\"\"<\/a>Samsung approached the Galaxy Note9\u2019s<\/a> design with equal focus on usability and on empowering users\u2019 expression. As a result, the latest addition to the Note family is not only easy to use, with its customizable, Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) connected S Pen, it\u2019s also easy on the eyes, with a thoughtfully refined display and frame design. And with a two color options, which users are encouraged to mix and match with S Pens and accessories of various hues, the Galaxy Note9 offers users more ways to express their fashion and style.<\/p>\n

Enhancing an Iconic Design<\/h4>\n

The Galaxy Note9 furthers the Note series\u2019 stunning design heritage with a sleek form factor, as well as enhancements that enable users to multitask more efficiently and enjoy immersive multimedia experiences. A cornerstone of Samsung\u2019s design legacy, the Infinity Display is known for its seamless form and captivating visuals. Measuring 6.4 inches, the Galaxy Note9\u2019s Quad HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity Display is the series\u2019 largest yet, offering more room for work, play and everything in between. That means a bigger screen to immerse yourself in a favorite movie or game, and more space to write or create with the S Pen.<\/p>\n

To amplify users\u2019 immersion, Samsung rounded the corners of the display to a bare minimum, and refined the Galaxy Note9\u2019s barely-there bezels to conceal its iris sensor. The screen itself is also a deeper black, which allows it to blend in with the bezels when the device is off and enhances the overall aesthetic. Other enhancements include the redesigned camera deco, which now matches the color of the device, and the repositioned fingerprint sensor, which is now found beneath the camera. The smartphone\u2019s design is rounded off with a choice of two expressive color options: Ocean Blue and Lavender Purple.<\/p>\n

A Standout S Pen<\/h4>\n

Each Note adds new capabilities to the smartphones\u2019 signature feature: the S Pen<\/a>. Over the years, these enhancements have unlocked innovative ways for users to manage their mobile lives more comfortably and freely. When designing the Galaxy Note9, Samsung\u2019s team focused on enhancements that would take the S Pen\u2019s \u2018freeing\u2019 aspects to the next level, transforming it into more than a tool, but rather a device in its own right, complete with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connectivity and its own independent functions. The S Pen\u2019s individuality is also reflected in aesthetic elements of the Galaxy Note9\u2019s design. For example, unlike the other colorways, which each feature an S Pen in a matching hue, the stylish Ocean Blue model comes with a vibrant Yellow S Pen that stands out from the rest. And because each model\u2019s S Pen is compatible with any other Galaxy Note9, you can easily swap your S Pen for another if you feel like a different color would better suit your style*.<\/p>\n

The S Pen\u2019s significance to the line is also reflected in the new flagship\u2019s packaging, which prominently displays an image of the S Pen in place of the devices\u2019 traditional logo. This adjustment was made to honor the S Pen as the symbol of the Note series, and a key reason why the smartphones have garnered countless fans.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A Refined Frame<\/h4>\n

One of the first things you\u2019ll notice when holding the Galaxy Note9 is just how nicely it sits in the hand. The smartphone\u2019s comfortable contours are the result of a frame design that reflects thoughtful consideration for both usability and aesthetics. The metal frame was forged using a cutting process known as Dia-cutting, which utilizes a fast-rotating artificial diamond tool to create smooth, glossy surfaces that accentuate design details. The process involved tapering the surfaces of the frame that blend into the device\u2019s front and back, and carefully rounding the middle section, which comes into contact with your palm the most. The tapered parts of the frame feature a glossy finish, while the rounded middle section is matte. The resulting frame is sleek and slim, and features an interplay of glossy and matte finishes that complements the Galaxy Note9\u2019s premium design cues.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s available in a choice of three colors\u2014black, brown and red\u2014which users are encouraged to mix and match with their Galaxy Note9 to showcase their style.<\/p>\n\n
