My parents have the note 9 and me and my brother have the s9. All of us have horrible battery issues as well as randomly calling the last person. If 4 people out of millions are having the same issues, I would find it to be extremely common.
Ok, since you didn't specify in the post, are you calling the last person that you texted?? Because if you are, you didn't read my post directly above this one. Samsung has a feature that you can turn on/off. (It's on by default) Where if you are texting someone and you need to talk to them, you simply hold the phone to your ear and it dials automatically. The sensor senses your head and dials. It also detects your pocket if you put it in there. It detects your table if you set it face down on the table. On mine, if I was in my easy chair and I dropped it on my chest, it would dial. If you are texting someone and set the phone down on the arm of the chair, it will dial that person.
To fix, go to Settings>Advanced Features>Motions and Gestures>Direct Call and turn that off.
Also go to Settings>Display>Accidental touch Protection and turn that off to prevent accidently activating any buttons while it's in your pocket.
Battery issue is also common. After an update, it might take a few days to settle down. If it doesn't, backup your data, do a factory reset and restore your phone data. Ever since my Note 3 I had years ago, after an update, I've usually had to do a factory reset to get everything perfect.
