Hi Erica.. I just bought an unlocked note 9 from best buy but I noticed that when making calls, it switched from LTE to H. It doesn't have VoLTE either. My carrier is AT&T. Any thoughts on how I would be able to get this enabled? Or have you heard of anything like this?
you can tell Erica is a note enthusiast. Other TH-camrs dont really look into the uses of the S-Pen, they just mention features and move on. They dont seem to use the S-Pen in real life applications. It's refreshing to see full reviews done with passion.
I agree. I looked all over for a review that talks about it as that seems the most important feature but most just seem to gloss over it with technical info. In a review I want personal experience and opinions like this, not just a bunch of facts.
This video has been a labor of love and a lot of time went into testing and analysis. Part 2 will be along soon. Oh and my notes don't have the setting to save the notes as black under Samsung Notes. Not sure which versions get that.
Erica really puts the time in to make these reviews super detailed. She actually uses the phone. This is the kind of content we want, not some superficial overview other reviewers give.
Yes, I appreciate the detailed practical review on the S-Pen functionality, which is why I bought Note 8 last year. Note 9 has made what was already good to even better.

You're the only TH-cam channel that I would sponsor even if I'm near broke. You're hands down the best tech reviewer. Please do the audio review throught the headphone jack as detailed as the other aspects
Duh....think u can sweet talk into getting her to something 🤣🤣 She doesn't have a sponsor button and certainly don't need your pennies....🤣 Especially when your economy is crashing
Great info. I'm becoming more and more disillusioned with most TH-cam tech channels, as I see evidence of some of them being influenced by what they get from the company.....and others trying intentionally to be outrageous in supporting one company while mocking the competition. Your channel is one of about 3 that I still trust. The others are Mr. Mobile and Flossy Carter. By the way, the info about dark scenes in movies on Samsung devices was enlightening to me. Before now, I thought I was nuts to think that Amazon's cheap tablets were more enjoyable for watching movies with lots of dark scenes.....but now I see why.
Once again, that’s what I call a review. A ton of useful info from someone who took the time to make an actual review. Good work Erica and thanks for the write on pdf! I had forgotten how useful this app is!
This review is phenomenal. Usually, reviewers go over the same specs as listed in the official website. Based on your video, looks like you've put in great efforts in researching about the display and other features. One of the best reviews on TH-cam for Samsung Galaxy Note 9! Subscribed!!!
Erica you have small hands. I wasn't going to buy the Note because it looked massive in your reviews when you held it. Fortunately I checked it out anyway while in best buy one day. Not that massive at all, and I ended up switching from my iphone and buying from At&t. Thanks because your reviews played a big part in my decision 🙂
You may never read this but I have to say, thank you! This review alone convinced me to get the Note 9 and I'm so glad I did. Easily the best phone I've ever had.
I watch a lot of reviews and what strikes me most is the level of actual detail you go into Erica, not something I have seen on any other review and it really does help. Very good job.
I absolutely LOVE how clearly you speak. The way you put your words together when explaining the details ensures that viewers understand you perfectly. The structure of how you present your material is in very proper order, it's so satisfying. If i could put it into an image, it would be a really clean and organised room with everything labelled and really easy to find. Subscribed!
I’m buying the Note 9 soon it’s just hard to find the purple color way. The blue is cool I just hate that the fact the pen is yellow and writes in yellow.
Hi Erica, Will you get your hands on the Sony Xperia XZ3? I'm particularly interested in what you have to say about the display because it's Sony's first oled display in a smartphone.
Just got my note9 today! It's a nice step up over my s8+ I love the bigger screen and I'm guessing I'm going to love the longer battery life. My screen has perfect uniformity so I'm loving it!
You know looking at that phone in Erica's hand I realized first we had those really obscenely large phones in the 80s then we got the small phones and now we're back to the large ones again. Soon you're going to have to take out a loan to buy a phone.
Duh! Its no longer a phone, dufus... Its a pocket computer that's also capable of making phone calls.... Seriously, its more powerful than a 5 year desktop computer
@@LUNUSt nope.. I'm sorry its even faster some current processors especially laptops...look at this... Geekbench SCORES of latest i5 8th gen..... browser.geekbench.com/processors/2056 Geekbench scores of iphone xs.. wccftech.com/iphone-xs-geekbench-scores/ Guess who wins?

I dont find the note that much large if you really see and hold them in reality. I thought they were near as large as a tablet coz of the screen but theyre not.
Love it very informative I definitely am going to come back to this video when I get my Note 9 512gb this week and I have some time to try out some thing's I have learned thanks Erica Griffin!!!!!
@@SUMDUDE. Ya the wait sucks I called and ordered mine the day they were released after I drove to Tmobile and was told they don't stock the 512gb guess I should have figured that but I am pumped mine is getting delivered today.
I just came across your tech reviews and... They are shockingly good. Like very good. No other reviewer on yt goes as in depth as you do in your reviews.
Yea Erica where did you get that theme and how did you get your applications like that ? Love your reviews so on point with everything thanks for the knowledge
Well price increase is happening since most other youtuber worship this kind of pricing, especially the one who get their phone for free.. I'm glad you are open about how you get your phone..
Price increase is happening because people are willing to spend that much for a device that's so important in their daily lives, TH-camrs have nothing to do with it
I can't believe how naive you are. "It has nothing to do with youtuber" lol, then I believe Samsung and Apple are the biggest charity companies right now. This has been common practice in the tech industry. A company like NVIDIA for example even dictates what content and how features should be covered in reviews. Oh, do you know Louis "Unboxtherapy" never invited to Apple event (or even unbox new iPhone) since iPhone 6 Plus BENDGATE issue (and his video about that)? Do you know iJustine always invited to Apple event and always get the fanciest Apple hardware for free? Do you know that once you make bad video about one product you will never get free review unit ever after? Oh don't forget Linus even have to make iPhone Xs videos if he still wants free iPhone to review next year. Then how about FPT (frontpagetech) who got contacted by Google after videos of mocking Pixel 3 leaks? haha, should I make this list even longer? That is how rich company get richer and poor people will pay debt till death dude. Keep believing in your bubble world
Omg! You make really great thorough reviews that showcase products strengths and weaknesses with exacting and meticulous detail! Keep em coming! Subscribed!
This is what I want when I look for detailed videos about phones. Most of the things I would care about and would wanna know are covered in this video. Great job!
I had the note 5 and can't wait to get the note 9... This phone is great if your in school and take lots of notes👍👍 the camera is so good I use to take pictures of the notes the teacher would put on the board... And make notes with the pic.. anyway this is a must have phone if your in college/school...
My last Samsung phone was a note 4. And I swore to never buy another Samsung phone due to lag issues. My current phone was a pixel 2 xl( by google) and started to have battery drain issues after android p update. It's the smoothest android experience you can get. Due to the battery drain issues I decided to purchase a note 9 and I was pleasantly surprised how good the battery life was and how smooth the phone is! Samsung really made huge improvements to their software, along with the best specs on a phone, make this phone worth that horrible price tag.... go for it.
Your reviews are seriously in depth and very well written. I'm impressed by the amount of effort you put into this first half. Looking forward to the second half.
Fantastic review - by far the best I've seen on this device. It's driven me nuts that other reviewers mention the pen in passing without actually showing its functionality. Great to see it here.
I returned my Note 9 because of how poor the battery life was. It wasn't much better than the poor battery life I had on the Note 8. Watching this, though, I'm having some thoughts lol. I never realized Samsung Notes was that awesome with an S-Pen. I was looking for more ways to incorporate the pen into my usage with the phone, and the screen off stuff you showed with the always on display, looks really cool.
My Note 9 survives a day easily, with 30%+ left by midnight with a regular use. I don't know how much of a heavy user you are, but I certainly wouldn't classify the battery life as poor...
rasmie The stand-by time is the problem. I tested by charging to 100% and leaving it to sit without using it and in just a couple hours it was at 76%. =/
Good thing shes not a fanatic at all. Making comparisons during a review instead of just talking about the device being reviewed is sleazy. That's why I keep watching her, she really is the best tech reviewer :D
joy santod Comments like these are why people are annoyed with fanboys. This video had nothing to do with iPhone, but you just can’t stop thinking about it. I’m surprised you aren’t calling her an ‘Apple fanatic’ though, since she says the iPhone X’s screen is absolutely amazing, thanks to the specs Apple made Samsung adhere to.
Captain Heat Well, there’s no reason for Apple to take battery advice from a company that botched an entire phone line’s battery production so much that they were exploding and banned from airline flights. Why would they want to replicate a Samsung failure that ended in a massive recall? This wasn’t that long ago, have you already wiped it from your memory?
nit picking ,least samsung is £350 cheaper than crapples phone and it comes with a jack and fast charger and pen and bigger batttery and better display ,and grey scale clipping is easily fixwed with an app on playstore
Erica is the only one who has done note 9 justice! I was actually going through your channel yesterday looking for note 9 review and saw u hadnt uploaded it yet.
Out of all the youtubers I can tell you actually use your phone hands down this is the best video on youtube.I can't wait for part 2 please I can't wait.100 thumbs up thanks.
What I think about part 1? well, I'm a Note fan ever since the first release came out. In fact, I've been watching you ever since the Note 1 release, and I have to say, you're doing a splendid job delivery a well detailed yet fun episode of another day with The Note. I'm planning to buy it as soon as I get the funds. I'm currently using The Note 4 and I can't wait on getting my hands on the Note 9. Thanks for the info.
Girl, you just unraveled me so many capabilities that I didn't even know on my Note 9. My favorite feature/s is the split screen with more than one pop up app being used with the help of the edge panel whatever it's called. It makes me so much productive, especially when it comes to studying. I can basically read pdfs, note taking, video playing, and the calculator all at the same time.
Ohhh....Breath of the Wild wallpaper on your phone? Erica, you rock! 😄 And wow what an in-depth analysis on the note 9. You're my go to for phone info.
WOW! I am so impressed with this review! You have done a superb job. Detailed information, not too slow or fast, well narrated. I'm upgrading from an ancient Note 4!
Scintillating video! (Never used those words before) VERY clear AND useful s-pen tutorial!!! I purchased a "renewed" used "perfect out of the box" Note 9 a few months ago when the Note 10+ was released. Due to limited funds ($555), wanting a headphone jack etc. I have decided to wait for the next iterations to see if they are more suitable to my needs at that time for the $'s. Thank you very much!
Awesome work and love the customisation. Look forward to part 2 and maybe a part 3 as there will still be a lot of features that didn't make it to part 2
Excellent, insightful review Erica! Thank you for delving deeper into the functionality of the S-Pen, first review I've seen this done. Looking forward to part 2 and keep up the great work!
Yeeeessss!!! Oh my God I've been waiting for this video for so long!! Thank you so much you've done an admirable job! Can't wait for Part 2 keep up the good work you're doing fantastic!! 👍
Been watching your reviews for a couple of years now and I think you understand the difference between the Note and other phones very well. Glad to see the gamma settings finally improve on your go to device. It’s like someone from Samsung decided to watch your Note 8 review. They need to watch this one as well and take your advice on painting the glass to prevent light bleeding. Again! No other reviewer does this. Thank you for your continued dedication to analysis.

Really her reviews are the best. Spens aside. She really does try an do every phone the justice its due
Yep. Most just regurgitate the same bullet point list of specs then give a 30 sec opinion at the end.
She focuses on the technological aspect. Hence her name I think.
I agree. I looked all over for a review that talks about it as that seems the most important feature but most just seem to gloss over it with technical info. In a review I want personal experience and opinions like this, not just a bunch of facts.
Agreed. Ever seen anyone else cover dark clipping in amoled displays? I haven't. Her detail is off the charts and I often praise her for if.
This video has been a labor of love and a lot of time went into testing and analysis. Part 2 will be along soon. Oh and my notes don't have the setting to save the notes as black under Samsung Notes. Not sure which versions get that.
Love the Zelda background. Finally got a switch and I can't stop playing breath of the wild.
Can't wait. Part 1 was one of the best reviews on the "Tube."✌🏾
Have you heard how there's been a case of the Note 9 spontaneously combusting? I don't care if it does, I still want the phone.
Loved this first part, in depth as always. Thanks for all your hard work!looking forward to part 2 😊

Well, there’s no reason for Apple to take battery advice from a company that botched an entire phone line’s battery production so much that they were exploding and banned from airline flights. Why would they want to replicate a Samsung failure that ended in a massive recall? This wasn’t that long ago, have you already wiped it from your memory?
@@Ryotsu2112 iphone 6+ bendgate and needing to buy a fast charger seperate are pretty terrible
Great part 1. Well done. Worth waiting for. Looking forward to part deux!

Erica is there only reviewer who covers everything I'm interested in on devices. Thank you
No greyscale fix, no adjust white balance in basic mode. What a joke samsung
That's why it's called BASIC MODE. SMFH .... That's all you can come up with
Hahaha stfu I've owned note 8. The greyscale problem was on all display modes kid. I'm not even a samsung hater.
nit picking ,least samsung is £350 cheaper than crapples phone and it comes with a jack and fast charger and pen and bigger batttery and better display ,and grey scale clipping is easily fixwed with an app on playstore
girlsdrinkfeck app name please
Screen Balance , supposed to work but i don't have black crush on my S9 that bothers me so much i can be bothered to use it.
This is by far the most comprehensive note 9 review I've seen you deserve many many more views.
Erica is the only one who has done note 9 justice!
I was actually going through your channel yesterday looking for note 9 review and saw u hadnt uploaded it yet.
Out of all the youtubers I can tell you actually use your phone hands down this is the best video on youtube.I can't wait for part 2 please I can't wait.100 thumbs up thanks.
What I think about part 1? well, I'm a Note fan ever since the first release came out. In fact, I've been watching you ever since the Note 1 release, and I have to say, you're doing a splendid job delivery a well detailed yet fun episode of another day with The Note. I'm planning to buy it as soon as I get the funds. I'm currently using The Note 4 and I can't wait on getting my hands on the Note 9. Thanks for the info.
Extremely thorough and amazing attention to detail. Great content.
Girl, you just unraveled me so many capabilities that I didn't even know on my Note 9. My favorite feature/s is the split screen with more than one pop up app being used with the help of the edge panel whatever it's called. It makes me so much productive, especially when it comes to studying. I can basically read pdfs, note taking, video playing, and the calculator all at the same time.
Ohhh....Breath of the Wild wallpaper on your phone? Erica, you rock! 😄 And wow what an in-depth analysis on the note 9. You're my go to for phone info.
Impressive review!! With exactly the info we needed. Keep it up! Can't wait for part 2
Really informative. No other review had gone into the details like you have.
WOW! I am so impressed with this review! You have done a superb job. Detailed information, not too slow or fast, well narrated.
I'm upgrading from an ancient Note 4!
Jesus! This is theee most detailed review of a phone I have ever seen. I like it! Great content ;)
Scintillating video! (Never used those words before)
VERY clear AND useful s-pen tutorial!!!
I purchased a "renewed" used "perfect out of the box" Note 9 a few months ago when the Note 10+ was released.
Due to limited funds ($555), wanting a headphone jack etc. I have decided to wait for the next iterations to see if they are more suitable to my needs at that time for the $'s.
Thank you very much!
Excellent video Erica, Keep em coming.
Finally I've been waiting for this. Great review. Waiting for part 2. What a cliffhanger!!
The way she does reviews are just so informative. how come your not pass 1M subs?. Your vides are great
That wallpaper though. Great video as always Erica
Very informative and collective information Erica. Very good. I enjoyed. Look forward to seeing part 2. Thank you.
Awesome work and love the customisation.
Look forward to part 2 and maybe a part 3 as there will still be a lot of features that didn't make it to part 2
Have the phone a few weeks and really enjoyed this video, loads of detail and found out plenty of things i hadnt yet discovered!
Thanks for in-depth review of the pen feature. Just what I am looking for. Also like the high pitch BYE at the end. 😄
Great detailed review. Saw a lot here that I haven't seen elsewhere.
Amazing as always. So detailed, and this is just part 1!
This is the most relevant review I've stumbled upon so far. Great work!
What is your launcher?? Nice theme
One hell of a thorough review.
Excellent.
What launcher are you using? . I love it
Fantastic video once again. Eager for part 2
Excellent, insightful review Erica! Thank you for delving deeper into the functionality of the S-Pen, first review I've seen this done. Looking forward to part 2 and keep up the great work!
very detailed video, I'm glad that I found your channel Erica! Keep the awesome work up!
Yeeeessss!!! Oh my God I've been waiting for this video for so long!! Thank you so much you've done an admirable job! Can't wait for Part 2 keep up the good work you're doing fantastic!! 👍
Excellent review. Thanks for posting. Look forward to part 2. Might have to get one of these. Thanks again.
Best in depth reviewer in youtube right now
I was waiting for your review since the launch day
Been watching your reviews for a couple of years now and I think you understand the difference between the Note and other phones very well. Glad to see the gamma settings finally improve on your go to device. It’s like someone from Samsung decided to watch your Note 8 review. They need to watch this one as well and take your advice on painting the glass to prevent light bleeding. Again! No other reviewer does this. Thank you for your continued dedication to analysis.
Erica's Galaxy Note review is like from a user's point of view while being very informative about the technical aspects.
I like your wall paper. Where did you download it and what is it called?
