While the camera specs of the two phones are almost identical — 8-megapixel front camera, dual 12-megapixel rear cameras — Samsung added a few new features to the Galaxy Note 9's camera.
The Galaxy Note 9's dual-camera system is getting Samsung's new camera feature called scene optimizer, which recognizes what kind of object you're photographing and adjusts the settings automatically to take the best shot.
The camera will also have flaw detection, which will let you know if the image is blurry, if the subject blinked, if there is a smudge on the lens, or if there is backlight impacting the image quality.
