There are 4 or so magnets in this case so I'm wondering what effect will they have on the galaxy note 8.0 if any?

Magnets are located at the bottom of the keyboard and those attach to four magnets at bottom of the case. You can remove the keyboard from the case for easy typing. Those 4 magnets do not affect in any way the use of your tablet.

I just read in a review for a similar product, that the magnets are a problem for the Galaxy Note, because they will eventually begin to interfere with the stylus, which also uses magnets. The person had read other articles about this problem, and had personal experience with a Galaxy Note where the stylus quit working, whenever it was used on a part of the screen near the magnets. Sounds like prolonged contact with these magnetic covers could do permanent damage to a tablet with stylus. Too bad because I really like these. Glad I decided to wait before buying one.

I don't have a Note 8 and have no experience using these devices together. So, I can't answer your question one way or the other as the answer would be speculation on my part.

Highly recommend not getting a magnet clasp. It will distort the touch screen and may ruin you external card. This happened to me with a magnetic clasp used with Note II.

No, the magnet will not affect the phone in anyway. It will prevent you from charging wireless if you have a wireless charger like the qi

No, it's a strong magnet it works great. Now if you have a heavy phone it comes with two magnets for a stronger hold.

The Samsung case does NOT have any magnets. It stays shut by a elastic strap on the inside of the cover that stretches over the case to keep it shut. You use the same strap when you flip the cover under the tablet. I like it better than a magnet, I am always a little concerned that a magnet may cause a problem at some point.

The flap that folds over to hold the case closed is magnetic. However, my 9-inch tablet extends out the side a little and the magnet in the flap is unable to reach the other magnet, rendering it useless. If you had an 8-inch tablet, it would probably work.

I have not purchased this particular product and do not know the answer, however, I did buy a different product that looked similar, and found that there were magnets in the top corners of the part that held the tablet in place (not the cover part), and the magnet in the top left corner kept causing my Dell Venue 11 Pro to go to "sleep", basically making the case useless. I have to decide whether to cut the magnet out or return the product. So I'll be interested to see the answer to this question. I think the manufacturer of that product that I bought put the magnet in the wrong place! They should have put the magnet in the cover, not the strap that holds the tablet!

No, not at all. The magnet is in the flap, which is attached to the front cover, and the flap wraps around to the back cover, where the other magnet is. My phone works perfectly with it.

There are 3 magnets on the case. One on the front, one on the back, and one on the flap that keeps it closed

It will not demagnetize the cards... My wife has had this for well over a year and nothing has gone wrong. She even likes to take it out of the case and hang the phone on the fridge and listen to music while she's cooking or doing dishes. It's an awesome product.

No... and don't EVER purchase ANY cover for ANY electronic device that has a magnet closure. Devices with computer chips and memory cards, such as smart phones, notes, pads, etc., can have their components and memory damaged by magnets.

No, there are no magnets on any part of the charger. For example, i have the Nexus 5, which has magnets in the back to let you know when you are on the stock charger properly. This charger does not have that. HOWEVER, the area in which the phone is properly aligned is MUCH bigger than the standard charger. I've had this one for ~2months now and have never placed it on the charging pad such that it didn't charge.

If you're asking if the magnets touch/work together with cover flapped open and bent backwards.....no it doesn't. The flat part of the magnet sticks to side of phone, the back piece of the cover overlaps or blocks that flat magnet from connecting with the part on the cover. Hope that makes sense. It's still nice to have and haven't found your concern to be an issue.

No, I don't believe it does work for the galaxy note 8. The camera button and flash don't line up correctly when cover is on. They do have similar covers made especially for the galaxy note 8 on Amazon.

It comes with 3 magnet plates, you need not buy anything. I am using it with my note3 which is quite heavy but never encountered any issues so far.
