Doesn't do enough to better last year's Galaxy S8
Improved camera still can't quite beat the best
Hard to tell the S9 apart from the S8
Fingerprint sensor still a bit close to the camera
Audio still lacks the last word in timing
Similar specs to the Galaxy S8
No improvement in battery life
Bixby is still not very useful
Intelligent scan has high failure rate
Battery life is lower than competition
Slow Android updates
Camera not as versatile as S9 Plus
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

Abstract: Galaxy S9 and S9+ reviews are officially out, and they're mostly positive. The consensus is that Samsung's latest smartphones are iterative but improved versions of its already-impressive Galaxy S8 devices. We've linked a handful of the reviews below...

Abstract: Samsung and Apple. Apple (AAPL) and Samsung. Every year the tech behemoths play the same tit for tat game with their flagship smartphones: the Galaxy S series and iPhone. But with their handsets coming closer and closer to parity, the companies are turnin...
The Infinity Display is even better than the one on the S8, Camera takes fantastic pics in all kinds of light, Fingerprint sensor is in a much better location
Camera features like Dual Aperture and Super Slow-mo are a little gimmicky, AR Emoji is fun but not as advanced as Apple's Animoji, The single camera is great, but the S9+'s dual camera would have been better
The Galaxy S9 is an evolution rather than a revolution, but Samsung has upgraded it in all the right places...
Best screen available today, Every hardware feature you want, Standout camera that's easy to use, Good speakers and headphone jack, Top-notch internal specs, Available worldwide unlocked and from carriers
Software can be overwhelming, Just average battery life, Small GS9 lacks secondary camera, GS9+ is very expensive
It's become increasingly clear to me that the Galaxy S line of phones is no longer exciting, at least from the standpoint of those who strive to see the latest and greatest technology. They are, instead, becoming the new standard Android phone by which al...

Smart camera tech, Premium everyday experience, Superb performance
Limited evolution, Pricey
So, should you consider buying the Galaxy S9?If you already own last year's S8, we'd say take a pass. This blower doesn't offer any essential new features compared with the previous flagship, and it sure ain't cheap either. However, if you're tempted by a...

Galaxy S8's excellent design gets even better, Screen, performance & battery all solid, Camera capable of impressive low-light performance, Price is competitive
Intelligent Scan trades security for convenience, Super Slow-mo is 720p only and needs bright lighting, Bixby still feels gimmicky
The prevailing question for potential Galaxy S9 buyers is “has Samsung done enough to warrant an upgrade over the Galaxy S8?” The answer to that depends on where your priorities lie.So much of the Galaxy S8 look and feel has been carried over to this new...
I had hoped that, after exhaustively going over all the ways the S9 is new, I'd find the updates here to be more significant. But I still don't. The new camera features aren't must-haves unless you plan on shooting in darkness a lot, and you can get basic...

Abstract: Up to 400GBUp to 400GBThe Galaxy S9 and S9+ look like dead ringers for the Galaxy S8 and S8+, and I’m not complaining. Samsung says it made the bezels on the Infinity Display a bit narrower on the top and bottom while making the iris scanner above the sc...
