Having dropped my S8+ yesterday and smashed the screen (£270 to get it fixed) - I'm tempted. However - although I could probably live with the cost difference, I'm hesitating because :

- I think the S8+ is better looking (prefer the more curved corners)
- Not sure that any of the things the Note8 offers over the S8+ will actually be much use to me (like the idea of the stylus but bet I never use it)
- Battery seems slightly worse than S8+ from what I've read
- The biggest one : I've only had the S8+ for a couple of months and really not sure I can be bothered to set another new phone up!

One of the reviews said the Note 8 is good but unless you love the s-pen and some other feature it has (can't remember what it was) an S8+ is virtually the same but a lot less cost.

Also, I'm not convinced that making phones longer and longer without making them wider to maintain proportions is ideal. I have a Nexus 6 and its a 6" screen but its much wider (relatively) than the Note 8/Galaxy 8/+

Anyone know if the 128GB version of the Note 8 will be available in the UK?

Is anyone on here getting one? The reviews of it are all positive so far.
Got mine today, but it's still in the box. Busy, busy....
