Samsung officially launched the Galaxy Note 9 yesterday at a special event in New York, the phone standing as an upgrade to last year's Galaxy Note 8. The South Korean mobile giant called this new device the 'world's most advanced smartphone.' So let's run a quick review to see if this is really true.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 sports a large 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display at 1440 x 2960 pixels resolution, with an aspect ratio of 18.5:9 and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for protection against screen cracks and scratches. For image duties, the handset features a dual 12MP camera setup equipped with LED flash, and a single 8MP front-facing shooter for selfie and video chat.
In terms of performance, the Galaxy Note 9 uses Qualcomm's Snapdragon 845 chipset, coupled with 6GB RAM and multiple inbuilt storage variants of either 64GB, 128GB, or 256GB and external MicroSD card support. The phone features an S-pen that is expected to make writing notes on the device easier, and other outstanding features, which includes the ability to control music and a long-range self-timer, and most amazing is its Bluetooth function which is scarcely seen in a pen accessory.
