I use the Jabra elite active 65t, it has the ability to press the button on the right ear bud to activate Google assistant. It works well, sound quality is good but not spectacular, you have to adjust the bass up quite a bit in their app, as if you use it in the music app, then play in your car it will be too much and you'll have to turn off the equalizer.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Accessories] finsmaniac02:
I'd like to second this guy's recommendation of the Senheiser Momentum True Wireless.

I have tried quite a few different "true wireless" sets... One was the liberty zolo+ (an anker brand), one is the Funcl A1, and another one that I can't remember. Nothing has come anywhere close to the sound quality that the senheisers have had. They truely sound like there is not a compromise on audio quality, and if that matters to you - they are the only choice.

Another thing that I have is the "Earstudio ES100" - https://www.amazon.com/EarStudio-ES100-24bit-High-Resolution-Bluetooth-Unbalanced/dp/B078H4YD2L

This thing is amazing. It received the bluetooth, goes digital to analog, and then amps it. you can then use any wired headset you want. This sounds awesome, you leave your device at 100 percent volume with it and then it handles the volume (this helps if you have any volume "steps" that seem like weird gaps). Has some nice hardware based equalizers, just all around awesome.

Both of these I think allow you to do the google assistant

For anyone who doesn't want to spend more than $50 here's the budget option : https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Signature-Bluetooth-Earbuds-Charging/dp/B07HGL3J31

It supports Google Assistance with 2 clicks on either side.

I've been using it for 2 weeks and so far it has been a pleasant experience, especially for that price alone. The main downside is the in-call audio is only mono, meaning only the right ear works, also buttons could have been easier to click though

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
I see on samsung.com that if you buy the AT&T version there, it is $300 off at 699. If I were to buy this, would it come from AT&T or Samsung? Would it have the uninstallable AT&T bloatware, facebook, etc?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Well. They ALL come from Samsung. If you order it from Samsung.com it will be shipped directly from Samsung.

As far as bloatware, are you looking at the ATT branded N960U or the factory unlocked N960U1?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
I understand Samsung makes them all. If you order from AT&T, they ship it from their stock. If you order from Samsung, I would expect it to come from Samsung. Common sense.

My question was if I order the AT&T version (not the unlocked version) from Samsung, are they already all set up with the uninstallable AT&T bloat? I imagine it would be the same as you would get ordering from AT&T, just trying to get clarification. This is just one of the points I'm weighing now that I'm looking for a new phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
You asked if it would come from Samsung or ATT. I was clarifying of you order from Samsung.com, it would ship from Samsung. Likewise, if you order from ATT, it ships from ATT. So I guess I don't understand why you asked if it would come from Samsung or ATT.

As far as bloatware, it depends on which one you buy. If you buy the ATT branded N960U from Samsung.com it will ship directly from Samsung, but it will be the same as buying from ATT. It will be an ATT branded N960U with all the bloatware.

If you order the Unlocked by Samsung N960U1, it will ship directly from Samsung and have no carrier bloatware.

That's why I asked which one you were looking at buying.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
lol, in my mind i was asking something different in that first part. Anyhow, you answered the question. So I guess it's $699 full of bloat or 899 no bloat...hmm. Another point for OP6T.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
buy the AT&t version for 699, and then flash the U1 firmware on it with Odin to get rid of all the bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
So is that a thing now? Using odin for that? I stopped buying Samsung phones when they started locking the bootloaders. Couldn't pass up the 8+ though with the newer design, but have hated that it's stuck with all that bloat. Disabling apps helps a little. I was under the impression we were pretty much stuck with stock firmware. I guess I haven't looked into that lately.

Any cons to flashing the new firmware? I bet there a thread somewhere, huh? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
LOL. It's been a thing for a while now. You could even flash the unlocked firmware on the S8/+. It won't unlock your bootloader and won't trip Knox, so you keep Samsung Pay.

I'm actually using an ATT 512GB N960U, running the U1 firmware, on T-Mobile. No issues at all. And yes there's plenty of info here on the forum on how to do it.

The most concise write up is actually in the Note 8 forums. It's the carrier switching thread. Same method. Just different files for the Note 9 vs the Note 8 obviously.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Cashreedhar:
I am using N960U1 firmware on AT&T Note 9 and using T-Mobile SIM. Even Wifi calling works. Firmware was flashed via Odin and I recieved 2 software updates from Samsung after I started using N960U1 firmware. I use VMWare Work profile for work emails and I can confirm Knox had no breach. Samsung Pay works as usual.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Awesome. Thanks guys! Got a little bit more research to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
But we warned if you buy a U1 from Samsung don't expect all ATT features to work out of the box. If I were you I'd buy the ATT branded one from Samsung. Then flash to u1 should you decide to do so.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Yeah, that's the only way I'd do it. It's only $699 for the AT&T version. Honestly, that's the only reason I'm considering this phone now. I was trying to decide decide the OP6T and the Pixel 3, then I saw this sale price today. If I were to get this phone, should I avoid doing any updates before i flash to U1, or possibly the new beta?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
If I didn't have one already, I'd jump on that ATT version for 699. But I think I did pretty good with a brand new ATT 512GB for $750 off FB marketplace. ;)

It doesn't matter if you accept updates or not. You can still use ODIN to flash to through U1 firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dcscorpio76:
My dude, it will have a **** ton of bloatware on it but you can use an app like Package Disabler pro to get rid of it. Also, if you get the AT&T 960U version, it'll have all of the awesome carrier features. You can still accomplish this with the unlocked U1 version which I have but you'll have to flash the U firmware then have an AT&T rep change the IMEI to match an actual AT&T branded phone. It's simple to do but you'll have to most likely make an in store appearance. You can skip all of that with the branded AT&T version but again you'll get a ton of bloatware! Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
The easier thing to do is to buy the ATT version then flash the U1 firmware. As far as bloatware, there's no difference between buying the U1, or buying the ATT U and then flashing the U1 firmware. It will get rid of ALL the carrier bloat and it will be the exact same as having a U1.

Then later if he wants to install the ATTA firmeare to get those carrier feetures back, there's no calling in and switching IMEIs or any of that garbage, because he already has an ATT device with a registered IMEI. And he saves $200.

It's why I bought an ATT version. I got it crazy cheap and knew I could just flash the U1 firmware, which I did immediately, then stuck my T-Mo SIM in it. Then if I ever switch to ATT (which I'm considering because of FirstNet), then I can just flash the ATT firmware and it will all work no problem.

There's literally NO advantage here to buying the U1.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Pulled the trigger. $699 was a pretty good deal. At $999, I would have bought the OP6T, but at only $120 more, I figured why the hell not?! I did go to Best Buy and 2 corporate stores to see if they would match, but no luck. The wait is going to be rough, as expected shipping date is next wednesday. I guess it gives me time to get a case or 2 and maybe some tempered glass.

Thanks for all the info.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ErebusRaze:
Negative. I preorded the AT&T version directly from Samsung.com. It came with maybe... 3 AT&T branded applications. They were actually usable ones. Samsung bloat FAR out numbers the carrier bloat. I was actually curious about this. I remember buying the Note 4 and Note 5 and there were at least 10 AT&T branded bloatware apps. So either they reduced them, or the ones directly from Samsung aren't loaded as much as ones directly from AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Yes the wait SUCKS! My first Note 9 was a 128GB T-Mo model I got from eBay for $700. Then an ATT 512GB showed up on FB Marketplace for $800. I don't need 512GB storage or 8GB RAM, but I just have to have the biggest and baddest so I offered him $750. It had some narly scratches on the screen, so he did an insurance claim (he worked for ATT), and got a brand new replacement device and sold it to me for $750. Both times though I had to wait for the device to be delivered. The waiting sucks, but oh so worth it. And at $699, it's a no brainer.

The OP6T is an intriguing phone and a great value. But so is the Pixel 3 XL IMO. But neither one does what the Note 9 does.

Nope. The ATT version shipped from Samsung.com are identical to the ones shipped from ATT. The carrier bloat is getting better across the board. Although I'd say ATT is still the worst. T-Mobile has the least carrier bloat. And of course if you flash the U1 firmware, all the carrier bloat goes bye-bye.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dcscorpio76:
Not in my case, I purchased the U1 and before I flashed the U firmware, I noticed hardly any bloat other than the usual gathering if Samsung apps like S Health, S Notes, Smart Switch etc. Now after I flashed the AT&T firmware the floodgates opened. Maybe it was just my luck but I got ride of everything I didn't want with Package Disabler Pro but I was simply warning the man. The bloat on my end was tremendous. At least 10 + carrier apps.

---------- Post added at 08:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

I agree in the case now that I've been introduced to flashing firmware. Good call!

---------- Post added at 08:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

Definitely a good call. I did the same so by the time the phone arrived I already had the tempered glass protector, case, wireless charging pad, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Wow, they shipped it already! However, it won't get here til Tuesday even though Brightpoint, where it shipped from, is literally 15 minutes down the road from me. It's stuck in fedex's crummy paws til then...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] metro44060:
I currently have sm-n960u from AT&T but when I put the Google project fi Sim in it says it's Network locked and requests a code. If I put the unlocked firmware on my phone will AT&T still be able to to shut it off or blacklist it if I stop paying my next installment payments?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Of course not, LOL. It's still locked to ATT. If you stop making your payments, they will blacklist the IMEI.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
The IMEI gets blacklisted, but your first obstacle appears to be sim locked device related. You'll need to pay cell unlocker net a fee to get it unlocked, then you'll be able to use another sim card. Then as time goes on it might get blacklisted which might prevent it from working on any USA network. Give it go and let us know how it goes. Since at the moment the phone seems useless in its current state for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] qnc:
That is great news!!! I just got a VZW branded one for the same deal, but thought it had to be unlocked to flash the U1.

to the original poster. I bought a second hand S8 to try it but it was carrier unlocked. Worked perfectly the VZW blaot was gone. I don't use Wifi calling I just need Data, Text , calls to work or did i say data, I use a lot of data.

hooking up my day old note now to unbrand. YAAAAH!!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
It doesn't have to be unlocked to flash different firmware. But that said, your Verizon model is carrier unlocked anyway.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
IDK about specific AT&T BLOATWARE, but I have the Verizon version and the only bloat app that I couldn't disable is VERIZON VOICE MAIL. The only apps that I couldn't uninstall but could disable are FLIP BOARD BRIEFING, CALLER ID and VERIZON CLOUD.

I am intrigued by the notion of flashing the unlocked version firmware, but like you, would have to do much research.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Well, after being held hostage by fedex all day, it was finally delivered! Charging it now while i run to get a cheap case at best buy to hold me over til the ones i ordered get here.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
So it's telling me there are no updates even though it's on August build. Anything I can do other than just flash U1? I was able to uninstall most of the junk. I may just hold off flashing, unless i can't get the updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Depends...are you wanting the U1 firmware, or do you want to keep the ATT firmware?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Tempered glass? You need to spend some time in the accessories section for the Note 9 ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
I figured since I was able to uninstall nearly all the bloat anyway, I figured I'd leave it stock AT&T for the time being while i finish reading everything about flashing. Again, it's been a few years since using odin and all that. Also, what all AT&T features would I lose? Wifi calling, visual voicemail?

It was pretty much the same deal for the S8+. I've got a cheap 2 pack of tempered glass on the way because they will get here before i leave town for a few days, but the whitestone i ordered won't.What do you suggest for screen protection? I shattered my S8+ with just one of those film protectors on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
Wait a day and see if it get the updates.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PuffinNugz:
Ok, i guess Ill be patient. lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Yeah, it may take some time for it to completely register with the network and pull updates.

Yes, with U1 you will lose WiFi calling, VoLTE (or advanced calling), RCS texting, and visual voicemail. But you can download the ATT visual voicemail app from the Play Store. You'll also lose that LOVELY ATT boot animation and jingle. I know that will be a huge loss, LOL.

As far as protection, I'm a minimalist usually. My Speck Grip case is my most rugged, and I only got it because it came with the phone. I usually use a Ringke Air, or just my cheap generic ultra thin TPU case.

For screen protector, I use a QiMai TPU screen protector. Tempered glass chips, cracks, is thick, has a rough edge, etc. Used to love them, but got sick of constantly replacing them. I'm more interested in scratch protection, so a thin film protector for me! If the screen breaks, that's what insurance is for. ;)

If you want super minimal, go to UBreakIFix and let them apply their $50 liquid screen protector. It's a nano liquid. Probably all snake oil, but if you break the screen, they replace the screen, frame, and battery for $20.

Not a lot of VZW bloat on the device. I was are to disable most
