Samsung‘s Note 8 was one of the best phones of 2017, yet I couldn’t help but think it felt a little tame. When the Note series has long represented overpowered specs and features, Samsung seemed to play it safe in order to prevent another disaster like the Note 7’s.

With the Note 9, Samsung is ready to be more daring again. Announced today at an event in Brooklyn, it has pretty much the same glassy design Samsung has been using since the S6 – attractive, but a little stale. You’d be hard-pressed to tell it apart from its predecessor, but while it may look a lot like the Note 8, it’s what’s inside that counts. Pardon the cliché.
