I also got the Note 9, switched from the iPhone X, and had iPhones since they came out. I was blinded by the iPhone never looking into other phones, thinking the iPhone was the best of the best. Eager each year for a new release. One day, I and my daughter walked into Best Buy and went to the phone section I saw the Note 8, the pen was out with a drawing app open, (I should also add that both my daughter and I like to draw). So needless to say the Note won us over. We waited for the Note 9 early release and we both switched. I have zero regrets, the switch was easy and not so hard to learn, the customization, WOW, the help this phone gives me at work, WOW. My daughter is loving hers as well, she asked me once why we have never switched, I responded, I don't know I thought we had the best. I was like a horse with those blinding things that only let the horse look forward never looking to what other options their might be out there.

Thank you, Saki! I went with the Note 9 because of several things you pointed out. First of all, given the cost, the Note 9 already had a slight advantage but being able to get the DEX station and use this more like a PC won my heart.
Pound for pound the Note 9 is the best smartphone out. The iPhone Max added that large display but didn't do anything with it. Still cant do Split-screen multitasking.
Apple is apple eco system and note 9 is android... no other smartphone has the s-pen capabilities.....so that said it is a personal preference. I personally love the note series always has been the best Samsung phone put out....

That's probably some pliblisity stunt that Apple pulled, having some of there "Loyal" fan boys lie and say that there note 7 phones got too hot and blew up. That bull crap story has Apple's name written all over it. They probably did that I'm sure, because they new that Samsung was getting ready to, (spank that baby mule again) because they had produced another bad a** phone that was about to blow the Apple iPhone out of the public's eye and notice.

And they are getting ready to put an even Bigger hurting on Apple next year with the Samsung Galaxy Note X, lol. Or should I say, the Note 10.
*Note 9 advantages:* Included fast charger Included microUsb and Usb adapter Included $100 headphones Headphone jack Bigger and better screen No notch More unlock options More storage Expandable storage S pen More small features (split screen, screenshot options and just a bunch of small things some people use) AlwOn display (optional) Longer battery life (~40 minutes when actively used) So much cheaper *Iphone XS Max advantages:* Better camera in most cases Better performance Frequent software updates
I have the 512gb Samsung Note 9 and love it. I do have a second phone which is an iPhone but that usually stays put away. The Samsung is my main phone and don't see that changing anytime soon. I do agree that it is the better phone.
Apple is nice! Is just that is the same phone for the past 10 yrs. The problem is the UI That OS has to G0!.. No customizing, no multi tasking,..just apps on top apps, rows & rows icons!🤒
The reason why there is no customization is format and optimization, the reason why there is no app drawer is because apple's nand flash storage wouldn't be able to load the apps location fast enough to have that smooth experience. The truth is that apples CPU's aren't actually powerful. The reason why the benchmarks are high is because they are 1. False 2.archetechter based 3. The A12 can smoke desktop CPU'S in geekbench benchmarks, but we all know that's not posible as the battery can not supply over 35w tdp to a mobile processor on a phone so what gives? THE BENCHMARKS ARE WRONG. They compare architecture not raw performance it's all a lie to help with sheep's egos. Also the GPU on the snapdragon processors are far more superior to the A series bionic chip.
I have both android and iOS devices and they both are fine. It's ok to like one or the other or both. That why there are different manufacturers and different operating systems to meet the needs and wants of the consumers. No need to be hating on someone just because they like a different device than you do. I think saying one is better than the other, it's very subjective.
Yes. For me its an taste that I chose the samsung s10 plus instead of other phones. I just like the design more then others. I have seen the iPhones X, XR, xs, Max but it was not in my budget nor my taste because of the notch, but I can understand it has a great camera and processor. I simply don't use it for games or heavy apps. Its subjective in this yes.
U did many mistakes 1st -note 9 supports QHD rendering on media consuption bcz of its 1440p QHD display whereas ipxsmax just render media at FHD 1080p..which is where samsung leads also samsungs display quality is far better than ipxsmax ..max feels pretty dull and less bright.. 2nd - wireless charging..u missed a point that note 9 support fast wireless charging..whereas ipxsmax just support normal wireless charging... U missed liquid cooling on note 9 but thats okkk..and alsoo.apple app ecosystem isnt that big deal just bcz it has better apps but ..technically it lacks huge number of apps like notch hider. Or any any app like..launchers..themes..whatever u through in playstore u will find an app for it but apple store is bery very limited with apps so i will still prefer playstore over apple store..bcz..not very nicely placed apps but atleast u have apps for any of ur need which isnt the case for apple store 3rd point..except for USA nearly in evryother country note 9 is far cheaper than xsmax the pricing u said just stand for USA but i eill tell u in india note 9 costs $929 but xsmax costs $2000. Neatly same case in europe note 9 costs €899 and ipxsmax costs about €1100 maybe or even higher..idk..soo note 9 is clear clear win.. But wanna add one point that ip68rating on xsmax is pretty better than note9 but still its just nearly same no point to consider this
glitch gamer 1 - i agree note 9 is brighter 2 - that’s just advertising, Samsung says it’s fast and apple says whatever, they’re both probably the same. 3- App Store is WAYYY better then play store. A lot more apps, ecosystem is a big deal. It’s the apps you use...
Great comparison video... The best I have seen to date from any youtuber. Complete and not biased, all the test were great and what you can use in the future is like a 5 point attribute overview to show where each phones are.
Apple screwed up this release with their pricing. 1400 is insane. I just switched from the 7 plus to the note 9. I like it but the ads from Samsung wanting me to buy watches are pissing me off. Very annoying
@mike barcus you have to be careful with the apps you download. Look at the reviews first. Make sure they don't mention "too many ads" or things like that. The ads you see don't come from Samsung.
No it's a notification that takes you to the Samsung app thing and kept telling me about promos and stuff, usually the watch. Think it finally stopped though. Haven't got one today.
I'm loving Android since switching. I had the phone and after a few months I gave it to my sister and picked up an s9. Now I have the Note 9 and it is a phone that is 100% worth it's price tag. I got tired of buying the same phone.
Be careful switching simply because of the pen. I don’t think many would use it as much as you think and they break way to easy. They’re expensive to replace.
i have the same problem have the iphone x and love it and was waiting the iphone x max but honestly the only difference is the size so try the note 9 ans is a beast of phone
Walter White ok i also prefer iphones but your reasoning is incorrect. By that reasoning the reason not to by the XS max would be because Iphone 6 Bends. Does that make sense ? No! Samsung also makes good phones but the experience that the iphone offers is unparalleled.
Samsung lost a sale from me for their lack of color options, blue and pink are ugly. Give me a silver option, not something that looks like a child's plastic toy
I don't think the iPhone's 3D Touch compares to the Edge Panel on the Note 9. The iPhone has nothing like it and it is convenient as hell. Especially since you can call it up on the lock screen. What the Note 9 does have in relation to 3D Touch is long pressing on an icon. You basically get the same results as 3D Touch. I've been using the Note line of phones for a really long time and I also have an iPhone 7s and an iPad Pro. I have to disagree that the iOS app store is a better choice. When it comes to tablets yes, the App Store is the better choice. For phone apps though? No, Android had closed that gap.
Apple is killing 3d touch by the way. They realized that it's pointless. The removed it from the Xr this year and it should be be phased out completely by 2019 I heard.
@@islomkhonavliyaev2918 Well it was given to me and I thought he said it was a 7s. All it says on it is iPhone with an S in a box under it. Maybe it is a 6s. None the less, it's an iPhone. Is the model in settings somewhere? If so I haven't been able to find it.
Ken G absolutely wrong. iPhone has 3D Touch on top of long press. 3D Touch is two layers of extra depth. Tap is the main press. Then one two depths of pressure. iOS uses long press to move apps and a longer press to delete apps. Then 3D Touch is used for shortcuts on top of that. Even 3rd party apps can use 3D Touch with long press. For example a third party camera app can use those functions. A long press is typical burst photos. Then a tap on the shutter is one photo of course. Then a little harder press allows for the shutter to be use like a DSLR for focus control. Then the deepest press allows for long exposure. So 4 different actions within one single shutter button for a camera app.
Note 9 has better screen(morr ppi), microSD, Pen, a headphone jack, better slomotion camera, infinity display, better battery. Oh it has no notch. And much cheaper! You also get fast charge adapter.
2:44 I love that this guy uses these side by side filming angles in his videos when comparing 2 smartphones. He might just become my favourite youtuber 😃
I’ve been an Android user my whole life and this year I decided to try an iPhone for the first time..cause why not? And so I did. Got myself the XS and my personal thoughts, I love it, its fast, easy to use, quality feels great, and it’s just a great incredibly smooth and fast phone overall. Not gonna lie though, still miss the freedom to customization (not to mention the headphone jack), but by no means is the XS a bad phone at all...it just doesn’t have all the diversity android has imo then again never really used all the extra stuff android has but it’s better to have and not use than to not have at all..or in this case have “limited”. Still happy with my product but I can probably see myself going back to android soon if apple has nothing else to offer (:
That's exactly what happened to me. I never ever used multi functioning features on the android phones for the longest time so I decided why not try an iphone. But I realized after upgrading to couple different iPhones I was constantly bored, so I decided to get the note 8 and I use more of the features now than I ever did before because I missed them so much when I had the iphone.
As far as screen replacement goes your gonna pay more than 500 because the note9 screen is far more superior far more expensive. You can check Ebay and Amazon for yourself.
@@pcicraftsman8472 that's true but you also have to remember the cost to replace the back glass on both phones. To replace the back glass on the Iphone costs around 600$ and for the note it's less than 100$
Simply because everyone has one it's like why windows has viruses and Mac doesn't have many. The more people have the device the more hacks out there for it.
@@deadlyisgod7002 let these stupid dumb kids be. Iphones aint more or less secure, its just that ios is so Locked down that you dont notice it. Apples database they have everyones info, its just that closed source makes people Believe its more secure. Go watch Gary explains iphones are not secure video.
Saki, The quality of apps being better on the App Store as opposed to the Play Store is blown out of proportion. All the major apps look equally good and run equally well on Android.
Thank you! I hear people say this all the time and I just don't understand what there talking about both appstores have millions of apps on them and all the major apps are similar on both platforms. he also completely skipped over the advantages that Android has like the fact that the playstore has almost twice the amount of apps that ios has or the fact that apple bans certain types of apps like emulators,third party screen recorders,Launchers, automation apps etc. and the fact that you can download apps from third party sources other than the playstore.i agree the difference between the playstore and appstore is blown way out of proportion just like when Android phones load a game 2 seconds slower than an iPhone in a speed test and ios user exaggerate how fast iphones are.ios users tend to take something ios does slightly better and exaggerate how good it is. But I think when you look at what both oses have to offer as whole Android is overall better
Correct! I think reviewers are stuck in 2012 when app store differences were more apparent. But since then Android has caught up to the point where there's no difference at all, but reviewers continue to raise the same point from 6 years ago.
It is a no brainer that Note9 beats XS (Max) all day long. I've been a Note lover for many years. But this Note9 on my hand now is just mind blowing. Sakitech your honest review is great to hear.
@@MrRiingo I still use my Note 8 , and I'm keeping it until the Note 10 , and I used the iPhone X for 3 or 4 months , never got along with the notch or not having the customize options
Fair enough, the notch isn't for everyone and same for not being able to customise as much. But I just don't see how someone thinks a Note 8 runs circles around a S X Max.
iPhone is better. Almost doubling Samsung's bench mark scores, beats it on battery when you match the resolutions, and also has a bigger screen, while keeping the phone smaller for comfort when holding it. iPhone is also more durable, & Apple's Eco system just dominates Samsung's. Price is irrelevant, has no impact on if its better or worse.
@@poseidonselfridge2221 we're not on other videos, we're on this video, which clearly showed the benchmarks/results. Don't give a damn about your pathetic excuse of talking about other irrelevant bullshit. Funny you can't even do simple basic math but you're talking about others mental capacity, LOL
I don't see how your reply can make any sense, just because its a different video I should avoid talking about it on this video? You're kinda funny bro, and dumb for that matter. But I can't expect much, you're an American. I think anyone could do the mathematics on this video, even your dumb ass clearly.
Look I get it why people invested in the Apple ecosystem might want to use an iPhone...I have an iPad myself and i know gaming i great...but if you're on the fence and not entrenched in the Apple framework the Note 9 is better...way better. What I can't stand is their stinginess with fast charger and now no dongle. Frankly if you have a X stick with the X at least till they get rid of that notch. The extra money you will dish out is not worth it. Great video.
I reeeeeeally love your vids. Fantastic breakdown sir. Looks like I'll be getting the Note 9 with the massive amount of differences in overall customization and features. Thanks!!!
I just bought the Samsung today, I convinced the wife to get one too. Apples are ridiculous. 4 year old technology at next year's prices. I sent her this vid.
Note 9 is a beast. If you take it side by side with the iPhone you can easily tell the Note 9 display and camera is far ahead of the iPhone. There's also Dolby Atmos which is a killer feature in Note 9 for watching videos on your device without using headphones.
@@princessmoo4891 that explain why the note 9 take better pictures in the night time and a super slow mo option and softer pictures whiche i like yup the max really seem to have better camera right
Great review, although the gaming part and app store quality perplexes me, both stores offer nearly the same apps nowadays in 2018, had that comment been made a few years ago I would agree but you didnt consider the other part of gaming the android would do that would benefit gamers is better cooling on the Note9 and the fact that you can play a demanding game on your Note 9 AND have a youtube video running on the same screen at the same time, something iPhone cant do.
I got the Note9 a week ago and I love it so far. My last phone was a Motorola Z Force and it was a good phone that worked great the 2 yrs I had it. I dropped that phone more than 50+ times and it never cracked. So far the note is wonderful and I love the S-pen.
I have found it easier to get to my hearing aid functions. My hearing aids are made specifically for the IPhone and so is the hearing aid app. The enlarging feature works better for me also.
I'm glad the iPhone works for you. There are certain apps which are designed specifically for iPhones. My SUV's audio was designed specifically for an iPod but technology changes. The new OS Google is working on may change everything for you.
Have you seen what all the Note 9 can do? It has alerts for door bells, baby crying ect.. It has hearing aid functions built in and visual aids built in as well. I bet if you had a Note 9 you wouldn't look back.
no invectives please. Smaller battery is irrelevant, when the phone lasts the same, which it does, even it has almost 2x faster CPU in single threaded apps. 3.5mm jask is only when you do not have BT phones, which many people have. worse PPI is irrelevnat, when you cannot see the dost in real world scenario, which you cannot, unless you are an eagle. Charging issue will be fixed by SW or in HW eventually, no big deal (at least it does no explode, like previous notes...). It has very advanced 3D scanner, best in the industry which will be put to good use pretty soon by new apps. it has very advanced machine learning CPU, which will probably be a game changer. expadnable storage: what? are you serious? who uses SD cards anymore? The camera in XS Max is better than in noote: /watch?v=VCy3S0Flsk4 /watch?v=eaXGtOESWPY
I don’t want to lose all my iTunes music! But the note has so many cool things but the iPhone is 😍 Been using iPhone since iPhone 4, has galaxy 2 and switched and galaxy 7 edge plus and switched back. Don’t think I can make the switch!??
First of all, thank you very much for this review. Because I have a Galaxy Note 3 and it is the Andriod 5.0 edition. The S-Pen still works and you just help me stick with my normal brand. I wanted to switch to the IPhone Xs Max but after reviewing this video. I am sticking with the Galaxy Note 9 for $1000 for 2019. Thanks😃
Anouk Games This is just specs. The Note 9 has a bigger battery than the iPhone but the iPhone battery lasts longer, the note 9 has more than double the ram but the iPhone still keeps apps open for longer.
Before I was a Apple user I was on Samsung and I thought it was the best. 6 months later my phone lags like a fucking fortnite game. I’ve factory reset plenty times and nothing changed. I’m currently a Apple user. I get issues now and then like apps crashing, or not downloading, and minimum issues. But not like my Samsung. I respect Samsung but I’ll stick with apple
@@KcraeTooOfficial I would bye an Apple IPhone but it is too expensive. You get more Technologie on the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. I think that IOS is Made for Kids. Lok the Lamp the Button is so big and I can't identify myself with IOS.
Android is better than ios but I rather iOS the phone feels more smoother and it has iMessage and FaceTime that’s the only thing I love about it. I’m about to buy the Samsung galaxy 11 when it comes out.
Samsung makes iPhone DRAM, NAND flash, and OLD screen for iPhone models. Samsung made $4 Billion in 2107 from selling parts to Apple. Without Samsung no Apple.
I agree with you that the Note is a more talented phone, it does more things, however, you left out a MAJOR factor, UPDATES! That iPhone had the latest version of IOS and always will. That Note is already behind, running Oreo instead of Pie, and it will always be behind!
No doubt the Note has more features and does more, all in saying is, if you are going to do a smackdown between the two phones, you HAVE to mention the update situation or your smackdown is dishonest!!!
@@bone2455 If an Oreo Note 9 has more features than a Pixel 2XL on Pie what exactly is missing. It takes months for Samsung to update but it takes Google years to add features that Samsung phones have. It took Google more than 3 years to add split screen multitasking.

Apple is nice! Is just that is the same phone for the past 10 yrs. The problem is the UI That OS has to G0!..
No customizing, no multi tasking,..just apps on top apps, rows & rows icons!🤒
So true bro!!!
The reason why there is no customization is format and optimization, the reason why there is no app drawer is because apple's nand flash storage wouldn't be able to load the apps location fast enough to have that smooth experience. The truth is that apples CPU's aren't actually powerful. The reason why the benchmarks are high is because they are 1. False 2.archetechter based 3. The A12 can smoke desktop CPU'S in geekbench benchmarks, but we all know that's not posible as the battery can not supply over 35w tdp to a mobile processor on a phone so what gives? THE BENCHMARKS ARE WRONG. They compare architecture not raw performance it's all a lie to help with sheep's egos. Also the GPU on the snapdragon processors are far more superior to the A series bionic chip.
I have both android and iOS devices and they both are fine. It's ok to like one or the other or both. That why there are different manufacturers and different operating systems to meet the needs and wants of the consumers. No need to be hating on someone just because they like a different device than you do. I think saying one is better than the other, it's very subjective.
Same!!!
Agreed same her
Yes. For me its an taste that I chose the samsung s10 plus instead of other phones. I just like the design more then others. I have seen the iPhones X, XR, xs, Max but it was not in my budget nor my taste because of the notch, but I can understand it has a great camera and processor. I simply don't use it for games or heavy apps. Its subjective in this yes.
Thx for your honest video great job Saki👍
U did many mistakes
1st -note 9 supports QHD rendering on media consuption bcz of its 1440p QHD display whereas ipxsmax just render media at FHD 1080p..which is where samsung leads also samsungs display quality is far better than ipxsmax ..max feels pretty dull and less bright..
2nd - wireless charging..u missed a point that note 9 support fast wireless charging..whereas ipxsmax just support normal wireless charging...
U missed liquid cooling on note 9 but thats okkk..and alsoo.apple app ecosystem isnt that big deal just bcz it has better apps but ..technically it lacks huge number of apps like notch hider. Or any any app like..launchers..themes..whatever u through in playstore u will find an app for it but apple store is bery very limited with apps so i will still prefer playstore over apple store..bcz..not very nicely placed apps but atleast u have apps for any of ur need which isnt the case for apple store
3rd point..except for USA nearly in evryother country note 9 is far cheaper than xsmax the pricing u said just stand for USA but i eill tell u in india note 9 costs $929 but xsmax costs $2000. Neatly same case in europe note 9 costs €899 and ipxsmax costs about €1100 maybe or even higher..idk..soo note 9 is clear clear win..
But wanna add one point that ip68rating on xsmax is pretty better than note9 but still its just nearly same no point to consider this

1 - i agree note 9 is brighter
2 - that’s just advertising, Samsung says it’s fast and apple says whatever, they’re both probably the same.
3- App Store is WAYYY better then play store. A lot more apps, ecosystem is a big deal. It’s the apps you use...

@@Danstry play store has more apps actually.

Great comparison video... The best I have seen to date from any youtuber. Complete and not biased, all the test were great and what you can use in the future is like a 5 point attribute overview to show where each phones are.
Note 9 IS THE BEST
Apple screwed up this release with their pricing. 1400 is insane. I just switched from the 7 plus to the note 9. I like it but the ads from Samsung wanting me to buy watches are pissing me off. Very annoying
They are not from samsung might be from some else app bro
Check again.
Hmm... I'm not getting any ads.
Me too,zero ads here.
@mike barcus you have to be careful with the apps you download. Look at the reviews first. Make sure they don't mention "too many ads" or things like that. The ads you see don't come from Samsung.
No it's a notification that takes you to the Samsung app thing and kept telling me about promos and stuff, usually the watch. Think it finally stopped though. Haven't got one today.
It's year 2022, and I'm watching this on my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (512GB/exynos model) still smooth with gorgeous display.
Solid comparison. I'm getting both devices for different reasons. Thx Saki

Isheep android fanboy looking ass
dr FeelGood Lol you cant even afford a phone😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Sad
On december I'll switche to the Note 9 🤷🏾♂️ Apple lost their innovations sense sadly.. Note 9 S pen seduce me a lot 😍
I'm loving Android since switching. I had the phone and after a few months I gave it to my sister and picked up an s9. Now I have the Note 9 and it is a phone that is 100% worth it's price tag. I got tired of buying the same phone.
Be careful switching simply because of the pen. I don’t think many would use it as much as you think and they break way to easy. They’re expensive to replace.
i have the same problem have the iphone x and love it and was waiting the iphone x max but honestly the only difference is the size so try the note 9 ans is a beast of phone
I'm switching on November so excited 😆

@Walter White I've been always using Samsung and Android devices , never got a virus.
Walter White ok i also prefer iphones but your reasoning is incorrect. By that reasoning the reason not to by the XS max would be because Iphone 6 Bends. Does that make sense ? No! Samsung also makes good phones but the experience that the iphone offers is unparalleled.

@@eskay6666 I personally prefer the Android OS because of the customization options , but everyone to his own taste

LOL
Because they been using the same os for years now goofy easy to optimize too many droids are out right now so the devs are to lazy to optimize apps
Samsung lost a sale from me for their lack of color options, blue and pink are ugly. Give me a silver option, not something that looks like a child's plastic toy
I don't think the iPhone's 3D Touch compares to the Edge Panel on the Note 9. The iPhone has nothing like it and it is convenient as hell. Especially since you can call it up on the lock screen. What the Note 9 does have in relation to 3D Touch is long pressing on an icon. You basically get the same results as 3D Touch.
I've been using the Note line of phones for a really long time and I also have an iPhone 7s and an iPad Pro. I have to disagree that the iOS app store is a better choice. When it comes to tablets yes, the App Store is the better choice. For phone apps though? No, Android had closed that gap.
Iphone 7s ? Are you serious? Did you invent it?
Apple is killing 3d touch by the way. They realized that it's pointless. The removed it from the Xr this year and it should be be phased out completely by 2019 I heard.
@@islomkhonavliyaev2918 Well it was given to me and I thought he said it was a 7s. All it says on it is iPhone with an S in a box under it. Maybe it is a 6s. None the less, it's an iPhone.
Is the model in settings somewhere? If so I haven't been able to find it.
@Kamal Kristipati well okay, if you say so. If I was biased I would have an iPad.
Ken G absolutely wrong. iPhone has 3D Touch on top of long press. 3D Touch is two layers of extra depth. Tap is the main press. Then one two depths of pressure. iOS uses long press to move apps and a longer press to delete apps. Then 3D Touch is used for shortcuts on top of that. Even 3rd party apps can use 3D Touch with long press. For example a third party camera app can use those functions. A long press is typical burst photos. Then a tap on the shutter is one photo of course. Then a little harder press allows for the shutter to be use like a DSLR for focus control. Then the deepest press allows for long exposure. So 4 different actions within one single shutter button for a camera app.
Note 9 has better screen(morr ppi), microSD, Pen, a headphone jack, better slomotion camera, infinity display, better battery. Oh it has no notch.
And much cheaper!
You also get fast charge adapter.
Forgot to mention about the Dolby on the note 9 as well as possibly the best function from the s pen which is controlling your camera
Finally a youtuber who isn't biased
Great video love it I learn so much great presentation and we'll explain thank you 😎😎 Note 9 now for me
2:44 I love that this guy uses these side by side filming angles in his videos when comparing 2 smartphones. He might just become my favourite youtuber 😃
crazy see comments from a android youtuber vs an apple youtuber. People really are bias towards both
I’ve been an Android user my whole life and this year I decided to try an iPhone for the first time..cause why not? And so I did. Got myself the XS and my personal thoughts, I love it, its fast, easy to use, quality feels great, and it’s just a great incredibly smooth and fast phone overall. Not gonna lie though, still miss the freedom to customization (not to mention the headphone jack), but by no means is the XS a bad phone at all...it just doesn’t have all the diversity android has imo then again never really used all the extra stuff android has but it’s better to have and not use than to not have at all..or in this case have “limited”. Still happy with my product but I can probably see myself going back to android soon if apple has nothing else to offer (:
That's exactly what happened to me. I never ever used multi functioning features on the android phones for the longest time so I decided why not try an iphone. But I realized after upgrading to couple different iPhones I was constantly bored, so I decided to get the note 8 and I use more of the features now than I ever did before because I missed them so much when I had the iphone.
I saw you on another video
Very good job the best phone reviewer on modern TH-cam
Galaxy Note 9 so I dont have to pay *500$* for a screen replacement.
As far as screen replacement goes your gonna pay more than 500 because the note9 screen is far more superior far more expensive. You can check Ebay and Amazon for yourself.
@@pcicraftsman8472 that's true but you also have to remember the cost to replace the back glass on both phones. To replace the back glass on the Iphone costs around 600$ and for the note it's less than 100$

@@jacobhardell899 because the way they made the back glass is different and harder to replace

You do know you can put Note 9 in Cinema mode right? Or Basic or Photo if you don't like the saturation on the display.
Saki,
The quality of apps being better on the App Store as opposed to the Play Store is blown out of proportion. All the major apps look equally good and run equally well on Android.
Thank you! I hear people say this all the time and I just don't understand what there talking about both appstores have millions of apps on them and all the major apps are similar on both platforms. he also completely skipped over the advantages that Android has like the fact that the playstore has almost twice the amount of apps that ios has or the fact that apple bans certain types of apps like emulators,third party screen recorders,Launchers, automation apps etc. and the fact that you can download apps from third party sources other than the playstore.i agree the difference between the playstore and appstore is blown way out of proportion just like when Android phones load a game 2 seconds slower than an iPhone in a speed test and ios user exaggerate how fast iphones are.ios users tend to take something ios does slightly better and exaggerate how good it is. But I think when you look at what both oses have to offer as whole Android is overall better
Correct! I think reviewers are stuck in 2012 when app store differences were more apparent. But since then Android has caught up to the point where there's no difference at all, but reviewers continue to raise the same point from 6 years ago.
@@vimalramachandran agreed

Fair enough, the notch isn't for everyone and same for not being able to customise as much. But I just don't see how someone thinks a Note 8 runs circles around a S X Max.
I agree, the Samsung Note 9 is a better phone for the cost 🤷🏽♀️
iPhone is better. Almost doubling Samsung's bench mark scores, beats it on battery when you match the resolutions, and also has a bigger screen, while keeping the phone smaller for comfort when holding it. iPhone is also more durable, & Apple's Eco system just dominates Samsung's. Price is irrelevant, has no impact on if its better or worse.
8,800 vs 11,000 leaves a 2,200 difference. Not sure how you get 2,200 is double 8,800. Iphone would need 17,600 in order to be double, and i doesn't.
Not once did I say it was double. Also, I wasn't referring to this video either. Scores I've seen have been at a larger difference.
"Almost doubling Samsung's bench mark scores" Is what you said. So 11,000 is "almost" double 8,800? Someone can't math.
@@poseidonselfridge2221 we're not on other videos, we're on this video, which clearly showed the benchmarks/results.

Note 9 better phone ... phone of the year
Look I get it why people invested in the Apple ecosystem might want to use an iPhone...I have an iPad myself and i know gaming i great...but if you're on the fence and not entrenched in the Apple framework the Note 9 is better...way better. What I can't stand is their stinginess with fast charger and now no dongle. Frankly if you have a X stick with the X at least till they get rid of that notch. The extra money you will dish out is not worth it. Great video.
I reeeeeeally love your vids. Fantastic breakdown sir. Looks like I'll be getting the Note 9 with the massive amount of differences in overall customization and features. Thanks!!!
I just bought the Samsung today, I convinced the wife to get one too. Apples are ridiculous. 4 year old technology at next year's prices. I sent her this vid.
VroodenTheGreat lol. Tried this with Samsung s7 edge. My wife refused. Wish I had listened. Been a long two years. Can’t wait to get the Xs Max
Note 9 is a beast. If you take it side by side with the iPhone you can easily tell the Note 9 display and camera is far ahead of the iPhone. There's also Dolby Atmos which is a killer feature in Note 9 for watching videos on your device without using headphones.

Note 9 no horrid screen cut out, easy win, and also has far cheaper SD card storage, no brainer.
Great review, although the gaming part and app store quality perplexes me, both stores offer nearly the same apps nowadays in 2018, had that comment been made a few years ago I would agree but you didnt consider the other part of gaming the android would do that would benefit gamers is better cooling on the Note9 and the fact that you can play a demanding game on your Note 9 AND have a youtube video running on the same screen at the same time, something iPhone cant do.
I know before I've looked at it that Sarki says Note is better
I got the Note9 a week ago and I love it so far. My last phone was a Motorola Z Force and it was a good phone that worked great the 2 yrs I had it. I dropped that phone more than 50+ times and it never cracked. So far the note is wonderful and I love the S-pen.

Your deffently right note 9 is the superior phone
great video man! thanks for your work ;)
Samsung galaxy note 9 is the best

I will stay with the IPhone. They are above any phone out there for hearing and vision disabilities which I have both.
The new real time text thing on the note nine is supposed to be for that. You can text and talk to the person at the same time
I have found it easier to get to my hearing aid functions. My hearing aids are made specifically for the IPhone and so is the hearing aid app. The enlarging feature works better for me also.
I dislike iPhone, but I think it's great they have those kind of features for people with some type of disabilities
I'm glad the iPhone works for you. There are certain apps which are designed specifically for iPhones. My SUV's audio was designed specifically for an iPod but technology changes. The new OS Google is working on may change everything for you.
Have you seen what all the Note 9 can do? It has alerts for door bells, baby crying ect.. It has hearing aid functions built in and visual aids built in as well. I bet if you had a Note 9 you wouldn't look back.
Nice video... well defined n super accurate. Keep going.. God bless
Note 9 also has a faster (future proof) modem, for much faster connectivity.
But the phone will only get like 2 or 3 years software updates and iPhone XS max will get like 5 or 6 considering the iPhone 5s got 6

The iPhone Xs max screen looks very dull compared to the note9
it much more accurate, samsung is oversaturated
iphones have, for quite some time, the best color accuracy in the industry. This test proves that as well
no invectives please. Smaller battery is irrelevant, when the phone lasts the same, which it does, even it has almost 2x faster CPU in single threaded apps. 3.5mm jask is only when you do not have BT phones, which many people have. worse PPI is irrelevnat, when you cannot see the dost in real world scenario, which you cannot, unless you are an eagle. Charging issue will be fixed by SW or in HW eventually, no big deal (at least it does no explode, like previous notes...). It has very advanced 3D scanner, best in the industry which will be put to good use pretty soon by new apps. it has very advanced machine learning CPU, which will probably be a game changer. expadnable storage: what? are you serious? who uses SD cards anymore?

I agree with you that the Note is a more talented phone, it does more things, however, you left out a MAJOR factor, UPDATES! That iPhone had the latest version of IOS and always will. That Note is already behind, running Oreo instead of Pie, and it will always be behind!
An Oreo Note 9 has more features than an iPhone on IOS 12.
No doubt the Note has more features and does more, all in saying is, if you are going to do a smackdown between the two phones, you HAVE to mention the update situation or your smackdown is dishonest!!!
@@bone2455 If an Oreo Note 9 has more features than a Pixel 2XL on Pie what exactly is missing. It takes months for Samsung to update but it takes Google years to add features that Samsung phones have. It took Google more than 3 years to add split screen multitasking.
