Samsung Galaxy S9 + Reviews

Advantages: 1. Screen. It is obvious. Big, beautiful, normally conveys colors;
2. The shell. Samsung stuffed everything that can come up in terms of settings and customization. Plus, it works quickly (at least for now);
3. Cameras. Everything is clear, except for the minor bug - a lively focus (such as a portrait) sometimes does not smear what it should smear as a background, but is not critical at all;
4. Sound Not a music lover, but frank game from a more or less normal sound can be distinguished. With complete headphones, that the speakers sound good;
5. Materials. Glass is also glass in Africa. Yes, slippery, but beautiful)) 0;
6. No one unnecessary, but unusual chips. After the purchase I began to have a healthy life-style, I measure the pulse and the level of stress to the whole entrance - the headstocks on the shops are delighted;
7. Either I stumbled, or the scratch on the screen itself dragged on. In any case, when I first saw it, my heart sank, but now it is either used, or it has become less. Let it be a plus - unusually.

Comment: It is foolish to attribute the size to slippery, slippery glass (did you see anything slippery somewhere? Except for rough / matte surfaces), body marquee and so on - put the device behind the window and admire it as a museum exhibit.

Yes, there is something to do to hesitate - then the backlash button, then the owner has become impudent at the end, but the fact that there is everything in this device that the sick head wishes in 2018 covers small shoals.

With this device you become the first guy in the area, but absolutely not interesting for the local gopota - and it looks like an old S8, and not even an iPhone. In general, continuous goodness - I write messages with one hand, with the other I wipe the tears of happiness.

That is the complement of flaws.
It turned out that a direct beam of light fired brazenly and unceremoniously at the apparatus screen for several minutes. In general, I was saddened by the imprinted date on the screen for a week, I even managed to get used to it, but it disappeared with time. I began to notice that under high loads (such as a screen for the whole coil, etc.), static objects (maps in games, large text, etc.) leave traces for a couple of hours.

In general, I’m not a very impressionable person (you can’t swear here), I don’t care much (there should be a mat here), but when you have a 60 kilo-toy for a toy, you think it’s willy-nilly that children’s phones are 5 years old already behind, Annette)) 0 For those who get opened because of every scratch or flaw - you should think about whether you are ready for the phone to check your memory in your spare time, throwing fingerprints from applications that you closed for a couple of hours back)) 0) And I still keep waiting for the imprint to appear Yemen will not disappear. I'll keep you informed.

Advantages: Great screen. The camera, especially zoom, shooting in the evening and stabilization when shooting from the hand on the go. Fast processor. In the set immediately good headphones and fast charging. As well as the most convenient case. This was a surprise purchase. The phone is not for the CIS market. Therefore, for 44300 (July 20) and with a case in the box.
I bought a holder on the windshield with charging and just a buzz. The phone is simple enough to insert and it immediately starts charging. No wiring for you with connectors and attempts to connect it to the phone on the go.
The sound is just as good. In the car, I did not have time to connect the phone to Bluetooth, but I talked perfectly on the phone while driving. And I hear well and me. And voice control never got lost.
The special shine is the VoLTE feature. It was before, but if the old LTE phone had one stick, then it’s almost full scale.
Finally, VoWi-Fi worked fine. Now you can not even notice that with the phone went to the basement, because If there is Wi-Fi, then the connection goes through it, and not through the base station. And now abroad, any Wi-Fi is a free MTS base station.
The transfer from the old phone to the new one took an hour, through WI-fi and the application from Market transferred everything from the old phone, it is indicated on the first page in the quick instructions.
Disadvantages: All the same, too big! And heavy! Not quite frameless. Rounded edges have an edge, and do not smoothly flow into the body. With a high weight, dropping it is extremely dangerous.
In the car holder is quite strong glare.
But because of the camera have to suffer. There is no alternative to such a camera and such a phone.
Batteries hardly last a day if the phone is actively used. Those. in a year and a day it will not be enough due to the aging of the battery and it will be necessary to switch to energy-saving modes.
But today, everything is at its maximum, and about 80% goes to the evening.
Comment: Yes, this is the flagship for today.With all the disadvantages and the availability of money, you need to buy exactly that. I really want everything the same, but in a lighter case and with a longer-lived battery.

Advantages: -The camera is excellent, capable of replacing an amateur digital camera.
- Moisture - and dust protection IP-68. I think this is a very important feature.
-Screen SUPER-AMOLED speaks for itself, the image quality is excellent.
-The presence of a 3.5 mm "jack" (using headphones Hi-Fi).
-Design. Not too rounded and not too angular, for me I fell into the “very bullseye”.
I have the device "Black Diamond". Of course, it looks solid and rich, like a brand new Mercedes.
-Stereo speakers. Give out a great, surround, clear and quite loud sound.
-Slot for 2 SIM cards.
-Equipment. The manufacturer took everything into account and put the phone with everything you need, headphones, adapters: micro USB-Type C, Type C - Usb, allowing you to watch movies and listen to music from a USB flash drive.
-The ability to increase internal memory, additional installation of a memory card.
- The battery suits me perfectly, lasts a day, or even two, depending on the intensity. I certainly do not belong to people who do not let the smartphone out of their hands. But no doubt, the less battery dependent you are, the better.
-The speed of work, lags and brakes are not revealed. For the month of use there was not a single glitch.
Disadvantages: -Is that the absence of Ik-Port. It is impossible to use the function of the virtual remote control, before it was Honor-8, coped well with this function.
- The device is fragile. But this is not a disadvantage, it is such a feature of the model, except the frame is made of glass. Yes, I watched crash tests, the stated safety margin of "Gorilla Glass" justified itself. The device, of course, kept the usual falls, and on the concrete floor, but if you paid such a lot (according to my criteria) money with this smartphone, then it is still better to get an original, beautiful case. Personally, I use a flip book and everyone is happy.
Comment: Before that I dreamed of Nout-8. But having weighed enough all the functions, comparing the autonomy of work and dynamics (for me it is very important), the choice fell on C9 +. I read reviews about problems with the touchscreen and came across problematic places in some parts of the screen (I used protective glass). But it turned out to be no disadvantage at all, the phone has an option for increasing the sensitivity of the sensor for those who use films and protective glasses. Turned on her and everything began to work, as expected. Anyone who has this problem was observed - I strongly recommend that you enable this option. I heard that the phone heats up when charging - I will honestly say it again, I use it insufficiently - that's why I didn’t notice much heat. I don’t play games on my phone, so I’ll skip this topic. I noticed that fingerprint recognition does not work well. But rather, I'll take it to my disadvantage than to the minus of the smartphone, my hands often sweat, perhaps because of this, inaccuracies appear.
I recommend this product, take it boldly - you will not regret it.
Below is an example of a photo from the camera of a smartphone without any additional settings.

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Camera
Stereo speakers
Screen
Design
The presence of 3.5 mm jack (I do not know how anyone, but for me it is important)
Moisture protection
Work speed
Case dimensions with such (6.2) screen diagonal
Package (as compared with the latest iphone is a very rich set)
Disadvantages: Not the most outstanding work time
Inability to disable bixby without additional programs (as far as I know)
Comment: I bought the device in trade-in instead of galaxy s7. It turned out 48,000 rubles - I consider the justified price for such a device justified. And compared to s7, this is a different level.
The screen is even more contrast, the sound just does not go to any comparison. From the point of view of multimedia capabilities, this device has no equal! Watching movies and videos is a pleasure! The camera shoots cool in the dark, in the afternoon, of course, shoots perfectly, but the camera application interface itself was better on the same galaxy s7.
The design is very cool glass, the metal creates the look of a very, very premium machine. The quality of the assembly is top notch.
Now about the authentication methods. The fingerprint scanner is conveniently located, smart scanning is convenient enough, but you have to keep the phone there in a certain way. I use mainly the face recognition system - it works quickly, with good lighting.
The device works smoothly quickly and without lags. Edge panel brought to perfection, it is convenient to use, there are no false clicks. Due to the curved screen, a sense of framelessness is created - it looks cool!
The only thing that was not very pleased was the battery life. With my not very active rhythm (an hour and a half of music in the background, watching a video for half an hour a day, surfing the Internet, using aod), it’s a day and a half, which is not enough.
With bixby, the problem disappeared - the key was disabled using the quickshortcutmaker program.
In general, the most uncompromising flagship on the market with huge opportunities. So if you are thinking about purchasing this unit - take it, you will not regret it!

Advantages: 1. Simultaneous support of 2 accounts for FB / TLGRM / WUPP
2. Screen - juice! No comments.
3. Dynamic and really loud and sound quality.
4. The presence of a mini-jack and, in fact, AKG headphones included. The sound is decent, they sit comfortably in the ear.
Disadvantages: Not very confidently recognizes the face, but this, apparently, because I'm wearing glasses.
But this is not critical, because yuzayu imprint.
Comment: For completeness of understanding of the review I will immediately inform you about the devices that I owned in the sequence: Note2 / SGS4 / LG G2 / G3 / G5 / G6.
I'll start with the most important thing for many (for me, for sure): S9 + allows you to record phone calls !!! But here is an important point: when I entered under my account and started uploading all the programs from the Play Market to the program that was installed on the G6, he immediately cursed and simply did not let it be installed. "Stosh ..." I thought, and almost resigned. But today, having come up with a VPN from Finland (I don’t know how important it is, but I’ll write how it was), I just stupidly downloaded the first rated prog in the market called Call Recorder, I immediately bought the PRO version (although, as it seems to me, this is not necessary, but 189 rubles is not a pity) and everything works, Carl! I think this message will be extremely useful for those who are still "breaking apart the agony of choice" as to what to buy: P20 Pro or SGS9 +.
Everyone’s personal business, of course, but I’m not ready to take the fee for 55,000.

In general, the device is quite nimble in speed. Compared to the G6, it is felt.
Speedtest issued 257Mbps on an iota, - more than at home))
The battery lasts longer, there are optimization modes.
Well, the most important point is the camera !!! In fact, because of her, I decided to buy it.
I hope the review will be useful.

Advantages: 1. Compactness at the size of the diagonal, the quality of the display and the matrix, in other matters, I did not find any differences in the first hours of use from the previous generation, and it is unlikely that I would find
2. In comparison with the previous model, an increase in the volume and sound quality of the speakers is just a fire. Stereo sound - twisted classic, ambient, guitar zapily- pleasant ear audibility. In my opinion, the increase in volume and clarity in comparison with S8plus percent 10-15%.
3. Signal reception is good. During the day I rode the subway, visited the room with shielding, rode around the city, everywhere the reception was confident.
4. The camera is really cool. Liked the opportunity to manually change the apertures. During the day I did a bunch of frames in food mode, pro, auto, portrait.
In the dark, the details have become less blurred. In comparison with the iPhone X comrade there is a difference. During the day, you can also shoot without HDR — yet with it, the naturalness of some shades decreases, they become more aggressive (green and blue). Portraits are beautiful - the blur area is chosen successfully.
About the video: 960 FPS impressed. The camera application itself has become more convenient and more interesting.
5. Split screen-gone. You look YouTube and at the same time answer in the messenger, telling about the awesomeness of your phone. A useful thing.
Disadvantages: 1. AR Emoji: to be honest, they look somehow poorly.At least the ones that type like are your copy. Animated in the form of some kind of robot, animals are slightly better. It may be finished, although there is no benefit from this function.
2. To be honest, the smart hybrid unlock function works strangely: if you leave the unlock only on the face and fingerprint, it makes it a moment; if you add the iris to them, it starts to think. I do not know what is connected. Rather, again with the stability of the software-correct.
Comment: The device is in the color of a black diamond, a friend took graphite. I can say that both options look extremely decent.
I think that if you use the 6th and 7th generations, then it is worth going over. C 8ki probably would not.
For the purchase I will definitely recommend.
P.S. Two days have passed. On the battery holds the same as 8+.
The edges of the phone are some sharp, with a grip without a case, it is not very convenient, the palms are not very pleasant (as for me).
Oleofobka does its job - the phone does not collect prints. This is a plus.

Advantages: Appearance (I have a lilac), chose a pre-order from the pictures on the pictures (got March 9). Camera!!! The size, in contrast to the huge square i8plus, is completely optic and lies better in the hand.
Smart (while new)))
The type-c connector holds the cable more confidently, before that it often crashed (only 8ke in 10 months)
Disadvantages: I have not found it yet (I will add it later, if they will). What is not pleasant in samsung is the Cloud, the memory in the cloud is only 15GB available and it is not possible to expand it (for comparison, icloud advanced I still pay there for a lot of information and if I quickly restore the iPhone on occasion .. I've been waiting for 3 years!) )
Comment: I took S7 as a replacement, before it was S7edge, it always has iPhones (6,5s and so on) .. The 8th Samsung upset the battery and after checking it for moisture protection in the pool, began to blunt the charging connector and the light sensor. I decided to take with a large battery, well, and try the screen a little more, the memory consciously took 64GB tk enough. The camera is certainly gorgeous! The battery still holds well too, for a full day, quietly enough (WiFi, 4G +, VTSAP and photos, I do not play games), I copied applications from 8k, only 108 pieces, some constantly suck the battery, at 8k the charge of 30% was by 4 . After 8ki I thought to switch back to iPhone: 10k upset with dampness, and 8plus with squareness. Android is certainly an amateur, but I liked “freedom”: I wanted to download a song or a movie, etc., in terms of protection, I’m putting in charge a paid antivirus and antivirus! Would recommend .. but this is a choice of everyone, I personally liked it, someone does not .. Good luck in choosing YOUR device! (What could have helped)))
