Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus Details

Introduction

The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus has all the flaws eliminated that were present in its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus. The bezel-less design is the main design attraction of the device, which not only makes the device more compact but it also gives the device a futuristic look that was seen earlier in the prototypes. The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus can be used under water, thanks to the waterproof design that has an IP68 rating.

Display & Camera

The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus has a 6.2-inch QHD+ Super AMOLED display. The display is curved from both the sides, making it bezel-less and unique. The display is HDR capable, and it supports HDR10 content. The device has its curved display protected with the Corning Gorilla Glass 5 same as on the rear. Just like the iPhone 7 Plus, the S9 Plus has a 3D-touch technology too; it can sense the amount of pressure applied on the screen. The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus is the first 'S' series device from the company to feature a dual-camera setup. Among the two cameras on the back, the first camera has a normal 24mm viewing angle, and the other camera has a zoomed angle for capturing the distant subjects. The camera UI has various shooting modes including a 'Pro Mode' in which the user can customise various aspects of the imaging such as ISO, shutter speed, and focus. The front-facing 8MP camera is aided by display flash and autofocus.

Hardware & Software

The flagship devices from Samsung are always packed with an enormous amount of processing power, and the Galaxy S9 Plus is no different. The device packs Exynos 9810 octa-core processor built on 10nm technology for low power consumption and high performance. Aiding the flagship processor is 6GB of RAM. The internal storage is 64GB that can be expanded through the hybrid SIM card slot up to 4TB. The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus is powered by the Android 8.0 Oreo. However, the device will soon be updated to the Android O operating system.

Battery & Connectivity

The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus has the same 3,500mAh battery that was used in its predecessor. The device uses Samsung's proprietary 'Adaptive Fast Charge' to charge the device under 100 minutes. The device also supports wireless fast charging. The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus provides with faster internet connectivity with the help of its 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi ac, and dual-SIM 4G LTE with VoLTE.
