T-Mobile AT&T Verizon Sprint Samsung Android Picks

So, the Galaxy Note 8 is out and it's as awesome as expected. Top notch hardware, super shiny design, all the software features Samsung could come up with and then some, a new telephoto lens camera with OIS, so on and so forth. It's the bee's knees in every aspect for sure, but there's no perfect phone out there, right?

Yup, there isn't. So, we took out our nitpick glasses and scanned the Note 8 for anything and everything that rubs us the wrong way. We have to say, it wasn't easy, but here are 5 gripes we have with the Note 8. Got some of your own to add? Drop them in the comments down below!
