Cool burn has been launching smartphone, mostly in the sub 10,000, to P segment with last smartphone was the cool part mega 5 8 and the latest one is the cool part, note 8, which is priced at 9999 booties, and for that you get face, unlock a four thousand William hour battery 64gb of internal storage. The thing is: cool pad has priced in a segment that is really hot and had seen perfect smartphones from the competition. So is the note 8 gear to take on the competition we review it to find out the coupon note.8 is made out of plastic and has a glossy finish at the back. We have seen a few smartphone makers offer premium materials like metal and glass around this price point. The note 8 is big, with the display measuring 5.9 9 inches and has the 18 is to 9 aspect ratios. It has thin bezels on the side and the ones on the top and the bottom are thicker.

In comparison, the notates pose a dual camera setup at the back and the module it is housed in protrude slightly. The fingerprint scanner is positioned below the camera module and is easy to beat. We notice that the glossy back picks up fine scratches easily, and our review unit had multiple hairline scratches around the pool pad branding at the back. We found the phone to be comfortable to hold thanks to the curved sides. It weighs 185 grams, which is slightly on the heavier side, but it is mainly because of the four thousand William hour battery cool pad ships, a 10 watt charger in the box, while manufacturers are introducing powerful processors at lower price points.

The note 8 sports and older media take six seven five zero SOC. It has a quad-core processor with all cores clocked at 1.5 gigahertz. There is 4gb of RAM and 64gb of internal storage, which is further expandable via the hybrid SIM tray slot. If you aren't using the hybrid SIM slot for the memory card, you can use two NATO Sims. The phone also gives you the option to treat micros card as primary storage.

There is support for 4G as well as vol T, but only on the first sense lot, while the other is restricted to 3G networks. Only cool patch ships denoted with android 8.0 Oreo. There are no custom, UI is on top, and you get stock android with a few apps pre-installed. Our unit was running the October security patch at the time of review, which is fairly recent. It also has the face unlock feature which uses the selfie camera to scan your face and unlock the smartphone.

It is quick to unlock the phone and when it fails to work, you can use the fingerprint scanner at the back to securely unlock the smartphone, while 4gb of RAM and 64gb of storage looks good on paper, the old MediaTek mt6752. What's the note 8 on the back foot, the processor is showing its aids now and feels out of place when running modern games, while playing Pusey mobile at the recommended medium settings, the phone got hot to the touch in a matter of minutes forcing us lower the graphics settings even with lower settings, the phone would get hot to the touch around the 15 minute. Mark- and we also saw occasional stutters were in game play, which is a little annoying battery life is decent and managed to last us a little longer than one working day in all usage, which consisted of an active WhatsApp account an hour of navigation using Google Maps running a few of our benchmarks and 40 minutes of Pusey mobile resulted in the phone hitting the low battery mark by 9 p. m. in our HD video loop test, the one managed to go on for 8 hours and 46 minutes.

The dual camera set up at the back consists of a 16 megapixel primary camera, with an F 2.0 aperture and a secondary point. Three megapixel depth sensor, the single LED flash is positioned next to the camera module at the front. The note 8 has an 8 megapixel selfie shoot off the camera app on the cool pad. Node 8 gives you multiple shooting options which include panorama face Beauty blur mono Pro and the default photo & video mode in Pro Mode. You only get the option to set white balance.

ISO and exposure. Swiping right from the default screen gives you access to multiple filters which can be applied before clicking a photo, but enabling HDR is a two-step process when shooting in daylight. We observe that the phone was a little slow to focus and set exposure. The pole also struggled to get the exposure right and required a few attempts at to get it right. Photos click from the cool pad, node 8 row below average shots taped in daylight, missed out on detail.

The phone is also slow to take photos in HDR mode, but delivers a slightly better output in bright surroundings. Macros are decent when the phone manages to get the exposure right, which seemed off most of the time. The blur mode lets you simulate a bouquet and gives you the option to select the level of blur required. We found edge detection to be completely off in low-light. The camera performance takes a dip and has significant shutter lag.

The output has low noise, but the aggressive noise reduction results in visible greens in the output, video recording maxes out at 1080p for the primary camera and 720p for the selfie camera. There is no stabilization available, which leads to shaky footage. The latest offering from cool pad, is positioned in a market that is quite aggressive, but is not geared to face the competition, the MediaTek mt6752, and cannot keep up with what the competition offers in the form of the Redmi 6 and here Susan phone max pro m1. We found the cameras to be below average and the lack of duel. Poetry does not help the notates case for the asking price of 9999 rupees.

You can opt for the Xiaomi, Redmi 6 or put in a little extra and go for the Nokia 5.1 plus, which is the part of the android one program. So you get guaranteed Android updates, and it's a bit more value for money. So that was our review of the cool part. Note 8. What do you guys think about this device?
