The Note 9 gives you a quick network connection for incredibly fast streaming and downloading, so you can do more, uninterrupted. Still amazing on screen, but now the S-Pen has more power off screen. Remotely control different applications and use the S pen to capture shots from far away, scroll, and play music.

  • all the right stuff
Color: Midnight Black Size: 128GB
This is my second Note 9, first of all. My last one is still actually fully functional except for where i smashed the poor thing against the corner of a countertop trying to prevent it from falling 4 ft. which by the way, i have done so many times i cant count and this little phone just keeps chugging along. So i purchased a new one so that I can do schoolwork on the run. I was scared believe me, to buy this online. Thegadgetstore has a lot of great reviews and promised a great phone. PERFECT and in like new condition...even as its sold as renewed. Not a scratch on her, with the film still on the screen. It came with the little tab opener for the SD and SIM card slot and a fast charger. When I turned it on, it started up just like new, to set up. It charged within an hour to full. No heating or flickering screen. No bloatware. Here's a fantastic thing that happened and I hope they dont call me to say I owe them more money...the phone is listed as 128gb....and its actually 512gb. I cant believe my luck. I love this little phone...and with the only phones in the galaxy class with an S pen being the ridiculously overpriced S23 ultras....for $199 I have this wonderful phone that is fast, good quality, great camera and sound for music and watching movies on my downtime at work. The battery life is fantastic and it came with McAfee scan protection (even though i have Nord VPN). This is a great phone and I bought a tough case from UBpro that has a front screen cover that doesnt interfere one iota with screen sensitivity...and it keeps this phone encased like fort knox. Thanks the gadgetstore...this was a fantastic buy!! ... show more

  • Excellent condition and unlocked.
Color: Ocean Blue Size: 128GB
Buying used (or "renewed") phones is always a gamble, but it definitely paid off for me. The phone I received was indeed factory unlocked, and in even better condition than I was expecting. It had a very, very tiny chip on the bottom corner, a few barely visible scratches on the back, and some slight dirt/scratching around the outside of the USB-C port. The S-pen was also in good condition, and the correct color, but the tip (nib) was worn down a bit. A fast charger and cable also came in the box, both in excellent condition. While the phone didn't have anyone's account or info on it, it had already been through the initial setup. The first thing I did was a factory reset, which should ALWAYS be the first thing you do on a new phone. As for the phone itself... I couldn't be happier! After hearing that the new Moto G Stylus wouldn't have NFC, and a decidedly worse pen, I went for the Note 9. It's probably the best phone purchase I've ever made. Even though it's several years old now, it still beats the 2020 Motorola budget phones in performance for just $60 more (used). It has a headphone jack, unlike the Note 10, and I actually prefer having some empty space on the top and bottom of the screen to host the camera and speaker, as opposed to a hole-punch or notch. The battery easily lasts me 2 days at half brightness, at the highest resolution. Speaking of resolution, there are three options: 720p, 1080p, and 1440p. I haven't seen any noticeable difference in battery life between 1080 and 1440, but I also can't see any real difference in quality between the two. Both options look fantastic. The screen can get incredibly dim, and also incredibly bright. There are two speakers, one on each side of the phone. They sound good, however, only the top speaker is on the front of the phone (facing you), while the other is on the bottom (next to charging port) and can be muffled by your hand while holding the phone sideways. Tons of storage space, plus expandable storage if you have an SD card to spare. NFC (Google pay/Samsung pay) is supported, unlike most similarly priced budget phones. Wireless charging is nice and allows charging even if the USB-C port fails or breaks later on. The fingerprint scanner is quick and works great. The 12-megapixel camera is the biggest negative for this phone in 2020. Good enough for day to day use and even vacation photos, but the real draw (ha) is the pen, not the camera. Secondly, the battery can't be replaced without removing the entire front panel of the phone, which is made intentionally difficult. Not uncommon these days, but a negative nonetheless. The pre-installed Samsung apps aren't too intrusive, and I replace most of them with Google alternatives. The same can't be said for Bixby or the Bixby home. Luckily, you can disable the Bixby home screen, and you can now re-bind the Bixby button to open a different app, or open nothing at all! Facebook can't be uninstalled, but you can "disable" it, which is good enough. The S-pen is incredible. I didn't realize just how versatile the pen was before I purchased it, but I'm so glad I did. It has pressure sensitivity, a tiny button on one side of the pen, and even tilt detection! It's an active pen, so it communicates it's position and angle to the phone when held close to the screen, showing a dot or text cursor depending on the context. It can be set to disable finger presses when detected, so you can safely place your hand on the screen while drawing without causing issues! It essentially IS a drawing tablet, albeit quite small. It is far superior to a capacitive pen, like what the Moto G Stylus has, which doesn't have any of these features. The main downside is that the pen has a capacitor that needs to be charged. It's not a huge issue as it can be fully charged in 40 seconds (by simply inserting it into the phone), and lasts 15-30 minutes per charge. - Worth noting, mine did NOT come with extra pen tips (nibs), and the only way to get official replacements is to buy a new pen from Samsung (on Amazon) for $30. (Pen purchase comes with 1 additional soft tip and 1 additional hard tip). Or, you can go for a possibly less-than-quality Chinese replacement set for ~$5. If you are using a screen protector, the cheap ones should be fine. - Some sellers may be better than others. My phone came from CellGuru and they get a +1 from me. - I highly recommend a case and screen protector, as both sides of this phone are covered in glass. I also specifically recommend a glass screen protector instead of film/plastic. My film protector added lots of resistance when using the S-pen, to the point of being unusable for drawing. ... show more

  • Check the Camera
Color: Lavender Purple Size: 128GB
First phone had a thick scratch on one corner. I didn't want to chance that it was defective and I'd be blamed for a drop, so I sent it back. The replacement phone looked fine, but the camera was defective: fuzzy pictures; could not scan/read receipt/product bar codes, QR codes, or checks for deposit through apps. A couple of days after setup, I tried to use it for a mobile bank deposit - scan in check front and back using camera. Camera took blurry photos. Had to use my S7 Edge, no problem. A few days later I was trying to scan in a bar code through a merchant app that I've used many times. Again, fuzzy view, but this time the scanner didn't work at all. Could not read the bar code. Tried QR Code, no luck. The scanning line kept going up and down not detecting the code. Called Amazon and rep tried but could not fix problem. Amazon transferred me to Samsung support. Samsung rep could not find a solution either and determined the camera was probably broken or there was a settings error. She told me the phone was still under warranty. She didn’t check the IMEI or whatever its called, so I doubted that as this was refurbished, although sold as having a US warranty. But hey, I thought I'd give it a try. She gave me a ticket # to take it to [authorized repair shop] for a free fix or trouble shooting in person. Since I could not exchange it for a replacement with Amazon (only 1 replacement allowed), I decided I’d return it. The next day, I decided to check in with the repair shop to see if I might change my mind, depending on what the tech found since I was still hoping this might be a setting problem and pilot error. Taking that full body case on and off alone was enough to make me briefly consider keeping the darn thing. The [authorized repair shop] rep checked my phone settings and the camera, and determined the camera was broken. They had the replacement part. She checked the phone code with Samsung and said the phone was just out of warranty, but that she could apply for an Extended Warranty and Samsung was pretty good at accepting that. No charge to me. I debated but decided that other things might also be wrong. So, thumbs up to Samsung and the [authorized repair shop]. Thumbs down to seller that tried to pass off a phone with a broken camera. Maybe they didn’t check the camera beyond basic photo taking, but they should have and that alone should have alerted them to a problem. Love the phone, so I bought a new one from Amazon to avoid any "renewed" issues and get a real warranty. More than I wanted to pay, but good for a new Note 9. At least I hope it was new! ... show more

  • High Quality Complicated Flagship
Color: Ocean Blue Size: 128GB
Several years ago I bought a Galaxy Note 3. Great phone, never had a problem. Used it for several years. Everyone at work had an iPhone and since I work in IT, I thought I should get an iPhone so I would know how to use it. So I reluctantly shut down my Note3 and picked up an iPhone 6s. I really liked it but it was kind of small and somewhat limited- really nice phone overall though. What I liked most about the iPhone (besides the really slick GUI and the lightning cable) was that it was equipped with an NFC. I found I could use it to pay for just about everything. After a while though I grew tired of the whole iTunes thing and my eye began wandering. It landed on a MotoG7 which is really nice for a mid range phone. Runs crisply and reliably and has a lot of MOTO features that give it a very user friendly vanilla Android 9.0 experience. As of late, with the CoVid -19 onslaught, I began not really wanting to use my debit card and enter a PIN on some PIN pad at every store I went to. So I again went looking for a phone that had NFC, a good size with a vivid screen, and wireless charging. Samsung wants premium prices for their flagship phones so I looked for a phone with the features I wanted for the least amount of money. The Note9 fits the bill perfectly! I run my phones on the Ting network so I called them and they sent me a SIM immediately. I ordered this Renewed GSM Note9 and am thrilled with it. It ticks all the boxes and then some. It runs really well and has a very vivid display. The camera takes clear and brilliant pics. And... it has the NFC!! There is quite a learning curve with this phone. Samsung's OneUI overlay gives incredible flexibility, but it feels like it's trying to do too many things, too many notifications, too many reminders. But again, all of those things can be turned off and adjusted as needed. I ordered the phone on a Saturday and it arrived by Tuesday! This is significant since Amazon has been slammed by the pandemic and was showing a 3-4 week delivery window. Overall, great price, fast delivery, fantastic phone (literally looks and runs like new!!). It's good to have a Note in the stable again. ... show more
