    Average lifespan of a Flagship phone? Passing on my Note 9 to family

    Same here. Always in a case, and make sure it's updated regularly. Sad to see this one go, personally, but I'm sure my dad will love it (and I hope it will continue to serve him well for a few more years)!

    Average lifespan of a Flagship phone? Passing on my Note 9 to family

    Thanks. Yeah, this phone has never failed me. Still snappy and sharp after all this time. And same here, one of my favorite phones ever. I hope the next Note phones in the future would live up to the Note 9s quality and performance!

    Hi mustang7757. Thanks. I guess, there's not much else I can change right? In other words, I better get used to this new vibration pattern for everything?

    Hi mustang7757. Sorry for the late reply. I'm looking for individual? Last time I remember, my messenger vibrate is different from my other app notifications. I couldn't seem to find the setting to change this.

    Hello again mustang7757 :) Thanks for that - did you mean all those you've mentioned are backed up by Samsung Cloud? What does Google Drive back up that's unique to it then?
