Samsung launches Enterprise Editions of Galaxy Note 8 and Galaxy S8

The Galaxy Note 8 is one of the most expensive Android smartphones available on the market, just like the Galaxy S8 and S8+ were earlier this year. However, for a solid business, neither of the two flagships would be expensive if they prove to be useful enough.

Well, Samsung is trying to target the business segment with the Enterprise Edition variants of the Galaxy Note 8 and Galaxy S8. Specs-wise, they offer the same performance as the standard models, but the software is a bit different.

First of all, they come with a three-year license for Knox Configure and Enterprise Firmware OTA updates. According to Samsung, both devices will receive monthly security patches for the next three years. Moreover, the South Korean company has decided to extend the warranty for these business devices to a total of three years, instead of just two.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and Galaxy S8 Enterprise Edition are now available for purchase in Germany via Tech Data Mobile. They might go on sale in other parts of Europe, but there's no way to tell for sure at this time.

This sounds like Samsung Knox Configure which can be established for many of Samsungs devices.

When did Samsung phones start coming with a 2 year warranty?

I think the EU makes them have a 2 year warranty. My S8 that I bought from Clove has a 2 warranty. I just have to send it back to Clove since Samsung is a bunch of hard ons about grey market devices.

No, Warranty is optional for company to decide. But there is 2 years Guarantees in EU.http://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/consumers/shopping/guarantees-returns/faq/index_en.htm

actually, most devices only cover warranties from the country of purchase.

I know, just annoyed with how Samsung handlles international unlocked phones. I want an unlocked Exynos with a US CSC instead fiddling with firmware to get most of the features of the unlocked Snapdragon model.
