Samsung is giving strong indications that the Galaxy Note 9 will be arriving on August 9.
Note 9 launching on August 9. You dig?
Samsung has sent out invitations for an event on August 9th for a new Galaxy device — and while it doesn’t call out the Note 9 by name, the picture of a Note stylus plus the timing means it’s almost certain there will be the launch of the company’s next flagship device.
The IV gotten by TechCity only read “On August 9, Samsung Electronics will welcome a new member to the premium Galaxy family”.
Then there is this video:

Another thing about the IV is the color yellow. Will the new device come in yellow color?
Early June, Bloomberg was the first platform to first report the August 9 date and the Note 9 itself recently cleared the FCC. These developments suggest a launch event was happening soon.
The Note 9 rumors suggest it’ll be a similar upgrade to the Note 8 as the Galaxy S9 was to last year’s S8, with a focus on an improved camera rather than a completely overhauled design. The invitation also seems to hint at a new yellow color for the device.
Given that Samsung also tends to use the Note line as a platform for bigger hardware experiments, though, it’s likely we could see some other additions — like say the long-rumored in-display fingerprint scanner. Whatever the case, we’ll find out in just a few weeks when Samsung’s event rolls around (or, if past history is any indication, when the leaks start to come out).
