Stylish with a stylus, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is launching in South Africa on 22 September 2017 and Takealot.com has an exclusive presales launch bundle, which includes a free Dex stand and keyboard (64GB model) as well as the chic new phone. The offering is proving very popular, with the first order coming in just three hours after it went live.
Pre-orders went live on 23 August and the Internet is abuzz with techies and Samsung enthusiasts enthusing over the phone’s sexy screen (arguably the best on the market), wireless charging capability, dust and water resistance, smart Bixby virtual assistance and slick S Pen.
The release of the phone has further entrenched Samsung’s position as lord of the crowded smartphone field, with top market share. The Galaxy Note 8 boasts a top-notch infinity screen spanning edge-to-edge on handsets, along with 2 12-megapixel cameras both with OIS.
Julie-Anne Walsh from Takealot says, “We’re proud to be offering South Africans an exclusive bundle that includes the new Note 8, plus a top-of-the-range Samsung Dex station and keyboard.”
When the Galaxy Note 8 is docked in the Dex Station, a special Dex mode is launched on the connected external monitor and applications, allowing instant access to files, documents and stream videos simultaneously, on a bigger display. This is complemented by the lightweight, foldable Bluetooth keyboard.
Walsh continued, “At Takealot.com, we always aim to offer our customers that little something extra. This is one of our most exciting device launches of the year and we’re always thrilled to work with Samsung. We launched our dedicated Samsung store earlier this year and, from smartphones to wearable tech, their products are always bestsellers.”
