3:00 and if you want to extend your battery life just change the wallpaper to a pitch black, that will allow pixels to be turned off. Looks pretty amazing on this screen.
Note 8 users just ignore the Apple Faithful in the comments with there closed minds These comments are just personal biases based on personal experience. Using both operating systems I can tell you the note 8 runs very well. These tips are provided just to have a bit of extra punch not that you need it. But if you do here you go :)
their* and yes. I agree. I have experience with both Android and Apple. I see the little perks of both. I see the faults of both. and I make a conscious decision to stick with Android now. I have a Galaxy Note 5 that does everything these iPhones do. 4K raw video. I USE the stylus. I want this galaxy Note 8. I wish we still had IR sensor and removable battery. My two main complaints. I'll go ahead and blame Apple for streamlining that garbage.
You don't need Greenify on Galaxy Note 8. Go to Settings, Device maintenance, Battery and in Unmonitored apps select the ones you want or need to run all the times. Then select power saving mode. That's it.
One thing I do is to turn the animations to 0.5x and when I root, I turn them to 0.25x, the transitions are super fast. Nova launcher does feel speedier than stock samsung launcher. Another thing is that you don't need to be killing apps everytime, that actually slows down performance because they will need to be loaded into RAM again. The Note 8 has plenty of RAM, it will take around 26 apps to make a previously opened app to reload. Greenify seems to have the opposite effect on my phone, actually draining battery faster. Turn on the auto-reboot option to reboot the phone once a week to keep it working smoothly. iPhone users can say whatever, they can do very limited stuff with their phones, so the beast there is pretty much caged.
I had the same problem with greenify... heard that and figured he got paid to say. This app will constantly run in your background to turn off apps running in your background...
These really aren't any tips to BEAST mode your Note 8. Doing all this, you won't notice a difference at all. Maybe some better battery life with not having Sync on. Poor poor tips.
When i clicked this vid i tought you would show something meaningful but according to this video to make your note 8 beast simply do not use all the thing that makes it amazing. Great POV.
Nick, 1) Greenify is truly unneeded in modern Android versions. Settings-> Device maintenance-> Battery has a comprehensive set of "Greenify" features built in. 2) One antimalware is free, ridiculously fast, small and capable: webroot. It even provides some identity protection in the background. Once installed it is basically invisible, which I like. 3) Many are not aware of www.google.com/android/devicemanager -- built in capability to find your phone, ring it (even w/ ringer turned off), and wipe it if you can't get it back. 4) I too like Nova launcher. Switched a while ago and have not looked back.
Omg, are we talking about N8 now? As far as I know, the phone itself it's a beast! Whatever you saying here can be applied to other low-end phones. Thanks for the tips, Maestro!
Hey I bet if you just use it as a calculator and get rid of the annoying homescreen and all that garbage, it would be the fastest calculator in the world. Imagine how many sums you could get done.
These rips helped out a lot ,thanks,I didn't even know about maintenance mode, all of things are available on my s7 edge as well ,thanks again, subs up
Watermelon what's wrong with the battery? Lasts me all day every day and way better then iPhones batteries. That does not mean I assume your an isheep but just saying.
Honestly, the only bad thing is that the screen scratches very easily small ones at that but still there so I would recommend to get a screen protector and honestly a screen protector covers up the scratches anyway so all good
Hey Nick thanks for all your advice on keeping the Note 8 running smooth. Question when a update comes out do you update you Note 8 or will the update miss up your phone?
Thanks it worked! one clarification though: in the European Note 8 (Exynos) you have to go to About Phone then Software Information. Then from there you can see the screen with Android Version & Build Number.
I purchased a note 8 and returned it for a plus 8. As a person tuned into Apple as far as communication and networking is concerned, tinge iPhone 8 plus is great. Overall I had a.l great appreciation for the Note 8. The bixby app was incredible and will be a powerhouse for Samsung. Seeing an app learn in real time is dope. I found the phone froze several times but that may be due to amount of apps downloading and movement through screens. iPhone 8 screen is easier on my eyes. I really think both phones are great and people should dedicate their energy to figuring out what is best for them. The versus battle will always be there and I’m sure both companies appreciate it.
Which screen protector are you using to get such good screen response? I'm using the one I bought at AT&T, and have to tap on the screen up to 7 or 8 times for it to register... 😣
Age-old trick that changes the animations, not really the speed of the phone. As a bonus, it makes your phone more unstable and prone to errors and app crashes. Note 8 doesn't need any such tweaks, it's perfect the way it is. If you get bored, get a new phone or change themes.
@Nick Ackerman what is the oval and circle things at the top left of the speaker on the phone I have the note 8 also and the dual camera is on the right curious to what is on the left? Thanks
as an alternative, try : a. nova launcher without ads b. turn down the resolution c. activate developer mode and change animations to 0.5x d. when you're not using the phone much , turn on medium powersave
Nick Great reviews on the Note I have no clue why people are commenting on sheep crap. I have been watching you a while now.And I have watched you Review every device and then some.Keep up Excellent Reviews.Awesome Work and always enjoy.Deb✌️👍
Some great tips and thanks for putting them together. Just a personal tip, can you slow it down a bit. I have had to stop and replay many times to catch it all. It is easy for you in the know but trying to find stuff the first time is a bit time consuming. I am not saying silly slow but you do rush along a fair bit.
"handicapping"... by making it animate a bit faster and save data... who said common sense again? how do you handicap a superb phone by minimal tweaks?
as i see in your device, there is no OEM UNLOCK option, in developers menu, the same, as i have. so what need to do, to get back that Oem Unlock menu ???
Suggestion to maybe hold the camera further away from the devices in order to allow for the new aspect ratios. Just a suggestion. Great video and tips even for vets.
How much time or use does this take foe this device to be old I got it on 2022 feb from my uncle Now i dont think this will run for a lot of time Yeah it is smooth but isn't it outdated? Galaxy note 8 in 2022 Especially gaming??
I'm coming from a note 3 and this phone has zero lag and the battery is actually pretty good. I am confident this will stay this way and I am really surprised as lag issues and battery life has always been a problem with me on the note 3. The screen size is just perfect for me. Can't wait for that android o update though. If you turn off animations you will struggle with multi tasking. You have been warned. It makes app switching jaggy
Blidaru Mihai Yes! I'm a creative, the Spen is a indispensable tool for when I get ideas where ever I am at, the 8 Plus is arriving soon to the channel but it won't replace my Note 8 but I will still cover many videos on the device to help you guys out :)
You know date looks super oversaturated LOL what are your settings for display? Mine are adaptive display but I turned the red balance all the way down because it makes the screen look way too saturated in my opinion
Why would I buy such a high end device and turn all background and resource intensive processes off? I've turned everything on (except Bixby) and still get a beastly performance.
Hi, I have a question, how do I undo the beastmode? I.have an annoying icon at the top of my screen that won't go away. It happened after I followed along....
The problem if you install any launcher on samsung notes you will loose some of the pen features , like you cant use it to write simple sms using the pen. What do you think of that !!?

Nick Ackerman I'm loving my Samsung galaxy note 8, great video.
Just switch from Apple to the note 8. While the size has been tough to get used to I can say this thing blazes

Mr. Sanchez....didn't you "Break Samsung Pay/Knox" in the process?/ You know you cant go back ...Right!!
Manuel Guillen Yes, I know. Those things don't work in my country, so I was ok with that.
I had the same problem with greenify... heard that and figured he got paid to say. This app will constantly run in your background to turn off apps running in your background...

Note 8 is a BEAST out the box man!
When i clicked this vid i tought you would show something meaningful but according to this video to make your note 8 beast simply do not use all the thing that makes it amazing. Great POV.
Hi. Thanks for the video upload. Towards the end, are you saying that Samsung has a built in virus scanner on the Note 8?
Nick,
1) Greenify is truly unneeded in modern Android versions. Settings-> Device maintenance-> Battery has a comprehensive set of "Greenify" features built in.
2) One antimalware is free, ridiculously fast, small and capable: webroot. It even provides some identity protection in the background. Once installed it is basically invisible, which I like.

I just did it. Lightning fast now. I needed this. I love you
Hey I bet if you just use it as a calculator and get rid of the annoying homescreen and all that garbage, it would be the fastest calculator in the world. Imagine how many sums you could get done.
Neanderthal LOL!!!!!
This shit shit is funny as hell. Why would someone buy a 1000 dollar phone and disable everything
These rips helped out a lot ,thanks,I didn't even know about maintenance mode, all of things are available on my s7 edge as well ,thanks again, subs up
Note 8 is beast 😎.. And dope video btw
Akash Thakur battery ... boy

Kevin Smith I get my Note 8 on monday
will see
Honestly, the only bad thing is that the screen scratches very easily small ones at that but still there so I would recommend to get a screen protector and honestly a screen protector covers up the scratches anyway so all good
Kevin Smith thank you for the info
Great video Nick Ackerman. Can you tell me the screen protector you have for that Note 8?
Performance mode really makes the animation smoother and the phone feels snappier.
Hey Nick thank you so much for this it made my Note 8 more awesome. I'm still getting to know my Note 8 and I love it. Thanks again✌
Hello Nick, I like the screen protector that you are using on this phone. Mind to share where you get it from? TQ
+Fandiey Mertadza hello there here’s the link where I got them! amzn.to/2fOA7lv
Hey Nick thanks for all your advice on keeping the Note 8 running smooth. Question when a update comes out do you update you Note 8 or will the update miss up your phone?

Thank you for your response, it clears up a lot of confusion and frustration. I wish the guys doing the videos would explain this to us low tech guys.

Thanks for all the tips do you have any for volume problems with blootooth speakers finding a big diffrence when I compare it to iphone
Nice video Nick! Love both Android and IOS!
I am loving my note 8...literally awesome at everything
HI.. did you put tempered glass or only a film protector screen on the phone??
Nice!!! Used the high performance mode and Dev mode trick set to zero, also Bixby.
Although I have a crazy live wall papper, I notice it already
Which screen protector is this?? Please?? I need such a full cover one but not glass, just thin plastic.
Wow thanks for the tips man! I changed my animation settings and used the greenify app it's running faster than before!
Which screen protector are you using to get such good screen response? I'm using the one I bought at AT&T, and have to tap on the screen up to 7 or 8 times for it to register... 😣
thanks men! this video really helped me speed up my phone am soo gratefull
How many times he said Beast Mode!!! Lol great drinking game.
kartoon33, he is clearly an idiot, just for thinking that he has something substantial to advise to us....
Almost as many times as he said, "go ahead and..."
kartoon33 it was at least 40 times.
I think the term 'beast mode' comes from the anime 'Neon Genesis Evangelion'
That's awesome, how did you get the taskbar at the bottom invisable? I want that too:)
Very good review my friend, you talk very nice, love Note-8 i want buy, thanks for sharing, 🙂👍
Useful tips
Now my note8 running super fast.

Hey Nick, my GN8 is super fast now. Thanks for the 0.5 animation tip!
+Android 26 Awesome! Your very welcome!
So buy a $1000 phone and disable everything. Got it.
😭
Thats the just of it, makes no sense to me. Major click bait
Hahah
Great video ❣️you got a like and new subscriber
Thanks for the enormous amount of valuable information. this is amazing

@Nick Ackerman what is the oval and circle things at the top left of the speaker on the phone I have the note 8 also and the dual camera is on the right curious to what is on the left? Thanks
as an alternative, try :
a. nova launcher without ads
b. turn down the resolution
c. activate developer mode and change animations to 0.5x
d. when you're not using the phone much , turn on medium powersave
hello nick i would like to know what app do you recomend to download music
Im going to like your video just because i have a powerfull note 8
Great Video man!
It's correct for all android phone, no special for NOTE 8....
And NOTE 8 very fast device without "your best mode"...
All this guy has done for me, is make me hate the phrase "beast mode"... thanks for that.
Nick Great reviews on the Note I have no clue why people are commenting on sheep crap. I have been watching you a while now.And I have watched you Review every device and then some.Keep up Excellent Reviews.Awesome Work and always enjoy.Deb✌️👍
+Debra Dukes Thank you very much for the support Debra! There just haters that’s all. Pay them no attention :)
I appreciate the idea of keeping things lean and uncluttered, but if I hear "beast mode' one more time.......
Some great tips and thanks for putting them together. Just a personal tip, can you slow it down a bit. I have had to stop and replay many times to catch it all. It is easy for you in the know but trying to find stuff the first time is a bit time consuming. I am not saying silly slow but you do rush along a fair bit.
Where do you buy that tempered glass ?? , which is have a hole for front camera
Worked well for me! Thank you
Greenify?? Note 8 automatically puts unused apps to sleep... dude come on!!
animation reduction was awesome thanks!
+sheldon jessup your welcome Happy this helped you out!
"Turn sync off?"
Are you kidding me !!!!!
Andrew Simons ya fuck syncing.
I always have it off
all these tips suck these are minimal at best and you are handicapping your already beastly phone. just use common sense really
I guess some people just don't need their phones for work.
"handicapping"... by making it animate a bit faster and save data... who said common sense again? how do you handicap a superb phone by minimal tweaks?
Im still using this beast of a phone!
same but I just want the newer gesture bar instead of the old one
Nick, you are F-king awesome, thank You
+AVRENTALMIAMI Thank you much happy this video help you out!

as i see in your device, there is no OEM UNLOCK option, in developers menu, the same, as i have. so what need to do, to get back that Oem Unlock menu ???

Surprised you didn't throw airplane mode in there
awsomDixie lol
🤦🏻♀️😂😂😂😂
How much time or use does this take foe this device to be old
I got it on 2022 feb from my uncle
Now i dont think this will run for a lot of time
Yeah it is smooth but isn't it outdated?
Galaxy note 8 in 2022
Especially gaming??
*Question:* Do these phones slow down with performance overtime?
Is the optimization on the edge panel for specific carrier branded devices because I don't see that on my Galaxy Note 8
Oh gosh, NOVA LAUNCHER. DID THIS A YEAR AGI ON MY S7 EDGE, highly recommend this.
Apart from deactivating sync, some nice tips here.
Galaxy Note 8 just got an OS upgrade to Android Pie. This phone gets better and better :-)
I'm coming from a note 3 and this phone has zero lag and the battery is actually pretty good. I am confident this will stay this way and I am really surprised as lag issues and battery life has always been a problem with me on the note 3. The screen size is just perfect for me. Can't wait for that android o update though. If you turn off animations you will struggle with multi tasking. You have been warned. It makes app switching jaggy
Nick, are you rolling Note 8 from now on?
I got one of myself but I'm considering buying an Iphone 8+
Blidaru Mihai Yes! I'm a creative, the Spen is a indispensable tool for when I get ideas where ever I am at, the 8 Plus is arriving soon to the channel but it won't replace my Note 8 but I will still cover many videos on the device to help you guys out :)
Nick Ackerman You... so blazing fast on replying.... couldn't even sneeze
Note 8 or iPhone x? Please
Brandon Kramsky Note 8 hands down.
Blidaru Mihai iphone 8+ r shit
You know date looks super oversaturated LOL what are your settings for display? Mine are adaptive display but I turned the red balance all the way down because it makes the screen look way too saturated in my opinion
Why would I buy such a high end device and turn all background and resource intensive processes off? I've turned everything on (except Bixby) and still get a beastly performance.
Ty dude helped me out great
Just saw video re:beast mode. U mentioned antivirus apps. I already have one installed. Do they have me or can I delete without damage?
Great video. Love this phone even MORE now
How is rocken a iphone 7 plus in 2020
Thanks it really helped.🎉
Did you have to purchase and download the device management panel on the edge screen?
Kory Holding boo it's free it's come in the settings
Carnell Johnson I don't see it either
Great review, quick question. What is the available RAM on this device?
I’m surprised to see that S8 has only 1.3GB once everything is cleared down
+John Burns hello there John it is coming in at about 6GB of ram!
Nick Ackerman thanks, but is that the remaining available RAM? Some of it used up on system application?
John Burns unused ram is wasted ram
Hi, I have a question, how do I undo the beastmode? I.have an annoying icon at the top of my screen that won't go away. It happened after I followed along....
The problem if you install any launcher on samsung notes you will loose some of the pen features , like you cant use it to write simple sms using the pen.
What do you think of that !!?
I thought, Changing those Scale settings only effect if your using the native launcher. I have and always use Next Launcher.
Do you need beast mode when the note has 6gb of ram? I have one and it is extra fast
Wow man this is rocket science
I don't have the edge maintenance app. I looked for it and got something that looks like it. I tried to open it and nothing It just hung
I have a lot of apps in the folder I have 5 different folders but not on the home screen will that slow down my phone?
How did u get ur apps to that size without using nova launcher? I can't figure out how to make them larger on my home screen
Cliff Lee you need to go to home screen settings and change the home screen grid to 4*5
Beast mode by via gimp mode? I don’t get how it’s any kind of beast mode when you’re removing options
what screen protector are you using?
+Jerry Lee LK screen protector
What or those icons on the top of your screen from left to the plus icon
I just left my iPhone while getting the buy one get one note 8 on TMobile. Wow. This phone is insane.
I wish he said beass mode 400 more times
Hello, Nick. Please do a video about note 8 not turning on/won't charge
