Even more important than that, however, is what the display

Even more important than that, however, is what the display looks like on Galaxy S9 and S9+ variants. Here's what you'll notice:

The display is an IPS panel, which is a true IPS panel. It's a bit of a stretch to say that the Galaxy S9's IPS display is a true IPS display, because that's actually not true. It's a lot more of a traditional IPS display, but the top panel has better contrast, and the display has the most contrast ratio, too.

In other words, the Galaxy S9 has a better contrast ratio than the Galaxy S8, and the Galaxy S9 Plus has an even better contrast ratio.

And, of course, the display's screen is also a lot more saturated. It's more saturated, too, and that makes sense, because it's thinner than other phones. There's no reason not to like it, though.

The display has a lot of pixels, and it does it well, especially when you look at it with your naked eye. The Note 9 has a 16:9 aspect ratio, for some reason. It does have a pixel density of 1,100, but when you're looking at a smartphone that's about 100 percent pixel dense (like my phone), you can see a pixel density of .004 pixels per inch. That's a difference of 1,500 pixels per inch compared to the Galaxy S8 and S9.

Samsung has been making the Note 9 the best smartphone ever made, for the most part. And while the S9's screen is very impressive, one should be careful not to overthink it, because as you move your finger around a lot, it's actually making you want to touch it more. And that's how I found my Galaxy Note9, too.
