2018 Samsung Galaxy Note9 128GB - Midnight Black (Renewed)

As always happy with Amazon service I'm writing this to warn you so you don't waste your money just like I did. If you want to skip my story to go straight to phone review scroll down to **** area We all know the cost of new flagship phones today ( June 2021 ) So last summer I bought Note9 from typical high street seller ( not franchise but small "one man shop" ) So called "new" from retailers. What a mistake I did. Now my work is driving around west to north London area ( Heathrow->Luton->central London area, 12 hour shifts ) so I need good coverage. Straight from beginning signal started to play ( no signal, no internet at random places) 3 days later I brought it back for another "new Note9" . Same issue. I was confused as at that time they were building 5g towers plus lockdown and that seller Was very persuasive telling me that it's a network issue. I even changed network ( to O2 ) to match up network strength with my work phone . Unfortunately I cannot use mobile data in my work phone for private purposes so still not sure . Months have passed and even my friends and family started to call me on my work phone as I Was always out of reach Except network issue ( which is main purpose of the phone anyway ) I loved this phone, as other reviews say all apps run smoothly, wi-fi ok etc. **** Finally now ( May 2021 ) I typed in Amazon "Note9" to find out that Amazon does refurbished phones with one year return policy ( obviously there is no need to wait whole year to find out if phone works well or not) What a relief! Back to youtube, what'sapp, drone flying, audiobooks, trip/sightseeing recording, and even film making app ( kinemaster) all runs smooth and fast! Please be aware that I'm not gaming fan and I don't play games so don't know that, but I travel a lot and video/photo is still so good you cannot guess if it Was taken by Samsung S21 or my Note9 fresh and fast Straight from the box ! Phone Was like new for £275 what a good choice! Now theese high street sellers are already crying for customers as everyone buys on Amazon now ( I feel sorry for them) even though the one who sold me my first Note9 does not buy phones over from walk-in people, only from retailers ( friend of mine tried to sell him his phone ) it is proof that companies like Samsung send them second grade unsold phone with problems. Adding to that lots of people complaint about stylus pen and mine Was also faulty ( sensor faulty->"please put back stylus pen" on dash all the time ) but I don't really use stylus so it's ok for me. This one ( form Amazon ) is working and looking like brand new in fact I'm writing this review using it. So if you are like me ->not playing games, using phone for WhatsApp, youtube, audible, Facebook, workshift callendar, but don't want to spend £1000 or more for flagship go ahead and buy it in here! You always can send it back and get your money back. If I could find one issue I could say that battery life is slightly shorter than my high street shop Note9. but still not an issue as for what I do it lasts all day no problem.

For starters this is a 3 year old phone meaning it is on its last year of android updates. Do I care? No. Will you? Depends on if you are obsessed with having the latest version of the OS as the latest on this is Android 10. As for performance, I got the snapdragon version of this phone and it easily runs Genshin Impact as long as you don't go too crazy with the graphics settings and it has run any other game that I've thrown at it perfectly including Minecraft, Nier Reincarnation, Honkai Impact and an open source osu! client (S Pen came in very handy here). Emulation of Nintendo Wii games via the dolphin emulator produced a playable result with only a few stutters here and there. As for the cameras, they are of a high enough quality for me as I don't use any of the 100x zoom lenses or 8K recording that newer flagships have. I don't really buy a phone for cameras as I only really use the camera in Snapchat. Battery life is a decent 7 hours of my typical screen on time (TikTok, a few light games, etc) meaning I can easily get through the entire day on a single charge. When gaming on it, the battery lasts and average of 3-4 running Genshin and around 5-6 hours in Nier. If you do find yourself low on power, a 15 watt fast charger is included meaning you can go from 20% to 50% in around 25-30 minutes. As for storage the 128GB isn't quite enough for me as Genshin uses over 30GB now but the phone also includes a Micro SD Card slot which means you can drop in a 512GB card and have more than enough space for everything you'd ever need on this phone. Lastly the unlock methods are fingerprints or iris scanning (similar to face id). I have both set up but have found the fingerprint scanner to be faster and more reliable. I've had my Note 9 for nearly a year now and it still serves me well to this day. I highly recommend this phone for anyone that is looking for a bargain as I was able to nab mine for only £250 and it still feels just as high quality and responsive as any other flagship from Samsung.

Estetical the item is in perfect condition and all its features working flawlessly and came with it's own charger, charger cable, earphones, extra earphones pads and a couple of USB-C adapters. I've noticed that battery charge retention could be slightly better, but it's still get me through the major part of the day, But i'm fine with that since i bought this item knowing that it's a used item. Packaging is something that can be improved upon, the phone was in a bubble wrap bag but rattled around the external box due to the lack op packing. Overall experience and value for money is a 9/10.

The phone is great its just the fact that I haven't even had the phone 24hrs and the battery drained plus it went so hot I couldn't touch it the colours on the screen keep going as if merging like tie dye!!

The phone I received was less than £120. It is in terrific condition and I couldn't see signs of wear and tear , even though it wasn't advertised as excellent. The Samsung Note 9 is a top notch phone , despite being a few years old. I've always liked having the stylus . I can't think of anything I've ever bought that matches the value of this . It is the second Note I've owned , but this one ...I've bought a protective cover to look after it

I bought this as a second phone and for a bit of nostalgia as I owned this model in 2019. It was refurbished but I thought it was brand new at first as it was devoid of any noticeable use. However there were some fine surface scratches on the screen that you really have to look hard to see. So for the money this was absolutely acceptable. Battery life is also surprisingly good for a 5yr old phone. This was a flagship phone when it was launched but it does show its age with the camera (still good though) and the rear mounted fingerprint reader. The screen is bright and vibrant but is a lot smaller than my behemoth Galaxy s24 Ultra! However it has the iris scanner which I love! It works really well. And the S-Pen is still a very useful feature for me. The only issue is that the security updates ended in 2023, so I would be extra careful about what apps you have on it. It's still low risk but worth considering. For the money I think it's a very good choice. You get a great performing phone with a beautiful screen and some still regarded flagship extras.

In a world with fugly notches and distracting camera pin holes in the screen, not to mention lack of a S-Pen slot, 3.5mm jack and notification LED, the Note 9 still reigns supreme because it offers all the latter without the former. And with Samsung's latest Android build this one (my 3rd Note 9) is fast and stable. I really cannot fault it and think those who splash out 3 times the price on less versatile more recent phones, inc the iPhone 12, Note 10 & 20 are crazy. This Amazon reconditioned one is like new too, although the one issue on arrival was the S-Pen did not work because the tip was damaged. I used the included tip replacement kit to replace the tip and all is good. Going to stick with this 9 until Samsung launch a well executed folding Note.

my husband had a galaxy note 8 last year and he's been really pleased with everything about it. prior to him buying that I had bought a huawei p20 before all of the controversy starting. it has been driving me bonkers for months now and the updates were a nightmare with everything on the phone being changed. so I've been hanging in there to buy a galaxy note and have done a lot of research on this. was going to get the latest 5g 10+ but it's out of my price range. I did ponder for quite a while whether to risk going for a renewed phone but with the Amazon guarantee and being on Prime I went ahead. sure it arrived in a plain box without any paperwork but I was aware of that as that is what is stated. (don't get why someone has left a negative comment in the reviews about this - they obviously did not read the description). the phone itself literally looked brand spanking new and it came with a brand new samsung charger and lead. well impressed. it does need charging before use so patience is needed. not being a techie I gave it to my husband to do all of the data transfer from my old phone and he did this in next to no time. apparently samsung have a built in app that does this for you. now had the phone for a few days and really am absolutely delighted with it - it has a lot more easy to use features on it than the huawei. by the way, the phone arrived in less than 24 hours from ordering - thanks to the Sellerfor that. if you are having any doubts about buying a renewed phone thoroughly read through the description - this phone is guaranteed by Amazon for 12 months.
