I have an HTC Sensation, and it's a great phone for its time... but... The battery life absolutely SUCKS! As I have a Note 8.0 3G, I'm considering getting a really cheap phone that takes great photos and has exceptional battery life. Alternatively, I may just get a couple of Anker extended batteries for my Seny. It takes great photos after all.

Any issues tethering it with your note? I have an older blackberry thats running OS7.1. I can use it as a mobile hotspot to tether to my tablet but with mixed results. Sometimes, despite having full signal, the time it takes to open up a webpage on my tablet is in minutes.

I just use my Note 8.0. Since I have the International Version. It is 3G but pulls speeds of 3.5G. Which means it almost has the same speeds as 4G. Phone works like a charm, very clear and I dont have any dropped calls. My previous phone was the Galaxy Tab Plus 7 3G. It was great running on At&t network. But Note 8.0 was a huge job in performance. My main reason for getting the International version was to eliminate carrying two devices. I carry my Note 8.0 with a holster from eHolster.com

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
We can get sim only deals in the UK, so its much cheaper to keep an old phone than to upgrade to a new one. I only use my phone for calls, emails and text (including whatsapp messenger) mostly and use my tablet for everything else. So i have no need to get a fancy new handset.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] xT4Z1N4TRx:
The Nexus 4 complements the Note 8 really well. When in the car I plug my N4 into the car charger, and tether it to my note. For £12 I get unlimited data and texts, 350 minutes, so theres no point in me buying the 3G version IMO (plus I wouldn't like taking the Note 8 out because its so big)

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ----------

I used the Verizon branded Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 as my phone prior to getting the N5100. Like the ATT Note 8, it had the telephony capability removed, so I used a Google Voice number with Talkatone and GrooveIP. I found that VoIP worked very well on Verizon's LTE network, as good as a cell phone ~ 85% of the time. When I broke the device, I got the N5100 with the intent of doing the same thing (because data only plans are much cheaper than voice + data plans). What I discovered is that VoIP didn't perform as well on ATT's 3G network in my area. I reluctantly ended up getting a cell phone plan for it.

I think bluetooth headsets can be kind of finicky on Samsung tablets. On the 7.7 I frequently had problems with it picking up calls. This may be less of an issue with the 8. I don't know for sure- I haven't used it much because it's more convenient to hold it up to my head to talk. :D

Your ATT sim should work in your Note 8. Pop it in and let us know how well VoIP works for you.

Came with Bluetooth Headset

If memory serves me correctly, when I bought my Note 8, it was the first week it landed in Hong Kong. It is the 4G LTE version. They were doing a promotion in which they gave away a Samsung Bluetooth Headset. So I basically use the Note 8 as my phone now. Sure it's big, but better that than carrying around 2 devices. And I am not going the Smart Watch route. Unless of course I got it for free.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Blåburk:
Got a Galaxy Note (1/the first one) aka SGN1

True, the screen size difference between the the Note "the phone" and Note 8 "the Tablet" is very small (5,3" vs 8"). Still the phone is used away from home while the Note 8 is used at home as a computer replacement.

Got me the Note8 instead of a planned low price computer for surfing and other simple tasks, but today all low-end PCs comes with Win8. I just can't stand that user Interface that Win8 have.

only advantage with the use of another S device is to be able to read notes taken from your Note8

but be aware that if you lose/delete your Samsung account every note you've taken will be erased from all devices !!

Earlier I posted that my phone is the Galaxy Nexus. Very soon it looks like it will be the Nexus 5! Can you tell I'm a bit excited?

However, if the N5 is stupidly priced, I might just spend more (presumably) and get the Note 3. Although then I might sell the Note 8 and get an up and coming Core i5 Windows 8.1 tablet (with some kind of keyboard solution) to replace the tablet with a computer and use the Note 3 as my phablet.

Wow...how's that for a stream of consciousness? LOL

After a couple of months using my n5100 as tablet and phone I have to say I am more than happy. The battery life is amazing. I have never a phone maintaining battery most of the day. I mean working days: many calls, internet, use as note taking, email...

During weekend I use my old note I.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] JC Soriano:
Been pondering on this too.

I had a Note 1 with my Note 8 once.. and i was really confused on which device to use sometimes since their functions overlap. At the moment im using a Blackberry 9900 along side my Note 8(3G). I think it works well for me, since BB9900 is a really really good communications phone. I like having two different ecosystem (OS) coz there's small chance that the functions of both would overlap. I'm good with this set up for now.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
My upgrade is due on the 18th. I was sure for almost the last 6 months that I would just get another blackberry as I like a keyboard. In the last 2 weeks though I went from there to android (either LG G2 or HTC One) to an iPhone 5s. I can beleive it. I've never owned an apple device before and have always thought the premium you pay for the privelage is a waste. Now here I am about to buy their latest and greatest. The form factor, camera, processor and app store is what swayed me. I think it will make an ideal companion to my Note 8. I get best of both worlds.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] martyh1:
Would be interesting to hear your experience with the 5s. I really like Apple's hardware but just won't get sucked into their ecosystem. And it really is crazy to me that iOS is still the basic same design with no options to change the home screen other than move icons around, after how many years!?

I'm really liking the Moto X after playing with it at Best Buy a few times. That might be my next phone (along side my Note 8) and ditch the size of my Note 2 (although I've loved it for the most part).
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
I'm contemplating jailbreaking it once I get it so that I can customise the UI, add widgets and additional functionality once I receive it. I think you can add a few minor things to the homescreen with IOS 7, but there are plenty of apps once jailbroken to add further functionality to that (news feeds etc).

I dont see myself losing any android functionality as I will have my tablet with me 90% of the time. I just see it as gaining IOS functionality in a reasonably sized handset. I will probably buy a few apps again from itunes that would work better on a phone but the majority of my games and productivity stuff will remain on my tablet.

I wish they had expandable memory. I want the 32gb handset but am struggling to justify the addition £80 outlay for an extra 16gb. I just know that if I do run out of space on a 16gb one, I would be very frustrated.

Was using Note 2, recently switched to Nexus 5.

I really enjoyed the Note 2 functionality and size before getting the Note 8. After I got it, I felt that the Note 8 was better for the "Note" functions, and that the size of the Note 2 began to be an impedement. Very happy (so far) with my new combination.

BTW, also have Nexus 10 for more of the home media consumption/browsing/games. Note 8 is my more of my mobile tablet, and useful in lectures, meetings, etc.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Alfablos:
Hi! I'm using a Samsung Galaxy SIII LTE (9305) besides my Note 8. I mean I use my 9305 when It's not away due to fixing up; I bought It 6 months ago but I sent it twice to assistance (90 days waiting each), so I'm really thinking of switching to nexus 5. It may be a little off topic, if so I can send you a PM, but may I ask you how your Nexus 5 is doing? How is Its battery duration and camera? These are the issues I'm most concerned for... Also, in my country Google Now is still very little developed, anyway I was wondering if there was the way to trigger It from the lockscreen, maybe with a little workaround... You know, It would be awesome, when driving, to just push the power button and say (from the lockscreen "Ok Google, send a message to..." :) just like Samsung S-Voice (which, I think isn't succesfully ported to nexus devices yet) does.

Speaking of the Note 8, I chose the 3G+wifi version because I thought I would need, from time to time, a bigger screen for my phone and of course the possibility to download book or whatever outside! I turned out to be the right decision as my SIII LTE has spent more time on assistance than with me -.-
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] RavenY2K3:

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] sashusmom:
I have been an android girl for the last 3 years. I had an offer too good to pass up and now have an iphone 5s. I also have the orig.Note, and just picked up the Note 8 wifi. I am comparing it to the Nexus 7 lte and one will be going back soon. I have had the orig. Nexus 7 since release. Just passed it on to my daughter and she loves it.

The iphone 5s is pretty much a stand alone phone. It doesn't really play well with android tablets. It doesn't have mighty text which is a great app to text anywhere- tablets, PC, phone integration. I miss this the most. But apps that are android only, and iphone only apps give me the best of both worlds. I have a windows phone 8 521 and love that too!

I've been using a 3GS for years, I bought my Note in the summer. Just purchased the souped up S4 I9506, hopefully it will make a good combo with the tablet. I was very close to getting the LG G2, but I decided to take a punt on i9506 due to it having the same Snapdragon 800.

My Note 8.0 is rooted and has civato's kernel. Phone only arrived today, will stay strictly stock for the time being since development has barely started and no CF-Autoroot as yet. Plus I'm not sure what the deal with Knox is and I'm not going to gamble on the warranty right away.

I was wondering if there's anything, apart from standard Android things, that I can share or sync between the two Sammys?
