The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is the bigger and better version of the Samsung Galaxy S9. Both of these phones come with Samsung’s infinity curved screen display. The S9+, however, just like all the other Samsung plus phones, comes with a bigger display.

A bigger display, at 6.2 inches, means you can appreciate this phone’s display even more. One downside people had to this though, is that it doesn’t look very different from the Samsung S8+. However, is that really a downside if the Samsung’s overall build quality was also excellent?

One major change they made to the build of the S9+, though, was placing the fingerprint sensor back where it was meant to be. The Samsun S8+ featured the fingerprint sensor in position that was not traditional. So, putting it back in its rightful place, at the center, is something that we really like.

The biggest innovation with this phone lies in its camera. The Samsung S9+ comes with two 12-megapixel camera lenses (one is a telephoto lens) at the back. In fact, it was the first smartphone with a variable aperture camera.

The back camera automatically switches apertures in different lighting situations. This means that you get really great bright photos, even in low-light. If you’re looking for a Samsung device that sums up all Samsung is known to be good for, you’ve found the right one.
