everyone we're checking out the Galaxy
Note 9 this is Samsung's latest
smartphone essentially these are the two
new colors ocean blue and lavender
purple one of the perks about the ocean
blue is that the style S Pen doesn't
match the color actually it's a
contrasting yellow color which is kind
of neat but before we dive into the S
Pen and other features of the phone
let's get down to some specs first it's
got these snapdragon 845 that's tuned a
little better with this new water
cooling system to help it with
performance with gaming and that's
because the Fortnight is actually going
to be available on s9 devices and no.9
devices first before I guess it launches
on Android devices later this year it's
got the Snapdragon 835 comes with six
gigs of ram or eight gigs and the
storage options for those respective
sizes are 128 gigs and 512 gigs of
storage so that's a lot of space and of
course there's a micro SD card as well
and Samsung is pushing out a 512 mega
micro SD card slot later this year so
you're gonna be able to use a terabyte
of storage on this phone which is pretty
insane also in here is a four thousand
milliamp hour battery so you get tons of
battery life power I will have to put it
through its paces to really see how long
it lasts but we're confident this should
last you definitely more than a day
probably even two days while we're on
the front you still get that infinity
display it's 6.4 inches now so it's
slightly bigger than last year's Note 8
still with a quad HD resolution quite
sharp bezels are ever so slightly
thinner which is where we think they've
got that slight size adjustment and it
truly is a beautiful AMOLED screen
another new killer feature of the s-pen
is Bluetooth functionality you might
think you need to charge it but actually
there's a super capacitor built-in so 40
seconds of leaving it nd you know 9 like
this will actually keep it charged for
30 minutes but what is this Bluetooth
functionality let you do there's
actually a wide range of things so using
the button you can customize things the
Samsung setting Galaxy Note nines
to do different things like say if I
press and hold this it'll launch the
camera and now I can take a selfie so
for example if it's on a tripod or other
things are for example scrolling through
presentations changing your playlist so
if you're walking around your house you
just have this in your pocket or this
you know on your ear you can change
tracks by pause music let's just take a
quick look at how that looks so we're
gonna double tap Oh actually we're gonna
press and hold this
now launches the camera now if I double
tap in this we got selfie and take a
shot now it's double tap
and I'm gonna move this to this take
that camera set up on the back a little
different from the s9 but it's actually
quite similar they've got dual lo Iast
jewel 12 megapixel sensors and it's got
that variable aperture that we saw in
the s9 earlier this year but what's cool
about the camera on this phone however
is that it has scene detection which is
kind of similar to what we've seen in
phones like the LG G 7 the Huawei P 20
essentially if you take the camera and
point it at say food or flowers or
people it should be able to recognize
about 20 different scenes and it does so
pretty quick right now I pointed it at
the macaroons and it shows me food so
what it's going to do is not what we've
seen it do on other fun hopefully other
phones tend to blow out the colors this
phone they claiming that they can adjust
contrast white balance color to make it
a much more of a magazine style photo
that they want you to share immediately
instead of using a filter so we're gonna
test how that works so far in our test
it actually looks quite good it's not
over saturated or anything like that so
one of the other cool things about the
camera is that actually when you take a
photo of say someone blinking in a group
the camera will alert you on the side
saying oh someone might have blinked you
might want to take that photo again and
the same applies if it notices that
there's a smudge on the camera on the
front or the back in terms of the type C
port it's not only used for charging you
can actually also plug HDMI type-c cable
into an HDMI output port and connect it
to a computer and that way you don't
actually need the Dex pad or Dex station
that they released earlier this year
plug it into a monitor and basically you
get that Samsung Dex Android tablet
experience or Android desktop experience
I should say which makes it basically
makes it much easier to use with sort of
a keyboard and mouse alternatively
though the screen when you plug it in
turns into a mousepad so you can
actually just use the screen as a mouse
and when it comes time to sort of input
text into a particular browser or
something like that the keyboard will
pop up so you can just pick up your
phone and keep typing or as well keep
using the phone while you're using the
screen sort of as a dual
experience of course to get the same
Samsung flagship features ip68 water
resistance headphone jack fast wireless
charging and actually Samsung's coming
out with a do pad wireless charging
thing where you can charge two devices
not just two phones but say a Galaxy
sport wearable and a phone as well when
a hundred percent sure about pricing
just yet but the Galaxy Note 9 in both
colors will be the same price it'll
start going on sale for pre-orders on
August 10th with official retail
beginning on August 24th we'll get more
to you soon about the note 9 so stay
tuned to digital tones calm
