Airplane mode is a handy way to turn off the cellular and data connections on your Note 8 device. As the name suggests, you can toggle this mode when you fly in an airplane, so you need to understand that Airplane mode will turn off connections on your device, including cellular data, Wi-Fi, as well as Bluetooth. That means you will not receive any calls, but you can turn Wi-Fi or Bluetooth back on again and connect to a Wi-Fi network or device while Airplane mode is enabled.
However, Airplane mode isn’t just for when you’re on an airplane, but for all those places poor cell coverage areas and your device is doing its best to keep on searching for a better signal. You know that it cannot go on like that forever and this will affect the already limited battery juice, maybe even sooner than anticipated.
