battery life; AR emoji needs improvements

I just switched from the 8+ to the 9+. And the only reason I switched was i was tired of the battery life on the 8. So after the 3rd day I noticed the battery life on the new phone is just like the one I exchanged. So disappointed on that.

Simply put, the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus is a bigger version of the Samsung Galaxy S9. (Check out our Samsung S9 review to find out more about the S9 Plus's smaller sibling.) And this comes without the S9 Plus being that much different to last year's Samsung Galaxy S8, either.

Standout dual-lens camera system; Luxe 6.2-inch Super AMOLED display; Better-placed fingerprint sensor

Similar to Galaxy S8 Plus; More expensive than S9

Samsung already had some of the best-looking, most desirable smartphones around, so the Galaxy S9+ didn't need to do much to continue the trend.The biggest improvements are the camera, the processing performance and some software refinements.

The best screen on a smartphone; Versatile dual-lens camera; Fantastic performance; Eye-catching design

Little has changed from last year

The Samsung Galaxy S9+ offers out-of-the-box functionality that exceeds most other devices. It's one of the leaders of a new generation of hardware, pushing quality design with one of the best displays around.

New speakers are amazing; Great camera performance in low light; Great design and display; Out-of-the-box functionality surpasses rivals; 3.5mm headphone socket

You might never find all the features; Display can crush shadows in movies; Camera could be better with HDR; Price

Last year's Galaxy S8+ was slightly held back by a few annoying niggles, such as the awkward fingerprint sensor placement, all of which have been rectified in the Galaxy S9+. Samsung could certainly be accused of simply recycling last year's design, but it was really great in 2017 and is just as...

128GB + microSD card slot; wireless charging; IP68; fantastic screen; excellent camera; iris scanner + face recognition combo; great fingerprint scanner; notification LED; headphone socket

battery life could be better; very similar to S8+ design; Bixby button can't be remapped

I got a bit more excited researching before buying than what i did when i had the physical phone. It's a good product but the advertising makes you think its going to be incredible. It's just a good phone.

Its a big upgrade over my S7 Edge, security settings, Iris Scanner, finger print scanner. I barely glance at my phone and its unlocked. The camera, is the best I've ever used, with super slow mo, professional settings so you can blur backgrounds.

I absolutely love this phone. I haven't had a new phone in ages, as my last was the Galaxy S4. The speakers are amazing and the colour is lush. I have a lot to learn, but this phone is making me very happy. A very expensive treat but a phone for live as I'm 49 lol.

Having had every galaxy S series phone since the S2, getting the S9+ was a no brainer for me. I have never had a problem with any Samsung phone I've owned and the ease of use of these phones just adds to the pleasure.
