I had the note 4 but the hand writing recognition seemed poor and I eventually stopped using it.
Yeah that definitely is true. I fat finger everything when I type on a phone keyboard no matter what kind of phone it is.
The note 4 was the last note I had prior to this one. I rarely used the handwriting feature on it but I honestly couldn't tell you why.
My hand writing is atrocious. I mean it's close to doctor bad. Half normal half cursive garbled together. Every once and a while it will get a letter or two wrong but 99% of the time so far it's been able to decipher everything I've put down. Definitely very impressed with that so far.
Battery life has been great. I'm probably near the top in terms of phone usage/screen on time for users and it's still getting me through an entire day. Unplugged at 5am yesterday and it hit 17% at 1030pm. Very heavy internet usage, several GBs of music downloaded, QWHD+ enabled, screen always on enabled. Any other phone I've used would have been dead by 5pm easy. My droid turbo 2 I just switched from? I would have had to plug it in by noon.. I'm also noticing the note 8 gets significantly better service signal than my turbo 2. Some rooms at work where dead zones with the turbo..note 8 has full 4g, albeit a little slow.
