I have a chance to handle my colleague's Note 8. Compared to my Note 3, it's narrower and longer. I want to know when playing games that are in portrait mode, will it have black bars on top and below? Currently playing FFBE on my Note 3.

There is a setting you can tweak to enable Full Screen for apps.

Settings -> Display -> Full screen apps

Alternatively, when playing games, pull out the Game Launcher and there is an option for you to toggle Full Screen on or off. Take note toggling this will cause the game to restart and you will get full screen game.

Do note that this also depends on the ratio aspect of the game. You may or may not get the black bars when if full screen.

If people want the officual samsung cases and charger, they can just go directly and buy from mobile shops. The pice from samsung are msrp but they actually cost less in shops. So why would they buy at 60?
Maybe 30 can

Haha thanks. You do have a point. It's worth different value for different ppl. Anyway it's sold to a gentleman here. Case closed.

There should be black bars but you can't really notice it. There is a reason why they made the front screen black no matter which Note 8 colour variation you buy.
Plus with the Amoled display, when the sides are black, there are literally turned off ba. So you cannot even see nor will you pay attention to the black sides (bars + phone top & bottom)
