Best Phone Deals: The Best Price Yet for the Galaxy Note9

By opening a new line of service, you can get this Editors' Choice deal – the best price we've seen for the new Note9 yet, before factoring in the cost of the plan. CNET called it one of the year's best phones, noting the top tier specs and S Pen that functions as a selfie remote. Features include Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 8-core (2.8GHz quad + 1.7GHz quad) processor, 6.4" QHD 2960x1440 super AMOLED touchscreen with Gorilla Glass 5, 8GB RAM, 128GB storage, dual 12-megapixel rear cameras & 8-megapixel front camera, 802.11ac wireless, Bluetooth 5.0, AKG stereo speakers, and Android 8.1.

We're preparing for Apple Keynote week, where they'll likely announce the iPhone XI, complete with DNA-scan activation and eight brand new bespoke accessory ports.
