Comparison review

The Galaxy S6 has an overall score of 87.4, which is a bit better than Galaxy Note9's 87.1 global score. The Galaxy S6 is an older cellphone than Galaxy Note9, but Samsung could make it a lot thinner and much lighter. The Galaxy S6 has a brighter display than Galaxy Note9, because although it has a bit worse resolution of 2560 x 1440 and a lot smaller screen, it also counts with a little bit greater pixel amount in each display inch.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 has a little faster processor than Samsung Galaxy Note9, because although it has a smaller amount of RAM memory, and they both have a Octa-Core CPU, the Samsung Galaxy S6 also counts with a 64-bit CPU and an additional graphics co-processor. Galaxy Note9 takes clearer videos and photos than Samsung Galaxy S6, because although it has a worse 3840x2160 video resolution and a back camera with much less megapixels resolution, it also counts with a way bigger diafragm aperture to capture better images and videos in low light environments and a larger sensor taking better quality videos and pictures.

Galaxy Note9 counts with a much greater storage capacity to install games and applications than Galaxy S6, and although they both have exactly the same 128 GB internal memory capacity, the Galaxy Note9 also has a SD card slot that admits up to 512 GB. Samsung Galaxy Note9 counts with a much longer battery performance than Galaxy S6, because it has a 57 percent bigger battery size.

Despite of being the best phone between the ones we are comparing, the Galaxy S6 is also a bargain compared to the other devices.
