7 Pro: Quality & Design
Samsung has really stepped up its design game in recent years, churning out handsets that are both aesthetically pleasing and constructed of the most premium-quality materials — and the Note 8 is certainly no exception. Simply put, the phablet is one of the most unique and attractive handsets I’ve ever owned.
It features a remarkably solid, aluminum-alloy and glass-plated chassis that’s framed around the outer edges with steel. And while the front and rear glass might shatter tremendously if you’re not careful, the Note 8 is still extremely comfortable to hold and operate in-hand — even despite its slightly larger footprint and heftier weight.
