THE DETAILS
Samsung’s Galaxy Note 9 pops a wallop because it’s designed to also power a DeX desktop experience too.
The highlights:
- The Note 9 has an all-day battery at 4,000mAh. That’s Samsung’s largest battery in its product portfolio. Galaxy Note 9: What does ‘all-day battery’ mean?
- Samsung doubled storage to 128GB at the base level and available at 512GB. And there’s a microSD card slot to add more than 1TB of storage to the device.
- The Note 9 boasts a 33 percent bump in CPU performance and 23 percent gain in GPU performance relative to the Note 8.
- Samsung’s DeX platform can connect your phone to a monitor and keyboard via an USB-C to HDMI adapter.
- The intelligent camera includes Flaw Detection and also has a neural network on the Note 9 to recognize context and settings and adjust for scenes. The front-facing camera is 8MP and the dual rear cameras are 12MP each. Samsung opted to improve the software and machine learning behind camera in the Note 9. The cameras in the Note 9 are an improvement on the Note 8, but are largely the same as the Galaxy S9 setup.
- A wireless charging dock uses one outlet and can charge two devices (presumably a Samsung phone and smartwatch).
- The S Pen gets Bluetooth low energy (BLE) so it can function as a remote control within 10 meters. The S Pen charges when you put it into your smartphone and the battery charges fully in less than 40 seconds. BLE enables the S Pen to control the camera by default and other applications based on your preference.
- Available colors for the new phone include Ocean Blue, Lavender Purple, Metallic Copper and Midnight Black.
Samsung Galaxy owners can be the first to download the Fortnite beta now (Just go to Galaxy App Store to download).
