The eagerly awaited Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is expected to launch earlier than usual this year as Samsung adjusts its roadmap to accommodate the foldable Galaxy X's release next year. With the Note 9 now expected to launch in late July or August, a photo and a video of two different screen protectors both come to the same conclusion. There are changes to the sensors at the top of the phone with a little more space seen between some of the cutouts. In addition, a few sensors will apparently be larger than the ones employed last year, and the bezels appear to be thinner (especially on top and bottom).
The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 could be unveiled on July 29th (hence the aforementioned late July or August release) and there is talk that we could see a variant of the phone with 8GB of RAM and 512GB of native storage. Also, a 4000mAh battery could be included. Not only would that be great for consumers, it will also mean that Samsung is no longer gun-shy about putting a large cell inside a Galaxy Note phone.
And not that this really is pertinent to the story, but what happened to the term "phablet?"
