Samsung Galaxy S9 price specs features availability

Samsung finally revealed its latest flagship smartphones — the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus.

Not a lot has changed on the outside, but the successor of the S-series has a lot of improvements on the hardware side. For one, it now features a faster chipset with the new Exynos 9810 and more spacious 6GB of RAM.

Both handsets retain the IP68 rating, which means that they can be submerged in water 1.5 meters deep for up to 30 minutes. While it may seem like the cameras are exactly the same as last year’s, Samsung actually upgraded its shooters in different ways aside from the pixel count. There’s also the new stereo speakers in partnership with AKG.
