To be honest, a 3,300 mAh battery doesn't sound bad, but it could be a problem as even the Galaxy S8+ cannot offer more than a day's worth of battery life with its 3,500 mAh cell, and that's on a good day with not-so-heavy usage. It would also be an issue for anyone looking to use the Note 8 has a dual SIM device. The Galaxy Note 5 had excellent endurance for a phone with a 3,000 mAh battery, however, and we can expect Samsung to optimize the Note 8 in a similar fashion. We can also take solace in the fact that Samsung's new batteries can retain up to 95 percent of their capacity after a year.
Nothing is certain at this point, and only real world battery life figures will tell us the actual story. But with a 3,300 mAh battery looking more and more like a certainty, we thought we would ask our readers what their take is on the matter. You know what to do. Let us know your opinion through the poll below, and leave a comment to get the discussion going in the comments section.
Results: As expected, a majority of the voters (48 percent) think a 3,300 mAh battery would be too small, while 34 percent of voters will be waiting for battery life figures before passing judgement. The other 19 percent think the battery will be good enough.
