The company's new phablet -- unveiled Thursday during an Unpacked event at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York -- sports various tweaks from last year's Note 8, like a bigger battery, more internal storage and expanded S Pen stylus capabilities. But one of the most notable changes from the Note 9's predecessor is the 9's increased price.

Samsung said the 128GB version of the phone, its lowest offering, will cost $1,000 when it hits stores Aug. 24. The 512GB Note 9 model will set buyers back $1,250.
