It sports a dual-camera setup with 12 MP camera as the primary shooter while in the front you get an 8 MP selfie lens. It has a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner as well.

In fact, it has a very capable processor by 2020 standards as the latest Galaxy Note 10 Lite also comes with the Exynos 9810 processor under the hood.

And in a recent development, Galaxy Note 9 now supports the Phone Screen feature which allows you to use your Galaxy phone’s applications on the PC directly via a WiFi connection.
