Thats why am still holding on my note 9 . The problem is the phone being 5 years old cracked the back on the corner a bit and inner screen crack and battery getting weaker i really wish they never took out these features cuz i feel like they are really important
@@abomota7581 They really are, but they convince everyone that they aren’t needed and are “outdated”. Last I checked, phones that had headphone jacks also had Bluetooth. Why not give people options? I also miss SD card slots!
It feels like more of a downgrade, you lose: -Headphone jack -SD card slot -Extra button -Thinner and sleeker body And what you get with the 24U are 3 gigantic camera humps at the back and a hole punch in front.
I bought the s24ultra and then returned it and went back to my note 9 which i like MUCH better because the telephone sound quality on the 24 sounded very tinny and low and much inferior to the Note 9. Also the volume control on the 24 didn't always work. In case it was some control that was off I called Samsung and asked them about it on the phone, but all they could tell me was stupid stuff like make sure your volume control is turned up. When I returned it to the Verizon store where i got it the man there told me that the old phones up until Note 10 had much better sound quality than the new phones. He said that the only new phone with sound as good as my note 9 is the Sony, but Sony isn't even sold in the US. I see some other people complaining about this problem online, but not many. Maybe only some of the new s24 Ultras have the sound problem. I don't know. Anyway I returned it and I'm happy with my note 9.
Now my friend gave me her Note 9 that she got refurbished from Samsung but hardly ever used, so now I have TWO Note 9's! I guess I'll use the second one as my 2nd phone. For that I had been using the even older S8+.
@@MrLanternland i have note 9 ...I will use it till it dies. I don't care about all new feature of S24 Ultra...still the same tech touch screen etc...I will rather wait if they come up any new tech like mind control etc..lmao
@@ambiven10 Or even REAL advancements like satellite communication for emergencies instead of their stupid "AI" so I can have a fancier desktop or draw circles around things! I always use plain flat black for my desktop background. Anything else disrupts the visibility. Also I mainly use my phone, oddly enough, as a phone, and the reviewers go on endlessly about camera nuances and the colors of the thing, but never how good the phone sound is, and the speakerphone too.
N9. Best, most complete phone ever made. I wouldn't recommend buying one at this point. But if you already have one, you know that it's still more than usable.
Watching this vid on my Samsung galaxy note 9 hopefully having it for a couple more years before upgrade Maby until the note 26 or 27 something 🤔. If I can wait that long.
If you can’t afford a new Samsung product, always remember that other brands are amazing at values for price for performance, make sure to check other brands too, they are nice options 😊👍
I bought a s24 ultra and it arrived today. My note 9 is rocking still hard after 5.5 years of use. I will keep using it in harsh work conditions to keep the s24 pristine.
The most striking benefit to me (apart from all he gimmicky AI) is how responsive the s24 ultra is, so much smoother, also the s-pen drawing experience is more realistic because of the fast response. I would only recommend upgrading if you feel your note 9 is dying or you have money to spent anyway.
I changed my battery of note 9 and mother board..costed me approx Rs9k or $ 107 ..i had 6 gb 128 variant,after changing mother board,I got luckily, 8fb 512 gb.Previouly it used to hang little,but its running amazing smooth.i didnt want to put $1000 for new phone,I love my note 9
For the Note 9 owners, I would recommend them to atleast upgrade to S21 Ultra, because the S21 Ultra is the cheapest flagship Samsung phone to get in 2024, there’s no difference between S21 Ultra and S24 Ultra at all to justify the price difference, the speed difference is subtle nowadays. And S21 Ultra is still getting updates Edit: typo fix, adding “Edit:” to the down of the comment
S23 ultra is the one I'd recommend: 1.Better battery life than the s21 (by far). 2.Same chipset for all versions of the s23. 3. S21 will stop getting software updates next year. S23 still has until 2027.
@@alexisaguirrevazquez7900The battery of the S24 Ultra will no longer be like new in a year, because it will lose its full capacity over the years, and during that time it will be increasingly difficult to find a replacement battery that is almost at full capacity. Few people today have a cell phone for 7 years, that long.
@@WololoWololo2 I know, but it's a case of getting what you pay for given that you'll be updated for 3 more years vs 1 and just have a better experience too(especially if you have the exynos version).
The samsung note 9 was still really pretty impressive in comparison to the s24 if you ask me, I am about to buy a new phone, so I am always glued to your updates 😂😂, sorry I am always having a hard time making choices of phones to buy, anyway thanks for your day to day updates, actually you are top 3 best youtuber when it comes to phone comparisons, keep it up 👆
Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is still good in 2024 expandable storage, plenty of Samsung Galaxy 9 note cases and replacement battery 🔋 on Amazon, Zero Lemon Charging Case for Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Samsung Galaxy fe20 5G is simple upgrade for Samsung Galaxy Note 9 if you're on a budget right now, Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra or Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
Hi Matthew! Thanks for reviewing the note 9 again! I am at Japan now for surgery but I had fun replacing the battery and getting the Samsung's original s view flip cover! I love the design too and the performance is still great!
Typing this on my S24 Ultra. The Vivid updated dropped today and the colors on my Note 9 are still much better. That fingerprint sensor was much better than the current one. The main difference is obviously the battery and camera has come a long way since then. They're offering me 400$ for my Note 9 trade in and I've struggled to send to back to them. Even considering refunding the s24 ultra and getting a 21 ultra foe half the cost
Yeah, on Samsung's website they are offering $200 for my Note 9. I just can't bring myself to getting rid of it. SO many good times and $200 is a slap in the face because it has features that the S24 Ultra doesn't that are very useful. Not to mention, I paid $1,000 for my Note 9. I found it easier to pay that back then than a similarly spec'd S24 Ultra for around $1,400 today. Many of the features that I will use on the Ultra are still very usable on my Note 9. That pin hole is a lot better than previous more recent Samsung phone's but it still catches my eye occasionally. NOTHING compares to Note 9's distraction free screen! I hate the holes on any part of my screen but I guess after awhile you get used to it.
I was thinking of grabbing a Note 9 for a Outdoors while fishing or whatever type of phone for $180 refurbished from Amazon but naw. I had the Note 10+ & I couldn't see the display outdoors here in SE Texas. When I went to the S22 Ultra? I was shocked! I've never had a single issue with Samsung phones but that 22 Ultra was way brighter than I was expecting! Now this S24 Ultra? Well, it's just a beast! When using it, it's like your only using a portion of it's power. Reboots twice as fast as my 22 Ultra also.. Plus I got $800 for my S22 Ultra & paid the $400 difference in cash for my 512g version 🤟
A phone I have never seen on this channel (if you ever wanted to get it and show) is the standard base model s20 5g (not the fe or the ultra). I feel like it went under the radar. Incredible phone.
It doesn’t get any updates anymore, you can always look for other options from other brands too, Xiaomi 14 Ultra is twice the price of S20 Ultra yet its totally worth it
@@kodyrandom Always switch device to more updating one. Avoids from having security vulnerabilities, and you can get more fixes in OS / UI. Making the device way more optimized, smooth and secure
@@WololoWololo2 Correct, and viruses and issues can occur easier without updates, however people cannot afford all phones and have to make due with phones even if the phone cannot update. This channel is great because it helps people that need a phone find something affordable that is still a great device. I think the s20 might have security updates for a little while longer as well
5:54 the S24 would stop scrollin on that video "I had to pause and rewind this scene 10 times" also when he said "jerkisness" what are the odds! Lmao🤣 Love this comparison video tho. Just subscribed!
YES ITS TIME TO UPDATE! Maybe not a s24, but wait until spring to see if the s23 go down in price. Otherwise get the s21. However you can still used the note 9 as a spare gaming phone to save battery on your main phone.
@@Edgar876 He said to use it for gaming? Read the goddamn title. That’s what it is for, gaming phone for cheap price with insane specs almost matches the newest flagship, its the best cheapest phone also for everything aswell, its such an beast, can kill your S24 Ultra if you ever bought it, Samsung is such an scam, also Poco F6 Pro uses Snapdragon chipsets so they way way better than Exynos chips from old flagships. Instead of getting old Exynos flagship, he should consider getting Snapdragon Xiaomi / other brands aswell. Exynos truly sucks a lot
@WololoWololo2 I would like to get the poco 6 phone. However, I meant if you already have the note 9, keep it and get the newer phone, but used the note 9 as a spare phone for games to save the battery on the new phone. But thanks for your comment. I would like to check out the poco 6 phone
The lack of security updates should really be the one reason for an upgrade. If my Note20 Ultra still gets update past 2025, I will continue using it. Unfortunately, I don't see Samsung supporting it past 2024/2025. 😔. I Gave up my Note9 when security updates ended. Did the same thing with my Note 4, 2 and original Note. We all know what happened to the Note 7, so I didn't have to keep it that long.
Finally upgraded my Note 9 cuz the s-pen broke and screen cracked last month. Found a great deal $757 for a new 512gb S24 Ultra (without trade-in) from Samsung shop! I love that we finally have a phone with rectangle screen again! I hate rounded corners. The only thing I'm getting used to is the the weight. It's 30 grams heavier than the Note 9 and I can feel it.
Nobody should be hanging onto older phones like the 9 unless they only use it for calling, texting, music player, watching videos or doing anything that doesn't link their information to the phone. Can't even do that if you're using the android phone unless you're using a bs gmail that serve no other purpose. A reasonably priced phone that's not too old is now important because of everything we do online. The older your device is the less secure it will be. I'd still stay away from the 24 if money can go to something more important because even though I could get one, I'm among those who prefer to stay two generations or 3 behind because after the note 10 there was no point in getting the latest anymore.
@@MrLanternland don't know from personal experience she even though I'm skeptical because companies warn us just to scare us into buying their newer devices, a phone with no security updates has to be more vulnerable than one that receives it. Then again, this is where I think that a phone that received a security update should be good for a while before it's just a brick. Typically when the phones is too old to be of any use it no longer access apps so you know that you're behind. You'll see that apps often ask you to update when they've worked out a bug or added features+security. I truly believe that once your phone refuses to do that it's time to move on, but we long as it does everything and gets security updates (which most of us don't always pay attention to) because most of us don't think we have much to worry about being hacked for) it's fine to me. That's probably why various apps also have their own security added just in case, banking apps for example.
I Just dont like notches and punch hole cameras, it's fail design. Waiting for in display camera or return of classic design. Unit than still going strong with note 9 💪😁
I was looking at the S24's today... If theyre only this much better Ill prob just hang onto my Note 9 for a bit longer. I dont really game on it or do anything that would require the camera upgrades. I just take pics to post stuff on FB market place mainly. The cpu seems faster for sure but I can manage being a tad bit slower to save the $$$$. Ill put the money into my 65 Mustang or crypto to get a return on it rather than spending it on a new phone that it looks like I dont really need. Thanks
S22 ultra here but man, i miss my Note 9 every Day! Jack, SD card, Iris scanner and back fingerprint, notification Led. Super skinny perfect, beautiful form in my favourite violet color. Unfortunately i drowned it.
I’ve been watching for a while now I love how the channel has grown I just wish we could see content with 1+ & Nord I for one would like to see more Chinese brands.
Man I still have the note 9 . When I dropped it and cracked the screen I was so sad. So at the time that happened I was forced to upgrade to the s22U. Now I traded that in for an unlocked s24U. The note 9 and the s24U are the best androids I've ever owned.
Does anyone know if phone repairers can polish out the small round bust the busted spot is a small dot like shape than has the crack line? Can someone help!! I don't know what to do yet.
the thing i never liked about android in general is the practice of high end phones getting a little bit of updates while at the same time making crappy entry level phones with the latest updates in the future with much worse performance because of specs showing that they could have giving the high end phones more updates. but they gotta sell more phones.
I think The Note 9 is still a big deal in 2024. Finding a 2018 phone with OIS that shoots 40k@60fps, that's no joke. The difference in the photo quality isn't that significant, if you ask me, and with a post editing, photos from the Note 9 can match up. The note 9 is a really good phone in my opinion.
Is it just me or when I try out the S24 Ultra and Fold 5 camera at the store the lighting and quality looks the same or even worse than my Note 9? Not hating it or anything but they don't feel much of an upgrade.
Could you please reply to me? I really need to know this: Do you have VOLTE feature on the Galaxy Note 9? I don't have it at all!! Please help me! Thank you Bro.
When I bought my Galaxy note 9 512/8, I thought a few years later I would buy a phone of at least 2 terabites, and Rams must have exceeded 32 GB 😂 but now after 5 years I buying S24 Ultra which is the king of android with same capacity of 512gb and only 12GB of ram. This quick comparison will show how Note 9 was and still is great!!! I still have and it does work well but the basty game of receiving updates was the reason yo change, otherwise, no need to change the lovely Note 9 at all ❤
Just upgraded to Watch7 does not work with Android 10. No upgrade for snapdragon. Might need to upgrade now. Shame, my Note9 is awesome and in mint condition. Can get $300 on upgrade.
On S24 Ultra display looks pale and has huge round area with essentially "dead pixels", sound on it comes shrill on highs (although slightly louder), photos looks oversharpened and artificial, you loose like half of great features of Note9 and it's few times more pricey. -Yeah - "Tough choice!"... 😉🤣
Bro can you make video iphone 1x vs s23 ultra 1x camera comparison. I noticed s23 ultra 1x feel like ultra wide 0.8. Because of Samsung camera angle is worst 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Note 9 here im going to 2025 with this phone its that old Swiss army knife 6 years old still can't smoke it😂 I come from the Nokia brick days😂 its a phone what do you people want although I do appreciate the new greats ones that I will eventually get
@@WololoWololo2 what if I can afford anyphone I want but get more satisfaction at being sensible with my 💰 technology is great not throwing money away because newtech comes out that is basically useless to what I already have even greater😎
@@cornellmiller2315 Good question. The thing is They never do that 😂😎 This is why Xiaomi is growing the fastest as only best brand it got lots of fans using their phones for best technology and best possible software. Xiaomi is always consumer friendly company, and Xiaomi 14 Ultra will come out in Global too, this year in March month, giving consumers the best possible value and experience from your products for the cheapest price possible is always the best move.
@@cornellmiller2315 No way my comment got deleted, screw this, you will learn when Xiaomi beats Samsung and Apple in anything despite not being in USA, I have lots to tell you but RU-vid doesn’t allow me, good luck becoming a “tech nerd”
