The editors didn't like
You might never find all the features
Display can crush shadows in movies
Camera could be better with HDR
Price
Battery life fell short of last year's model in our early tests
And the Galaxy S9 Plus suffers from the same underbaked extras as the smaller Galaxy S9. The dual-aperture camera tends to overexpose low-light photos in auto mode
Camera often takes washed out photos
Pixel 2 takes noticeably better photos
Nothing except the camera is new
Iterative upgrade
AR Emoji are just bad
Some lag with Samsung's software
Battery life isn't as good as last year's
Very expensive
Average battery life
'Intelligent Scan' is glitchy
Duplicate apps - and Bixby still needs work
Rating
Poor quality photos on auto
Bixby is still annoying
Not all that different to S8 Plus
AR Emoji mode is overrated
Expensive for 0.4 inches of extra screen
Expensive
Pricey for a phone that feels too similar to last year
Best allrounder, Camera innovation with variable aperture, Great design, Software brings secure features like Secure Folder, S8complaints fixed
Large, slippery and fragile, Camera needs update for low light, AR Emoji needs work, Version of Android Oreo already outdated, Inteligent Scan needs update
To conclude our Samsung Galaxy S9+ review, I think it's important to point out why this phone exists. Samsung really wants to offer the full package. The best all rounder. A phone that excels in everything, and that's also delightful to use. In that respe...

Brights and vivid colors, Generally good target exposure and fast exposure transition, Stable and fast autofocus, Good noise reduction all conditions, Good stabilization

Abstract: It's fair to say that the Galaxy S9's development has proved leakier than a bullet-riddled bucket, with rumours, specs and spy-shots giving us almost every iota of information on the phone ahead of its formal launch at Mobile World Congress.Thankfully, b...

Abstract: It's hard to knock Samsung for playing it safe with the Galaxy S9+. By all accounts, the South Korean company nailed it with last year's S8, and by building on what made that iteration so great, you can bet that the S9+ is going to be one of the best smar...
Super Slow-mo mode is great (when it works), One of the best Android cameras out there, Build quality is superb
Looks the same as the S8/S8+, Glossy body isn't for everyone, AR Emoji are lacklustre
"While it's difficult to find a significant fault with the S9, it clearly isn't as exciting as other Android devices on the market, or even the S7 or S8 were when they were first released."...
