OK.... well coming from years of Moto it has taken a bit. What a beast the note 9 is. Moto vs Samsung took some getting use to for me but its starting to pay off. And YES after learning Bixby a little better, its starting to work for me. A lot more powerful for controlling apps than I imagined. For me current updates are no longer an issue now that I dont root my phones (no need to) anymore. Not saying yet however this may have been a great investment after all. My other Moto phones work great however the Samsung hype is starting to rub off on me. Yes I will say it again............Life is good.....and maybe getting even better!
