Samsung Galaxy is one of the most anticipated smartphones every year. The technical features and design are always appreciated and evolve every year to offer unique performance and usability to users. Introducing the Galaxy S9+!
This new smartphone is an update of last year's Galaxy S8+.
Design and ergonomics:
We can't fault the design of the S9+. Equipped with a glass back, metal edges and a 6.2-inch (15, 7 cm) edge-to-edge display occupying 84% of the front surface, the build quality expresses high-end and futuristic design. Samsung has not taken any risks this year, since the design is the same as the previous device. This year it is more of an improvement/optimization of the previous model.
The mobile is reserved for lovers of large screens, the comfort of viewing and reading are well present. Technically, it remains impeccable with the IP 68 waterproof validation (resistant to all types of liquid and dust up to 1.30 meters for 30 minutes), its USB Type-C port and wireless charging support. All the technologies of the moment are available for the happiness of users.
The front and rear surfaces are made of Gorilla Glass 5, which is a higher level of resistance to shocks. We appreciate the curved side with light and thin edges giving the impression of an endless screen.
The fingerprint reader is more accessible this year, it is now located under the camera. The cameras placed on the front panel also allow unlocking by facial recognition (iris + face). Beware, however, the fingerprint sensor is better in most cases. Indeed, facial recognition is less interesting in cases where you wear sunglasses or if the device is not in the right axis. We therefore advise you to use the good old fingerprint method, which is more secure.
The device is available in 64, 128 and 256 GB of storage space, you can also add more space with the microSD card reader.
Screen:
Let's talk about the screen of this Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus. Samsung is among the best in this area, no need to remind the manufacturer's place in the world of televisions. This smartphone has a 6.2-inch OLED screen of excellent quality.
This year, the manufacturer has taken the screen of the S8+ and slightly improved it to offer a near perfect rendering: the best colorimetry of the market, a color temperature that reaches the 6575 K and a delta E to 1.3.
The brightness reaches 676 cd/m² in full brightness for optimal readability and can go down to 1.6 cd/m² in low light to preserve the retina of users. The touch delay is 74 ms, a good score.
The comfort on this large screen is notable. You will love watching your favorite movies and series on this device.
Performance:
The Galaxy S9+ is powered by a Soc Exynos 9810 processor backed by 6GB of RAM. The software optimization allows to offer a more than satisfactory performance in most of the uses, without any felt slowdown.
Compared to the little brother S9 "classic" which can reach 38 ° C, the S9+ manages better heating (36% maximum) through better heat dissipation. It should be noted that this management is more practical on a large format model.
Thanks to its high-end components, this smartphone will have no trouble running all the games in the Play Store. Immersion is optimal thanks to the large, curved, edge-to-edge screen.
Audio:
The power of the "Dolby Atmos" stereo speakers will be more than enough in most uses and the quality is quite good. The 3.5mm mini jack is still part of the device, which will appeal to the biggest fans who will want to plug in their wired headphones or earphones. The current trend is to remove this port smartphone.
Photo:
This year, Samsung highlights the evolution of its camera with, in particular, the variable aperture to optimize the depth of field and capture the maximum light depending on the environment.
The image processing remains the same and the main sensor is identical to the S9. However, the "+" version has a second photo sensor of 6 mm f/2.4.
In daylight, the rendering is very appreciated with details present, a perfect color reproduction. In low light, there is a significant improvement. The smoothing becomes light and loses less detail in the shot.
The 8MP front sensor is correct, but beware of overexposure that tends to blur the subjects.
In video, the S9+ can shoot in 4K 60 fps but prefer FULL HD 30 fps to enjoy all the advantages of the smartphone, such as stabilization or autofocus tracking.
The new Super-Slow Motion feature at 960 frames per second allows for impressive slow-motion shots.
The 2x optical zoom is possible thanks to the second camera.
You can also enjoy Samsung's AR Emojis, the Korean answer to Apple's Animojis. This is a feature that allows you to modify the user's face with masks (animals, cartoons, accessories) via the front camera.
Autonomy
The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is equipped with a 3,500 mAh battery.
The autonomy of this new model is slightly improved compared to last year. Count about 13 hours with a "standard" use: SMS, calls, streaming, internet and Always On activated. The smartphone lasts a day and a half with moderate use. We note a gain of one hour of autonomy.
We appreciate the compatibility of the device with fast charging (fast charge) which allows to fill the battery in about 2 hours.
