Samsung just took the wraps off of the latest addition to their Galaxy Note series, and while there wasn’t much that wasn’t already known about the phone, all the various color options of the Galaxy Note 8 really need to be seen in the flesh. For a lot of consumers, including me, the color of your smartphone makes all the difference in the world, so here is a closer look at all the available colors of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8!
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has an outstanding camera, one that was briefly at the top of the DxoMark best smartphone camera tree (until it was knocked off its perch by the Google Pixel 2). Its video recording capabilities are also standout, but if you want to squeeze even more out of the Note 8 camera, now you can, thanks to a mod from the XDA Developers forums.

As with most smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy S10 phones have their version of what’s commonly called Airplane Mode. Basically, turning on Airplane Mode on the Galaxy S10 shuts down all wireless hardware (cellular, Wi-Fi and even Bluetooth) until Airplane Mode is turned off again. Airplane Mode was put into most phones because up until a few years ago, airlines did not allow the use of connected smartphones while in flight.
