Review on Renewed Samsung Galaxy Note 9 in AT&T Cloud Silver, 128GB Storage by Avut Aunpang ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Absolutely unusable product, not suitable for use.

It's been around two years since I started using it; it could have been longer or shorter; I don't really remember. The screen did not melt, and PWM is imperceptible to the human eye even when the brightness is set to its lowest level. The difference between AMOLED and TFT displays is immediately noticeable, making AMOLED the superior option. This is a brilliant photo that was taken on a sunny summer day in the middle of a field when the sun was at its peak and while the subject was resting while watching movies and other stuff before retiring to bed (the screen boundaries are not felt in the dark) (and yes, this is harmful, but there are habits). To this day, I have not seen a single person who could convince me that a rounded screen has any redeeming qualities. When you switch from conventional displays, you will need to get used to glare interference around the edges of the screen. The stylus itself is very user-friendly, however the button on it that allows you to use it with the sketching tool is cumbersome. Because the pressure is so intense, you should begin to be concerned that the stylus will crack and fall to the ground. In spite of this, everything works just fine for drawing, with the exception of the rounded screen. At a distance of around one centimeter, the calibration begins to degrade, and it becomes difficult to draw on the rounded area of the object. On the other hand, the rounded borders of the screen may not work properly with particular programs. The Bixby button is a feature that was mandated by the company but I have no need for, and it constantly brings my attention back to myself. It's a full-fledged button that's located on the side, and although it could have been put to good use, it isn't. It's possible that I don't need all of the applications whose names start with "Samsung," but despite my best efforts to disable them, they continue to update and make their presence known despite my efforts. I recently purchased a watch and loaded it with a messaging application. When some time had passed, I found out that Samsung had installed their fitness watch app for me and had made an offer to sell me their watch. The camera is not terrible, but it is obvious that it is not a flagship model. The quality is good, but after a number of software updates in which interesting capabilities were eliminated, it is now indistinguishable from the cameras found in budget models that were introduced approximately six months after the debut of the Note9. It is simply not accurate to compare it to the Mate 20 Pro since it is extremely noisy. The hole that appeared in the screen of the succeeding Notes was the last and most significant letdown in the series. And Samsung's stance, which dictates that users have no say in the matter, places the company in the same category as other undergiants.

Pros
  • AMOLED screen, Resolution of the screen, RAM, the performance of the processor and the video, a stylus, The availability of a case with a see-through lid, which enables the user to write on top of the case (a feature that is quite useful!).
Cons
  • Bixby, with a rounded screen Built-in software from Samsung, the inability to calibrate the stylus, camera and software.
