The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is launching in the coming week and the company has already started its reservations in the U.S. None of the teasers from the company have revealed the appearance of the smartphone A pre-order page for the Galaxy Note 9 had surfaced for some time on Samsung’s website for New Zealand. It featured a non-functional pre-order button and a rear image of the Note 9. The webpage has been taken down, but the render of the smartphone has been captured since it was available for some time.

The rear view of the smartphone shows that its design is not very different from the predecessor model. On the Galaxy Note 8, the dual camera and fingerprint scanner were placed on the same line like the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+. To prevent users from smearing the dual cameras while accessing the fingerprint scanner, Samsung has repositioned the latter by placing it below the camera module. That’s only major change that can be seen on the entire design of the phone.

The bottom edge of the Galaxy Note 9 features a compartment for S Pen, an external speaker, USB-C port and a 3.5mm audio jack. Even though it is a blue variant of the smartphone, it features a distinctive yellow colored S Pen. Recent reports have revealed that it is the only variant that will be arriving with a different colored stylus. It was revealed in the previous month through a firmware leak that S Pen exists in colors like black, gray, violet/purple, blue and brown which suggested that Note 9 may also arrive in same color variants.
