    [Poll Results!] Are you using Night mode on Android Pie on your Galaxy S9 or Note 9?

    Android Pie for the Galaxy devices brings many new features, along with a major upgrade for the user interface. One UI is beautiful, and while some aspects may not appeal to everyone (like the default app icons), One UI manages to be fresh yet familiar at the same time. Perhaps the best part is the new inbuilt Night mode, which makes the entire UI darker to make it easy on your eyes in the dark, also removing the need to download dark third-party themes from the Samsung Themes store.

    It's not like One UI doesn't look great in the default light theme. But Night mode makes it even better, especially on those AMOLED displays found on Samsung flagships. That said, not everyone is fond of dark themes on their phones, and we were wondering just how many of our readers are using Night mode on their Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+, or Galaxy Note 9. Let us know by voting in the poll below, then taking to the comments section to further discuss your opinion of Night mode.

    Don't have Pie? Check out how Night mode looks on Android Pie in these screenshots and don't forget that you can also use SamMobile with a dark theme! Galaxy S9 owners may want to keep an eye out on this article to see if their country has started receiving the final update.

    Results: A whopping 51 percent of voters say they use Night mode all the time, which is the camp most of us here at SamMobile also fall in. Merely 7 percent say they prefer the regular light theme, while 11 percent say they keep switching between regular and Night mode. And 32 percent voters are looking forward to Pie exactly because of Night mode, so this is clearly one feature that almost everyone loves about Samsung's version of Android Pie.
