The update is currently rolling to Android 10 for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 the end. Users in Germany and Austria should find it shortly on their own device - but it could take a few weeks as usual.

With the latest version of Android, Samsung seems to have gotten faster at distributing updates. In the long update list, it is now the turn of the Galaxy Note 9, which is now receiving the update. If you follow that Samsung update plan, the aim is to have all supported devices updated to the latest version by September 2020. The update takes around 1,9 GB - it is downloaded as usual in the system settings.

These are the innovations

The update brings the One UI to version 2 and the security patch level of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to December 2019. In addition, Android 10 is of course installed. These are the changes (according to the Samsung changelog):

General:

  • Numerous security improvements.
  • Optimizations for foldable smartphones.
  • Optimizations for 5G smartphones and the WLAN security standard WPA3.

Dark mode:

  • Android 10 will include a dark mode that can be used system-wide. With this setting (also known as dark mode), the background of apps is displayed in black and the text is then displayed in white. This can be easy on the eyes and reduce the consumption of the battery.

Share passwords:

  • The password for a WiFi network can now be shared with others very easily and quickly. A QR code containing the password is generated in the corresponding settings. If this code is scanned by another device, it can then log into the WiFi network.

  • Symbols, symbol colors, fonts can be customized even more individually. In addition, there will be new wallpapers for your smartphone.
