Welcome back everyone - as we move through 2018, there are lots of new things coming
out.
Well that happens every year but this year marks the release of the Samsung Galaxy S9
Phone - some experts are calling it the greatest Samsung phone ever - could it lead them to
overtake Apple?
My name is Danny Burke and lets see if youll be buying the Top 10 Samsung S9 Facts You
Need To Know … At number 10 now we have The Battery.
Phone users have seen big improvements in phone technology but a drop in how much battery
power there is.
The S9 seems to last a bit longer than the S8 from what we can see.
Its powered by a 3,000 milliam per hour battery cell and just like the S8 - the S9 will feature
wireless charging technology.
Next up at number 9 we have The Camera.
Samsung pride themself on having the best phone camera in the business and the S9 is
now different.
They say the phone will help reimagine the camera.
It will feature a single lens with variable aperture and a 12 mega pixel rear sensor with
image stabilization but most importantly.
Before we go any further - at number 8 lets give you guys the Release Date.
The phones launch was announced by Samsung on February 25th 2018 - preorders for Europe
became available straight away and on March 1st in the US.
The phone will be available everywhere, all over the world in stores on March 16th.
Although if youre watching after this date, its already out.
At number 7 now we have The Price.
First, lets take a look at last years Samsung S8 - that first launched with a $720 price
tag - the plus model came in at $840.
Thats still a few hundred dollars cheaper than the iPhone 10 and iPhone X but for the
Samsung S9 - prices have stayed the same!
Much to the delight of fans - the new S9s will have the same price tag that the S8s
did on release - 720 dollars for the normal model and 840 for the plus.
Coming in at number 6 we have the Design.
The design is fairly similar to the S8 - two major talking points are the fingerprint scanner
and the headphone jack.
The fingerprint scanner on the S8 was next to the rear camera - some people complained
that this left their finger always covering the camera.
With the S9 - the scanner has been moved to the below the camera to solve this problem.
To the delight of many fans - the 3.5mm headphone jack will remain in the S9. Apple famously
stopped using that in 2016 and Sony recently announced theyd ditch it in their future phones.
Perhaps Samsung will follow suit in the future, but not with the S9!
At number 5 now we have Animated Emojis.
New software on the S9 will store tenth of a second images you take with the phone which
can be automatically turned into gifs to use in social media and messaging.
Users can also create 3D emojis of themself - just take a picture of your face and then
strike real life poses to make custom emojis using augmented-reality software.
Thats right - this is the future.
At number 4 now we have The Storage.
Storage is a very important thing for a lot of phone users these days - nobody expects
that they have to delete their pictures, videos or apps just to make room.
Both models of the S9 will come with 64 GB of space - thats a lot less than the iPhone
10 which boasts a maximum storage of 256GB - 4 times as much.
A lot of people thing 64GB is more than enough though - what do you guys think!
Moving on to number 3 we have The Screen.
Its one of the most important parts of any phone.
Its not that much of an improvement over the S8 but that still means its very good.
The specs include a 5.8 inch QHD+ Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1440 by 2960
pixels.
That works out to an impressive 567 pixels per inch.
The screen ratio remains at 18.5 to 9 although the bezels at the top and bottom have been
cut down to give the same screen on a smaller body.
At number 2 now we have Colours.
The phone will come in a choice of 3 colours - Midnight Black, Orchid Gray and Arctic Silver
- not really much more to say about that one - those are the colours on offer!
Which would would you guys like?
I think id prefer the sleek midnight black model.
Silver looks kinda nice too … And finally at number 1 we have Bixby.
Samsung users will already be familiar with the Bixby assistant but the S9 is said to
bring huge improvements to the old version.
Bixby vision will allows the user to wave their camera infront of real world objects
to learn more about them.
For example, it can translate languages in real time on the screen - kind of like Google
translate.
Point the camera at a building to be given your exact location and address instantly
or even point it at your food to get an estimate of how many calories are in that meal.
It even lets you apply virtual makeup to a selfie using the front facing camera to try
before you by.
Its all getting very clever - this whole phone stuff.

Are you an Apple fan who has been tempted over by the new features and the lower price
tag than the iPhone?
