(Rumor) Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

I have a feeling I sync more things and use a brighter screen setting. Anyway there is a thread about it here.

I left everything on except AOD is on schedule turns off 10pm and goes back on 8am 3 gmail account sync all the time and 1 hotmail, auto brightness on and battery save mode medium at 20% nothing else plus Facebook,Instagram,WhatsApp sync all the time
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

I just can't believe they jump from 6gb and 8gb flagship to 12. Either that is an high end Asian only model or just some BS rumors as of now. The price tag for that would be in the range of 1500 to 2grand. If they have trouble selling the Note right now with a $1000 price tag I can't see how they can make the s10 plus have a 50 to 100 percent price hike over the s9 plus.

Sales would totally be tanked and s9 and Note 9 signs are less than stellar. Apple with the sluggish start to the Xs due to the price as well.

I could see Samsung jumping to 12gb RAM due to S10 being the special anniversary version or like you said, it could be for Asia only. Again, that's if the specs are true.

12 GB of RAM... Wow... most PC users don't need more than 16 GB of RAM and don't see any benefits more than that. Are people running Final Cut or AutoCAD? :D

That's a bold thread title to start the post with "if".
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

Junk my *** lol. You kill me sometimes🤣 no way in hell my note9 will be considered junk. 8gb is enough for me. And besides if the s10 did get the 12gb of ram then note10 might also. If that is true.

You tell 'em Jewels! That is a pretty BOLD statement to make... an initial video write up can't be used to make that kind of determination and I wouldn't even give up the Note 9 if what I saw was correct! $1600, no s-pen, no battery info, no camera info, ???
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

Unless Samsung sends out an update to disable half of my cores and memory, my Note9 will function the same as it does right now...great.
You can't keep chasing the specs after some point.
Their focus should be on design and software. The rest will follow suit.
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

If rumours of that 4th S10 model are true then I have a sneaky suspicion that it will include the Spen and maybe even the graphene battery tech, a 6.7 inch 4k screen would need power and a screen that size just screams NOTE...
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

Yeah, as others have said, 512 GB and 8 GB RAM is hardly junk. These specs plus dual cameras and the Bluetooth S pen should be more than enough to provide at least a couple of years of performance and features.

There's one thing that I'd like to see changed when I change phones. And that's a return to high MP cameras. Currently, I'm running my Note 9 in 8 MP. For the reason that is the only aspect ratio that fills the whole screen. I hate photos with black bars on the sides.

When you pinch zoom it's evident there could be a bit more detail resolution. Apparently the new sensors go up to 24 MP which I look forward to.

24 megapixel in such a small sensor would be a mistake. If they increase the sensor size that would make a difference, however of you increase the sensor by more than a small amount you have to increase the distance between the lens and the sensor.
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

Not sure how my Note 9 will be junk just cause the S10 has more powerful specs.

I'm actually typing this from my ancient Note 3, even after 5 years it's not junk.

Battery save mode likely the dif

It definitely helps , but I've used it without and very good results like the 10hrs Sot was without
The 2 days baterry was with
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

12GB of RAM in a phone makes no sense unless the IS itself was rewritten to be terribly RAM-inefficient. There's no way you're going to run even a huge app long enough to gather up enough in-RAM data to need 12GB - or even 8GB. Even running 3 large apps at once, with all of them holding a large amount of data may get close to 8GB, but I doubt if more than a handful of people use their phones like that. It's more a sales tool than anything else.

And, as Mike said, a 25mp sensor is also a sales tool. They're making thinner phones, and you don't do that with telephoto lenses and large image sensors.

But we'll probably see 16GB RAM phone - and even 24GB RAM phones - in the future. It's like using a semi to go grocery shopping.

galaxy note 9 is a solid smartphone... I plan to use it for 4 years... and I disagree the junk part
 
Re: Our Note 9s will be junk compared to THIS!

12gb ram does sound mad for a phone so if it is true they must have something else up their sleeve, maybe a huge upgrade on the dex side to truly turn a phone into a genuine desktop or laptop replacement
