Apple recently became a $1 trillion company, fueled partly by the growth from its iPhone. In contrast, its top competitor in smartphones, Samsung, has been dealing with slowing revenue from its signature Galaxy S9 smartphone.

To prompt more sales, Samsung on Thursday unveiled the Galaxy Note9, its latest big-screen smartphone (also known as a “phablet”), which comes equipped with a digital pen. Like Apple’s top-selling iPhone X, the Galaxy Note9 costs about $1,000. It arrives in stores on Aug. 24.

Samsung introduced the new Note a few weeks earlier than it normally would, as a way to drum up awareness for the device.

For a phone this pricey, the new features of the Note9 are hardly cutting edge. Samsung highlighted the Galaxy Note9’s exceptionally large battery, which it said would let people talk, text and play games all day. The company also emphasized faster speeds and the device’s larger 6.4-inch screen (the last Galaxy Note measured 6.3 diagonal inches).
