Carol, 06 Nov 2020Well, ever used samsung? Software is subjective, yes, but i... moreRegarding the software, Nokia's software is up-to-date and clean but lacks basic features, while Samsung software may be heavily customized by has added useful features. Not all people want to update their phones to avoid bugs and planned obsolescence by companies.
Regarding the camera, do you know what makes a good photo? It's about good hardware and competent software processing. In the hardware side, the Galaxy Note 9 has OIS in its 2 rear cameras to counter hand shakes, has Dual PDAF for faster focusing, and dual aperture to automatically adjust how much light is allowed depending on the scene. Nokia 8.3 5G doesn't even have OIS in any of its 4 rear cameras and is known to have focusing issues in its previous phone like Nokia 8 and Nokia 7 plus. In the camera's software side, Samsung is known for its noise-free processing and lively photo output. While Nokia under HMD is not known to produce excellent photo output, you can check the reviews of DXO mark.

MR45, 05 Nov 2020Lol, are you serious? Software is subjective depending on p... moreWell, ever used samsung? Software is subjective, yes, but i am talking generally here. And generally, software quallity has a lot of factores and one of them is it's Update cycle, how clean it is would be the next. And samsung has none of this, so much garbage installed can only be met by chinese manufacturers, and maybe not even there. So yeah, software might be subjective but, drowing the line at what makes an OS, Pure Android is just high quality, vs garbage plus traking quallity that Samsung software is. Nit to mention 5G (future proof in all aspects). Camera quality is no way near Nokia's, that i can promise you. People should stop looking at gimmiks they never use. 99% of the time they take pictures of their suroundings and faces. Plus, the new camera software also has a lot of improvements and zeiss branded modules that can actually be usefull. Note 9 is already 2 years old... to recomand it over Nokia 8.3, is pure bs. If their would be an Samsung to choose, S20fe would be a way better option then Note 9.

Carol, 04 Nov 2020Software, camera, build quality and battery, just way better. Lol, are you serious? Software is subjective depending on preference. Camera is better on Note 9 software and hardware wise, I was amazed you missed the OIS of its 2 rear cameras and Samsung competent noise-free processing. Build quality of Note 9 is better, it has IP rating. While battery life is the only category where Nokia is better though not sure because GSMArena has not reviewed it yet. And don't tell me I'm biased because I am currently using a Nokia phone - Nokia 7 plus to be exact.

Nnabazz, 30 Oct 2020Please I need an honest opinion Should I go for this or t... moreIs that even a choice? Of course go for Galaxy Note 9. It has an AMOLED display, OIS on 2 rear cameras, stereo speakers, IP rating, etc. A flagship is always better than a midranger even if the former is already 2 years old.

Carol, 31 Oct 2020Yeah, and the OS is full of garbage.Android One is amazing. Feels clean and fast. I have a Nokia 8 Sirocco. My only gripe is is with the jump from Android v9 to v10, I lost RAW camera access, which made the Google Camera App stop working, so my pictures, especially low light, are lower quality now. Open Camera works great though and is a good compromise.
