Comparison review
Samsung Galaxy Note9 is slightly better than the Galaxy S25, getting a score of 87.1 against 82.6.

Galaxy Note9 has a much greater performance than Galaxy S25, although it has a lower amount of RAM memory, they both have 8 cpu cores.
Samsung Galaxy S25 takes a lot better photos and videos than Galaxy Note9, because although it has a tinier diafragm aperture which is not good for low-light photography and video, it also counts with a much bigger back camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors, a much better 7680x4320 video definition and a lot more mega pixels camera in the back.
The Galaxy Note9 features a much bigger storage for applications and games than Galaxy S25, and although they both have the same internal memory capacity, the Galaxy Note9 also has a slot for an SD memory card that admits up to 512 GB. Samsung Galaxy Note9's battery lifetime is just as good as Galaxy S25's battery performance.
