The Samsung Galaxy S9 is smaller than the Galaxy S9+, and that's a good thing. The single-camera setup at the rear keeps up on most counts with the dual-camera setup on the S9+. There's also less RAM on the Samsung Galaxy S9, but on the face of it that doesn't really matter.

The Samsung Galaxy S9 sits alongside the S9+ as the latest flagship smartphones from Samsung. Both phones are notable in that they are the first smartphones to offer cameras with a variable aperture lens, that is one that you can control yourself.

Dope phone yo.

So, my final words for the Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ would be that these are the best options for flagship devices in Nepal right now. Yes, the iPhone X is a direct competitor but is a little bit expensive, the Mate 10 Pro is has begun to lose its charm and the Huawei P20 Pro is yet launch here.

Top-quality display; Sleek Design; Minimalistic Bezels; Great Camera

Battery Life; Unfinished AR Emoji; Low-quality slow-motion video @960fps

But the battery life leaves much to be desired and there is a sense that the Galaxy S9 is overly familiar. Plus, you can get a phone that's better in almost every sense if you can stretch to the Galaxy S9 Plus.

+ Brilliant screen; + Very powerful; + Good camera

- Overly familiar; - Disappointing battery; - Expensive

Does this AR emoji look like me? Kinda I wasn't wearing a stitch of makeup when I took this photo Check out those curves The Galaxy S9's dimensions hits the sweet spot The Lilac purple color option really stands out The Samsung Galaxy S9 retails for $719.99 unlocked in the US.

Infinity Display The Samsung Galaxy S9 continues to have the same good looks as its predecessor. There is a Super AMOLED Infinity Display that is near bezel-less. The 5.8" Quad HD+ display has a resolution of 2960 x 1440 pixels.

Is the standard Galaxy S9 worth a look when the Plus does it so much better? Yes... But only in certain cases

Great design; Fantastic screen; Powerful internals

Lacks the second camera of the S9 Plus

Last year Samsung didn't unveil a Galaxy smartphone at MWC 17, instead focusing on its manufacturing standards and unveiling the Galaxy S8 a couple of months later. The move proved a smart one, with the Galaxy S8 taking top spot in our books as the best phone of the year.

Impressive design; Bright and crisp display; Great all round camera; High powered processor

Bixby still meh; Not a huge step up from S8

We prefer the Samsung Galaxy S9 over its larger sibling S9+. It is not as bulky and the dual-camera is not worth the additional price. The Korean manufacturer once again delivers a really great smartphone, but it is more of a facelift of last year's Galaxy S8 and there are still some bugs, and some...
