Samsung Galaxy S9 – Battery Life Battery life on the Samsung Galaxy S9 is almost exactly the same as last year's S8. Even with the switch to a more efficient mobile chip, it's a shame Samsung hasn't really been able to squeeze any more juice from the 3000...
The camera takes great quality shots, even in low light and is also capable of capturing superslowmo and ultra HD video, You can make AR Emoji on the camera, these are animated caricatures of your face that can be used as stickers, gifs or video clips, Wa
You'll need to fork out £130 more to get a depth of field function on the camera that blurs the background and keeps the subject in focus, It's very expensive, The battery life is disappointing compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8
Good looking and simple to use, the Samsung Galaxy S9 performs really well. However, it really doesn't offer enough 'wow factor' when compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8. It's not a must-have but would be a good upgrade from a phone that you've had for two...

Not all that different to S8, AR Emoji a little limited
The Samsung Galaxy S9's party piece is a seriously impressive camera, but there's much more than a passing resemblance to the Galaxy S8 which is now cheaper. It may make the S9 slightly harder to justify, but it's still set to be an excellent smartphone...

12MP rear camera with dual-aperture technology, Still fabulous Super AMOLED 18.5:9 QHD+ screen, AR Emoji, while not perfect, are lots of fun
Similar specs to the Galaxy S8
Samsung has always produced awesome flagship Android phones from a pure hardware point of view. Just look at last year's Galaxy S8, which not only blew all other Android phones released at the time out of the water but, in many cases, is only now been cau...

The Samsung Galaxy S9 is all about the camera and, though it looks good, I don't think it's going to be quite enough to justify the £50 price hike this year. £739 is a lot to pay for a phone that's only slightly different to last year's offering.Given tha...

The Samsung Galaxy S9 is not so different from the S8, apart from its upgraded camera functions. However, that doesn't mean it's a failed device. Quite the opposite in fact. We loved the S8, so it's nice to see that Samsung hasn't changed the things that...
