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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

An excellent device for me, a long-time gadget lover who is constantly looking for the perfect phone. With its pros. Great device. Almost perfect, with the exception of a couple of points, which I will write about in shortcomings. Pros: 1. Screen 2. Camera 3. All kinds of unlocks. I especially want to focus on the fingerprint sensor. It seems to me that it works a little better than in the eighth series (before that I used S8 and Note 8) 4. Stylus. An indispensable thing for handwritten notes and drawing, as well as for working with text (copy-paste). The ability to use the stylus as a remote control to the camera or player. 5. 4000mAh battery 6. Stereo speakers. Relevant for those who often watch video content from the smartphone screen. 7. Performance. 8. Both SIM cards can work in LTE mode at the same time. In my opinion, it is doubtful, and a plus that is not very clear to me, because LTE is needed for data transfer, and data transfer is carried out with one of the two sims, of your choice. Got cons: The disadvantages described below are not critical, but still, if they were not there, the device would be a reference. In addition, most of them are of a software nature, and theoretically fixable. 1. The ability to install a "sandwich" is blocked. Those. installation of two sim cards and a memory card at the same time (undermined a sim card and a microSD card in one slot of the tray). On many previous devices used a similar scheme. 2. There is no option to disable Bixby Home. I often press the Bixby button when I pick up the device, and this is somewhat annoying. 3. Despite the battery capacity of 4000 mAh (which is more than in the same Note 8), the device is far from records for autonomy. I compare with HTC U11+ and BlackBerry KeyOne. And the comparison with Lenovo P2, which my child uses, is not worth talking about. But, most often, its charge is enough for me for the whole working day, and closer to the night the phone starts to actively ask for charging. Other models listed above still have a significant charge reserve at this time.
