Wait for the Note 9 or buy the S9 Plus unlocked if good deal?

[Blues Fan]

I plan on buying the Note 9 in sept when it comes out since I got the Note 8 currently. If it does indeed doesn't have in screen finger print scanner and not much different than Note 8, should I buy the S9 Plus instead? I don't use the spen much but it is a game changer when you need it for something. Also, if there is a sale on it would it be a better choice if the price is good and the Note is like close to $1000?

Definitely wait.

If you don't use the spen too much then you must go for the S9 plus. I am a samsung user for a long time. Some time samsung phone give you some lags. I decide to go for htc. I will wait for the u12 plus.
But some people said the s9 plus is smooth and fast.

If u not in a hurry wait for Note 9 see what it offers ...otherwise buy the S9+ at a cheaper price
I shifted from Note 8 to S9+ 128gb and can't be happier...from amazing battery life to size and amazing stereo speakers...and very very good camera

That pretty much says that you'll miss the S-Pen when you'd need it - so wait.

When I bought the S8 Plus I said I wouldn't buy the Note 8 cause I don't use spen much.

Then I ordered the Note 8!

I still have the tab s3 though too!

Flossy Carter said when the Note 9 comes out then it's lights out for the s9 basically.

you are flossy Carter fan. Me too. He make honest review.

So basically I get the s9 plus and then 3 months from now I get mad that the Note 9 is out and want to spend more cash to buy the Note 9 lol.

I saw the One Plus 6, 8gb and 256gb storage is only $629!

It has a while huge list of compromises as well. With as much as you fret about Samsung devices, I can't imagine you getting the OP 6 and being happy about it when you see the Note 9. OP looks good on the spec sheet but massively under-delivers for the overall quality of product and services.

Greggles was saying today that the Note 9 is rumored to launch at the end of July due to disappointing sales of the S9 line and to get it out before iphone.

 

[Itsa_Me_Mario]

That July thing was rumored before the S9 went on sale, so I don't think it's a response to sales figures.

Well, IF the Note 9 is like close to $1000 and only a minor bump over the Note 8 then I might seriously consider getting the s9 plus. Plus with the deals by then on them I'd save some $$. I'd still have tab s3 for the spen fix and by then I might just buy tab s4.

Didn't realize that you had the exact same questions in another thread.

IF? Of course it will be close to $1000.

I think it was $925 last year right? But with tax yea it comes close to it, plus buying a couple cases for it too.

Verizon shows the Note 8 as $960 retail even today. Of course you can do better. When the Note 9 comes out, they will offer trade in deals and a free accessory or two as early incentives. Best Buy will probably have gift card bonus - the usual deals will be around. But yeah, it will retail at close to $1000.

Why are Verizon's phones always priced so high? LOL no way I'd pay that for a Note 8 right now.

Carrier phones also seem to run a tad higher at Best Buy as well.

Best Buy currently has the s9 plus verizon for $912 lol.

I'd wait to see what promos the carriers offer to compete with the next iPhone rollout. BOGOs and such make a big difference, plus waiting a little helps avoid major product snafus and recalls.

Note 9 hands down
