There’s still no information on pricing but the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 should be around $900 or even reach over a thousand if we are to look at the Note 8 from last year. We’re expecting each carrier will make related announcements in the coming weeks.
Here are the specs and features we know the Galaxy Note 9 will have: 6GB of RAM, 64GB onboard storage (up to 512GB in some markets), ISOCELL Plus camera sensor, Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset, Bixby 2.0, DeX compatibility, dual rear cameras in horizontal position, and a rear fingerprint sensor. Possible colors of the Note 9 are the following: Brown, Black, Gray, Lilac Purple, and Coral Blue.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is expected to have the game Fortnite exclusive before other consumers can have it. A new an improved S Pen will come with it complete with Bluetooth connectivity and probably a battery.
In the coming days, expect more Note 9 information to be uncovered. We’ve seen those official and unofficial Galaxy Note 9 accessories. The phone is believed to be longer-lasting and be more spacious than ever.
August 9 is an early launch probably due to low S9 sales. We’ve also seen those screen protectors and learned what to expect from Samsung.
