Thinking of getting the samsung note 9.
Do you think it's going to be to big to use on the parks

Surely only you can answer this.

nah i dont think so at all!

I'm an apple guy but we get all the handsets in work to try with our cloud services so we have a pre-release of the note and it's great tbh

If I wasn't an apple guy, I'd be very tempted by the note (other than not getting timely android updates would kill me so I'd probably have to get the google phones instead).

anyway, the way they've done the screen makes it feel a lot smaller than it is! I've been carrying it around in my shirt pocket all week with no problems at all.

So for me, no, not too big

well it's an expensive handset but you're getting a lot really. I really like the pen although whether I'd use it is another question. Something my iphone doesnt currently have though ;-)

In fact one of the coolest parts for me v my iphone was that the screen is always on showing important info and even in that state you can quickly jot something on the screen.

Very impressive handset (even if it isn't Apple ;-)

Was on the iPhone for 10 years and wanted to try an android so got the s8 and was pleased with it. Would I go back to apple. Maybe not

it's definitely a personal taste thing. Although I love the iphone, I can't argue about the restrictive nature and as a techie, lack of wifi analyser etc. is annoying.

I had android back in the galaxy s2 days and was happy enough but since then I've tried several times to see what it's like v apple ios and just think ios is nicer and smoother.

...but still, the screen in the note is brill, the pen is excellent and useful, the always on screen tech. There's a lot to like with the note 9 and I cant really think of anything the iphone can do that the note 9 can't but I can definitely think of things the note 9 can do over the iphone.

To be honest, it's only marginally larger than my S9+ and I find that perfectly manageable.
