WOW!..Difference between Samsung galaxy note8 and galaxy note9 with its prices...this would help you know which one is better when purchasing one
Galaxy Note 9 was unveiled by Samsung at
the start of the month with this updated
phablet offering some supercharged internals.
The Note 9 features up to 8GB of RAM and a
whopping 512GB of internal storage in
addition to a new, and faster, processor from
the South Korean tech giant.
However, the phablet retains an incredible
resemblance to its predecessor, the Galaxy
Note 8, meaning some of the differences
between the two can be hard to spot at first
glance.
But Express.co.uk has put together a list of
everything new the Note 9 brings to the table
and whether it is worth paying the extra
money over the Note 8.

You would be forgiven for mistaking the Note
9 for its older sibling at first glance - the two
devices share an aluminium frame sandwiched
by two panels of glass.
But there are some minor changes with the
Note 9 bringing a slightly bigger Infinity
display than was present on the Note 8.
The new phablet features a 6.4-inch screen
while the Note 8 comes in at 6.3-inches.
Panels on both phones look stunning with
Samsung's Super AMOLED technology working
wonders.
Colours on both devices are clear and
blacks, in particular, appear extremely deep.
Other than the slightly larger display, the
most notable difference on the Note 9
addresses complaints fans had with its
predecessor.
The fingerprint sensor has now been moved to
below the camera sensor rather than sitting
alongside it - as found on the Note 8.
It's worth noting that, before you buy either
device, these are big phones and should only
be considered if you feel you manage their
giant size.

THE PERFORMANCE
At the unveiling of the Galaxy
Note 9, Samsung was not shy about touting
the brand new internals of the phablet as a
reason to pick it up.
The Galaxy Note 9 comes rocking a
Exynos 9810 chip in European regions - such
as the UK - while the US model comes with a
Snapdragon 845 processor.
Both first appeared in the Galaxy S9 and S9+
when they launched back in March.
This allows for the fastest performance on a
Note ever.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy Note 8 features a last-
generation Exynos 8895 chip or a Snapdragon
835 depending on which region it is purchased
in.
Although the processors present in the newer
Note 9 are faster and more efficient, neither
sets of chips are slow by any stretch of the
imagination.
While opening applications and browsing the
internet may be a snappier experience on the
Note 9, both phablets are incredibly speedy
and extremely capable.
The Note 9 comes in two varieties; one
features 6GB of RAM while another comes
with 8GB.
Greater amounts of memory can lead to faster
performance overall and apps to retain their
status in the background if they are
minimised.
The Note 8 touts 6GB of RAM so it is
incredibly comparable to its successor on a
memory front.
Overall, both phones are going to offer
blisteringly fast performance with the Note 9
having a slight edge over the older hardware
thanks to its refined processor and larger
amounts of RAM in its more expensive model.
One of the biggest reasons to pick up the
Note 9 is because of its gargantuan
battery however.
The 4,000mAh pack inside the new phablet
promises all-day battery life for the most
intensive of users.
This is something that makes the device
incredibly appealing over the Note 8 that only
came with a 3,300mAh battery.

THE FEATURES
The Galaxy Note 9 introduces radical changes
to the S Pen accessory that has become
incredibly popular with Samsung fans.
The S Pen in the newest version of the phablet
features Bluetooth functionality that allows it
to perform a variety of functions with the
press of a button.
In addition to allowing the user to take photos
remotely from the accessory itself, Note 9
owners are also able to control music
playback and proceed to the next slide in
presentations using the S Pen.
Such features are not present in the Note 8
that offers a more basic functionality for the
stylus.
And the Note 9 also makes using Samsung
DeX cheaper and more simple than ever.
Instead of having to purchase a dock to allow
users to take advantage of the PC-like
features, all Note 9 owners need is a USB-C to
HDMI cable to take advantage of the
functionality.
The Galaxy Note 9 looks very similar to the
THE CAMERA
The Note 9 takes its camera system from the
Galaxy S9+ but refines it with the help of
artificial intelligence.
This means the phablet has the "Dual
Aperture" system that allows the main camera
sensor to open and close based on lighting
conditions.
Such a feature means low-light snaps retain
more detail and are clearer than ever.
The camera is also able to detect flaws in any
images that are taken and will prompt users to
re-take shots in certain instances.
The Note 9 gets a refreshed camera
Note 9 is able to detect if a subject has
blinked at the moment a photo was captured
for instance.
The new camera addition means pictures are
more likely ooze clarity than on other
Samsung devices.
But the Note 8 is no slouch in the camera
department either.
Although the phablet lacks the Dual Aperture
system and AI features in its successor, the
two sensors are very capable of taking
stunning photos.
In fact, when Express news reviewed the Note
8 last year we were extremely impressed with
the two 12-megapixel sensors.
So although the newer Note 9 trumps the Note
8 in the camera department the difference in
clarity may be closer than you think.

THE PRICE
The Galaxy Note 9 is one of the most capable
Android phones around, but those wanting one
will have to pay up.
Samsung's latest phablet comes in two
models; one comes with 128GB of storage and
6GB of RAM costing £899 while another
version features a whopping 512GB of storage
and 8GB of RAM that retails for £1,099.
Meanwhile, Samsung is currently selling the
Note 8 for a discounted price of £769.
However, you can pick up the last-generation
phablet for much cheaper than that at other
outlets online.
Amazon is currently selling the Note 8 for
£558 through a third-party distributor.
Such a price cut makes the Note 8 incredibly
appealing for those who do not want to pay
extremely high prices for a smartphone or do
not need the latest and greatest features.
And while the Note 9 boasts impressive
functionality and specifications, it is certainly
more of an iterative phone than one
concerned with pushing the boundaries of
what a smartphone can do forward.
