The Galaxy S6 construction is thinner and way lighter than the Galaxy Note9, despite of the fact that it was released many years before. The Samsung Galaxy S6 features just a little better hardware performance than Galaxy Note9, because although it has lesser RAM memory, and they both have the same number of cores, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also counts with a graphics co-processor and a 64-bits processing unit.

Samsung Galaxy S6 has a more vivid screen than Galaxy Note9, because although it has a bit lower 2560 x 1440 resolution and a lot smaller screen, it also counts with a little better pixel amount in each display inch. The Galaxy Note9 counts with much more storage capacity for apps and games than Galaxy S6, and although they both have exactly the same internal storage capacity, the Galaxy Note9 also has a slot for an external memory card that allows up to 512 GB.

Samsung Galaxy Note9 takes a bit better photos and videos than Galaxy S6, because although it has a lower (4K) video resolution and a lot lower 12 megapixels resolution back-facing camera, it also counts with a much bigger aperture to take better captures and video in low-light situations and a larger camera sensor shooting better quality videos and pictures.

The Samsung Galaxy Note9 counts with a really longer battery duration than Samsung Galaxy S6, because it has 4000mAh of battery capacity.

Even being the best phone between the ones we are comparing, the Galaxy S6 is also a bargain compared to others, making this phone a great choice.
