Samsung launched the Galaxy S8 about 7 months ago while the Note 8 is on the market not for so long. As Samsung likes to spice up the things over stock Android by using their own UI which they currently like to call Samsung Experience UI. As the Experience UI is a bit heavy and the smartphones come with a bunch of bloatware, these devices tend to get a bit slow over time. So here are few simple steps that will make your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy Note 8 faster than before.
Samsung likes to optimize its devices in such a way that the smartphone manages between delivering a decent amount of battery life and a decent performance. Most people forget to change the default settings and use the device as it was delivered out of the box. The company offers few tweaks on the Settings page which can boost up the performance of your device maxing up your smartphone's CPU but decreasing the battery backup. To turn on the performance mode, head over to Settings>Device Maintenance and select Performance Mode.
It is highly recommended to keep your Android or iOS smartphone always up to date. These updates bring optimisations, improvements and much more. If you receive any OTA (Over-the-Air) software update or any app updates on the Google Play store, just make sure your install every update.
Keep your Galaxy Note 8 or Galaxy S8 free of junk by deleting unnecessary data and applications. To uninstall unnecessary applications, head over to Settings>Apps. Here you will find a list of applications out of which you can go and uninstall the ones you do not need. Also, you can consider installing Lite applications like, Facebook Lite, Skype Lite and more which are optimized to take up less space and use less CPU which will ultimately give you better performance.
With the new Samsung devices, the company lets its users choose one of the three resolutions which let people decide battery life or quality. Higher the resolution, more the GPU would be used which will cause a mild decrease in performance as well as battery life. We recommend you to keep the resolution at FHD+ as that can offer the perfect balance.

If the above steps did not help you enough to bring up the speed, these tweaks might help.
These steps will enable Developer Options which will be available on the bottom of the Settings page. Go to Developer Options and scroll over to Window animation scale. Now change all the Animation scales to 0.5x from 1x. This will not speed up your phone's performance, however, it will make your smartphone feel a lot faster as the animations will run quicker.
