I just got my new phone yesterday I upgraded from S7edge this S9+ is totally redesigned with so many exciting new features.

Loving this phone so far. Upgraded from the Galaxy S6 edge and I'm really enjoying the quality of the screen, camera, and overall layout of this phone. I love the side panel for frequently used apps instead of having them covering the home screen.

After the launch of Apple's 10 th anniversary iPhone X , all eyes were on Samsung to check whether the Korean smartphone giant could deliver a smartphone that could one-up Apple's new Face ID technology along with its edge-to-edge display, which also introduced the annoying notch.

Poor Battery Life

The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is undoubtedly a good phone, if not a very good phone. While not a revolutionary upgrade, Samsung focused on minor improvements and many of these have led to a better smartphone than the Galaxy S8+. However at the same time, several areas of the Exynos model are disappointing.

Attractive, improved design with lots of killer features; Display is still excellent, despite no major upgrades; Strong camera performance

Disappointing performance and battery life from the Exynos model; Glass construction remains fragile; Galaxy S8 owners have no reason to upgrade
