Samsung Galaxy S9+ Philippines Price Starts at Php 52,990 : Actual Photos, Full Specs
The all-new Samsung Galaxy S9+ - simply put - is the larger and more powerful version of the Samsung Galaxy S9 2018 flagship Android smartphone.
But perhaps, more importantly, this model has better imaging capabilities as it sports two cameras at the back instead of just one. This stellar enhancement also makes it a more exciting model compared to its equally gorgeous predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S8+ from 2017.
Larger Display for Better Viewing Experience
On the outside, the most notable feature of the Galaxy S9+ compared to the regular model is its Curved 6.2-inch WQHD SuperAMOLED Infinity Display, which is quite simply a sight to behold.
The sheer screen space definitely makes viewing experience more enjoyable whether you're browsing photos or watching movies.
The Same Stellar Design and Build
Frankly, the Galaxy S9+ looks a lot like the Galaxy S8+. They have more or less the same footprint and their aluminum-and-glass exteriors share the same IP68 Certified Water and Dust Resistance.
There are subtle differences that should be highlighted, however. For one, this new model has a more reassuring heft when you hold it and the Fingerprint Scanner at the back has been re-positioned closer to the middle to make it easier to touch using the pointer finger when holding the phablet.
Ground-breaking Imaging Capabilities
Just like the best-selling Samsung Galaxy Note8, Galaxy S9+ has a Dual Camera Module that enables 2X Lossless Telephoto Zoom and Live Focus Effect that beautifully blurs out the background of the subject to deliver more appealing portrait shots.
On top of that, just like the Galaxy S9, this phablet's 12MP main camera with f/1.5 Aperture, Optical Image Stabilization, and Dual Pixel PDAF now delivers better shots even low light and provides enhanced color replication and sharpness.
The variable aperture design also helps you to capture the perfect image in various settings. Set it wide when you need to let in as much light as possible and make it tight or slower when snapping landscape photos in broad daylight.
Super Slow-Mo
Vloggers and Youtube video creators will surely love the fact that the Galaxy S9+ - like the S9 - can record HD videos at a whopping 960 frames per second! That's right: This phablet can give you luscious super slow motion clips that you can use to make your videos more dramatic and eye-catching.
Emojis That Look Like You
Create AR Emojis and AR Avatar Videos that have your facial features! You can even add accessories and change your wardrobe to make them even more personalized. Then, send them to your friends for good laugh.
Powerful Internal Specs
Samsung Galaxy S9+ runs its Android 8.0 Oreo OS (skinned by Samsung Experience interface) with the company's most powerful and most energy-efficient chipset ever - the Exynos 9810 Octa that incorporates Mali-G72 MP18 GPU, has 6GB of RAM for ultra-smooth multi-tasking experience, and comes with 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB onboard storage options that are expandable via the hybrid nanoSIM slot that can also take in microSD cards.
With this set of innards, Samsung Galaxy S9+ is easily one of the most powerful Android smartphones that has been released to date. For the end user, this means the absolute best 3D gaming experience and stutter-free mobile experience anytime, anywhere.
More Secure Than Ever
Aside from having the Fingerprint Biometric Scanner, Galaxy S9+ also comes with the company's Knox enterprise-ready, defense-grade security platform. On top of that, this model - like the S9 - features Intelligent Scan that uses both the Iris Scanner and Facial Recognition for unlocking the device more securely.
Two Loud Speakers
This handset has a loud speaker located at the rear - beside the USB Type C port - and another one that's incorporated in the earpiece section - to deliver a far more enjoyable audio experience
