Samsung Galaxy Note 9 vs Galaxy Note 8: Worth The Upgrade?

note8 battery suck!

You missed the dual speakers & dolby atmos!!!
It's worth upgrading from the note8.

I'm getting ready to make a purchase and was looking into whether I want to buy the Note 8 or the note 9 and this video help me make that decision the note 9 it is thank you!

Screens are not even close to the same... this is amateur hour

Note 8 for 430 or note 9 for 575?

I took the upgrade offer from and 8 to a 9 for $250. and some other perks made it almost a net no cost deal. I like the idea of having ample storage now for apps plus videos and plan to keep this one for a while. Not getting those pesky storage low warnings has been a winner for me. The camera was the other reason I opted for the upgrade and I'm glad I did. It takes great pictures and they mirror play on my Samsung tv in just great detail.

It's very much worth the upgraded, the battery is enough to upgraded.. Believe it

Yes worth it

Both are king 2019! The best phone note 8

Not worth the upgrade start talking s 6000 battery and ill change. Seems like they just put a bunch of features im really not interested in at this point. And when i benched mine in a store against a note 9 they actually were almost identical.

Bring back the IR blaster, give it 2 day battery life(with heavy usage) and then I'll call it an upgrade!

The displays are Not the same!!!!Are u serious!!!!

200g for me.. hmm..

If you have the Note 8...wait for the Note 10. The N9 is fire but I'm hearing crazy things about the S9.

Yesterday I had a problem with the game Asphalt9 I deleted the game and re-download it again please reply and thank you very much

Thought the Note 9 also was 29% brighter at max brightness?

They probably took it really slow this year because of last year's disaster and probably to focus more on the galaxy X which has been constantly delayed every year.

I got the note 8 and think the 9 is bs cause you will not be able to tell diff in speed at the level both phones are at and storage is not a prob with the 8 at all. They had to make a 9 just to get to a note 10 that is it. I love my 8 and am sticking with it. Even if I had neither I would still choose the note 8 cause the few things some ppl don’t like about it ...I love about it. N e way the note 9 is a waste of time especially if you have the note 8

yes note 9 this coming september take my money king of smartphone!!!

I upgraded on the pre-order special offer and I must say, the note 9 is a huge upgrade. The battery lasts 2x as long it seems to me.. The screen is much nicer. The sound is a huge improvement. Those are the changes that I really notice. The download speed seems a bit faster too... but the note 8 was also decent. it somehow feels better in the hand too..

I'll stick with my note 8. I think the back where fp sensor on the note 9 is ugly as hell. I love the note 8. It does everything perfectly fine and I'm not gonna pay another 1000 bucks for a little extra memory I'll never use . Also the yellow dam spen is ugly as hell also

I mean, it's worth mentioning about the phone being less slippery, but a lot of channels talking about phones being slippery or not slippery like it's a huge deal. Like how many people actually don't use a case?

I'm kind of irritated with Samsung that they decided to discontinue the Note series but continue the S series. The Note is everything the S series is and more. Why discontinue your better product? If people buying it is a problem then spend more money on marketing it like they've done with the Note 9 and cut back on production.

I’m good with my note 8 it’s an amazing phone!! 64 gb plus my external storage another 64gb since it was released l have only used 20 gb the speed is awesome!! So no thanks on the note 9 l pass.

Can you review Meizu 16th?

I think note 9 is worth the money but with note 8 drop in price, I could afford a note final and I am happy with , it was a big upgrade over s6 edge

Is there really anything else Samsung can really do to make their phones more interesting? I mean, the Note 9 seems like the pinnacle of smartphone evolution.

Actually, the displays are not “completely identical”. The Note 9 is 27% brighter, and has 32% higher contrast, compared to the Note 8.

I won't of

Can anyone tell me to choose between iphone x or note 9 ?

Na. I'll stick with my Note 8

I consider it a a 8S type of upgrade. Not a huge difference. Will wait for Note 10

I have the Note 8, not because it was a new model, but because I wanted a Samsung Note. However I'm not going to get the Note 9, just because its out. I don't need the latest phone every year.

"WOW I'M SO GLAD I WAITED A YEAR TO BUY THIS FROM MY NOTE 8!!!!!" said no one...

3 things that say.. Yes... Worth the upgrade.
1)4000mah battery
2)SD 845
3)Location of fingerprint sensor
And for a bonus, Bluetooth S-Pen

note 8 still my true love☻

I jumped ship to iPHone X...it's a great phone...the notch disappears after using the phone for a week, the face ID is half a second slower than a finger print reader, after you find said finger print reader
...still holding on to my S9+ to use as a bargaining chip for something Apple later on...Samsung builds great phones but those updates lag and am becoming more unsure of Android being less secure than iOS...

You have the money then you upgrade... you have not then don't buy.

Does removing app alot android is bad ? (from background)

I'm sticking with my samsung galaxy note 8 for now.

Everyone in here keeps sayin to wait for the S10 but the note series perfects the S series’ work. Let’s not forget the S-pen doesn’t even come with the S series and that’s a must have for some consumers (like myself). To each their own.

I really really doubt I can give you both phones and you won't be able to tell the difference on day to day use. So no it's not an upgrade. I myself have a not 8 and will not be "upgrading" just put a 256gb sd card in your note 8 and call it a day.

What if i have a galaxy s8??

I’m getting that note 9 more ram 8 gig and more storage 512 and bigger battery that’s what I dream of having and my note

Nope, not worth it. Smartphone innovation been stagnant for 2 years. Also $1k for a phone for just texting,calling, some browsing, some editing and checking emails is really not worth it. Maybe if you have note 5 then maybe but still might as well buy the note 8 as the price will significantly go down. $500 is too much for a smartphone nowadays, there are a lot of OEM to choose from.

Dude stop lying to people the note 9 is a big upgrade more internal storage bigger battery and better S pen. That's alot

often could not tell which phone was being referenced unless seeing the back view and the telltale finger sensor.

Skip the note 9.Note 8 should hold most people until the the note 10 or s10.

I'm just gonna wait for 10
My 8 is amazing
