin them to the Always On Display and edit directly from the Always On Display, letting users, including professionals, do what other smartphones can’t.

The improved S Pen acts as a personal translator and convertor—just hover over text to quickly translate not only individual words, but entire sentences and get the output in up to 71 languages, or instantly convert units and foreign currencies.

Samsung set the standard for smartphone cameras and with Galaxy Note8, the rear camera on Galaxy Note8 comes with two 12MP lenses-wide angle and telephoto-and both are equipped with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) for sharper photos and videos-an industry first feature. The Galaxy Note8’s Live Focus feature lets user control the depth of field by allowing user to adjust the bokeh effect in preview mode and even after you take the photo.

In Dual Capture mode, both rear cameras take pictures simultaneously—one close-up shot from the telephoto lens and one wide-angle shot that shows the entire background.

The wide-angle lens continues the legacy of the Dual Pixel sensor with rapid Auto Focus. Galaxy Note8 is also equipped with 8MP Smart Auto Focus front-facing camera for sharp selfies and video chats.

Galaxy Note8 packs in enhanced performance and features that have redefined the mobile experience:

With Samsung’s intelligent interface Bixby, the phone adapts to user and not the other way around. It is a smarter way to use the phone and get more done. Bixby Voice capability will be introduced in India in the next few weeks on Galaxy Note8 and Galaxy S8 & S8+ devices. Being true to Samsung’s legacy of bringing customer centric innovations for the Indian market, Bixby has now been optimized to understand English in Indian accents.

Galaxy Note8 will be offered to consumers at a price of INR 67,900 and will be available in India starting September 21, 2017 in Midnight Black and Maple Gold colours. The device will be available for pre-booking from September 12, 2017 across selected retail stores and also online exclusively on Samsung Shop and Amazon.in.
