For business users, some things are imperative when you’re on the go and trying to get work done on your smartphone. From responding to emails to annotating documents, even toggling between multiple windows while dialing into a conference call, it can be a real challenge to work solely using the productivity tools on your mobile device.
With Samsung’s Galaxy Note8, however, we make working from your mobile device, dare we say, easy. Thanks to the 6.3-in. Infinity Display, the S Pen, numerous smart productivity tools, oh and we can’t forget the wonderful app pair feature, the Note8 makes it easier to do more — and do it better. And, switching to the Galaxy Note8 won’t take long, and certainly won’t pose any problems thanks to the Samsung Smart Switch. In one seamless move, you can transfer contacts, photos, music, messages and other data, making the upgrade to the Note8 simply irrefutable.
So, without further ado, we give you the top 10 reasons why you should switch to the Galaxy Note8.
1. Protect Your Company’s Data
If you know security is imperative, you know Samsung Knox is top-notch. With Knox’s defense-grade security, you no longer need to worry if your employees are keeping business data safe. Built from the chip up, Samsung Knox provides a security platform for serious protection and integrates closely with all the leading MDM solutions.
2. Increase Your Productivity
Cue the S Pen. This snazzy little pen gives you full control over your device. Use Screen Off Memo to take notes in a meeting without even unlocking your screen, or mark up PDFs on the go. The S Pen provides higher levels of usability for business applications on the Note8’s generous 6.3-in. screen. Like the Note8, the S Pen is water and dust-resistant, meaning you can use it to capture signatures or take notes, even in industries where getting caught in the rain happens frequently on the job.
3. Be More Efficient
Did you know that Note users already multitask 40 percent more than other Galaxy owners? It’s not a coincidence. With App Pair, Note8 users can launch two apps with one tap and use them side-by-side on the Infinity Display. Need to jump on a conference call while on the go? No problem. Simply pair your calendar and your phone keypad and you’ll have everything you need in one place, on one screen. Gone are the days of jumping back and forth between apps, wasting precious time and making silly mistakes. No need to worry about the number of apps you have open: The 10nm processor and 6GB RAM will keep you running at top speed.
4. Snap Pro Pics
We get it — life isn’t all work and no play. That’s why we equipped the Note8 with the world’s first Dual Camera with Optical Image Stabilization on both lenses (yes, you read that right). Whether you’re shooting in the dark or from a distance, photos are clear. Clear Zoom allows you to zoom in closer with less blur so you can capture great portraits and enjoy low-light clarity for incredible photos. Does the photog in you want more control? Switch to Pro Mode for all the options you’d expect from a pro camera. With Live Focus, you can focus on what you want, when you want to. Change the depth-of-field to make your subject stand out, and you can even see what it’ll look like before you take the photo. But, it’s not only beneficial after hours. You’ve never looked as good as you will on the front-facing camera — perfect for video conferencing when you’re OOO.
5. See More, Scroll Less
Whether you’re reviewing PDFs, working on Excel spreadsheets or watching videos on demand, you’ll have all the advantages of a 6.3-in. Infinity Display in the palm of your hand. Working outdoors or from a cab on the way to a meeting? No need to worry about the sun putting a damper on your productivity, the Note8 is unbelievably bright when you need it most. Boasting sharp, true-to-life color with the Mobile HDR Premium-certified Super AMOLED display, the Note8 will give you a cinema-quality screen, and with the 83 percent screen-to-body ratio, you’ll have more screen to work with and less phone to hold. What more could you ask for?
6. Enable the Mobile Worker With DeX
Imagine sitting down at your desk with just your Note8 in hand, docking it into your DeX Station, plugging in a simple keyboard and mouse, and having all of your work right there at your fingertips. With DeX, it’s literally that simple. You can work in multiple, resizable windows, use drag and drop with your mouse and all the standard keyboard shortcuts on an intuitive desktop, powered by your phone. Working remotely? Leave your laptop at the office and travel lightly with just your Note8 and DeX — no need to lug around anything more. Traveling for work? Plug DeX in anywhere there’s a screen — it’s HDMI-enabled so pretty much any TV or monitor will work. Plus, it works great with Office 365 and advanced apps such as Adobe Lightroom.
7. Get More Done With DeX + VDI
With Samsung DeX, you can run virtualized Windows desktops and apps with enterprise-ready virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solutions from Citrix, VMware and Amazon. It’s simple — dock your Note8 into DeX and get to work. The Note8 easily integrates into your existing virtualized environments so your team can get more done, easily and more seamlessly than ever. Employees can use their existing credentials to set up and log in, just like they’d do from the office. Thanks to the Note8, you’ve got all of the advantages of VDI on a smartphone managed by your MDM.
8. Separate Work + Personal – Part 1: Secure Folder
Keeping data secure shouldn’t just be of interest to your employer; it’s important to keep your personal data secure, too. That’s where Secure Folder comes in. It supports keeping your work and personal information separate, while still utilizing that defense-grade security that Samsung Knox offers. Drop all of your personal apps in one place and add multi-authentication to secure it — use biometrics or enter your PIN to access. Need to access your personal bank account? No problem. Just keep your personal apps in your Secure Folder and access them whenever, wherever, all from the same device.
9. Separate Work + Personal – Part 2: Dual Messenger
Are you juggling Facebook Messenger for work as well as your own personal account? Now, thanks to Note8’s Dual Messenger, you’ll never have to switch back and forth or re-log into accounts again — simply run the app as two separate instances. You can have two social accounts open and active at the same time. And it isn’t just Facebook, but also WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber, LINE, Skype and more. Dual Messenger lets you separate your work life from your personal life, giving you the ideal work-life integration.
10. Switching Made Easy
Let’s just get right down to it. Switching from an old mobile device to a new device, whether it’s a Samsung device, an iPhone, even your computer (PC or Mac), is usually a major headache. Transferring over all of your data — your contacts, emails, photos, you name it — used to be a bear, but with Samsung’s Smart Switch, transitioning from one device to another is undeniably effortless. There are three simple ways: transfer content directly from your old phone wirelessly, transfer content directly from your old phone via USB cable, or transfer content from a PC or Mac to your new Galaxy Note8 phone.
Equipped with the next generation of productivity tools, the Note8 is built for multitasking, letting you work from your mobile device anytime, from anywhere.
