Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Review

Bonkers storage, monster battery, new tricks. But is it ready for a 5G world?

Headphone jack is now a feature, nice.There is air to breath...

Why does everyone question the price of the Note 9 when the iPhone is just as expensive with far fewer features? Neither phone is worth the price, but the iPhone is a laugh in comparison. Yet people line up to buy it.

Getting my note 9 during launch week I'am finally happy to say goodbye to my Samsung note 4 after four years of using it

[kyronmckay]

So I made sure I checked out the iPhone x review for the early stages from Cnet and not once did you mention or even hint at the question of if the iPhone x is worth the price tag. you never mentioned other phones or compaired it to other iPhones, so i ask, why did you review the note 9 in this mannor? I just want a level playing field, thats all! Even when you do give the note 9 its props, you mention where you can get that feature better or you sell the idea as "its good, but not that good" eg the battery life, saying it's good that it last's for a day but then shitting on the samsung 8 lol. come on guys!! lol

The review is ok. But its seems like she really is trying to hate the Note 9 by nitpicking on the small stuff. If it is an iphone of course even with the biggest flaw she would probably ignore it says that its definitely worth the $1000. The note 9 is a great phone. People says that she is a bit salty at Samsung for displaying her review of the first note at the even (I've watched the video too). So maybe she still have a little grudge and decide to let it out on the review of the note 9.
Great review but maybe next time dont let it get too personal. 👍

You checked all the wrong boxes with your review
Bias - checked
Senseless points - checked
Senseless comparisons - checked
Hate - triple checked

Samsung owned her by showing a video of her saying big phones won't take off, she gives female reviewers a bad name by not knowing her craft, not all females should be tech reviewers she's clearly one of them

[saitama]

didnt even talked about the display...she knows it blows the iphone out of the competition

[TheDragonaf]

So let me get this strait. Samsung can fit a pen in its phone, but apple can't fit a headphone jack...? So long as this one doesn't explode let be a lesson to apple that android is just so much better in every single way haha.

[mikesims]

Did she start the video off by questioning the price of the phone? Do she really think that Samsung priced it at 1, 000 to 1 up Apple iPhone X from last year?. I dont get how people dont question the iPhone outrageous prices when they first launch. I bet if the new iPhone is 1, 400 people like her wouldn't even think twice about paying that money. AND WE ALL KNOW APPLE IS GOING TO COME OUT WITH BASICALLY THE SAME PHONE WITH SAME SPECS JUST ON A BIGGER SCREEN? While Samsung consistently adds new features and technology. Let's see which company get the in screen display fingerprint sensor first.😁

Biased as Hell review. Jesus lady go work for Apple. Well moving on from Cnet reviews. I like fair reviews. I don't want Android or Apple biased reviews. I wouldn't want a Android fanboy reviewing latest iphone.

[GermanMink]

I keep seeing the argument that you should hold off on getting this as if some new device is going to come out in the next year and a half that is going to change the whole phone game. Isn't that always the case with tech? And why weren't people saying this when the iphone X came out and was similarly priced? What a weird argument to make.

[LFC_Fan]

And this is why I don't watch CNet anymore... I only watched this review cause it's among the first ones released

[dannykash]

You nailed it by saying "the Note 9 is an investment phone something you want to hold on for a few years". I think the same should've been said of the $1k iPhone X. Also most people won't care about the 5G speeds. Considering the 5G speed plans will be priced accordingly at least for a year until the dust settles. Priced accordingly means not cheap Can't wait for the beast to arrive sooner!

[nicktweel]

Worst review yet. You can find negatives in anything and this girl definitely does. It's so absurd and obvious that its turning me off of CNET !

[Cmoney]

Whats with the low key shade, it's obvious this woman is a iPhone fan. She disses the pen, saying most will forget about it, even though most that buy this phone buy it for the sPen. There is no better way to get perfect screen grabs instantly, write notes, and now use it as a remote for pictures, and whatever ever else gets added in the future. And again dissing the memory, by saying get another phone with less internal, but with a card slot. Even thought external memory is slower, and 90% of phones don't give you the ability to add memory. And legitimate 5G is probably 2 to 3 years away anyway to be worth using.

2:18 'a cheaper 64gb phone w a micro sd slot'
THERES ALMOST NO PHONES WITH MICRO SD NOW

[YakAttack]

These sticking points still make the note 9 better than Apple. Jesus.... Apple doesn't have finger print sensor, camera is barely comparable (the scene optimizer works within a half second), and is more expensive when you match it with the 128gb storage.

[MightyMike]

cant wait to get mine next week, its like xmas is around the corner haha...this was the Note I have been waiting for since the note 5

[albertzeliang]

1000$??? 1000 times better than iPhones
