Saturn: Galaxy Note 8 at the best price & Steelbook Blu-rays reduced

Saturn.de is currently offering Samsung’s former phablet flagship, the Galaxy Note 8, at a particularly good price. In addition, numerous Steelbook Blu-rays are discounted.

Well-aged high-end smartphone: Although the Galaxy Note 8 was released in 2017, it still holds up very well in terms of specifications compared to current models.

The features:

• 6.3 inch AMOLED display with 2,960 x 1,440 pixels and HDR support
• Samsung’s in-house Exynos chip with eight CPU cores and up to 2.3 GHz along with 6 GB of RAM
• The rear dual-camera offers 12 megapixels along with optical image stabilization and can record videos up to 2160p at 30 fps.
• The built-in storage is 64 GB and can be expanded via microSD slot (Android 9.0 available via update).
• The 3,300 mAh battery is non-removable and supports wireless charging (Qi, PMA).
• IP68 certification against water and dust
• Includes stylus for pen operation
• Ports and interfaces: USB-C 3.1 Gen 1 (OTG), 3.5mm jack, WLAN 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, ANT+, fingerprint sensor

User feedback: The Galaxy Note 8 is almost universally positively rated, especially in terms of its good specifications. However, the battery life is sometimes criticized as being needing improvement.

In further testing: Chip.de gave a rating of 90.8 percent and found mainly good things about the model:

The Galaxy Note 8 performs well in our
tests. The dimensions remain moderate compared to the Galaxy S8
Plus and iPhone 7 Plus. A real highlight is the
beautiful, edge-to-edge display as well as the dual-lens camera with
2x zoom.

We also like the new
S-Pen features. Given the price, Samsung could have been more generous with the internal storage. It’s also a shame that at launch,
it ran Android 7 and not the new Android 8 Oreo.

Savings: Saturn.de currently offers the Galaxy Note 8 shipping free for 389 Euros instead of the MSRP of 999 Euros. In the price comparison at Geizhals.de, it is listed as available starting at 444 Euros.

With the “Saturn Card”, you can currently save another 10 percent, which we have already covered in a separate announcement.

The same applies to the discounted Blu-rays in Steelbook packaging, with various films available for just 7.99 Euros each. The promotion runs here until Monday at 9 am.
