三星Galaxy Note 8.0评测：出彩与不足

Samsung Galaxy Note 简直就是一个怪胎，他间于NoteII与Note 10.1之间，融合和平板与手机的特点，是一个就像科学怪人弗兰肯斯坦一般的安卓设备。人们需要的是一个中等价位的8英寸的 wifi平板。

也就是说，价格对目标用户来讲，价格也许是Note 8.0 的唯一扣分项。尽管外观上看起来有点滑稽，但这仍然是一个坚实的具有很多长处的平板。三星这几年不遗余力的开发其TouchWiz界面，增加手写功能，这几乎可以使得人们原谅他将android操作系统改得体无完肤的事实。有些人喜欢三星的审美哲学，有些人不喜欢，对于那些喜欢的，希望得到一个更强大，更便携的Note 8.0 的人，比如我自己，最大的奢望莫过于其价格不高于350美元了。

出彩之处：

Form Factor: The 8-9" tablet size is a sweet spot between portability and function, and the Galaxy Note 8.0's relatively light weight makes it an easy travel companion. The smartphone-style buttons take some getting used to, but once you do, it feels great in one hand or two.
S-Pen: For those who enjoy the Note family's accurate screen and extra software, the Note 8.0 delivers. The pen itself is bigger than the Note II's and sturdier than the Note 10.1's, with satisfying travel in the tip. It's also the first Note stylus that works with the capacitive buttons.
Performance: a combination of Exynos quad-core, 2GB of RAM and the Mali-400 GPU make the Note 8.0 fast and efficient. It won't blow the latest and greatest hardware out of the water, but with specs roughly comparable to the international Galaxy S III, it's got plenty of oomph and decent battery life to boot.
Software: Say what you will about TouchWiz, but Samsung's additions to Android are finally starting to become useful, without slowing it down. The Smart Stay eye-tracking feature is particularly nice for tablets, as is multi-window, to say nothing of the S-Pen's tailored apps.
