Hi guys
My trusty phone slipped out of my hand today, fell onto concrete and shattered the entire display. It is not economical to repair it so I have been looking at a new phone and I was hoping someone could help me decide between a Mate 10 Pro or a Note 8.
I am thinking with the price of the Mate 10 pro now being 300-350 new from CPW and even slightly cheaper other places, this is probably a no-brainer especially with its specs and that awesome 4000ma battery
However, something keeps drawing me to the Note 8. I don't know if its the stunning screen or the S-pen. But the cheapest I can find online is 4gadgets "pristine" condition pre-owned for 440 or 509 "new" from Empire which is a UAE import according to reviews online. I definitely do not want to pay 600-850 for it from an official source like CPW.
I've literally spent the entire day watching youtube videos comparing them both and tried both in my local CPW and I'm still at a dead end.
Have any of you owned both and which one would you pick? And if it is the Note 8, are you guys aware of any good deals?
p.s. I am aware the Mate 20 pro is coming out in a couple of weeks but it will be priced at about 900 which is too rich for my blood. I'm really looking to spend 300-500 max
