I'm still sitting on my note 3 waiting to see if after 6 years of service it's finally time to get a new phone and when the 10 comes out I think I'm picking one of these up
People are actually shitting on Samsung now because they're keeping the headphone jack. They're just trying to make the transition easier on some people. If Apple wants to try so hard to remove it, I think they should've: A. kept the headphone jack and include wireless headphones in the box, then remove the headphone jack the following year. Or... B. Do what they did (removed the headphone jack) and included wireless headphones or some type of adapter in the box.
They should lose the whole headphone jack. after some time it gets dust inside it cracks the sound when moving it around. i really dont understand why you still want a dust collecting hole in your Phone. it can be nice but when there wouldnt be any 3,5mm holes anymore we all would buy usb-c port headphones and that would become the standard. Move on people! stop living in the past.

I've had this phone for almost 2 years now and damn it's still powerful as hell, and I think by far the most perfect design for Samsung Note series (compared to Note 10 and Note 20) is Note 9! Also I have never put casing on my phone and it often flew across my bedroom to the ground, and not even a single scratch! Yeah I just love my phone and I wanted to share it
Battery is insane on this phone, I can go all day without charging and still wake up with some battery left. This phone is the best phone I've ever had. By a long shot. And I've had my share of iPhones as well. iPhone is just generic. Ppl buy them to copy one another. It's just a trendy brand is all it is. And apple gets some of their "new" features from Samsung that Samsung was doing for years lol.

@@Night_Rider83 They would just reply with "FaNdRoId" or "YoU'rE jEaLoUs" I've been there, I was convinced by them once that iPhones were better cause I was being made fun of for having a Galaxy S6 edge+(I'm in 8th grade, this was 6th grade) and in 7th grade I sucked it up and got an iPhone XR for christmas. I proceeded to get made fun of for "trying to be cool" Not only that, the whole experience with an iPhone was bad anyway. So we can learn iPhone fanboys will bully you for not having an iPhone, and will bully you for trying to be cool after you get one Kinda wack Edit: I got an S9+ in March
If you remove the extra screen from sides of iPhone X it would have same aspect ratio as this one! It’s not X has notch but X has an extra display in it! Know the difference
Korey Deese the point would be you could use it one-handed when you want to and still have that great big screen when you want to go into landscape mode to watch videos and movies, or view your pictures. Not to mention gaming in full screen mode.
I have just got the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and I love it! its a BIG change from the Samsung Galaxy s6 I had.. Its so bright, and SOOOOO fast and more...

@@TripleAceAAA I think it's fine. I consider myself to have baby hands and I don't have much of an issue handling mine. Edit: I literally responded to this message with the same message just now and I feel stupid for forgetting that I commented here.
Samsung is getting better and better with the note series, one day the note series would change and flip the whole phone market (already did) upside down. The note 9 has a lot of good features and some flaws but these flaws wouldn’t affect the regular crowd
The Note series already flipped the smartphone game a bit by proving there's a market for larger than usual smartphones equipped with a stylus. Apple lauded the fact that the Note phones had a massive screen until they switched sides and made their own phones bigger too a la iPhone 6 going forward. At this point, the only thing I can see changing the game are foldable devices, which is what Samsung is already rumored to be getting into next year
For me, the Notes series isn't getting better and better... the best Galaxy Note is still the Note4... everything after the Note4 basically was a S+ with a S Pen and some minor improvements...
so a 6.4 inch screen, huge battery, a lot better cameras, water resistance, better s-pen, wireless charging, huge battery, dual speakers, usb type c, and most importantly, no samsung lag is minor to you? sheesh I wonder what you consider major
@@stuff6181 not alot better camera, the cameras from the note 9 and s9+ are tve exact same except the note only has this AI thing, everything else is true
Your review was as brilliant and as ballanced and high priced and as featurefull as note 9 itself. Brilliant review, you are a true gem MKBHD, hats off.
I used my Galaxy Note 9 from December 2020 up until December 2023,which is when I upgraded to the 15 Pro Max. Note 9 was such a great phone for its time!
Watching this on my brand new Note 9! Believe me when I say that Marcus checks every box and this is an amazing phone / review! And saying the word amazing undercuts it, this is the best phone ever released to date.
Samsung:we're gonna make a phone that has features no other phone does Apple:Samsung wants to beat us,lets make the iphone x a little bigger Then the iphone X R was born
Casey Lee im not saying i prefer iphone..what im saying is that samsung is always adding new features on their phones and apple thinks that by just making the iPhone bigger its gonna be better then Samsung...i hate iPhone tbh
Mate Samsung is where it's at lol! They're the galaxy! Ever wondered why there's a bite out of the apple logo? Hmmm.. I'm still rocking a note 3. But I'm upgrading soon!
No, not essentially as a HDD and definitely not an SSD because Micro SD technology and durability is not there yet. There are going to be huge speed and power differences b/w the two but in terms of pure storage capacity, yes.
remember at the official launch, that cringey bloke demonstrating bixby had his bixby take 15 seconds to respond, and at the end he waits for people to clap, no one claps so he shamelessly says "You can clap now". wtfff
This is probably the last true Note. From the next tray Samsung will sell 3 versions of S phones. Normal "small" S, bigger S Plus versions and something like S Note. Because since the note 7 every note is just slightly updated S Plus(Edge before) of the same year + the pen. So why concept and fabric 2 phones that are basically the same. They will just put a S pen into galaxy S10 Plus and call it a day.
5:27 The cooling system transfers heat from the components to chassis of the phone. So technically warm phone means it has a decent cooling system or it's really hot inside.
@@TheReesey277 I agreed but if we think as a whole Samsung got plenty of mobile phones model maybe that is why they are behind the schedule, but my point is why they are not concerned about their flagship model and it's gave a bad reputation about theirs service
if you buy this, you honestly should be good for some years. So many people get excited over a new phone and suddenly think it's not good anymore because they seen something newer. The Note 9 has damn near everything you could want and should make anyone happy well down the line
But it won't make anyone happy. Once the Note 10 is released, "hurr durr gotta go to duh stor guize look! note 10! whoa!! i mean iz literally teh saem as note 9 but this says TEN!!!! WHOA! gotta spend $1100 brb"
I have iPhone for years. the 4S was probably one of the greatest phones ever. but Apple dropped the ball after 6. Decided to move to Samsung Note. granted i wanted to return it the first few days because the transition was very hard, but now i do not want any else (L) especially after i made a cinematic video (available on my channel) with the Camera of the Note. the dynamic range, the contrast, and sharpness are just pure madness!
my iphone 6s suffered the black screen of death and it cant be fixed I had the phone less than one year which is why im here looking at reviews for the note 9, I have to buy a new phone!
Never seen one of your video's but I got my self a Note 9 and yours pop out. Comment none related to the Note I have to give you props for video's!! The way you display the phone on those background of the laptop, notebooks etc. and those coffee beens near the coffee cup my man you nailed it!!! Great clean scenes!! You probably won't even read this comment but just wanted to cheer you up and say what a great job your doing on your video scenes!! Best wishes for your channel!!
Great review Marques. I'm still really enjoying my Note 8, which I bought with confidence after it won your phone of the year award! One point regarding the size of the phone. It's definitely large, but I find that one handing it is quite convenient, thanks to the robust and easily activated one-handed mode. Other than this one qualification, I couldn't agree more with your review, as big fan of the Note series. Keep up the great work!
Yes! Very little gets mentioned about the one hand mode that is actually awesome. Can shift to either side, resize bigger or smaller, and all functions and features work the same. You can also quickly go back full by just touching anywhere else on the screen, as well as how you want to deploy one handed mode. I prefer the quick double tap. Thanks for mentioning this. I feel this gets looked over greatly for whatever reason..🤔
@@JayakrishnanH007 I keep hearing that. I guess I can see that, but from what I have seen on mine for 1 year now it would have to be pretty heavy. I guess maybe also how each user takes advantage of using the individual app power saving features as well as optimizing any background running task and tweaks. I would consider my self a moderate to at times "heavy user" and still easily get a full day either way. Could you please tell me what you think a heavy user would be? I appreciate your opinion.Thanks.😀
I got my note 9 and honestly I was thinking I shouldn't have since I already have the note 8. But when I took it out and compared RUclips video I seen the note 9's screen was brighter especially the whites. That Dolby atmos, and stereo speakers are great. But when I got to the camera is when I knew that I made a good choice, the pics had so much more clarity than my note 8, the low light pics had much less noise and more detail. I even pulled out my 8 plus and the 9 smashed it also, I was kinda stunned by the difference in pics. Now I'm just waiting on these third party devs to start getting funky with this s-pen and it's gonna be hard for these other phones to keep up.
Just wish Samsung would make a visual core like Google so we can all get quality photos WITHIN third party apps like Snapchat, but for now only Google and Apple care about this extra level of camera support and it bugs me so much.
I had to choose between iPhone XS Max and Samsung Galaxy Note 9. My Note 9 is arriving tomorrow and I think I made the right choice. I really want to try iPhone though and I hope that Apple drop the prices after couple of years.
Literally every major downside has been covered by Samsung and that's the reason I do love about this company and its products. Combining old school headphone jack with tons of features makes everyone wanting this phone. I am quite sure the software side is the next breakthrough Samsung will capture.
Watching this on my Note 9, 2 years later. An absolute unit of a phone. Still works smoothly, fast, can handle nearly anything you throw at it, etc. Worth getting!
Man this was the first phone to really make me go, "holy crap, it's perfect." I remeber that exact feeling I got when fist watching this. No phone has gotten that same feeling for me since. Its been exactly 2 years since this review came out for me.

I've had this phone for almost 2 years now and damn it's still powerful as hell, and I think by far the most perfect design for Samsung Note series (compared to Note 10 and Note 20) is Note 9! Also I have never put casing on my phone and it often flew across my bedroom to the ground, and not even a single scratch! Yeah I just love my phone and I wanted to share it
It flew across the bedroom many times? Why? Were you throwing it at your boyfriend? :)
I still have mine Nov 2022😀
If apple make a phone like note 9 they will cost it more than 2000$ with extra chrges for the pen

Battery is insane on this phone, I can go all day without charging and still wake up with some battery left. This phone is the best phone I've ever had. By a long shot. And I've had my share of iPhones as well. iPhone is just generic. Ppl buy them to copy one another. It's just a trendy brand is all it is. And apple gets some of their "new" features from Samsung that Samsung was doing for years lol. Apple users talk about the new amazing facial recognition, my old metro pcs phone I had 8 years ago had facial recognition 😂 step up your game apple
Well said
Totally agree 😃😃😃
This is the truest comment I've ever read. Every Apple baised person should read this.
@@Night_Rider83 They would just reply with "FaNdRoId" or "YoU'rE jEaLoUs"
I've been there, I was convinced by them once that iPhones were better cause I was being made fun of for having a Galaxy S6 edge+(I'm in 8th grade, this was 6th grade) and in 7th grade I sucked it up and got an iPhone XR for christmas. I proceeded to get made fun of for "trying to be cool"
Not only that, the whole experience with an iPhone was bad anyway. So we can learn iPhone fanboys will bully you for not having an iPhone, and will bully you for trying to be cool after you get one
Kinda wack
Edit: I got an S9+ in March
Your usage of the phone is small
*It has no notch*
Shut the fuck up already
Notch sucks
If you remove the extra screen from sides of iPhone X it would have same aspect ratio as this one! It’s not X has notch but X has an extra display in it! Know the difference
Concerning the: "Too big of a screen, for one hand." Isn't there a function where you can shrink the display, using a gesture, to make it one handed?
Yes, is it.
Yup
Then what would be the point? Just get a S9 then...
Korey Deese the point would be you could use it one-handed when you want to and still have that great big screen when you want to go into landscape mode to watch videos and movies, or view your pictures. Not to mention gaming in full screen mode.
Cameron DeHaan He said that because he isn’t Used to using such big Phones and he is used to using phones with one which he can’t with the note 9.
If Apple made a phone like the note 9. They would sell the s pen separately 😂

Have been following you for about a year now🖒
Samsung is getting better and better with the note series, one day the note series would change and flip the whole phone market (already did) upside down. The note 9 has a lot of good features and some flaws but these flaws wouldn’t affect the regular crowd
The Note series already flipped the smartphone game a bit by proving there's a market for larger than usual smartphones equipped with a stylus. Apple lauded the fact that the Note phones had a massive screen until they switched sides and made their own phones bigger too a la iPhone 6 going forward.
At this point, the only thing I can see changing the game are foldable devices, which is what Samsung is already rumored to be getting into next year
For me, the Notes series isn't getting better and better... the best Galaxy Note is still the Note4... everything after the Note4 basically was a S+ with a S Pen and some minor improvements...
so a 6.4 inch screen, huge battery, a lot better cameras, water resistance, better s-pen, wireless charging, huge battery, dual speakers, usb type c, and most importantly, no samsung lag is minor to you? sheesh I wonder what you consider major
@@stuff6181 not alot better camera, the cameras from the note 9 and s9+ are tve exact same except the note only has this AI thing, everything else is true

can you use it as a hard drive/ SSD, like it would be so cool to have a 1tb drive inside your phone right?
Yes. It's Android phone after all.
You can use a 512 GB SD card and buy the 512 GB variant of the phone
No, not essentially as a HDD and definitely not an SSD because Micro SD technology and durability is not there yet. There are going to be huge speed and power differences b/w the two but in terms of pure storage capacity, yes.

I love my Note8 too and it's still a beast, but I'm getting the Note9 on Friday :D I just can't resist the battery, stereo, storage and bt s pen
you might not have a next one if rumors are true..
This is probably the last true Note. From the next tray Samsung will sell 3 versions of S phones. Normal "small" S, bigger S Plus versions and something like S Note. Because since the note 7 every note is just slightly updated S Plus(Edge before) of the same year + the pen.
So why concept and fabric 2 phones that are basically the same. They will just put a S pen into galaxy S10 Plus and call it a day.

Great review Marques. I'm still really enjoying my Note 8, which I bought with confidence after it won your phone of the year award!
One point regarding the size of the phone. It's definitely large, but I find that one handing it is quite convenient, thanks to the robust and easily activated one-handed mode. Other than this one qualification, I couldn't agree more with your review, as big fan of the Note series. Keep up the great work!
Yes! Very little gets mentioned about the one hand mode that is actually awesome. Can shift to either side, resize bigger or smaller, and all functions and features work the same. You can also quickly go back full by just touching anywhere else on the screen, as well as how you want to deploy one handed mode. I prefer the quick double tap. Thanks for mentioning this. I feel this gets looked over greatly for whatever reason..🤔
I was one of those who had to miss out on the note seven so cannot wait to upgrade. I have missed my s pen and my big screen.
nhizzlefoshizzle but battery of Note8 is not enough for heavy users
@@JayakrishnanH007 as a Note 8 owner, I can concur with this. I am truly a heavy user
@@JayakrishnanH007 I keep hearing that. I guess I can see that, but from what I have seen on mine for 1 year now it would have to be pretty heavy. I guess maybe also how each user takes advantage of using the individual app power saving features as well as optimizing any background running task and tweaks. I would consider my self a moderate to at times "heavy user" and still easily get a full day either way. Could you please tell me what you think a heavy user would be?

I got my note 9 and honestly I was thinking I shouldn't have since I already have the note 8. But when I took it out and compared RUclips video I seen the note 9's screen was brighter especially the whites. That Dolby atmos, and stereo speakers are great. But when I got to the camera is when I knew that I made a good choice, the pics had so much more clarity than my note 8, the low light pics had much less noise and more detail. I even pulled out my 8 plus and the 9 smashed it also, I was kinda stunned by the difference in pics. Now I'm just waiting on these third party devs to start getting funky with this s-pen and it's gonna be hard for these other phones to keep up.
Just wish Samsung would make a visual core like Google so we can all get quality photos WITHIN third party apps like Snapchat, but for now only Google and Apple care about this extra level of camera support and it bugs me so much.
My note 9 came yesterday 512gb, and it is incredible. Apple is a decade behind them.
