For those who already know the line, you will notice that the design changes of the Galaxy Note 9 are discreet. This year, Samsung has managed to increase the display's span and eliminate the side bezels even further. As a result, the Note9, as well as the Galaxy S9, kept its size and the gained a little more available area to work.

Galaxy Note 9 has a glass body.

composed of Gorilla Glass 5 that protects both the 6,4-inch infinity screen and the back of the model, the Notes 9 has aluminum edges and visual identity of the line, with more defined and less rounded lines than those present in the Galaxy S9+.

On the right side we find the button to turn the device on/off. On the side are the volume buttons and, just below them, a button dedicated to Bixby - which is now in your Google Assistant, also present in Note9, as it is much more useful.

Bixby button remains on the left side of the smartphone.

On the base, we have a USB-C input, a speaker, the compartment used to store the S Pen Pen and a headphone jack.

Samsung chose to keep the “sacred” connection for headphones.

That's right. THE Samsung chose to keep the “sacred” connection for headphones. This was a wise decision, as currently manufacturers who dare to withdraw it suffer from the instant hate of some consumers.

USB-C connection, S-Pen input and audio output are at the base of the Note 9

In a welcome change, the manufacturer moved the fingerprint reader under the rear cameras. It's still not very easy to reach if you have small hands, but the new placement should prevent the from touching the camera's lenses and blurring them by accident.

In addition, we can count on the good old IP68 certification, which protects the Note9 against dust and fresh water dips (up to 1,5 m) of up to 30 minutes.

Note 9 with S Pen in yellow color.

Finally, one of the most beautiful additions to the design of the Notes 9 this year concerns the colors of both the model and the S-Pen. The devices will be sold in Brazil in black, blue and copper, with special S-Pens for each color.

For models in black and copper, the S-Pen follows with the same tone. For the blue model, the marker gains a very special yellow tone, making it perhaps one of the most beautiful options.

Samsung has given additional personalization touches, making each model by default “write” on the screen with the color of the pen that comes with it.

Note 9 has a screen with Super AMOLED technology.

And speaking of screen, Galaxy Note 9 has an infinite display of 6,4 inches and Super AMOLED technology, with a resolution of 2960 x 1440 pixels, in an 18:5:9 aspect ratio. As with other top-of-the-line devices from Samsung, here you can adjust the screen resolution to Full HD + or even HD +.

Bringing these numbers to everyday use, consuming content through the Notes 9 it's just amazing. In fact, the screen is so amazing that it earned the smartphone the title of best youtube experience. With a pixel density of 516 ppi, the colors presented by the display are worthy of a device from the Samsung. That is, here we have another screen with deep blacks and even great viewing angles.

Always-on display delivers information without draining battery life.

Furthermore, the display of Galaxy Note 9 is standard compliant HDR10, which guarantees images with more detail and brightness, and also has the always-on. The latter shows notifications and other types of information on the dark screen, without having to turn it on completely. Even with this, there is no significant drain on the battery, as on screens Super AMOLED shades of black are represented by pixels off – which saves energy.

The Note 9's screen is perfect for using a touch-sensitive pen.

Although it sacrifices an ergonomic grip, the screen of the Galaxy Note 9 is, after all, ideal for the smartphone proposal. Because, to use S Pen Pen easily, it is necessary to have lots of space to maneuver it. And this, the new top of the line Samsung have plenty.

Finally, we have a good news for those who hate notches: Samsung did not place the infamous notch in the upper corner of the screen, now present in new iPhone XS and XS Max. That way you can watch videos or play games without a black bar obstructing some of the content.

Performance 58a2u

Snapdragon 845 processor is ideal for operations with artificial intelligence.

There's nowhere to run, the Galaxy Note 9 it's a real monster. We are talking smartphone with Android which is probably the most potent on the market today. And, part of this performance is due to the processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, that have eight cores and is the latest solution from the chipset maker.

O Galaxy Note9 is the smartphone with Android most potent for sale in Brazil.

With it, it is not only possible to run any and all applications present in the Google Play Store, but also to view high quality video and audio content.

Despite being sold as a productivity smartphone, the Notes 9 is also a good match for the Gamers On duty. With that in mind, the Epic Games (game developer exclusive skin for buyers of the new top-of-the-line Samsung.

“Galaxy” is the exclusive skin of the Galaxy Note 9.

But then, what else does the Notes 9 be so potent? In addition to the processor Qualcomm, the smartphone brings with it 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM. These numbers, which will vary depending on your purchase choice, ensure that all those apps you open simultaneously will be ready to use as soon as you return to them – even on the version with less memory.

Continuing with the options, the Notes 9 Brazilian has, in the version with 6 GB of RAM memory, 128 GB of internal storage. Meanwhile, in the version with 8 GB of RAM, we have absurdities 512 GB of space dedicated to storage. This division proved to be smart, since even in the most “basic” model, it is very hard to run out of space, even more so when the extra slot for microSD memory cards up to 512 GB comes into play.

Note 9 has a hybrid slot for microSD cards and carrier chips.

Yes, you can carry your whole life on the Galaxy Note 9, since, adding the internal storage and the expansion, we have 1 Terabyte of total space – on the 8 GB RAM model. But the warning: it is not possible to use two carrier chips and a micro SD card simultaneously, since the smartphone has a hybrid drawer.

Rear view of the Galaxy Note 9 reveals the smartphone's main camera set.

No Galaxy Note 9, we have the same set of cameras present in the Galaxy S9+, launched later this year in Brazil. While it's a little disappointing not to have new hardware, we can't crucify the Samsung here, as the company's newest top of the line has obtained superior results to any other branded device.

O Galaxy Note 9 is the smartphone with the best cameras in Brazil.

As reported in showmetech, iPhone X.

The reason behind this high score is simple: the main rear camera of the Galaxy Note 9 has variable opening to adapt to all possible lighting conditions. During the day, the sensor 12 SM keeps up with f/2.4 aperture, as the camera does not need all available lighting to be captured. However, during the night, when we have a lack of light, aperture increases to f/1.5, ensuring photos that are richer in detail and with less noise.

Note 9 camera app.

The model has a secondary rear camera of 12 SM with f/2.4 aperture. This, in turn, serves to capture photos with 2x optical zoom. That is, instead of forcing a zoom with the main camera, it is possible to simply switch to the secondary camera and obtain slightly more detailed images within this context. Although it's not really necessary, it's another extra resource that will be there if you need it.

O autofocus of the cameras is also something worthy of praise, since the sensor can identify objects with speed and precision. Even in portrait mode the smartphone did well, with realistic images and a not frustrating “crop” in the highlighted object or person – which is rare even on high-end cell phones.

Live Focus (portrait mode) was already present on the Galaxy Note 8.

Finally, it is worth ing that the main camera of the Galaxy Note 9 is able to film in 4K (3840 x 2160 pixels) at up to 60 frames per second. When the subject is slow-motion, then we have the possibility to shoot videos at up to 240 frames per second. Here, whatever the resolution chosen, the final result will be excellent, since the Notes 9 has optical stabilization image on both rear cameras.

Note 9's single front camera.

leaving for front part of the device, we have only one camera 8 SM with f/1.7 aperture. Yes, again, it's the same camera seen in the Galaxy S9+, which means that the results of both smartphones are very similar. In this way, selfies Galaxy Note 9 come out in good condition low light, with great sharpness and even vibrant colors.

All this result is easy to obtain, since once again we have a fast focus system and that doesn't let you miss the right moment to take the picture. Oh, and if you like those effects of Selfie (including portrait mode itself), know they're all there, in the camera app.

But there is also a downside: the photos from the front camera of the Note9 appear more “closer” than those taken by other contestants, making it somewhat difficult to get the gang together for a group photo with her.

And since I mentioned the camera application native, it is important to say that he had yes some improvements compared to what we saw on other devices from the Samsung. The first novelty is the ability to point the camera at objects and let the Notes 9 decide, through Zenfone 5. According to the manufacturer, there are approx. 20 types of scenes possible.

Note 9's camera is also capable of translating texts in real-time.

The second and last novelty, however, is very interesting for everyday use. When capturing images, the Galaxy Note 9 will automatically detect if any of them are out out of focus or even if someone present in it blinked during the photo. For more simple As this feature looks, it can save your skin at times.

With the help of Bixby, it is also possible to identify the objects and places photographed. You can even translate, in real time, books, magazines, signs and restaurant menus.

Battery 554u5p

Review: galaxy note 9 is the best android smartphone in Brazil. In this review we put the newest smartphone from samsung to the test: the galaxy note 9.
Smartphone has non-removable battery.

Probably the more upgrade compared to the Note 8, the battery of the Galaxy Note 9 has the ability to 4.000 mAh. They are, in total, 700 mAh more than that found in its predecessor and 500 mAh more than the capacity found in the Galaxy S9+.

The Note 9 has a battery that lasts all day.

Bringing this huge number to the daily use, we have a battery that lasts all day. Whether you're a moderate or heavy , your smartphone just won't let you down before you get home.

In addition, a trick that can be used to generate even greater battery savings is lowering the screen resolution. By sacrificing a little bit of image quality, it is possible to gain a few extra hours of autonomy – an option that is very welcome in a 2018 device.

We're talking about a weighty feature for the Galaxy Note 9 and that probably is the one more justifies its price superior in relation to the other products of the brand. Really, do not worry with the battery.

S Pen pen 4e5h6e

New S Pen pen has low consumption Bluetooth connection.

After some updates, the S-Pen finally won one upgrade of respect on your hardware. Now the pen Galaxy Note 9 is able to communicate with the smartphone through the good old Bluetooth. This small detail makes possible a series of new functions.

Using the S-Pen as a remote to take photos from a distance is a super advantage.

In addition to serving write notes ou draw directions in a screenshot, the S-Pen can – via a dedicated button on the pen itself – capture photos with just one click. In other words, if you want to participate in a group photo and prefer to use the rear camera of the Notes 9, it is possible to place it away from you and take the picture with the pen.

With the new Bluetooth connection it is even possible to from one slide to another in a presentation or even advance tracks of music. All this in a very natural way, at least for those who are used to the accessory.

Samsung DeX integrated g3i52

The dock is no longer needed to access Samsung DeX.

Another great novelty brought by the Galaxy Note 9 was the elimination of need for a However,  to access the DeX mode of the smartphone. If you don't know it, the Samsung DeX is a feature present in the new high-end smartphones from Samsung which allows, in short, to turn your cell phone into a Desktop computer.

Now, to access the function, the only needs a USB-C to HDMI cable of any brand or size. Such a model costs around BRL 72 reais.

With a USB-C to HDMI cable, you can connect the Note 9 to monitors and TVs

Bixby 2.0 3tj5r

Bixby 2.0 is now available on the Note 9.

And since we're talking about features that don't work so well, how about we talk a little bit about the Bixby? In case you don't , I mentioned that the Google Assistant, also present in the smartphone.

It is, unfortunately, Bixby is a negative point in any Samsung.

In a nutshell: you can't trust the personal assistant at Samsung because, besides being slow, he's not that smart. In many cases, the search results were not what was expected, which makes the whole assistant bid invalid.

Galaxy Note 9 front camera and sensors.

Galaxy Note 9 has other means of unlocking besides the reliable fingerprint reader. Among them is iris recognition, which works well even in the dark. But, going further, the Samsung released since the S9 the smart reader, which combines iris and face recognition to speed up device unlocking and ensure more security.

Samsung Pay 5cg3t

Samsung Pay was a pioneer in Brazil.

Completing 2 years in Brazil, the payment system Samsung Pay is already a partner of practically all the big banks present in our territory and works in 90% of the local card machines. These are big differences, which make the service the most comprehensive and functional in the country.

Samsung Pay works in more merchants than Google Pay and Apple Pay.

O Samsung Pay allows you to use your smartphone to make payments with credit or debit cards. Through technologies NFC (same as Google and Apple ) to MTS (exclusive to Samsung that simulates traditional magnetic cards), the device connects to the card machines and, after authorization by or biometric authentication, releases the payment - without the need to carry your cards around. And, if it wasn't clear, yes: it's safer than the credit card in your pocket there.

We recently did a interview with Paulo César do Nascimento, the Senior Manager of the platform here in Brazil. There, we clear all possible doubts about the Samsung Pay and we took the opportunity to ask what the company's plans are for our country.

costing from up to BRL 2.000 in exchange by your old smartphone. Although it has exceptional features, the high price is something that must be questioned and makes us recommend buying from operators (which offer good discounts) or that the buyer waits for the first price reductions.

Anyway, if you haven't changed your device for a while and need a smartphone designed for productivity and excellence in photographic quality, the Galaxy Note 9 is currently the best smartphone you can buy in Brazil.
