Samsung Galaxy Note 9 price in Malaysia starts from RM1599, and the spec sheet still holds up decently for a 2018 flagship. It runs on the Exynos 9810 chipset paired with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, with storage options going up to 512GB if you skip the microSD card entirely. The 6.4-inch Super AMOLED screen pushes a 1440 x 2960 resolution, which is sharper than most phones released years after it.

The dual rear camera setup pairs a 12MP wide lens with a variable f/1.5-2.4 aperture and a 12MP telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom, both with OIS. Battery capacity sits at 4000mAh with 15W wired charging and wireless charging support. The body is IP68 rated for dust and water resistance, and it comes with the Bluetooth-enabled S Pen stylus that this Note series is built around.
