Is this an outlier? Maybe the particular copy that GSMArena received has some hardware or software defect? ISO250 should not produce such soft photos.

Oh my gosh, it is over 200 grams in weight. The world is coming to an END.
This is hilarious. If you can't handle more than a 200 gram phone, maybe you need to quit typing so much and start actually working at something, like picking up a book to start with, then work up from there.

To GSM AREM team.
How it possible that on Photo compare tool S9+ is better image quality. On good and low light. Is this is mistakes of your settings during the test or this is fact?
Why you do not have Selfie camera comparing in Photo tool? For me will me fine to see difference in this camera also... Thanks!

Snapdragon models are better for gaming, while Exynos is better for battery life and standby time. The latter is more important for me.

LilSweetLin, 22 Aug 2018I don't do anything graphics-intensive, so the GPU isn't a big deal to me.The Exynos models also tend to be better optimised for Samsung's firmware. Their Snapdragon firmware appears to be a port of the Exynos firmware.

I had the LG V30 for about a month before I sold it because of crap reception and radios. I LOVED the quad DAC and the battery life on it, though. I hated giving up the quad DAC. Is headphone audio on the Note 9 comparable to the V30 when using high impedance headphones?

Schumi, 21 Aug 2018People please tell me, in Friday 24.08 i should choose between Huawei P20 Pro or Samsung Note ... moreAperture beats pixel count for night photos. Increasing the pixel count helps little if they don't get light. Two times nothing is still nothing. So, I'd confidently say the Note 9 will beat the Huawei handily for low light imaging.

You know it's a beast when one of the cons is "Where them Alcantara cases this year, Samsung?!"
Really? Why would that even count as a con on a phone review? :)

Droidtard, 21 Aug 2018They're using the same camera since Note 8. That's why.What are you smoking? Same sensors? Sure, MAYBE because of the resolution, but the blades are different and rotary, it's sharper, and the Telephoto is longer lenses than N8 (and I used N8)

Great review as usual, although I'm not switching to a Note 9, GSM arena is the go to choice for unbiased and detailed reviews.
But what about the last con, is it for real??? Come on!
Shanti Dope, 21 Aug 2018You mean that the Note 9 has 4000mAh battery but delivers similar battery life to phones commo... moreNo offense, but you really sound like a someone who can't accept facts. Note 9's display is the best mobile display to date. Not only Display mate says so, lots of reviews agree with it. You need numbers? Just look at the charts regarding color temperature, min and max brightness, reflectivity, and delta RGB values. These are top notch across the board. You can't just disregard such information.
That battery powers a bigger display than the competition and it's still better than most. The P20 Pro can't compete although it has same battery size, a smaller display and less powerful chipset. You want more proof? Check youtube.
RAM, Storage and cameras are top quality. Don't bring up products Sony has not released, we all know they're not the best while implementing their HW to their own SW, such a shame. They'd rather remove features like the headphone jack.
What about the rest of the features, there is no single phone with more features than the Note 9. Wireless charging, headphone jack, no notch, micro sd, stereo speakers, 128GB base storage, IP68, DeX without dock....

Anonymous, 21 Aug 2018In the bezeless era Samsung makes the bezels thicker over its own last gen.
Shame on you Sa... moreHave you even looked at the dimensions?
Note 9: 161.9 x 76.4 x 8.8 mm (6.37 x 3.01 x 0.35 in)
Pixel XL: 154.7 x 75.7 x 8.5 mm (6.09 x 2.98 x 0.33 in)
It's marginally bigger then a 2 year phone with a screen that's nearly a full inch smaller. It is in no way shape or form unpocketable unless big phones THAT EVERYONE MAKES are already too big for you.
