Numbers that that the S9 and S9+ just were never able to get close to

The editors didn't like
When's it coming? Who knows! Samsung certainly isn't saying
And I expect this phone won't get it until next year
Justified or not
$1000 is a lot of money for any smartphone
The placement is terrible. It's not as bad as the Note8's - next to the camera
The price is incredibly high
New S-Pen features require developer integration
Camera fine photo detail can still leave a lot to be desired
Front-facing portrait mode is bad
Samsung 2018 camera interface is not a great design
Samsung Galaxy Note 9
It's expensive
It still runs Android Oreo and probably will for a while
Bixby isn't as good as Google Assistant and you can't turn off the button any more
Design feels stale
Selfie camera could be better
Face recognition unlocks the phone even with eyes closed

Very expensive
Sometimes funky video OIS
Fingerprint magnet
Expensive
Bixbutton can't be disabled
Bixis also bad
Facebook is pre-installed and can't be removed
The Galaxy Note 9 is very expensive
And offers few real innovations over last year's Note 8. The fingerprint reader is uncomfortably close to the camera
Quick Charge 2.0 isn't fast enough
That price tag
Speakers should be better considering size
Bixby is primarily a punchline
Really expensive
Doesn't ship with Android 9 Pie
Hit-or-miss camera AI features
Still on Oreo
Bixby still isn't great
Fast charging needs an update
Casing is still a fingerprint magnet
Needs a learning curve to truly master every trick available
Conservative design
We say Samsung's Galaxy Note9 soundly thumps all comers with chart-topping specifications
Amazing cameras

Niche upgrades over Galaxy S9+
Disappointing AR Emoji
$1
000+ price tag is eye-watering
Samsung's software can be frustrating
Bixby still underwhelms
Bad dynamic range (HDR)
Food Mode can make images look warm
Over-processing can hurt detail
High price tag
Large
Unwieldy size
Duplicate apps and extra features that don't add much value
Launches with Android Oreo
Glass back is a fingerprint graveyard
Pricing is very high
Approaching the range some users may pass
Bixby (and its button) is improved but is still not going to be for everyone
Ships with outdated Android Oreo
Bixby is wack
Loss of detail in low-light conditions
Chroma and luminance noise slightly visible in low light
Abstract: 連日連日iPhone XSのニュースが続いています。筆者はメインスマートフォンがGalaxy Noteのため、特に気にすることもなく発表会の動画も数日後にようやく見たくらいでした。なにせiPhone XR/XSの発表日も筆者はロサンゼルスにいましたが、Mobile World Congress Americas 2018（MWCA）を取材中だったのです。MWCAは世界初の5Gサービス開始のアナウンスに会場がわいている状況で、会場内は「右も左も5G、5G」てな状況。新型iPhoneの話題は皆無でした。 とこ...
