SamsungGalaxy Note 9 (Single SIM) 128 GB 6.4-Inch Android 8.1 Oreo UK Version SIM-Free Smartphone – Midnight Black

I adore the Galaxy Note series. My Note 8 has a cracked screen and is out of warranty. I originally planned to get another Note 8 as I'm nowhere near a Samsung repair place (and a new screen would cost almost as much as the Note 8 now that the Note 10 is out) but I decided to pay a little bit extra and go for the upgrade to the Note 9. Just after I did, the news came out that they weren't rolling out Android 10 to the Note 8, so I was even more delighted. I nearly splashed out on the Note 10, but in reality this more than meets my needs. I'm able to stream films to my heart's content, and use social media. The phone is almost the same overall size and weight as the Note 8, but the screen appears bigger. The battery life is much better, and it recharges quickly. The camera is superb, especially in low light, which is an improvement. I really like the stylus, though I get a bit annoyed when it "runs out of juice" even though I'm just using it to tap and scroll - it doesn't actually need battery for these functions, so I get annoyed by the notification. It does recharge very quickly. Fingerprint sensor is much better than on the Note 8, and is in a better location below the camera rather than beside it, so fewer instructions to clean the lens!! Overall, I think it is fabulous!

Not the latest Note but top quality Android10 phone at a decent price. I went from a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (which I loved but was getting slow after about 5 years) to Moto G4 plus (pretty good but starting to slow and run out of space) to this a year ago. I just love having a Samsung again and especially a Note, I use the pen frequently for DIY drawings and things to remember. It's still so fast and loads of memory free. Seems to pick up wifi and phone mast signals better than wife's Samsung A71 (though photos seem slightly more "colourful" on the A71). Fingerprint reader and face recog are fast and consistent. Love the wireless charging, NFC, headphone jack, SD card slot. Excellent call quality. My daughter went from Moto G5 to this a couple of months ago and absolutely loves it. She had wanted a smaller screen phone (has v small hands) but manages the bigger screen and can't put it down.

I don't want to speak too soon however my experience so far has been too class. My device came the next day which was a day earlier than expected.I was a bit dubious about the device because it was really cheap compared to other websites. However when it came it was all sealed and in a brand new condition.I have had a couple of Samsung phones before however moved away to another brand for 6 months before cutting my losses and moving back to Samsung.This was the 1st Galaxy Note I've owned and I love it. Highly recommend. The new One UI interface is brilliant compared to the old TouchWiz that they used before.Overall I highly recommend this and don't be put off my the cheap price, so far I've found it to be nothing other than genuine!

No

unfortunately for me indispensable.and yes have tried lots others including new 24galaxy.sorry will not be changing my note 9.and meet lots others who say same.so SAMSUNG. Release another better.if possible.

Generally pleased with this apart from 2 things. The fingerprint reader is not very reliable. The USB3 charging connection is loose and flimsy so much so that when I leave the phone to charge overnight it often fails to do so. Battery life is good. Display is very good. Camera is very good.

After falling out with Samsung's support team I swore I'd never get another Samsung phone, but in the end I fell back into their arms as annoyingly the Note 9 has one of the best batteries on the market. My S7 Edge used to last 12 hrs if I was lucky but I can now go about 48hrs before my phone dies. The camera is also great, especially in the dark. Quite frankly I don't care about any other aspect of the phone - power and storage are more than enough for any real world situations - it could have twice the processing power and gfx capabilities and I'd never even notice.

As you can see on the pictures the phone is in perfect condition except the minor damage on the left upper corner but you would expect this from a used phone, that's why it's cheaper than a new one. I think over time you could damage a new one too, like I did when I bought a brand new Note 4 and dropped it multiple times until I had the same mark on the corner :DAll the hardware works, at least everything that I've tested so far, most importantly camera, fingerprint, iris sensor .... these all work just fine so 430 pounds was definitely worth it, you also get 1 year warranty which is much better than 3 months that you usually get with other companies.If I have to tell some cons I would say no accessories included at all not even the box itself. I don't know if this applies for all their phones or mine was a specific.You only get a usb-c cable for charging, a sim opener ohh and my favourite, some HARIBO bears :DDD I instantly had smile on my face when I saw them in the package :PP
