Samsung: Galaxy note 9 comes with a custom fortnite skin!
Linus: *gets pubg as sponsor*
boooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
PUBG is salty as fuck. They also sponsored Austin Evans' review of the Note 9. It's so obvious PUBG is doing this so people don't talk about Fortnite.
@@mjc0961 so u are recently learning how marketing works
absolute *M A D L A D*
In Poland and many other countries epic games was paying RUclipsrs to play fortnite so don't say that "pubg is salty"
Review: Almost perfect
*2 Years later: Still using it as his daily driver*
Yeah
Cuz it has no compromises and gives up no features unlike the latest note
So am i
I was as well until a week ago when I got the iphone 12 pro max. kinda done with samsung at this point
In the next version note 10 you will find out that they removed
1-the iris scanner
2- the heart rate monitor
3-the head phone jack
and sadly a lot of qualities
I am korean... samsung is from korea.... when i turn on my s9... the phone told me ‘open ur eyes wider’....... most offensive thing i ever heard from a phone
I never thought that i could get so many likes and comments with this.... But i have ANIME PROFILE PICTURE!!!! You guys should ignore them all you know....
lol that's terrible dude xD
That's kinda sad, I expected DJ Koh got the same treatment
maybe your eyes are *too* wide... even for an asian... ever thought of that?
Lol
Wow
*iPhone User:* That's not possible!
*Samsung:* You have no idea what's possible
"Where's the notch?"
"Only luddites still use a headphone jack!"
Things iBots have actually said.
'The IPhones a whole 3mm smaller! that's why they couldn't a headphone jack, spen or micro sd capabilities, gosh, you can do all that with 3 mm you know."
Android*
lol i still remember how a bunch of my friends who use iphones were bragging about things android users already had for a couple years already. I'm STILL waiting for the day they come to me bragging about being able to split screens and resize window apps and stuff 🤣🤣🤣
Bought my first android after owning almost every iPhone and took the punt on a note 9. It's taking some getting used to but overall the experience is pretty good and it's nice to see almost every review telling me it's as good as an android phone gets. Btw the lack of headphone port was my main reason for leaving as I have £1000s of headphones and earbuds and I don't want to carry around additional dongles just because apple say so. Considering how many people use apple products for audio I'm sure I'm not alone. Great review as always 👍
That's why I bought HTC 10, great audio converter but, I want a new in ear headphone. RHA T20 is the number one on my list. Unless you have a better idea.
PPPantsUK why not just use Bluetooth headphones? Is that really that difficult?
@@GamingWO- not everyone wants to charge their headphones.
Timeslip Just have the charger next to your phone, plug it in when you plug your phone in
@@timeslip1247 plus audio quality is not even comparable
Switched to Note 9 (128GB) from S7 Edge and I'm in love. Last Note i had was the 4th one and for two years I always missed my s-pen. This phone is actually as good as everyone says..
Currently using the s7 edge and really considering upgrading, go into as much or as little detail as you want, how much of a difference is it? Never had a note before, how useful is the s pen? Thanks in advance.
@@tannerboy1991 well the main two things are the screen and the battery. S7 is known to have the most fragile screen and cracking it is way easier than any other phone like s8/9 or note8/9. After a month, the battery still holds up as it did when I unboxed it (haven't had the same results with my S7). If ure considering an upgrade, look into s9+ o wait for *S10*. I love the spen as a gimmic more, for me it's useful only when taking sceenshots. The main Note's thing is the screen. It's wider
@@DeividasGedgaudas ok thanks
Waiting on Best Buy's Black Friday sales to start in 2.5 weeks so I can buy the black variant.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 was a masterpiece. Even after all these years it still looks stunning.
3 years later and Linus still daily drives the Note 9. Me too ;) last perfect and feature rich phone to exist. No compromises
I got it recently love it too. I hate the new notch and hole punch phones
where does he say this
@@jasonscott6128 I think he said it in a short circuit video
pen, headphone jack, flagship specs, nice screen, its just amazing. now the ZFold3 took its place on Linus's pocket tho
I ordered one my s22 ultra was crap plus I upgrade in April and I used to love my note 9
Why i am watching this i am poor
Just save a little here and there and next year you can pick up the new Samsung phone
Maybe because your channel name has "tech" in it ?
There's so sad. You're too poor for punctuation. I hope you find some good fortune and can afford this phone soon.
Same
Now a days there is still a lot of phone with latest version of technology at less than $500 or $600 depends on your budget !
When you go Galaxy NOTE you never go back , I started on the Note 3 , and trust me guys .it's simply impossible to switch. A real powerhouse do-everything-device .
i feel you dude, i make very bad decision when i purchase note 3, to this day still can't find replacement from note line up, my advise is stay away from galaxy note series, once you in it's almost impossible to jump out
Yeah I'm still love my Galaxy Note 4
I started on Note 2, then Note 3, then the Note 5, then now the Note 9. I can't buy any other phone without a pen. What make me stick to the Note is the pen!
Note 1 was my first phone.
Loved it.
3.5 years and it died while camping in a puddle in the tent. Rip.
I had S2,4 Honor 5x even tried windows phone (actually liked it) and 2 china cheap crap phones.
Now I came back to the Note 8.
And just hasslefree 95% of the time.
I am thrilled to see what will be out when my dataplan brings me the phone next year.
But this one will not be thrown away.
I agree. Note is a great allround well made phone.
The pen is a gimic i realy missed on other phones.
I often use it for screenshot memos and to let bixby translate or extract text.
Favorite phone so far.
S9+ is also hard to resist.. if you don't use the S pen that's where to go.
pretty sad that that a headphone jack is a "feature" now, thanks apple
Not just apple. Several phones are getiing rid of it
HugoatTGI he means that apple set that trend. really not their fault as it was just the sheep android oems that followed forth
Apple wasn't the first one to do it.
He said apple set the trend, not apple was the first to remove the headphone jack. I love reading
Brandon “boo who” is that a question? You got me confused bro who are you booing ?
Next years Apple release
"Today Apple reinvents the pen. Imagine having an inkless pen and unlimited paper in your pocket never before seen in the mobile industry- the new iPhone 24XLRT"*
* $2470 pen is connected via dongle sold separate unless upgraded to Bluetooth for $80. Charger not included. Pen and iPhone are incompatible unless you purchase an upgraded port. If damaged we will repair phone screen for $1000 and pen for $800. If repaired outside of Apple we will lock your device and make it unusable during the next update. Pen will be slowed down at each update until its useless and you buy another one in 1 year.
PURE INNOVATION. APPLE DOES IT AGAIN. PRAISE THEM.
OMFG where can I preorder...is there a snowflake looking store with 20 hipsters working at that I can stand outside of for days awaiting the release too?
LMAO apple be like
damn i will definetly buy this i mean a iphone that has A STYLUS i mean why did steve jobs hate it
Don't leave out a processor so powerful, that it's super not powerful display cannot hope to keep up with dpi or resolution. Leading Apple to again scream that its processor is more powerful, because you know, games are all they're about.
Note 9 2019: almost perfect

Except the price...
@@RamiKattan nope, even in that regard it has no compromises, requiring you to cash out to the max.

Watching this from my Note 9. Possibly one of the best electronics I've ever owned, and I hope it lasts me a long time.
I have the Note 9. I didn't think that I would use the stylus much... I was wrong. I use it a lot. I've also used to bluetooth before for the camera, when I went to Disneyland. I took some selfies with my friends, and it would have been hard to reach the button to take the photo... so I used the S Pen! Another thing is that you can take showers while listening to music, and use the S Pen to control it. I myself haven't done it, but have seen a comment on another video talking about this.
Jetgirl :D Same. Used it a lot on my vacation too.

Snarky Nah, because manufacturers are doing things right. Remember, his formula is to list things that pissed him off. Very few things pissed him off here. That means Samsung did a good job. And if that's "boring the hell out of us"? I'll gladly take boring the hell out of me than being enraged at a stupid notch, lack of a headphone jack, no micro SD card slot, and all the other shitty things that all the other phone manufacturers are doing.

Hey, this isn't bookworm adventures deluxe.
You can just tell that Samsung has a passion for their devices, listening to their consumer and always pushing innovation to give them the very best device each year.... and then there’s Apple yea not much needs to be said there. Just look at the differences in the values of each company.
How right you are I really feel sorry for the iPhone sheep and the Apple fanboys they don't realize that Apple doesn't really give a damn about them they keep taking away specs lying about their products and raising prices and people still buy their phones and they know it that's what they do it it's sad really they probably stopped caring about the consumer around the time Steve Jobs passed away they care about maximizing profits not about the customer
davis icon all to right brother, removing the headphone jack to sell more wireless headphones and beats(a quickly dying Apple brand that was resurgence by the headphone delete) and on top of have the nerve the audacity the gall to call it innovation and on top of that Bravery! I mean come on man Bravery you got to be shitting me.
davis icon Tbh the only sheep I notice are the people circlejerking it by bashing Apple
Just buy whatever phone you like and shut up
pity they're so ugly
the fact that he still uses it as his daily driver just goes to show how much he likes this phone lol, and honestly I don't blame him. Up until October, I too used it as my daily driver, and it was great.
The staying power of the Note 9, its still Linus' daily driver...
It's sad that headphone jacks are a luxury thing now
who ... i mean wo uses headphones ??>??everyone drives and bmw or above!!!
Bluetooth buds are the thing now but people still prefer headphone jacks because it's a cheaper alternative and it feels like you can connect everything to it.
It’s an outdated technology
Screw charge anxiety on wireless headphones. I like my wired things.
Wired earphones earphones sounds better than wireless ones. My wireless earphone sounds like crap on pubg mobile
The zero compromise phone tag is the best tag for a phone or a laptop, laptops are way far in achieving that cause a big flaw in each one but Samsung on smartphone is amazing, at a time when almost all phones do have a wildly irritating think about it
Yeah i hope they take their laptops game seriously as well. Would make a great competitor to Apple's MacBooks.

Current Note 5 user here, yeah the Note 9 is SERIOUSLY outstanding. I'm pretty patient so I'll be waiting to see the field from Google, OnePlus, and Apple, but damn the Note 9 seems like it will be remembered as the pinnacle of slab phones before flexible screens become the next thing.

I still have the Note 5 for work and I have a S9 for my daily, I do all my paperwork on the Note. I wish I had gotten the Note 9, but not for $1k+
Hi five note 5 user here, but note 9 is too expensive for me..........
Still rocking a Note 4. A premium phone will always be a premium phone.
I switched from a Note 5 to a Note 9 as my first new phone in years, and I gotta say, it's goddamn amazing. I didn't realize how different it was, since the Note 5 can still fare quite well on it's own (compared to other past-generation phones), but after I made the switch, I can safely say I'm happy I did. Should the Pixel 3 or another new upcoming model not stand out against the level of features included and quality produced with the Note 9, I would say it's the way to go.

Note 9 AKA The KING of Smartphone! Received the Linus award of officially being the " Zero Compromises Smartphone". A designation that was never given to any other hand held.!
0 compramises? Not really but that’s true for every phone each one has a compromise though it is the best phone this year
It might differ from person to person. Say for you the boxy design might not be suitable. So you might think of that as compromised. But for the most part, and for most people, it compromises nowhere :)
Definitely samsung has made it sure that noone compromises with Bixby button.
Users can't delete comments from other people, only report them.
Now Bixby can be turned on by double tapping Bixby button... but still not disabled.
Other reviews complain about the fingerprint reader being too high but since the battery is substantially larger in the Note 9, they had no choice but to place it higher up to accommodate for the battery. I'd rather go through that slight trouble than having a smaller capacity battery.

5 years later, January 2024 I still have my Note 9 512G. Albeit the battery bulged and cracked back cover, if I can get a replacement battery and back cover it should be good to go. But I got a Galaxy S21 Ultra 512G and had no desire to upgrade to the S22/S23 Ultra. The S24 Ultra would be a consideration via I didn't have my S21 Ultra, but I have an iPhone SE and a Google Pixel 7 Pro, that I will give to my sister in a few months to replace her old phone and get a Pixel 8 Pro and carry it with my S21 Ultra. They have different UIs and different things so I can multitask.

TECH GAMER I would wait until s10 apparently there is going to be a complete redesign
How to make a phone perfect in 2018: Make the back nearly any material other than glass.
Why? Its less durable but it allows for nfc, wireless charging, etc. But take a look at pocophone f1
Plastic also allows all those features. Polycarbonate is extremely durable, looks nice on a showroom, and yields instead of cracking/shattering.
Personally, I think aluminium is a terrible choice for a phone body, aside from being a good heat conductor. The second you whoops a phone onto a hard surface, it'll transfer a large chunk of that kinetic energy right into the glass, instead of temporarily deforming and rebounding.
With glass, you get something that looks nice on the showroom, terrible after your fingers so much as look at it because no one thinks to put an oleophobic coating on the stuff on the back, and it either looks like it got shot on the first drop, or you put it in a case and negate its sole benefit: aesthetics.
WHY ARENT YOU A PHONE MANUFACTURER!

Rewatched this because Note 10 just got announced. This is maybe the last real good Note to come out. All it was missing was a wide angle lens. Other than that, the phone is near perfect. The 10 tho? Rip jack.
And even that can be overcome by panorama mode, mostly. Watching the videos about the note 10 and the old ones about the note 9, I am looking for places to buy the note 9. For half the price of the new one!
I did exactly that. I bought my Note 9 when I heard the rumours about the lacks in the new one and I believed it was a better option the 9 for half of the price and I couldn't be happier. Best features per price ratio right now!
The CRAP Note 10 bought me here!!!!
I just switched to the Note 9 this week (from an HTC 10). The Note 10's punch-hole display and lack of a headphone jack made it not even a consideration.
No jack killed me ever upgrading to the note 10 although I probably never would've gotten a 10 anyway cuz I just upgraded to a note 9
So mine finally broke, it got smashed pretty good, but now 2,5 years later, there's honestly nothing that satisfies my needs this well anymore, especially since you can find the 512gb model for 300 bucks now. So i just ordered a Note 9 again. The most solid Note ever made to this day!
It's still available new?
I got the ocean blue note 9. After 4 weeks of use, one thing i can say when i compare its FUNCTIONALITY with other phones: it is like comparing a bike with a bulldozer. This phone is not a phone. It is a TOOL. And anyone who dares to disagree with this, is a tool. This phone is the definition of INNOVATION.
Hey there, did you upgrade to OneUI? If yes, do you like it more than Samsung Experience 9.5?
@@ImCeatra hello, note 9 pie user here. I absolutely love oneui, and i actually think not very much has changed, but things still got better somehow. Probably the biggest change was the look. But as i said, very similar to oreo.
nearly 5 years later, and here i am still rocking my Note 9, because i love this damn phone
It's still a great phone! But since there's no longer official support for it anymore I've turned to get using custom roms, hopefully the awesome community can keep support going a little more longer
You wrote this 11mo ago when the phone was about 3.5 years old lol. How did u get that "nearly 5" 😂😂😂😂
I just switch to Samsung Notes9 after 14 years using apple ....Guys ...i love it
apple products are just for people who don't know the possibilities and/or aren't even remotely tech savvy and only have money to spend for a product. Thats why you love it. I know apple products are safer but i'd rather risk safety for cool features and possibilities honestly.
You used apple.......for 14 years!?!!!?!?!
Tell me your secret
How did you survive
Welcome to our army
Switched to Note 9 from iPhone SE.. Oh dear, I promise I will never look back on Apple ever again.
Nice one mate, I have ordered the Note 9 too
I love the Samsung S9+ but the note 9's battery though... damn son!!! ... + you got to give it to Samsung when it comes to NFC and MST technology on their mobile payments platform. There have literally been times were I was in places were businesses specified that there was no tap and the things still works... People are amazed.
Linus if your reading this do a mobile payment comparison. Apple Pay, Android Pay, Samsung Pay...
Facts. Samsung Pay is heavenly
Melvin Jefferson
If you have any money left after N9 purchase lol. I suppose that's why credit cards were invented. Bless 'em!
@@meldagreat wait why is Samsung pay so special? I still haven't set it up but I was gonna use Google pay
@@HearMeLearn Samsung Pay uses MTS (which makes it recognizable on any cashiers mobile payment system. Even the old ones.) Google Pay uses Nfc only
👌
If it could just absorb one more android, it would become perfect.
Linus is gonna destroy the iPhone max lol. Saying its 300 more than the note 9 with less display more bezel a notch no jack no fast charging smaller battery no stylus etc
@@girlsdrinkfeck but yeah thats all true
I got mine 3 weeks ago and user experience is crazy good
It's far from perfect, it doesn't even have a removable battery. It's fine for office workers and people near a plug, but if you like go out places and do stuff with your life, not so great. Fast charging isn't much use if you don't have a power supply.
S22 just came out. I still have the Note 9 and I'm keeping it because it's still PERFECT.
4:50 you mean to tell me you’re going to watch a movie sitting like that?😂
I didn't think that i would use the S Pen a lot before i switched to the Galaxy Note 5, but then i never switched back to another phone without stylus. From the ability to quickly put down some note while the screen's off (espescially when i'm programming because i don't want to stand up and go find some paper, and writing with a pen always helps the brain to think better), to precisely edit photo in snapsheet, capture screen and precisely caption on it, to the ability to select text anywhere just like a mouse on a computer, and being able to put the phone on my bed while lay up side down over a pillow using the pen to easily use the phone,...the pen actually gives a productivity boost. And when you don't need it, it takes no space other than a toy pen that you can pull out and enjoying the clicky feeling of the tail.
Question is, how do you improve a phone like that now, minus just bumping the specs next year
Meaningful spec bumps will be the real challenge for next year. There are plenty of design and function improvements you can make.
Sharif Sircar 0 bezels, on screen fingerprint reader, better os
Samsung is really close to a perfect phone
Run iOS on it.
cancerous
Michael Morgan good one ahah made me laugh
Why can't we have this phone with note 20 ultra design and updated specs I love the size of the note 9
The Note 9 IS perfect. I honestly don't see a single thing that they did wrong with this phone. It literally is the perfect smartphone for EVERY type of user.
not being able to reprogram the bixby button only thing bad
Except for the users that don't have 1000$ for a phone.
do you have fortnite galaxy skin then?
I own one and I'm in love with it. But I'm insecure about the software updates etc
@@harrylaflare846 Bixby what? never heard of it. lol
At a time when everyone is cashing in on the iPhone hype train, Linus the Lone Wolf reviews the Note 9....
what train?
@@Flyinghotpocket Its not a literal train...😂😂
new iphones just released, making a video with iphone in the title = views / clicks / ads === $$$$$
Iphone sucks they should have stopped with X cuz they just makes same shit all over again for bigger price tag
Didn't Apple tell you, they're marketing notches on their screens. Literally worth 1450, alone.
PUBG ad on the review of a Fortnite sponsored phone. I see what was done there, and I like how competitive it is.
*Little did he know he would still use it for the next 3 years*
I came to this review after finding out that Linus is still using this phone in 2021. I expected him to be way more hype than this hahaha
*samsung releases new device*
world - *crickets*
*apple releases new device*
world - “MUST. OWN. NEW. IPHONE.”
change world to apple fanboys then it’s accurate
Fat John
the world is mostly iPhone users
not really. The US is the main market, in Europe Samsung is a trusted brand, exactly how Nokia was back in it's prime.
@@desiredfilm1071 seriously?
Marius
Ah, here in America no one really uses Samsung. Most people here use iPhones because of iCloud and how well everything syncs. I would’ve switched to Samsung by now if it wasn’t for that awful OS.
Sponsoring PUBG on a samsung note 9 video, a phone for which Fortnite was exclusive for a month!! BALLSY
@Anon 1 Who said anything about sponsoring a phone?
Let's hope this becomes another stop sign for phones it will be fun to see this vid 5 years from now and see how more we can improve.
Honestly new features are going to need to be invented to make a real improvement. We can't really improve what it is besides price and aesthetics right now.
@@gabemerritt3139 I think that might be why there's such a push for flexible displays and foldable smartphones right now...doesn't seem to have much practical purpose, but would stand out as an innovative feature for whoever finishes it first
I don't know. it seems like we are coming to a wall when it comes to phones now. how much more faster can they get?
Hopefully they finally focus on battery and don't give us "bigger battery BUT there's a 4K screen and a pancake maker so it comes down to the same battery life time".
@@MrBibi86 well I mean they aren't very far from instantaneous responsiveness in every regard when it comes to daily use. So not very much fastee
I use that headphone jack everyday
Yeah when you have a decent pair of wired headphones that you love and you don't want to have to bluetooth headphones then the Jack is super useful
Same I use it everyday for a little bit a day or at least enough times a week that it matters.
Yeah same
I have a 3 year old phone lol
The Note 9 must have "bunged up his formula" pretty hard for him to forget to say a word from his sponsors and clip it in lol 0:28
So RUclips saying that in 2020 note 9 is in your budget
I just love to handwrite stuff, draw, squelch.
Also the pen is really useful when you pair it with photos, videos and screenshots. it is an undervalued and underfeatured tool that could be much more used and desirable if Samsung explored it more.
Just love mine.
He is still daily driving note 9
And then he never stopped using it
He's still running this phone 😂That's a heck of an endorsement to still be using the Note 9 to this day.
I am still using it in 2023 and it is PERFECT
6:11 That was chilling
PubG on a Fortnite phone? Oh, the irony.
Nah, he means that Fortnite had a deal where you could get a special skin if you purchased the Note 9 lol
Fortnut is BIG gAE
Well epic games did contribute to pubg mobile
John Phillips dude, look at that phones ads Fortnites on one of them that’s what he’s talking about
@John Phillips ur a dumb piece of shit lol
in fairness linus is still daily driving this to this day, 2 years later
Headphone jack yeah!
Alexander how to spot a backwards thinking dumbass
and most of all the headphone jack is actual a really usefull feature :) sorry Apple etc.. but it's true !
@@DavidRamirez-vc8dr ur are the dumbass.....Why you need to charge your headphones?? Why you need to concede by Apple propaganda to spend spend spend??.....U r a dumbass
@@zombiecow1234 I guess apple can't make much money
@@adakhochalai true that 😂😂
No compromises phone. He stands by it.
September 2021 and HE STILL USES THE SAME PHONE!!!!
I'm watching this on my note 9 right now
LG Productions do you recommend this phone ? I currently use a iPhone 6S and I’m going to be upgrading soon.
Uzumaki Reject I got the Xs Max instead, and I really recommend it.
Uzumaki Reject I’m using Note 9 and highly recommend this phone. I stop using iPhone since iPad Pro announced couple years ago. My very last iPhone was 6s. Never again to buy an iPhone while my iPad Pro can do more. So, if comparing iPhone Xs Max to Note 9, easy answer...Note 9.
Same
To valid your purchase
Note 9 is the best note since note 4. They limited it's life lack of Software upgrades Smh.
Worst part is the crap we had to pick from afterwards. While the phones kept getting more expensive..
5:43 when you thought your friend is taking a pic
One of the most beautiful designs for a phone, both hardware and software ever imo.
Then they screwed it up with the S10 and One UI.
I hate notches and punch holes.
And don't particularly like underscreen fingerprint sensors, the optical ones atleast.
But they killed the active :C i love the active series.
the S9 active is coming out
Active isnt for the note series anyways
Theres not a need for the active series now that the mainline phones have ip68
feels bad man
@@dapper4839 on the contrary, the active line was more about ruggedization than water resistance, but you are right, why get an active when you can just get an otter box now.
mid-2022 and note9 is still the king... especially if u bought the 8gb/512 version like me.
Who's here because they know Linus' daily phone is still the Galaxy Note 9?
I am praying for the android updation 😭😭😭😭
Any one else here for the only notchless, hole punchless, and headphone jack option in July 2019. We're in a shit era for smartphones right now. Note 9 seems to be a good option... no wide angle camera though.
True
Just bought mine for the same reason. Hate the notch or these punchholes. And no headphone jack?? I spent $600 to get myself a Note 9
I honestly love my Note 9, so glad I decided to pull the trigger when it was released rather than wait for the 10.
Although the Note 10 does look quite pretty with that massive display and same size form factor, I can't get over the fact on how disconnected reviewers are from reality. Like, when running apps, some apps just make the top bar be completely black due to the lack of optimisation of including the punch hole. I'd prefer equal bezels on both sides rather than a really large one on top and small one on bottom. It really just creates a TV looking screen that is great for viewing content.
Headphone jacks are also very important for me, it's just so convenient, I can't believe the "if you buy a premium phone, you should be able to buy wireless headphones" argument, a premium phone is meant to include it all is it not? Nonetheless, I can understand the transition due to marketing their wireless earphones though it's just not to my taste, at least I have the bose 700s to make up for it.
The wide angle camera isn't that important for me, it's a recent release so I'm fine on missing out on the feature.
The day I'll be upgrading is the day when in screen cameras (with good quality) are released for commercial use
Bixby is the only reason I will not be upgrading. That goddamn button has caused me SO MANY HEADACHES and millions of people were pissed about it as well. Anytime I wanted to turn volume up or down, I would always hit that goddamn button by accident. I can't believe Samsung put it in the Note 9.
Why does no one talk about BxActions? You can remap the Bixby button to do almost anything!
Addison Heavner Did they fix BxActions yet? I got an update that broke it a few weeks ago
@@ohnoitschris I guess the new Bixby update that Linus mentions in the video has broken some things. I have Bixby updates disabled so mine is still working great. Hopefully Samsung re-enables the functionality to disable Bixby so that BxActions can work correctly again.
I would say since it's not a first party solution, reviewers don't want people to do things to their phones and get blamed for it.
@@theboy2385 Actually there's an adb script provided that will totally disable Bixby. It will just instantly perform whatever action you have it set to and won't launch Bixby.
My bxactions still works, tho I also believe I disabled the updates for bixby. However, bxactions never worked 100% of the time in the first place, so I wouldn't know if Bixby somehow updated itself and partially broke bxactions
Still running my Note 9 as my daily driver. Probably won't replace it until the battery stops making it thru the day.
5:31 that was nice of them to visit Jodi Arias for a quick feature
Whats an iphone?
Its a microscopic phone that fits in your eye.
An Iphone it basically an Apple product which duplicates every Iphone every year but with higher price
@@maj9991
It was, but the new iPhone is actually cheaper than the iPhone X
a scam.
@@omarnotfound No never im sticking with Samsung
He needs a 2024 video about the Note 9
I dont know why there is still a fight between android and apple because apple isnt even relevant anymore
Precisely
iPhones wouldn’t be more popular if that was the case.
@@MrEmanthedrummer but android is way more popular
Juul Blom regardless of what’s more popular, it’s doesn’t make any sense to say Apple isn’t relevant anymore. They’re one of the most, if the not the most, popular tech brand out there. Saying they’re irrelevant is kind of dumb. No offense of course. They’re relevant because there is a fight. Basically Apple vs every other phone brand, especially Samsung. Theres obviously a reason they’re the first trillion dollar company and there’s a reason people line up for days to buy iPhones over other android phones. And no I’m not an Apple sheep. I like both sides but I just don’t think it makes sense to say that.
IKR. I dont know why android user still compare them self to the apple.
