5/7/2023 0 Comments Note 9 one ui brighter screen![]() The wireless remote function turned out to be a pretty amazing feature. I use my S Pen to take notes, sketch and take big selfies. The Bluetooth LE addition to the S Pen has given it a new meaning. Many reviewers tell that they forget the S Pen after quite some time. Even my old and used Galaxy Note 9 has so much to offer so I can say that it is a trustworthy device. Regardless of these, a renewed Note 9 in the $250 range is a great choice if it has a fresh battery. As it is an old device, the availability of a battery pack in the future is a big question. It also misses new other optimization updates. So Galaxy Note 9 misses on advanced battery protection health features such as limit that allows only charging up to 85%. In 2023, there is a new One UI that has more features. In order to maintain battery health, I have also turned off fast charging. I use the phone on FHD+ resolution with optimized mode. The standby time is still more than 2 days if I don’t do anything. Even though the battery is weak, my 4 year old Samsung Galaxy Note 9 gives about 4 hours of screen on time in 2023. So that is what we miss on this device.Īs of now, the battery is quite weak and it drops rather quickly. Some flagship devices even have 165 Hz panels. So most of them have refresh rates anywhere from 90Hz to 120 Hz. These days mid-range smartphones come with screens that have higher refresh rates and touch sampling rates. That is the only thing that matters if you are concerned about a smooth experience. The display sector has progressed a lot and Galaxy Note 9 definitely lacks a higher refresh rate screen. It is not fair to just show pros because there are some things I miss too. So the screen looks amazing and the combination of all these is almost impossible to find in a new phone at the current price range. Just to point out the Galaxy Note 9 has a 6.4″ Super AMOLED screen, 1440×2960 resolution, HDR10 rating, Corning Gorilla Glass 5, 710 nits peak brightness, and no notch or hole. The mid-range phones even in 2023 at that price don’t have a display as good as Note 9. So in that range, we have to see budget and mid-range phones. ![]() On Amazon USA, re-newed Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is available for $200. Actually, we can also compare the screen of the Note 9 with some high-end phones too. We have to compare it with mid-range devices that are in the same range. As the price of the phone has come down in the market, we can’t compare it with flagship phones. Samsung Galaxy Note 9 definitely has a really powerful screen at this time too. I did talk about the screen while talking about the design but there is some more thing to discuss. It doesn’t have the latest Android 12, latest One UI, and latest features from Samsung.Īdvertisement Screen: Far Better Even Today So this is one downside with Galaxy Note 9 in 2023. It is quite disappointing that such as capable device was not allowed to have better updates. So we can say that Note 9 didn’t make the list of devices that were promised to get long-term updates. The Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy S10 that were launched one year later are using Android 12 with OneUI 4.1. There have also been a few updates but not as expected. Most of those are seen in software features and S Pen. Along this update journey, Samsung has added features that were introduced on Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 20 products. Then came Android 10 which brought One UI 2.5 and just a few changes. It also brought navigation upgrades, interface changes, icon changes, visual changes, design changes, and battery improvements. In the Android 9 update, Samsung introduced One UI to Note 9 which brought Night mode or Dark mode. In these 4 years, Samsung has done a lot of changes and we have discussed that in our 6-month review too. ![]() Latest Software in Samsung Galaxy Note 9 in 2023 ![]()
