And something unexpected as a "WOW" factor. The competition is getting close in specs. Samsung needs to step up to the plate and surprise us.

A dedicated audio DAC would be a pleasant and welcome surprise!

1. Better stock keyboard
2. Bixby 2.0 - very excited about this!
3. In display FPS
4. BIGGER SCREEN
5. Icon pack support in Samsung Experience
6. 4000 mAh battery
7. Remove carrier bloat

[Cary Quinn]

Slightly wider and thicker, if they are going to be taller for a 6.4" screen.

Bring back the Edge Clock as a seperate option.

Bring back install from Unknown sources as a seperate option.

better price tag

8 of the 13 have been confirmed. Should be pretty awesome.

Which 8, or should it be obvious?

[bassplayrguy]

Which 8, or should it be obvious?

These have been confirmed through the S9+

[TechNut79]

The better battery is debatable. With the S-pen needing to be in the Note 9, there will be less room for a bigger battery. Also, the last one I disagree with. The Note 4 was seen as the pinnacle of the Note line. With the removal of removable battery, flat screen, and IR blaster, they're not listening to all customers needs.

[Nakrohtap]

Samsung can't listen to everyone. They listen to the masses. If 1% say they won't buy a Samsung phone unless it has a 4K screen, they won't all of the sudden start making phones with 4K screens. Same for the flat screen and removable batteries.
I heard the in screen fingerprint sensor is what is allowing them more room for a bigger battery.
Personally, I would like a 6.5 or 6.6" screen with no notch.

[TechNut79]

I'll likely get it anyway. I can't keep my Note 4 forever.

[ken johnson7]

I've enjoyed my Note 8! Quite happy with its speed, size screen etc. 2 Huge shortcomings in my opinion. Base memory for a premium phone directed towards "power users" is totally inadequate! My 64 gig was full in 4 months. I have a 400 gig card and that's great but I can't use it for apps. It's not fast enough and Android won't allow it without rooting which I have found next to impossible on this phone. The second item is battery capacity. My iPhone 7+ battery will outlast my Note by several HOURS! In fact, I've resorted to an external 5500 mah variety and now I have real flexibility except it's thick and heavy but I like it! Just Don't think it should be necessary.

The same people that want the 4K displays...would then complain about battery life. Cause the 4K screens take so much to power them up.

Without having to go thru such shenanigans to sideload it, and not all features working.

And the death of Samsung Notes.

[Cary Quinn]

Samsung Notes isn't going away, but I agree with just building all the previous popular features from S Note into the app. (Especially Action Memo!) I think the whole industry needs better note integration across the board.

[BB_PP]

I would like

1. a larger battery
2. 2.5d screen (like in the Note 4)
3. a better camera that shows detail instead of beautifying/softening/smoothing out everything
4. a new and improved S Note or an improved Samsung notes which features/functions of the earlier S Note
5 Stereo speakers
6. 128 gb onboard ram

128 gb of ram?

[djrakowski]

I'd like to see:

• a higher-capacity battery (couldn't care less about thinness)
• keep it at 6 GB of RAM (I didn't think it would make a difference, but my S9+ with 6 GB is noticeably smoother in comparison to my regular S9 with 4) - I think 8 GB would be overkill unless it would make multitasking with DeX more useful
• more internal storage options (64, 128, 256)

Throwing in a DeX dock or wireless charging pad would be a nice bonus.

Me too. I like the Note feature but the main problem is that it doesn't connect me to other services. I have to export my Notes as PDF. Unless I use another program. Samsung makes a windows PC with pen support, but there is not Desktop app that syncs with the Galaxy Note.

Not having note syncing ability across different platforms and devices is a thing they need to fix. I don't want to export as a PDF all the time They'll probably just come out with a new 'feature' like writing gifs tho. We'll see.

Absolutely agree!. S Note was a big part of the Note line when it first came out.

Settings>Developer Options>Scroll to bottom>Force move apps to SD card.

No need for root. You just need to unhide the Dev Options.

[Carrie Greicar]

I'd like to be able to assign different LED colors without having to have a light manager.

I'd also like to see a messaging system that has the capabilities to send HD videos (similar to Apple) that doesn't rely on the MMS limitations and doesn't require another user to download and use that app to receive and send.

[sweetypie31]

I'd like better speakers. My s8 plus speakers are horrid and I think they are going out.
