The company has not yet said when they are going to launch this smartphone. In this article, I mentioned various functions and impressive performance this smartphone, but these are just expert rumors. As soon as we know new information about this smartphone, we will edit and add it.
Meet our preliminary review on Samsung Galaxy S9, where we will touch on information about this new product. Let's talk about the release date, discuss its characteristics, talk about the camera and display.
Samsung Galaxy S9 - Release Date, Specs, Display & Camera
The Galaxy S9 and S9 + phones will arrive after the Mobile Work Congress on February 26, with the phones expected to hit store shelves on March 16.But what should we expect from these two giants? They outward appearance will resemble a Galaxy S8 phone, only their cameras and processors will be much more powerful, plus a couple of pleasant surprises.
Based on various rumors and speculation, we can assume the following characteristics for S9 and S9 + phones. These characteristics may change, because there is still a lot of time until the end of February. In the meantime, here's a rough picture of what the new phones from Samsung will be like.
Galaxy S9 design and display
The Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 + phones will look exactly like their predecessors, and that's pretty good. We really liked the design of the Galax y S8 and S8 + phones, we especially liked this bezel-less display, and the gorgeous 2960x1440 pixel screen resolution on both phones. By the way, here's another surprise from Samsung: the fingerprint reader will now be under the camera lens, making it easier to reach. In the S8 phone, this reader was to the right of the camera lens.S9 and S9 + phones are expected to have the same Super AMOLED panels measuring 5.8 "and 6.2", respectively. However, we hope that Samsung will add brightness and color fidelity to its new flagships, because the iPhone X beat the Note 8 and S8 in these parameters. We also hope that Samsung will leave the headphone jack intact. This is huge Samsung advantage before own Apple login and other Android giants ( Google pixel 2 and Motorola Z2 Force).
Galaxy S9 camera
We've had thoughts that Samsung is going to update and improve the cameras in the Galaxy S9 and S9 + phones, and some information has recently confirmed this. Namely, the screenshot of the Galaxy S9 that appeared on the network shows that the phone has a 12-megapixel Super Speed DualPixel camera. We're not sure what the Super SPeed prefix means, but we can assume the S9 and S9 + cameras will shoot even faster and have faster focus than the S8 cameras.Even more interesting, the S9 phone appears to have two focal lengths: f / 1.5 and f / 2.4. It looks like an f / 1.5 aperture will appear when you are shooting in dark light. The rumored f / 2.4 aperture will allow the S9 to have a sharper depth of field.
The S9 + phone will be even better, rumored to have a second lens that will allow you to take 2x optical zoom when shooting and take the same portrait shots as in the phone. Galaxy Note 8. Additionally, the phone should have a "live focus" function that will allow you to control the "blur effect" parameter. As well as in Note phone 8, you can correct it both in real time and while editing a photo.
Samsung S9 Specs - Processor, RAM & Phone Storage
So far, Samsung has unveiled the S9 and S9 + phones with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of phone memory. Perhaps the company will offer other models of these phones, which will include more memory but these models will be more expensive. The phones will also have a microSD slot.And here's the news about the processor: the phones will be powered by the Snapdragon 845. This processor will not only run 25% faster than the Snapdragon 835 that was in the S8 phone, but the new processor will also have other advantages.
For example, the 845 processor will boast improved image processing performance, which means that the S9 and S9 + phones will be able to take pictures much faster, and it may also be possible to shoot slow-motion video clips at 480 frames per second. The Snapdragon 845 will also improve the quality of HDR photos, allowing the S9 phone to compete with Google phone Pixel 2.
Fast charging of the phone will also be available thanks to the Snapdragon 845 processor, and thanks to it, the phone will also have an improved biometric security and a powerful internet network at high speeds.
Samsung S9 stereo and headphone jack
Despite all the rumors that Samsung is going to remove the headphone jack in the S9 and S9 + phones, more recent information says that the headphone jack is likely to remain in place. And that's just great news, even though wireless headphones comfortable.Company Samsung already Demonstrated that the S8's IP68 water resistance works well with the 3.5mm headphone jack, with no need to change anything like it did with iPhone phones 8, iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X, which don't have a headphone jack.
Another change we welcome is the presence of stereo speakers in the S9 and S9 + phones made by AKG. Samsung has long overtaken developers like HTC in terms of sound, so it'll be interesting to hear what they came up with this time around.
Battery performance Samsung S9
The batteries in the new S9 and S9 + phones will be the same as those of their predecessors, but the battery will last much longer. This will happen because Qualcomm promises that the chip in the Snapdragon 845 processor will be 30% more energy efficient than the previous one. Additionally, the 845 processor has 4 A55 cores, which will be used during normal phone booting.Bixby software in Samsung S9
We can say that the company Bixby, which helped develop the S8 phone, did not make a worldwide sensation. On the contrary, many users Samsung devices asked to move the Bixby button to a different location on the device. And it looks like Samsung will have to think hard about what to do with the Bixby software in the new S9 phones to make things go well.Ice Universe is rumored to have new Galaxy AI UX software in the new phones, which will have more AI and machine learning elements. It is also safe to say that Samsung will implement some elements of Bixby in its other devices in order to make a single system for all of its devices. The company spoke about this at the CES 2018 conference.
conclusions
At first glance, new Galaxy phones The S9 and S9 + are virtually indistinguishable from their predecessors, the S8 and S8 +. But Samsung doesn't have to change anything radically. More powerful camera, smart software, fast processor, long battery life and stereo audio will help Samsung remain the best-known and best-selling Android smartphone developer. And yet, all this will help compete with the developer of the iPhone X for the title " best phone in the world".Another flagship of the South Korean manufacturer, traditionally competing with iPhone ruler, will be presented on February 25th. According to preliminary information, the design of the Galaxy S9 will not change too much compared to its predecessor, the iris scanner will be improved, and the body of the smartphone will receive a water-repellent coating. Substantial improvements to the camera and the transfer of the fingerprint sensor are expected. The price of the S9 will remain the same at $ 725.
V synopsis collect the most important information about Galaxy S9 including key features, release date, design changes and other details about the Samsung flagship. The review is based on unofficial information, so the actual functions of the smartphone may differ.
release date
The premiere of the flagship smartphone will take place on February 25, this is the official date, since Samsung has already sent out invitations to the event with a significant nine. Galaxy presentation The S9 will take place in Barcelona, Spain. Last year's S8 was announced later in March after Mobile World Congress.
Checkout pre order on a brand new smartphone will be available from March 1 to receive it among the first.
The S9 will be available from mid-March both on the shelves of retail stores and on orders from online retailers.
The date of the premiere of the smartphone, February 25, has been officially confirmed, while the dates of pre-order and start of sales may still change.
Galaxy S9 price
Almost certainly Samsung will not change the price of the flagship, according to at least, downward. At the start of sales, the Galaxy S8 could be purchased for $ 725. It is not worth counting on its decrease with a new iteration, but a slight increase may occur.
Russian Galaxy price S8 in March last year amounted to 55,000 rubles, and its "bigger brother" Plus version- 60,000 rubles. It will be possible to buy the Galaxy S9 in our country for the same price, probably with a slight upward change.
The flagship of 2017 went on sale on April 28, so the appearance flagship model 2018 should be expected in about a month after the official announcement, i.e. in the second half of March.
Galaxy S9 preliminary specifications
Overview technical features and functions are based on unofficial information, however, historically verified sources almost always paint a reliable picture of the characteristics of the new flagship.
Screen
The Galaxy S9 will receive a 5.8-inch QHD screen. The aspect ratio will be kept at 18.5: 9, just like the S8. Samsung Matrix will continue to use Super AMOLED. The manufacturer is not going to abandon the branded curved screen entering the side faces of the smartphone.
The Galaxy S9's fingerprint scanner may be located right below the screen, however this is inaccurate.
The screen can receive a practical water-repellent coating, patented by Samsung back in 2016. A nice feature that makes using the phone convenient when it rains.
Design
Samsung engineers seem to have managed to further increase the screen real estate in relation to the total front bezel, which is confirmed by photographs from a trusted source, namely Evan Blass. The screen footprint will increase from 84% in the Galaxy S8 to 90% in the S9, and its height will decrease slightly.
The Galaxy S9, judging by the numerous photos of the smartphone, will receive a main camera with a single lens, while the S9 Plus version will have a dual camera.
The flagship of the South Korean manufacturer will retain the traditional 3.5mm headphone jack in the 2018 iteration, while the iPhone has already abandoned this "throwback".
The Galaxy S9's case can be made from state-of-the-art "Metal 12" material. The corresponding trade mark recently patented by Samsung. The material is lighter and stronger than its predecessor.
Rudiments modular design in the form of magnets under back cover smartphone will be easy to attach to the flagship various accessories, such as external batteries, lenses, etc. A bold guess, especially given a single source. The likelihood of modularity Galaxy design S9 low.
A new beautiful color can be added to the palette - magenta. It is known for sure that the S9 Plus will receive a "coral blue" design option. The "little brother" will be available in the same color.
Camera
In the flagship of 2018, Samsung has obviously decided to focus on the camera (look at the invitation), and this will not be done by simply increasing the number of megapixels on the matrix or dual system cameras.
From the Galaxy S9, you should expect a variable aperture lens (!) And super slow motion video shooting. The "nail" of the camera can be HDR mode for video, a first for a smartphone.
In the invitation to the presentation Samsung flagship emphasizes the outstanding capabilities of the camera with the slogan “The Camera. Reimagined ".
Galaxy S9 camera could get 12MP camera with Dual technology Pixel, optical stabilization shooting and the ability to change the aperture in the range of f / 1.5-2.4. The smartphone can be switched to the first value for shooting in low light conditions (or artistic blurring of the background), and the aperture closed to f / 2.4 will increase the depth of field of the imaged area.
Information about the capabilities of the camera became known thanks to a snapshot of a supposedly box from a smartphone, which indicates "super-speed work", an 8 megapixel camera for selfies, and support for shooting video in super slow motion.
The possibility of super slow motion shooting in the Galaxy S9 is indirectly confirmed by reports that the manufacturer has been working on a smartphone camera capable of shooting video at up to 1000 frames per second, which significantly exceeds the characteristics of any smartphone on the market.
Using the Snapdragon 845 chip, Samsung's 2018 flagship smartphone can learn to shoot HDR video, which modern smartphones do not know how, and also record videos in 4K UHD format at up to 60 frames per second. FullHD recording will be possible at up to 480 frames per second.
In front camera there may also appear a certain "three-dimensional sensor", the purpose of which the sources have not yet named. Probably, it comes about a face recognition system for unlocking the phone, as in the iPhone X from Samsung's main competitor. Confirmation possible appearance S9's face recognition was derived from the Note 8's Oreo code.
The Galaxy S9 will almost certainly not get a dual camera, which will hallmark his older brother, plus models.
Battery: 3000mAh
Despite the persistent rumors about the giant battery capacity in the 2018 flagship, they did not materialize. According to recent leaks, the Galaxy S9 will have a 3,000mAh battery, just like the S8. However, the smartphone will almost certainly be able to run on this battery longer due to the increased energy efficiency of the processor and other components.
Operating system and specifications: Exynos 9810, 4 GB RAM, Oreo
The Snapdragon 845 will probably become the "heart" of the Galaxy S9, but not for Russia. Russian consumers will get a version based on the proprietary Exynos 9810.
The Snapdragon 845 has four cores clocked at 2.8 GHz and four more at 1.8 GHz. According to the tests, "fast" kernels outperform their predecessor by 30%. Also more powerful in system-on-a-chip became and graphics accelerator... The 845 can record 4K Ultra HD video at up to 60 fps.
The Exynos 9810 boasts an LTE modem capable of overclocking mobile internet up to 1.2 Gbps. An HD movie can be downloaded literally in a matter of seconds. Of course, if the S9 works in the appropriate mobile network with support for ultra-fast data transfer technology.
The amount of RAM in the Galaxy S9 is relatively modest - 4 GB is sufficient, although many Asian brands have switched their flagships to 6 GB of RAM quite a long time ago.
The amount of built-in memory is 64 or 128 GB.
The operating system is obvious - Android Oreo with a shell and a set of proprietary applications from Samsung.
Other features of the Galaxy S9
The flagship will receive an improved iris scanner, the resolution of which will be raised from 2 to 3 megapixels. This will not only speed up the technology compared to the S8, but also allow the wearer's eye to be recognized behind glasses or in low light conditions.
V smartphone Samsung can combine iris recognition with face recognition for a more complex and clear operation of the entire user identification system as a whole. In a recent patent, it is precisely such a scheme that a camera for scanning the iris also serves for face recognition.
The Galaxy S9 variant could get a dual SIM slot.
There are less than two weeks left until February 25, so we will soon find out exactly how much it will cost and what improvements the Galaxy S9 will offer to consumers.
Not so long ago, the eighth generation flagship appeared on store shelves, but now the Internet is replete with rumors about the Samsung Galaxy S9, according to some information, the novelty is at the production stage.
We've put together an overview of rumors and news that you didn't know about until now. You will find information below, along with everything we know about the elder Samsung models Galaxy S9 Plus.
We've also put together a list of suggestions that we hope Samsung will include in its next smartphone, because the S8 isn't exactly perfect.
In addition to the unemployed screen and dual camera, the Samsung Galaxy S9 will receive full support virtual reality devices.
The gadget will be equipped with 8 GB of RAM and up to 64 GB internal memory with microSD support, the most advanced Exynos 9 processor and advanced operating Android system version 8.0
LTE modem for Exynos 9 - speed 2 Gbps.
In July 2017, Samsung announced developed LTE modems for the next generation of its mobile processors Exynos, which support six operator aggregations or 6CA.
While Samsung's current Exynos 9 Series (8895) modem supports 5CA and turned the S8 into the first mobile phone with gigabit speed, Samsung will add more bandwidth to the S9 to generate 2Gbps gain.
A hypothetically updated modem will allow the new smartphone to download an entire HD movie within 10 seconds. In addition, buffering during video calls and live broadcasts is hypothetically eliminated.
Ready for 5G networks
Other benefits of the new modem include more stable data transfer, 4X4 Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output, and the ability to aggregate licensed and unlicensed network spectrum from network carriers.
This feature will not only adapt the new product ready for 5G networks, but will also make the Galaxy S9, the most fast smartphones on the market.
Ports and connections
Samsung introduced USB-C rather than Micro-USB for the Galaxy S8, and the company did not follow Apple's lead, leaving the 3.5mm headphone jack relying on wireless or USB-C audio.
There is a danger that this time the new product will lose this connector, although nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
Price and release date in Russia
Official information on the date of receipt in Galaxy sale S9 is not yet available, but starting from Samsung presentations in the past, we can say with confidence that the announcement of the next smartphone will take place in March-April 2018.
We don't know anything yet about when the Samsung Galaxy S9 will be announced, so we just need to get away from what Samsung has done in the past.
There is speculation that the company announces new model already in February 2018, at international exhibition Mobile World Congress 2018.
As for the price of the Samsung Galaxy S9, the model will undoubtedly cost a lot, but not much more than its predecessor, as the younger S8 model started from $ 720, the Plus version from $ 920, which in Russia is 43,000 rubles and 55,000 rubles, respectively.
Samsung Galaxy S9: what we want to see
Samsung has had to increase the price of the Galaxy S8, making it one of the most expensive flagship phones on the market.
If you buy it as part of a two-year contract in South Korea, it's not that expensive, but many would like Samsung to lower the price of the next-generation phone, if at all possible.
Display
Little is known about the Samsung Galaxy S9 at this time, but some sources claim the company has already begun work on its next flagship phone.
Samsung has been working on bezel-less displays for the Galaxy S9 since late March 2017, which is about 6 months earlier than usual. Presumably the South Koreans are developing two 6.2-inch panels for the Plus version, and 5.8 for the younger model.
Rumors that the company was planning to release a smartphone with a foldable display were several years ago, however Executive Director Samsung has told media that the company has no plans to launch a fully foldable phone until 2019, but plans may change in the coming months.
To build the first phone with a truly foldable display and sell it in 2018 is a major incentive for a South Korean company and could change the way we use smartphones forever.
Galaxy S9 with 4-inch display
It is believed that Samsung also intends to release a third version of the Galaxy S9 with a 4-inch diagonal, borrowing this idea from Apple with their successful iPhone SE.
Fingerprint sensor under the screen
It's clear that Samsung wanted to move the fingerprint sensor under the screen for the Galaxy S8, but didn't have enough time to get the module to work properly.
Instead, Samsung has included a touch-sensitive home button under the display, which is helpful, but we'd like to see the company go all the way to include an under-screen fingerprint sensor in the Galaxy S9.
Dual lens camera
Given that the camera enhancements on the Galaxy S8 seem pretty limited, it would be great if Samsung pushed the camera technology in the phone to install a dual-lens module on the Galaxy S9.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 will go on sale in April 2017 and is still a very good smartphone (if not the best one on the market!). All indications are that the "ninth" in the Galaxy family will appear faster than expected. What's new in Samsung's next flagship? Galaxy S9 Fast-Track Release First Announced By Industry android blog Headlines, which announced that the premiere of the nine will take place at the end of January 2018, and it will hit stores in mid-February. An anonymous source for the authors also reports that production of the successor to the Galaxy S8 began before the iPhone launch on September 12th. The Samsung Galaxy S9 will be the first smartphone to feature direct-from-screen fingerprint scanning technology. The Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9 + are reportedly being held internally under the codenames "Star" and "Star 2". As with the previous version, we expect two versions of the S9 to be available: the standard 5.8-inch model and Plus models with a slightly larger 6.2-inch screen. Both models will have curved edges and an Infinity display, but the novelty will have in-screen fingerprint scanning technology.
Samsung Galaxy S9 release date?
Expected Release Date: February / March 2018 - Announced, April 2018 Release Date Samsung's new product ordering process has gotten a bit tricky over the past few years, announcing the Galaxy Note 5 in August 2015 and the Note 7 in August 2016, both far from IFA. Then in March 2017, the Galaxy S8 and S8 + were announced - some time after the February MWC. Smartphones finally hit the market at the end of April. Early announcement smartphones Note allowed Samsung to be slightly ahead of its key Apple competitor with its September conference, where the iPhone is usually presented. While Samsung has not officially confirmed this, we believe that the next launch of the S series this year was due to a battery explosion at Note devices and strategic planning - solely based on the Snapdragon 835 chip. Since Samsung helped Qualcomm develop the Snapdragon 835, it was agreed that no other smartphone with this processor would be announced and go on sale until the Galaxy S8. As a result, the main rival - LG - was forced to use the Snapdragon 821 in its G6, while HTC and Sony have postponed their U11 and Xperia XZ Premium releases to a later date. This strategy created additional buzz around the S8 and receiving Samsung good results on sales in 2017. We believe that in 2018 we will see similar actions, that is, the announcement of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 + in March, and shipments to stores in April. The cherry on top of these speculations is that Qualcomm has already agreed with Samsung to jointly develop the Snapdragon 845. So it could be that 2018 Samsung will once again have an exclusive processor for its newest flagship. Since the MWC will run from February 26, 2018 to March 1, 2018, The Samsung Galaxy S9 will be officially announced on Sunday, February 25, 2018.Samsung Galaxy S9 - what will be the screen?
We'll probably have to deal with the evolution of the displays we've met this year. The information available on the Internet resembles new technology- This will AMOLED screen Sunflower. What will be his innovations? Hopefully at least Samsung fixes the screen redness problem that has been on smartphones this year. On this moment there is no more information on this matter. The screen on the Galaxy S9 will be expected to have thin bezels, perhaps even thinner than the current flagship. The aspect ratio should not change and will remain at 18: 9 (actually 18.5: 9). The Galaxy Note 8 has more than 84% screen real estate, so the Galaxy S9 certainly won't get any worse. The Samsung Galaxy S9 is expected to have a 2960x1440 panel, 570ppi, Super AMOLED "Infinity" panel, while the Galaxy S9 + will have a 529ppi panel. Given that Samsung limits the screen resolution to Full-HD + (2220x1080) in the Galaxy S8 by default, I don't think it will bump the resolution up to 4K. In 2016, Samsung patented a glass coating technology that bounces water off the screen, making it much easier to use smartphones in the rain. It can be used in the Galaxy S9, which is likely to remain waterproof (the Galaxy S8 is IP68 certified, meaning it can be submerged up to 1.5m and kept there for 30 minutes).
Samsung Galaxy S9: price
Galaxy S8 and S8 + are the most expensive phones in the S-series Samsung, the minimum official cost of which today is 49,990 rubles and 54,990 rubles, respectively. But in our opinion, the price additionally included coverage of the costs of the disaster related to the Note 7's batteries and less favorable economic and political events in the world. Until this year, Samsung has always kept the price of the S line on par with other rival flagships. And we would be very surprised if the price of the Samsung S9 were much higher or lower than the current ones.What will be the processor in the new S9?
According to Aju Business Daily, Samsung has agreed with Qualcomm to develop the Snapdragon 845, which could be the main chip for the Galaxy S9 in 2018. Aju Business Daily also talks about negotiations with TSMC in Taiwan, which is in charge of Apple A11, another chip made with 10nm technology. The Snapdragon 835 10nm technology has helped Qualcomm improve performance by 27% and reduce power consumption by 40% over its predecessor 14nm chips. The upcoming Snapdragon 845 will presumably be powered by 7nm technology, so it will be faster and more efficient than ever. It is worth noting that the Snapdragon 845 has not yet been officially announced, although there is evidence that Qualcomm is actively working on it and there are even working copies. As with the Samsung Glaxy S8 and S8 +, the Koreans are likely to pick up most of the first batch of Snapdragon 845, which is expected to be officially announced by the end of 2017. I wonder if this will affect the launch date of LG, Sony or Huawei flagships? Despite the ability to use the Galaxy S8 and S8 + Snapdragon 835, they are sold in Russia with Samsung's proprietary Exynos 8895. Perhaps, Galaxy versions The S9 and S9 + for Russia will ship with an 8nm Exynos processor, probably a 9810.What camera will the Galaxy S9 have?
It is clear that Samsung is going to develop. The Galaxy S8 has an excellent sensor, one of the best on the market. It is logical to assume that since new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is available dual camera then you should expect the same in the S9. Currently, we do not yet know what exactly the functions of the second camera will be, but there are three options here. It will be a telephoto camera, monochrome matrix or wide-angle camera like the LG G6. Most likely, I think it will be the first option, because the largest competitor, the company from Cupertino, offered the zoom function back in last year's iPhone 7 Plus. also in recent times there were rumors that the second camera was designed to record slow-mo video in Full resolution HD at up to 1000 frames per second.Samsung Galaxy S9: new features and characteristics
Samsung began work on the Galaxy S9 at the end of March 2017, which is six months ahead of schedule compared to the Galaxy S8 and S8 + last year. This means more time for quality control, more time for new features, and hopefully more satisfied customers. Interestingly, in July 2017, Geekbench saw an early version of the alleged Galaxy S9. The SM-G9650 has been described as a smartphone powered by a Snapdragon 845 quad-core processor with clock frequency 1.78 GHz and only 4 GB of RAM. In the RenderScript test, the smartphone scored 7371 points, which is lower than the Galaxy S8. Most likely this does not correspond to reality.Real characteristics
