so far this the best magnet i found , because the Black rubber is THICK , so it wont damage ur phone because the barrel of magnet is thick , summore the magnet is strong enough to hold even with note9 weight , very steady seriously

other brand i no dare to say  biggrin.gif

thanks, I might try it. Before this what I do is I bought a neodymium magnet plate the size of 50 cent coin as replacement for besi plate. It works well but neodymium magnet is very powerful I scared it might affect phone's internal.

hi, my note 9 arrived a few days ago. After 2 days of using it, I found the signal for internet and hotspot is weak. I tried network reset and even factory reset but the problem persist.

When I put on a plastic casing, it is even worse. Usually my Digi Infinite line at one particular spot can get 27mbps (4g) but this is just half of that and even worse speed with casing on. Is such defect possible or is it something else and is it ground enough for refund?

Where did you get this from? If it's really not up to your liking or a defect, then file for a refund/return. Shopee and Lazada should honour it I supposed. Did you come from other brands like Huawei? Huawei always does have stronger signals.

from Lazada. I did use oneplus 3T previously and it's metal, maybe signal transmit better over metal than glass? thanks.

I come from Oneplus 3T with metal case, I found Note 9 signal to be weaker for internet use. Problem exacerbated with casing on. I figure this is because signal get thru metal easier than glass. Now, I had to use Note 9 naked to get better signal. Plastic case proof to be not so good. Would metal case be better for signal reception? What is the solution?

based on my pass experience, metal case will make it worst especially wifi signal

yes, note9 signal quite poor if compare to others phone that use, they claim that this is good for safety

I compare to iphone, huawei and note9 signal reception is the worst. howerver, at normal good signal area, you will not notice about this
*
wow thank you for the affirmation on the Note 9 'problem'. I wish I knew it sooner before I made the purchase. maybe my research is not deep enough.

Does it happen to all areas that you go to or just some corners or isolated areas? Samsung is never known for its signal as compared to the Chinese peers. But if you are in good areas, you won't notice it and the speed is amazing. If everywhere you go has issues, either your sim/network/device aren't working well.

Signal strength for my telco in my office is very good but when I test with Note 9 against my old Oneplus 3T, it still lose. In my home is where the situation is dire. Signal not good and imagine Naked Note 9 is sometimes spotty, if put Spigen casing it becomes almost unusable to watch Facebook LIVE.

What I do now is carrying 2 phones in each pocket. My old 3T tethering to my Note 9. It's not ideal but it's the best I can think to make of the situation. I do love the Note 9 and it's pen feature.

So how? Are you still keeping the phone?

Yes keeping it, since I'm always using 2 sim card anyways, I'm using the 2 phones solution with 1 sim each.

Oh My God! I just found a solution to my slow DIGI Internet problem on my new Note 9. I have been suffering for a week to the point i'm resorting to using my phone naked because of internet signal issue.

To anyone with the same problem which is your area has weak 4G just download this app
'4G LTE Switcher ( no ads )'. My speed has increased tremendously and become much stabil. This is such a relief.

Hi guys. Is the Note 9 still worth to buy in 2019? I'm currently using Oneplus 3T and is looking at all the options. Reason to upgrade is heating issue, so-so screen, slow loading/lag, poor battery life (altho dash charging makes up for it).
*
I did upgrade from 3T, it's in my experience the 3T internet reception was better. I just want to go back to S Pen. I got imported set for RM2254 so yea it's worth it. Charger not as fast as dash charging but this time around the bigger battery will makes up for it. I missed 3 fingers screenshot, palm swipe is stupid.

how do I force an update? My Note 9 still outdated, stuck on version patch level 1 July 2019 and every time I checked for an update it says "Your software is up to date' although it is clearly not.

Is there any cable above 2m that support fast charging? Try buying a few from lazada but none support fast charging eventhough they advertise as does.

3m bro, I bought 2, braided and non braided and I can affirm it is fast charging. go long or go home.
