Probably could of used that book, however I threw the Note 9 in the drawer and will give it to my wife to replace her 7+. For me I just want power, and simple android and unfortunately nothing compares to Samsung for power. Might try S9+ and put simple theme on it because to me the Pixel is just having too many issues right now. Again the Note 9 is the beast of all beast, and me, I am just a simple man.

That's very true.. BUT... there is also an older generation trying to learn how to use a smart phone and at the same time are not very computer literate so that book is well worth 20 quid to that segment
 
There are some people who don't use o.k. Google, or look up things on Google.

And if you don't know what to ask.
How is anything gonna show you what you don't know.

I can understand that, but if you can navigate to eBay to buy a book. Then you can navigate to Samsung and get the full owners manual. That book kind of pisses me off, it is charging 20 bucks for free information you get from Samsung.

That's when you navigate to the Android forums and ask questions there. Or go to Samsung and download the FREE user manual. I feel like books like this prey on the pockets of techno-clueless people.

It's 2018, not 1918. Don't slough off "old people" so easily. I'm 76, and if I had a Note 9 and a week, I could probably write the book. I can also look things up on Google - there's even a Google search bar in my Firefox browser (the one I'm typing this on).

Remember, some of us "old people" are the ones who designed the technology you young kids (anyone under 60) are using today. When I was born, no one had TV - it didn't come out until 4 years later, and a simple 7" monochrome set cost about what a 55" set costs today.

And reading the book only teaches you about the Note 9 - learning about Google (or your choice of search engines - or that there is a choice) teaches you ow to look up anything you need - Note 9s, medication interactions, our anthropological history - everything. "Give a man a fish ..." Write a book on how to find the information and you help a lot more people (and probably sell a lot more books - not many people "who don't use o.k. Google, or look up things on Google" go for flagships like a Note 9). People on a fixed income either use Lifeline (and are happy to have a phone they can carry with them) or look for something like Consumer Cellular and a $10 phone. But if they can use a search engine - wow! the whole world is open to them. And everyone who doesn't know to look it up on Google can use a book like that. (How do you look up "how do I turn off notifications on a note 9"? Just leave off the "how do I" part. Their parser is pretty good.)

Thanks

But I ain't a Old Codger like you.
Heck I'm only 68.

The book as posted on Amazon is 9.99
It's nearly 500 pages.
Sure a lot of note 9 owners could learn something from it if'n they are interested.

Carry On .....
 
Was going to put the link to Samsung's download page, but it doesn't work for some reason it's loads Android central. Anyways the manual is 216 pages and doesn't cost you a single dime.
