You probably have figured out by now, but if not, you go to your recent apps and then tap on the icon on top of the app to enable split screen

The S Pen connects to the note 9 via bluetooth low energy(LE) (that's why when u turn off bluetooth you can still use the s pen fully), whenever you restart your phone the s pen has to reconnect to the phone via bluetooth LE

Hey, so I got mine yesterday in Luxembourg and I decided to test their claims. I tried to take the same pictures before and after the update. With and without HDR. I'm not sure if I'm missing something but I hardly see any difference at all. These are all in indoor light condition at night (so...

I believe I know the reason for this. If you have "secure folder" set up, a few apps will show as 2 apps, even in the app drawer. One of them is the secure folder-protected version of it and the other one is the regular app.

Black crush or shadow clipping is an issue when a part of the screen that is very close to absolute black (but not quite) loses a lot of detail, especially at very low brightness level. The term is used in Erica Griffin's Note 9 Review part 1, from minute 4:53 onwards

yes. top speaker is more treble focused while the bottom one offers a richer sound. They combine to give the stereo illusion. Also yes, it is louder.

The tl;dr is that I believe Apple means that a *realistic* adjustable bokeh effect hasn't been possible before. Samsung uses rough estimates while the new iPhones have a depth map that will eventually work with Lightroom to further tweak bokeh. No other phone produces a depth map I think. Ok...

it's just a subtle aesthetic change. that's Samsung in a nutshell. throws in a bunch of features hoping some ppl find them useful. Customization is one he'll of a subjective matter

Will give it a try, thanks a lot!

I I went into my apps to see if any of them were misbehaving, and I found that the Find My Mobile app by Samsung consumed over 20% of the battery. I'm not sure if this is the actual battery usage of this one service, or rather is just the conglomerate use of "Android OS". Is this behavior...

hmm, must've been a weird bug. I'm now reaching100% underthe same conditions. weird. Thanks alotguys!

Hey, so I just got my note 9 128gb a couple of days ago, and yesterday I unplugged it at 94% battery. However today the battery percentage would not go above 85% after a good 10 min or so. Is this something Samsung is doing in order to prevent battery degradation in the long term or do I have a...

Since I have the international F variant, updates are a bit faster (had marshmallow since last month) and bloat is only Samsung sided. That said, I'm still in love with this phone like the first day, and if I could snatch it in the 400€ range I would probably pick it up again. The screen is one...

I have the F variant and I got it about a week ago here in Luxembourg. It's acrually notably better than Lollipop. Posted via the Android Central App
