Samsung is planning to merge the Galaxy S line with the Note one

20 July 2018
This way the company will save on development money and make room for the flexible flagship.

Does not matter. They already dumbed down the Note line to cater to casuals who prefer atyle over functionality.

Because the fashion crowd is where the money is and not on the geek market who were the first to support the Note from Day 1. /s

Must be fun to geek shame these days like how gaming journalists and devs as well as storefronts like GOG shaming the gaming community who buys products from them.

    Rh, 20 Jul 2018This is better... note is just too wide. The phablet, table... moreToo wide? Is narrower than a 5.5 inch 16:9 phone, narrower than all the previous notes which in fact is not a good thing for people using the pen.

          If that’s true, R.I.P. to all 11-12 millions note9 buyers, obsolete and replaced in 6 months. S6 edge plus all over again. Be patient, Just wait for the s10+ With s pen.

            Also would appreciate if they don't increase the price like Apple does,Samsung should go back to innovation and value rather than some dumb software tricks and ecosystem.

              This is better... note is just too wide. The phablet, tablet. Since the S10 might have 3 version
              1. With S Pen more rear cameras
              2. No S pen with more rear cameras, size like no.1
              3. Just like the galaxy s9 now

              It could go on more, maybe cheaper version, flat screen

                It could be a good idea to combine the two together. Or...... since the S+ is about same size and specs as to note line. To redefine the two as separates again, look below.

                Galaxy S and S+
                Galaxy Note and Note+

                Current S9 series is 5.8 and 6.2 and the Note 9 will have 6.4
                So make the Note+ a 6.9 or 7.1

                Samsung is already going to produce a 6.9in screen for the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. So it wouldn’t be completely impossible to do the to the Note line and bring it back to greatness again plus with the Note+ model could have a 5,000mAh or bigger.

                  Then we will start seeing phones📱 with names like Samsung GALAXY S 11 NOTE Edge Plus

                    Samsung's way of innovating things. LOL
                    Might as well combine TV and washing machine.
                    Imagine watching TV while waiting for your laundry to be done. LOL

                      Here's the simple answer to why this is FUD reposting generated by the Fruity Toy company:
                      They've said they'll launch the flexible phone early 2019, just before the S10 launch. That would mean Samsung would stop launching devices in the late summer.

                        Long live S-Pen.
                        RIP Note line.

                            As a long time Note user (from 1 to 8), I love this idea. I hate that Note became just the S model with a pen, so it became pointless to separate it any longer. Either make it significantly better every time (as it used to be long time ago) or just stop and add a pen to the S line.

                                  After 8 years in market, i think quite some users realized too large a phone is inconvenient to use. every motion done on the phone is slowed. and it is heavier.

                                  Stylus is good. but on larger screen is better. the ultimate experience is a stylus on the 12.9" PAD. the reason for a Note is slimmed.

                                  And, the price of Note is too high. over US$800 for a phone is too much. consider that the tech advancement is still fast year over year. got a latest model in this year. 2 years later it is a slow, low storage, low battery, outdated software phone.

                                  Many enthusiasts still have interest to chase the latest tech toy, but not willing spending high sum of money year after year.

                                      I think S10- should be about low weight (SGS2 like ... 110g). I'm currently more to the opposite side >7inch.
