The new Galaxy S9 has no significant difference from the S8 apart from its length and a slightly heavier weight. However, Samsung has added a new dual rear camera that is capable in taking slow motion works and a larger aperture to retain more light. It also comes with new stereo speakers tuned by AKG with its audio certified by Dolby Atmos.
The animoji AR brings our memory back to the iconic feature of iPhone X. You can now create and personalize your own stickers filled with your expression and sent it out through social IM and messaging app!
On the other hand, Samsung has made productivity even more easier with the new DeX that turns the smartphone in the workstation while the smartphone remains as a capacitive touchpad from a laptop.
