2018-08-13
these are the top five reasons not to buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 now before you say I as this is totally one-sided what about reasons to buy the note 9 don't worry we'll also put up another top 5 with the reasons to get the note 9 these lists are based on what Samsung unveiled during its unpacked event so this could change after we do a full review let's get to it at number 5 it's really similar to the note 8 there are a few cosmetic differences between the note 8 and 9 the note 9 moved a fingerprint sensor to a more central location the screen is a tiny bit bigger on the note 9 six point four inches compared to six point three inches both have the same style of screen both have the same ip68 dust and water resistance both have expandable storage if you have a note 8 it's a really hard sell to move to a note 9 if you don't have either the note 8 will likely be available at a discounted price so you could get one of those coming in at number four big speed you have to love Nick's feet or that's what Samsung wants the dedicated bixby button is on the note 9 and it cannot be reassigned to another voice assistant the button can be turned off though Samsung would rather you have a button that does nothing instead of letting you reassign it that's kind of irritating however you can still download google assistant and launch it like any other app number three it's expensive look at that pricing I mean theoretically it's kind of awesome that you can have a phone with 512 gigabytes of on-board storage and eight gigabytes of RAM but will you ever need all of that the note is the top of the line phone by Samsung and boy is it priced like it yikes we are now at number two and that is slow Android updates if you want the latest and greatest version of Android you'll likely be waiting historically Samsung phones have been slow to get updates it's not entirely the company's fault wireless carrier approval plays a part that's being said Samsung has added features to its Android phones that Google eventually integrated like picture and picture video and the number one reason to pass on the note 9 is the Galaxy S 10 is coming the 10th version of the s-series is reportedly coming as early as January 2019 it's rumored to have an in screen ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and since it's the 10th version expect Samsung to try a design change then there are reports of Samsung working to release a foldable phone with a 7.3 inch screen this flexi phone could also launch in 2019 the note 9 while a beast may not have been Samsung's top priority for cutting-edge features did these reasons sour you on the note 9 are you still gunning to get one let us know am i as actor no see you online
