Nothing

When Samsung unveiled its Samsung's Galaxy S9 and S9+ less than a month ago, there was a palpable air of disappointment. While it offers one or two new or improved features, on paper, it appears to be very similar to the Galaxy S8 and S8+ of last year.

Brilliant display; Good primary Dual Aperture and secondary Telephoto cameras; Good performance

Same old front camera; Bixby still needs improvement
