Samsung has officially unveiled the price and specifications for its new line up of smartphones Galaxy S9 and S9+. There is much design change compared to the Galaxy S8 which looks great still btw.
However this time they've upgraded a faster new processor, new camera technology, some nifty software tricks and also improvements to the phone security through the cliometrics.
The most requested change was the position of the fingerprint sensor which is now placed under the rear camera instead of beside it, so lower chance of smudging the camera of your oily fingers.
Speaking of the camera they added a variable aperture which can adapt to both low light and bright lighting. This improves good photos in both lighting conditions. In the video department, they also included a 960 fps slow motion video capture, something we all want in real life.
The selfie camera got an upgrade as well with an 8 megapixel that can now record 4k videos with autofocus. Your pimples are now on quad HD nice!
As for the core performance and software in packs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset or a Samsung Exynos 9810 chipset depending on the location, with a Mali-G72MP18 graphics processor and 4GB of RAM. The device is running Android 8.0 Oreo. There's also Samsung's attempt to copy Apple by introducing Animated avatars which looks like the user.
