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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A practical product, nothing to complain about.

In general, a very good phone, but IMHO such a pleasure is too expensive. I did not particularly notice a breakthrough in work, but the gap in price with the same series A is huge. For those to whom the cost is critical - you need to look for more budget models. There, in principle, everything is the same, but something is missing. In one model, the camera is bad, in the other there is no water protection, in the third there is something else. Everything seems to be fine here, but the price for this team is exorbitant.

Pros
  • The presence of water protection, a powerful processor, a large amount of memory, good sound and good headphones included. The stylus has not yet understood. There are probably pluses in it, but I used to use it about 10 years ago on a smartphone under mobile Windows, when I couldn’t poke a finger on the screen and there was no way without a stylus. Since then, I have not used it and have not yet figured out why it will be useful to me on this phone. I think it's a good idea for remote control of the camera and slides, we'll try it. Very tactile body. Therefore, he did not spoil it with any cover. In general, covers are some kind of , but on the other hand, the toad is strangling that at the slightest fall the back glass wall will crumble into pieces.
Cons
  • rounded screen, glass back, imposed programs from Samsung, was only in bronze color. The battery is quite mediocre, before that there was an A7 in 2022, where the screen is about the same. The mode of use is the same, the battery held much better, but there it has a smaller capacity. In general, I removed it from the charge in the morning, put it in the evening. There can be no talk of any days. Handwriting with a stylus does not work well. Too many mistakes. It's hard to make corrections. In general, I tried it, but I realized that, out of habit, my finger on the keyboard is faster and more convenient. You can not put 2 SIM cards + a memory card: either 2 SIM cards, or a SIM card plus a memory card. With such an amount of internal memory, it seems to be not critical, but for me it has always been a guarantee of data retrieval. I took out the SD from the phone and the data is always with you. Now it is solved, of course, by cloud storage, so this is a relative disadvantage, but nonetheless. Headphones were quite mediocre. The sound is good, but after trying to insert my usual JBL for 1.5 thousand, I can say that the JBL sounds even better. Although the seller touted these AKGs that came with the kit as super duper and they were priced separately under 4 thousand. In general, either the JBL is so good, or the AKG is not worth the money.
