letting go a white MNML case for RM50 if anyone's interested.

brand new untouched, unused still in box.

not my type of color so im letting it go nod.gif

https://mnmlcase.com/products/samsung-galax...ote-9-mnml-case


14.99 after convert is RM62 + havent include shipping fees yet if you were to buy.

so my price of RM50 is worth it

quality is different from BaseUs or any clones out there as this case brand goes through quality control and wont send defected case. nod.gif

this case is smoother and less rough from the RM15-RM20 BaseUS thin case.

Only one word for SP. Use a cheapo one so that you can change as you like. No TG is perfect on the Note 9 dual to its curved display.

Thats what Im using too. Any SP/TG on the Note 9 will lift after sometime, no matter what the seller claims. So a cheapo Rm10 it is. So I can change every 1 and 1/2 months.

Guys, quick question. I am about to buy a Note 9 from a forumer here. He claimed that he got it from his dad's company.

My question is, how do i know if its a telco set or not? What should i check or look?

Btw, it doesnt come with receipt. When i register the warranty, do i need the receipt?

Its gonna be my first Android phone, Finanly jumping ship from my iphone X

For me whitestone dome or tmax glass is the only tempered glass you should buy for note 9.

Or if you prefer high quality SP with warranty, clearplex protection pro is the best. The material is even better than mobile outfitters.

i dunno

SME's instant rm400 rebate only lasts till 28 Oct

after that will go back to the usual RRP, that should make the online price higher as well

i checked around it seems only SME offers discount for Note 9 at the moment, in SG they still ask for 1398 SGD ooch

Note 9 at current online prices definitely cheaper than XR. Whether it's better or not depends on what you want from the phone as XR processor still the same with XS which is top of the industry right now.

IMO if you're not the type who likes to tinker around with the phone then stick with iOS as the change to android will surely come with a learning curve and inconceniences.

Have to look why it depreciate. Not because bad quality, but because too many promos. It's a great phone, maybe Samsung wants a lot of people know this Note series. Marketing strategy.

its largely due to fierce competition from chinese brands

from there we also know Samsung's fat profit margin by setting the RRP

not even P20 Pro can have that kind of discount margin even by now

Kinda agree. Price competition to stay big in terms of market share. I think its a good thing going forward. Only apple is going backwards (lol).

I was looking to get a Note 9 from maxis with contract price, cause my work pays my phone bill.

Maxis 188 plan, Note 9 cost RM 2299.

I see on Shopee it is RM 2685.

How does the price drop so fast?

In the remark stated that box will be unsealed for warranty purpose. Is that necessary?

I did twice for whitestone dome. But for tmax, I messed up during the first time, so since that I always asked seller to help installed for me.

It's not that complicated, just make sure you are in a dust free environment, stay far from windows or place with direct sunlight, and u put the phone on a perfectly flat table.

My company pays rm250 max bill, via monthly claim..

My bill is rm227, Zerolution360 + share 128. So the monthly bill, covers the phone n data/ calls package

For phone, i can buy rm3000 worth of phone, every 2 years, again via claim.

man, im so tempted to get this phone. was thinking of the p20 pro but at this price it's quite attractive.

I just feel that the note 9 might be too big already. of course i'm coming from the phone 6s so it would be a huge jump for sure.

I have both. Pocophone UI is simple but note 9 is also smooth maybe the animation speed could be different.

I will choose note 9 over my pocophone.

That guy always appear . Using my s8+, note 8 and waiting my note 9 rhinoshield to arrive. Drop my phone countless time even on purpose not even a crack of scratch. If he dare me to drop from shoulder height and didnt crack he will give me his note 9 i will do it.

Maybe as they said, too many preinstalled app running on the background. When you find some comparison review on YouTube, you will find note 9 is a bit laggy compare to poco. But anyway...I guess I will go for note 9 because of the s pen..hehe

Its a bit disapointing for note 9 to have such lagging..
I still have my galaxy note 3, and the ashalt 8, 9 and extreme runs smoother than my note 9..
Not to mention the huawei nova 2i also better.
I prefer using my note 3 or nova 2i to play these game than my note 9..

Unless it is my unit having software/hawrdware issue.

I have both note9 and HW Nova 2ui too
Unlike you, the note9 is way above the 2ui in every aspect
I suspect your Note9 could be problematic
Why don't you demo both at Samsung center and seek their solution??
It make no sense the Note 9 is poorer and laggier ??

Maybe note 9 is smoother than Nova, but only for the first 3 months. If you use longer period, you will start to experience lag. If use more than a year, it become bad to worse to be frank.

Too many duplicated apps, how to become smooth?
Google Store & Samsung Store
Bixby & Google Assistant
Google Keep & Samsung Note
Google Photo & Samsung Gallery
And the list goes on

That's too much really

yes!

because its like if you disabled certain apps

you will never know if the OS will keep pinging to see if that specific process is "alive" or not.

hence eating more battery than it needs to.

i guess its safe to disable apps like LinkedIn or Chrome, Facebook IF you dont use it

but i just dont laugh.gif

since Android is smart enough to utilize the RAM when it needs to.

Maybe note 9 is smoother than Nova, but only for the first 3 months. If you use longer period, you will start to experience lag. If use more than a year, it become bad to worse to be frank.

Too many duplicated apps, how to become smooth?
Google Store & Samsung Store
Bixby & Google Assistant
Google Keep & Samsung Note
Google Photo & Samsung Gallery
And the list goes on

That's too much really

Have been using Samsung for a long while, never experience any lagging. I realise a lot of times it's the users, not the tools. 😋

to those who keep asking if its ok to buy with the 2.6k / 2.7k. go for it while the price is low. it will be back to normal later on and then you will regret it.

then, there are those concerned with the phone's VALUE. but in reality, they are concerned with the PRICE.

VALUE is what 1 put into it. via its usage, the apps installed, etc etc....

price is described in RM or USD etc..

price is part of the value... duhh

Lag is very subjective imo. Some people are more sensitive to it than others. I think that there's a certain expectation when you pay such high prices for phones these days but as hardware progresses the performance difference between high end and low end is getting less and less.
The differentiators now are the camera performance, screen quality (samsung still the best imo) and other factors like battery and build quality.
So when you compare a pocophone and note 9 you think wah this phone half the price yet as smooth or smoother than the note 9. It's not wrong actually cause the pocophone internals are definitely on par or better.
They cut corners in camera but this is also subjective as some users might have lower expectations or do no need the "best" camera as the main purpose is social media.

you do know that Samsung have to purposely reduce the Exynos performance in order to match up with SD's spec/benchmark or else US customers will make noise laugh.gif

its their own chipset, obviously they have to make it to be more optimized and powerful for their own phone

just like how Apple's chipset is fully optimized for their iphones.

Box no need to be unsealed to register... reason to unseal is for them to inspect the item

u may see some advertise sealed box, some unboxed to register warranty. AFAIK, seller need to take the warranty sticker inside the box to submit to SME for incentive claim. my guess is those 'sealed' box are most likely resealed after unsealed as some dealers have the seal sticker.

Brader. I'm talking about optimization from devs la what Samsung.

You wanna compare company optimization ah, until Samsung manufactures their own OS then we compare with Apple la. Skin on top of Google OS is miles apart from what Apple has achieved.

After U12+ launch and read some reviews, the battery i quite dissapointed beside the touch sensitive button issue.
That why im decided to jump ship to samsung and particulaly for note9 due to battery. And so far N9 is not dissapointed me. Just i hope our market will get SD version instead of Exynos.

Hello there Note9 veterans, just want to ask y'all experienced note users here if anyone of you have used any CAD reader or viewer app? Cause I need to view CAD drawings most of the time during work and on the go to note down comments.

i'm using dwg fastview. but a recent app got some kind of bug when zoom in. sometimes its working sometimes its not. most of the files i open is more than 50mb files. its work fine when it should too... just live with the lil bug for now.

not really no.

cause it doesnt seem like a big invesment to me.

if you're concern with the cost, then always wait for a year or 2 before buying the "latest" model lor.. then u will be less sad

And i have never used a smart watch before so i told myself this is a good chance to actually try using it.

Well, so far i liked the phone, serves me well.

Though I actually didnt bother checking what is the latest price/offer, I'm happy with my purchase.

It is a Samsung.
It has been always like that.
Plus I am happy with my purchase.
Does not even bother one bit.
I have been a long time Note user and the S Pen has been a tool for me for so many years ald.
Ald tried Apple Pencil with my iPad Pro but it is just cannot beat the portability of the Note.
Screen off memos, sign documents, cropping etc.
No other phone in the world that have these kind of features.
Plus the Note is designed for those who really use the pen.
Not for the average joes.
Even Erica Griffin from YouTube have been using the Note for very long and she use it to the max.

Plus Samsung is repaying us with free items and gifts on Samsung Pay and Samsung Members and that actually is giving back our investment to them back to us.
That is why some of us did not even complain about the price drop.

Bought a Ringke Onxy and a $9.99 TG (not glue type) from Amazon whn I'm in US last week. TG not cover whole screen but it does cover the viewable screen, decided to fill a return. Amazon so generous, they issued full refund and asked me to discard it without shipping the TG back to them. Of course I did not discard it because I still rugi RM5 due to exchange rate.

P/s: the TG is a matrix dot and sensitivity quite good after change the sensitivity level till max.

This is weird actually.
I have been going to my nearest Samsung SC and it has been a excellent service from me.
It is weird when you said they have been holding your phone for too long.
My experience with Note8 battery drain warranty claim has been excellent.
At first they will try to reflash the firmware, if failed they will proceed to the next step.
I tell them that my Note8 is hot and lag but in reality it is not, they did not ask much and replace my mobo, battery, charging connector mobo and wireless charging coil for free.
And the best part all completed within 2 hours.
When I got the phone, the battery life is excellent surpassing my expectations.
And the Samsung SC call me back 5 days later to check how is the phone and everything.
I think no other smartphone manufacturer goes beyond that level of efficiency.
Even Apple service center experience I had is way below that what I get with Samsung.

Until now can't figure out what's the problem? sweat.gif normally if they can't figure out they'll just change the mobo etc. Maybe you just request new unit from them lah easier. Taking too long like this isn't something that should happen when you pay an arm and foot for the phone.

Phones are like all other tech gadgets, are perishables. They got a limited lifespan.

If u want cheap phones, there's always pocophone and alike.

Unfortunately the whole launch is pretty much the Mate 10/Mate 10 Pro all over again rclxub.gif

Great hardware that is marred by unfortunate decisions such as no water/dust resistance and stereo speakers, and not to mention the pricing - I mean the Mate 10 4/128 costs nearly as much as a Note 9 6/128, and worst still you cannot even use normal microSD cards (it uses a proprietary NM card) sweat.gif

There is, but you cannot stow them away inside the phone Galaxy Note style (kinda defeats the purpose to be honest) and you must buy the pen separately icon_idea.gif

Likely requires batteries too (in a similar fashion as Surface Pen) icon_idea.gif

Unfortunately the whole launch is pretty much the Mate 10/Mate 10 Pro all over again rclxub.gif

Great hardware that is marred by unfortunate decisions such as no water/dust resistance and stereo speakers, and not to mention the pricing - I mean the Mate 10 4/128 costs nearly as much as a Note 9 6/128, and worst still you cannot even use normal microSD cards (it uses a proprietary NM card)  sweat.gif
*
you talking bout Mate 20 Pro?

got IP68 ah, but only the Pro variant

NM card, it will be a propriety standard for years to come, the cost definitely won't be competitive due to lack of economy of scale and openess of the standard

Still off topic, the Mate 20 Pro design looks hybrid of IPX and S9 design.

It's like Ur TV, monitor, slim and near to bezel less, and now the trend, those Tv and monitor with notch ..
How is tat attractive? Especially when it's turn off, it's got bigger than the chin.. look at pixel 3

Samsung had been mocking the notch on latest pixel3
What will fans said if they too follow the trend and go notch too on future phones?

Just like how Google mocked iPhone for losing the headphone jack + having a notch and then proceeded to do the same things the following year. sweat.gif even if there's some people who wil be turned off by that but as consumers there's nothing much we can do eh.

as long as the notch comes with equal bezel like iphoneX, i dont think anybody will complain. though i doubt it since they have so many camera and scanners at the top part

I personal been using rhinoshield long time ago and is good currently using carbon fiber rhinoshield. Make in taiwan not china. Price around 150 bucks

Or tech21 evo depends what colour ur phone since mine is black I go evo black. This both case 11ft drop protection. Still waiting from amazon. Price around 200

U need to seeee YouTube for more casing or if u want go budget friend ringke and spigen is good tho but I personal find them boring design and flimsy

I am quite confident that Samsung will not follow the notch way or removal of hp jack.

The leaks so far of S10 do not mention any leak.

If think about it no reason to remove the hp jack. Replace with what? nothing! none of the companies who have done this 'innovation' actually have a better replacement.

Looking at the just announced Huawei Mate 20 series pricing, can’t help but wonder was it the reason of Note 9 price crash.

The XR is definitely not worth the money unless hardcore ios user but no budget for XS. Processor aside, a 720p screen in 2018 at that price point is really not gojng to cut it. sweat.gif

Especially with note 9 going for basically a bargain price right now.

If you jenis confirm change phone every year, yes. If you jenis yang hold on to your phone until rosak (which could take up to a few years) then no.

You will still need to pay an upgrade fee ro upgrade. The upgrade fee for note 9 is about 1.4k. Plus ur 1.5k yearly payment,basically u can get a new one already

Oh I dint know about Upgrade Fee, but from what I've read now it is reduced every quarter and free on month 24 onward. That means if 12 months, it wouldn't be 1.4k anymore to upgrade.

I guess kena study whether it still worth the trouble then. Kalau x might as well I get the free RM1 phone instead of Zerolution lol.

After 12 m,it will reduce the fee quarterly.so after 12m u gona pay 1.3k.after two years u dont need to pay anything to upgrade,but still the phone needs to return back. Its better to buy the phone outside and make it 24m installment and the phone still urs after that.

Then Zerolution360 vs Zerolution, I'd rate Zerolution better..

My company's paying for my monthly bill, hence either Zerolution360 or Zerolution. If I want to own the phone, then it would be Zerolution.

Ya, but this is just the main APK. You will be require to download few others APK once you install it. The best way is to use my steps above, you can straight download from Galaxy Apps Store.

In Good Lock 2018, you are require the below apps so that you can enjoy the features:
1) LockStar
2) QuickStar
3) Task Changer
4) Routines
5) ClockFace
6) MultiStar

Beside, once you change your VPN, you can download the below apps from Galaxy Apps Store to enjoy additional features:
1) EdgeLighting+
2) EdgeTouch
3) One Hnad Operation +
4) SoundAssistant

would recommend Samsung charger instead of wireless. because according to some articles, wireless charging will degrade your battery as the amount heat emitted while wireless charging is more immense than fast charging. but still down to you

I am using Samsung Convertible Wireless Charger. So far so good. Recommend not to use any TG or screen protector. My Note 9 screen was naked since the day I got on 27 Aug and using RhinoShield Bumper case since that day, not a single scratches was found on my screen and I had done few drop test too. brows.gif

Definitely feels very good using naked screen. However, I would say it will still get scratches quite easily no matter how careful u r, hairline scratches which hard to notice if not look carefully.

Ya, but this is just the main APK. You will be require to download few others APK once you install it. The best way is to use my steps above, you can straight download from Galaxy Apps Store.

In Good Lock 2018, you are require the below apps so that you can enjoy the features:
1) LockStar
2) QuickStar
3) Task Changer
4) Routines
5) ClockFace
6) MultiStar

Beside, once you change your VPN, you can download the below apps from Galaxy Apps Store to enjoy additional features:
1) EdgeLighting+
2) EdgeTouch
3) One Hnad Operation +
4) SoundAssistant

Hi u guys that uses AccuBattery app, how do u disable charging alarm?

And do u set the charging alarm to 100% or below?
In other words do u charge too 100% or not? Because in the AccuBattery charging alarm state if charge until 60% battery it only uses 0.0-0.01% battery charging cycles where as if charge to 100% will use 0.90% charging cycle.

I dont know which to follow because i thought batteries nowadays should charge as soon as possible to the max to keep the battery life?

depend on what u want lor, galaxy watch u need to go in to Samsung eco system (which not mature, less apps, app build quality poor and most apps can be found in wear OS for free or in the box).

Huawei GT watch is brand new OS so nothing much to share, but Huawei eco less complicated than SAMSUNG.

for today, watch normally use for notisfication and simple features, for me i choose longer battery life device as wearable.

i have the same thought. the gt seems to have a longer battery life.

Maybe the color not so popular so they didn't bring much stock in.
Why the price drop scary though? It's great for consumers! biggrin.gif
This is probably one of the best phones you can get right now if pricing stays this way.

You are basically OCD
None of my buyers ever examined a phone so closely as you
Infact ALL my buyers are often amazed at my display as I never use any type of SP. Don't believe in such stuffs

First of all Hi Uncle Benny long time no chat with U in this forum. Remember 1st I ask and learn a lot from U when Samsung Tab in the market like almost 10 years ago I think.

Just curios how U take care ur Phone uncle Benny? June this year bought Asus Pro M1 and that time hard to search for TG for M1 need to buy it through shopee and after 2 weeks just arrived that TG. 2 weeks use M1 and when TG arrived got a dot scratch on that screen.

How u handle ur phone and what type casing u use? My M1 just use free silicon case been given in the box from Asus

I always use flipcase
I will change to a back case if I need to use waze in the car
And I DON'T believe in spending lots of money on cases. My limit usually below rm50
By nature I am very careful guy. I had NEVER accidentally drop my phone for last 9 years. I am shocked to read some users can report they can drop several times a week!!

Than you might need a SP especially if your working environment isn't clean ( with easy exposure to fine sand particles)

46mm battery life is what it should be, and could have been better. 42mm is equivalent to the Gear Sport, IMO if you already have that then there's no reason to upgrade spec-wise apart from the Galaxy Watch's loudspeaker for calling.

For WhatsApp we can view all recently notified messages, but reply only to the latest received message. Im unable to view photo via the watch. Its rather limited, but it is what it is. Hardly think its convenient to do messaging via the watch anyway, I usually use the predictive reply. So far calling experience has been rather good on max volume

First time user for Samsung smart phone product after comparing Mate 20, Mate 20 Pro and Note 9, buy in with current offer, but not dare to take from Online seller which slash the price more than RM1k from original price. grab it at RM3.2k from local authorize dealer.

So far the phone does me good, the most expensive phone I ever bought before.

Earlier I also had the same experience, but then I changed telco from DiGi to Maxis, and now battery life is good overall.

Depends on your telco and its service in your area. DiGi at my office really sucks, and also sucks my battery hahaha.

This is just one of few factors.

The only winning point on Note 9 is SPen, Notchless and Headphone jack.

I am comparing against Mate20Pro.

Kinda amazed that M20P dimension/weight is smaller than Note 9 in all aspect despite having similar 6.39" screen size.

nope

if you're using note 9 blue then get the frosted black

they input the color wrongly. lol

frosted black = looks like greyish black
matte black = pure black sweat.gif


frosted black + blue note 9 = looks nice nod.gif

a pinch of blue when its visible, but case is greyish-black, can still see the "SAMSUNG" logo a bit when the angle is right nod.gif

this case is only for those who just wants scratch protection tho, and not drop protection.

because its as thin as a skin!

yup... already received it a week ago... and there's a forumer here inform me, he received the phone on the same day as me.
Have you received sms notification that your warranty registered?
I received the SMS on Friday and received the phone on Tuesday after that (which is last week Tuesday).

you might want to follow-up with GoShop

Ya, friend contacted GoShop via FB, their CS replied that out of stock; re-stock on 31-Oct... not sure how true is that. Really shitty service.

I order on 6-Oct; also received the phone last Tue like you... so I guess, they sold alot between 6 & 7 Oct till they ran out of stock for ppl ordered on 8.

but why GoShop? There got promotion?

I believe they open the box and resealed since sticker sort of in the box left one instead of two... I think.

The IMEI sticker on the phone still intact.

The plastics on the phone untouched and all other stuff untouched as well... no big issue for me.

GoShop sold it for RM2.6k (deduct from 10% no limit discount). The unit is from DirectD actually.

Received Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro (360° Cover).

Satisfied with the cover... bought at USD20.71 (including shipping) from Aliexpress.

Side bumper got rubber+plastic feel...

No difference on screen sensitivity...

S-Pen sensitivity, no difference...

The case increase the weight and it become bulky... well that's normal for a rugged case.

Haven't tested with wireless charger since don't have one... but youtube review mentioned no problem....

Basically pretty like it.

I did a short review... in few previous post... the front cover is a plastic... S-Pen sensitivity... not much different for me... if you fell less responsive (which not for mine) you can increase your sensitivity...

In a youtube review... thw reviewer mwntioned you can take out the plastic cover if you still want to use a tempered glass... but I did not tried it.

There's always going to be some differences between devices, the processor binning, battery decay rate, climate etc can all affect the battery life. Even though manufacturers try to reduce the differences between each device, still can't get every device to perform 100% alike.

Best not to obsess too much over sot and enjoy the phone biggrin.gif used to be obsessed over sot when i was on my nexus and oneplus phones.

Ok , average
Mine consistently 7 to 8 hours SOT with WQHD, AOD, sync, location on 24/7. Brightness around 30 to 40% - never use auto brightness feature. No gaming at all. Mainly internet based stuffs - browsing, tweeter, Facebook, YouTube, newsfeed, mail etc
Strength of wifi n LTE will affect battery life - mine I consider quite good average 100Mbps from unify and 80 to 90Mbps from Celcom

Compared to otterbox symmetry... same wide and length... but thickness... a bit thicker 1 or 2mm than otterbox.

Weight... seems equivalent to N9 with otterbox symmetry..

but no CLEAR COAT paint, u can't call that painted cause that color already mix with material.
I don't go polish my phone once it got minor scratch.
I don't go repaint when it have deeper scratch or dent.

So if your phone got a clear coat, you wont need a casing? hmm.gif

Cause I dont know what is the point you are trying to get at though.

Wow, seems a lot of patches for Note 9.
This is 3rd update since the launching.

Hopefully this will improve the battery performance, mine seems draining fast after the 2nd patch.
