Samsung Galaxy Note9 (N9600 512GB 4G LTE) is the next-generation premium flagship phablet in the Note series by Korean tech giant Samsung. This beast of a device boasts specs far better than all previous flagships and redefines consumer expectations. Boasting a aluminum frame and glass construction, the phone offers glass on the front and back, bend in unison creating a seamless and flush surface all around. The phablet sports a huge 6.4-inch Infinity Display that is the biggest to feature on any Note device till date. It is nearly bezel-less allowing a larger edge-to-edge screen. It employs Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen technology with Full HD 2960 x 1440 screen resolution which can be changed to QuadHD+. Supporting multitouch functionality, the screen packs a massive 516 pixels per inch of the screen allowing for spectacularly clear visuals. Also, it features latest Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection on front and back panel which is capable of deterring bumps and scratches.
The phablet runs on a powerful combination of Octa-core (4x2.8 GHz Kryo 385 Gold & 4x1.7 GHz Kryo 385 Silver) processor and Adreno 630 GPU housed on a Qualcomm SDM845 Snapdragon chipset. This great combination allows for faster and seamless app processing and completely lag-free gaming experience. No matter how heavy the game is, your phone will be able to run it without any hindrance. The device comes preloaded with Android 8.1 (Oreo) with full access to Google Play Store allowing you to download over 3 million different apps and games.
This extremely thin smartphone is IP68 certified and therefore offers waterproofing capability up to 1.5 meters underwater immersion for 30 minutes. Just like previous models, the Note 9 also features a stylus: the all new and improved S Pen. This S Pen comes with number of creative features to express yourself such as Live Message which lets you draw emojis as well as animated GIFs, Samsung Notes for quick bullet notes and drawing up designs with a massive selection of brushes and pens, Screen Off Memo which lets you take quick notes by just taking out the S Pen and writing on screen without even unlocking the phone. The possibilities with the new S Pen are virtually limitless. Other S Pen features include Magnify, Glance, Bixby Vision, Translate, Screen Write and Screen Select.
The camera on this phone is second to none in terms of performance and quality. It features a 12MP dual camera with Optical Image Stabilization, face detection, Auto HDR, 2160p at 60fps video recording and 2x optical zoom. Furthermore, an 8MP selfie camera is also provided for amazing selfies and video calls/recordings. Images are captured with the Dual Pixel Sensor which works with a brighter F/1.7 lens and larger 1.55µm pixels to record images the way your own eyes do.
