Eventually, Samsung will have to remove it, their phones are starting to get ludicrously tall to the point where their “normal sized” Galaxy phones are starting to look like Galaxy Notes from 2015.
Sid The Science Kid, the vertical direction is what I’m referring to. In the phone, the headphone jack piece is about as long as half an inch. I’m sure Samsung is eventually gonna take that 1/2 inch loss to prevent their S line from looking like the Note line.
Nope, BT is wack. Too unreliable. And why would you want another thing you just have to charge and has limited battery life? Not to mention that after about a year or two it doesn't hold a charge for very long if it charges at all. A headphone jack is still a viable alternative.
I love the headphones. You know how many times my wireless doesn't want to connect because the cellphone is connected also to other things?. Headphone jack is a must
it's called an 'embargo', it's basically the manufacturer saying you're not allowed to publicly say anything about the phone until a given date, given hour.
is this the first time ya'll are subscribed to tech channels? there's a thing called embargos or NDAs that apply to reviewers when new products are released.
As a S8 owner. This is underwhelming but then again that's how revolutionary and a game changer the S8 is. I wasn't expecting a BIG change. This did make me appreciate my S8 a little bit more though 😏.
still the 5.8 inch and 6.2 inch infinity display still ip68 certified still has wireless charging still has usb type-c still has the headphone jack Still puffing my leafs Still fuck with the beats still not loving police Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease Still got love for the streets reppin' 213 Still the beats bang still doing my thang ... still snoop dogg and D.R.E.
Believe it or not, some people respect the police who die to protect people (not all do but some), and some people really just dislike rap, just like there are people who don't like classical, or country, or pop. And guess what, Snoop turned to producing porn, so is devoid of respectability. Anyone who mentions him in some positive light is a moron. It would have -1 likes if I could manage it.
Well Yeah, when Sony did the 960fps slow-motion nobody cared, but now that samsung did it, it's just amazing... get your facts straight, all of you youtubers, I understand that sony is not really advertising their phones like samsung does, but still, all off you big youtubers should now about the XZ Premium, beacause it is not some unknown brand or something like that that did that first
Petre Mazilu I see where you're coming from, but first off, Sony made the sensor and people give Sony credit for that. Second, no one looks at Sony much because their designs are so 2007.
Petre Mazilu sorry dude.but over 3 seconds of saving time,outrageously short shooting time,and VERY tricky to trying to shoot at the right time.s9’s slo mo is just WAY better...
I obviously didn't know you could disable it, but thanks for that. I don't use it and often push it accidentally think I'm hitting the volume down button.
I think its good that Samsung implemented this new camera bc there is a lot of competition between both Samsung and Apple with all the different software and features, the fingerprint placement is indeed better and the S9+ would be the new phone to get in my opinion.
In all honesty you can't really expect much to change. Smartphones have pretty much topped out at this point and Samsungs really come as fully loaded as phones are going to get. It's like with televisions; how much has really changed in televisions in the last three years? Not much. It's topped out.
Aeons of Blight NO. MOST don't change because it's a waste of money to do so. You can but most people don't change their TVs until it breaks. Of course there are people like you who would do so but TV's changes are so minor that it's STUPID to change even if you have plenty of money to do so.
TheDark Knut I thought the same with the S7. The designs are better than good enough to last two cycles, and I always like to wait for the original glitches and flaws to be fixed before I pick up a phone.
Not really complaining, but for the pricing, they could have at least tried to do something about minimizing the bezels even further or completely fixed the speakers. This design should have perfected the s8
No complaints and not surprised. They've been doing the same thing for the past 8 years or so? S2 new phone, S3 improved s2, s4 new phone, s5 improved s4 and so on. The S10 will be a new design again.
YES! I've been waiting for this phone since 4years ago. After getting this phone, I'm gonna be waiting for the Galaxy S100 that can transform into an airplane!
Eh, I think we've reached the max in terms of smartphone innovation...need more advanced tech in the next couple years to really get something totally new with these flagship phones
lmao i was considering the s10 plus but the pill and the indisplay scanner were pul off for me so went with the s9 plus ..the iris is damn good compared with the in display fig print
yeah don't get an S9 if you don't need to. getting an used s8 is probably better depending on your needs. i would myself not get an s9 and wait for the note 9 or the s10
I just bought an S8+ last year for Samsung to make a phone with a camera that does slow motion for their flagship and almost nothing else in it. They should've skipped the S9 and just threw this into the Galaxy X. Meanwhile I'll just save my money for THAT one which will hopefully be out next year, the S9 seems to be a waste of money if you already own an S8.
Matthew Thoreson well, I have a S4, it works perfectly. Not sure what real new major technology I would find in the S5, S6, S7, S8 or S9. And when I buy something, I like it to last. My oldest watch is a 1939 one.
that would be a new design just for the sake of a new design. Last years design is still up there with the best phones, not sure what they could improve dramatically in a one year timeframe. Slimmer ? Less bezel ? Meh, already pretty great. For me personally, i would like to see them mess less with the software, get rid of that bixby shit etc.
Kevin L yep, the variable aperature is hardware based and will never come to the S8, but the new camera app interface might. Of course, that won't mean the S8 camera will be any better than it is now.
Fahad Shaik exactly.. The S9 isn't worth the upgrade from S8... As Note 8 to Note 9... But if you owns an older device like S6/S7...and plan to upgrade... You better go straight to the S9 although S8 will be cheaper.. Because even if it looks 98% similar the upgrades you are getting is still significant
Kevin L I guess it really depends. If you really value the camera, the upgrade might be worth it. Otherwise, there's nothing worthwhile the S9 can do that the S8 can't.
No thanks. I'll probably wait for the note 9 or the s10 to switch my s8 for one of them as I don't see that much of an improvement over last year's model.
Gs8 had a great design and Samsung doesn't need to change it every year so I don't get why people are complaining the Gs9 is the same as the gs8... IPhone has had the same design for years up until the iPhone x! I love the gs8 design...
But you get the double standard right? When iPhone didn't change its design and just changed its specs the Android fanboys were screaming "IT'S THE SAME DESIGN AGAIN HAHAHAHAHAHAHA". Now that Samsung does the same thing Android fanboys are like "The s8 design was great. I don't want it to change". The hypocrisy is real with you, guys
Syuna lol infinity screen is in S8 earlier than iphoneX or if u can trace it Sharp Aquos with Android had it first. I’m using 6s right now but that doesnt make me a fanboy.
Mike Georgiadis Bro bro bro. There is a difference in naturally reusing a design for 2 years like literally every company that matters does. And using the same design for 4 years like apple. Not hypocrisy at all if you do your homework...
i'm starting to get bored with new flagships. the improvements are minimal now because displays, processors, cameras have become so good. i don't know what they can do to impress me at this point
I agree, I really want to see battery technology get better. That’s really the only thing I can think of that smartphones need. The variable aperture is still pretty cool, though. Just not something that blows me away personally.
It's a phone that's clearly aimed at social media users, particularly Instagram. I always wait a bit before I upgrade in tech when everything runs smooth and the cost is the best. Most people don't use all of the features of phones from 5 years ago and still upgrade lol. I hope that camera is worth it to them!
If you've got an S8 or a Note 8,it doesn't seem that you'd need to upgrade. It's got pretty much everything the S9 has outside of the new camera and a better Snapdragon. Oh, and Animojis. Lol.
Miguel Angel Medina Rise Not for 3 Years, but at least for the next one. After two years, they're just not fun to use anymore, at least that's what I experienced with my older ones.
technofreak ah so you buy them for the thrill. I have an s6 that's still good minus the battery. I prefer longevity. I used to love phones for their new features. But nowadays I just want something that works well
I remember the Galaxy S9 was my 1st ever flagship Smartphone and I remember not being all that impressed with the camera. Stepping up from a budget phone the ZTE ZMax Pro the biggest noticeable upgrade to me was battery life. Everything else really didn't feel all that special or any better then what I already had on my Z Max Pro. After the Galaxy S9 I got a Razer Phone 2 which was an absolute disaster lol. At 1st it was nice it had a beautiful big 1440p screen that was very bright and sharp. The dual front facing speakers sounded great it was awesome but after about 6 months the USB-C port broke and could barely charge the phone. I'd either have to hold it all the way in or set my phone at a specific angle and it would have to sit absolutely still And even if it did charge it would charge super slowly like an hour just to get to 15% it was a nightmare. Also the one of the speakers stopped working and all of this happened without me ever dropping the phone or getting it wet or anything it was water resistant so even if it did get wet it shouldn't have been a problem. Well the biggest pain came from the fact that for another 6 months after it broke Razer basically ignored any attempt I tried contacting them to get warranty services. Right up until like a few days before the Warranty expired and then they tried to deny me service until I proved to them I had been attempting to contact them to get Warranty service for the last 6 months. They finally gave in and repaired my phone only for it to be shipped back toe still broken. A few days after receiving it back it did the exact same thing with the stupid USB-C port not working. So I contacted Razer again to fix it again but while it was shipped away I got the new Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. Now this phone has been an absolute dream it was works perfectly fine has a beautiful large screen and absolutely amazing camera. I have taken some of the most breath taking photos with this camera it's insane.
It was expected, the same thing was done with S6 and S7. Minor upgrades, evolution of the existing, basically fixing everything that's wrong with the previous model.
Your the only person i know online and off line, even in the Samsung flagship stores in London nor any moblie store who displays the S9 knew how to get the 240fps at 1080p turned on i had to look in my youtube for your video to show them how to do it...at first everyone said it doesn't do it ...but thanks to you i shown them that it does but i wanted to know if could keep record as long as you have hardisk space. So hats off to you and you should high light this factor.
With a tech21 evo check case i love the placemet on my note 8. When i needed to use my older phone for a thing it felt unnatural to bend my finger to reach it in the middle
Zeon Dubstep kinda disrespectful that he never replies to anyone on UA-cam ever. He uploads cashes in his UA-cam check and dosent even check up on comments
ProGamer He's not some pathetic bitch complaining in the comments, and with his busy schedule he doesn't have time for one. He says everything he needs to in his videos
I always buy a one year old used phone. With a careful check and 2 - 3 day money back guarantee, you'll end up with a still powerful phone, unnoticeable difference in battery life and a mid-range price. Also if you end up sell it the next year, it wont depreciate as much as if you sell it one year after bought it new. Unless of course if you buy it with contract.
Bugs Agent I feel the same way but I'm with vzw and I don't know what others did but if you pre ordered they let you have it for$15 (both models) a month, then after full release it went up to $30 and more maybe $36. So I'm on the fence. Maybe others too? Oh then it was later on at higher price they offered the bogo free. Ugh! Decisions!
George Y sometimes larger battery doesn't mean better. I seen countless videos of the Versus battery drain test. Huawei has a 4000mah battery and the v30 and s8+ with a lesser size did considerably way better than it
Honestly though with such a huge release last year what were they going to do? I think most phone releases this year are going to be a little bit boring.
Josh Kersey actually i heard samsung is saving their iphone x competitor for the end of this year. i feel like the s9 is just supposed to be a refresh of the s8 we saw last year. my theory is that samsung didn't want to skip the '9' like apple did and decided to just go ahead and pump out the s9 before releasing what's supposed to compete with the iphone x. we should probably expect another samsung release later this year.
SO WHAT DOO U WANT WHEN INDUSTRY BEST PROPER DESIGN , GREAT FEATURES, NEW CAMERA AND OTHER TOP EXISTING FEATURES ARE BRILLIANT...ITS GREAT PHONE TO BUY IN 29018 UNTIL SOMETHING FLEXIBLE COMES OUT...
I would guess that Pixel 2 XL probably still has the better overall camera for day to day use. Definitely some cool stuff here though. Software keeps me loyal to Pixel for now, so I’m looking forward to the Pixel 3, hopefully with wireless charging.
Marques, I don't watch very many of your videos, but when I do, I wonder why I don't. I always come away impressed with you and your team's work; not just the content, but in the excellent visual quality and editing, which makes the often boring subject of tech reviews, interesting.
In fact it's good. At least different colors and finish give this phone some personality when all the phones these days are slabs of black glass that's all.
Yea Samsung Galaxy phones dont have only 2 colors like black and white from a new phone from a fruit company we make more colors so it fits sombodys personalitiy
yeah , not much of a difference, the only cool new thing is the camera but its not worth to spend that kinda money for a new phone just for that if you already own an S8/S8 +
Alright, this animated emoji trash has got to stop lmao... I really wish we had the option to order one without the Bixby button or remove the button in general.
Joshua Keys who followd iphone there?? Is there anything new apple invented? Sony had a 3d mapping app before.. apple introduced an animoji machine but Samsung brings now real interesting 3d mapping here which actually can be useful
LaughingClown17 I'd say keep the button but allow us to remap it... I honestly don't care about what bixby does...lol they're the Apple of the Android world..
Didn't really expect a headphone jack... I'm impressed...
Ben Thunder I’m not hating on you at all. But Jesus I see you on every video I go to lol
Eventually, Samsung will have to remove it, their phones are starting to get ludicrously tall to the point where their “normal sized” Galaxy phones are starting to look like Galaxy Notes from 2015.
Amazing that we are impressed by a headphone jack in 2018 :D hehe
Endothermic Madness I am sure the jack isn't taking that much space that removing it would significant affect the phone size
Sid The Science Kid, the vertical direction is what I’m referring to. In the phone, the headphone jack piece is about as long as half an inch. I’m sure Samsung is eventually gonna take that 1/2 inch loss to prevent their S line from looking like the Note line.

sooo what happened?xxx
@@NedaMayMonadjem I was about to ask that 😂
iPhone XS max or TEN ES sounds like tennis
camera is good on both. it comes down to preference but the camera on xs is more preferred.
Its so surprising and awesome that it STILL has a headphone jack
TripZ why?
I love the headphones. You know how many times my wireless doesn't want to connect because the cellphone is connected also to other things?. Headphone jack is a must
TripZ more features are always better
Nothing to be impressed about, if you can’t afford some wireless headphones you can’t afford a smart phone.
Oscar Hernandez It's more along the lines of all wireless headphones sound like shit no matter how you cut it.
Every tech channel I'm subscribed to uploaded this video at the same time
it's called an 'embargo', it's basically the manufacturer saying you're not allowed to publicly say anything about the phone until a given date, given hour.
Same here haha!! I imagined that they all have a wsp group and like KBHD o anyone says: It's upload time! anda everyone put their videos.
I know right. The question for me now is after watching this do I watch the other ones? LOL

Saugat Nepal stop copying other peoples comment dumb ass.
Grey Tiger same design only.
If they were the "SAME" phone they would have dual cameras right? The same processor right? Etc.
@weed soup they arent the same. I have an s8 and s9. The s9 has more features on it, better camera, ect but has also same features on s8 but improved

I'm gonna wait til next years model's, my Note8 is still doing the job for me. If it ain't broke don't fix it...One Luv!
I am the same. I use my phones til they die.
note8 still good phone . i got s6 and im going switch s9
Yeah no hdr10 support better stick to note8
My thoughts are, the Note8 will be GOOD for atleast 2yrs and then we'll be introduced to the NoteX
mtctookie25
Why would you even consider changing your phone anyway?
Watching this in late 2019 I was gonna go with s10 but I then realized that s9 can hold up just as well
570$ on Amazon
Buy s10 instead because it has a better design compares to s20 and so
simple:
if you have an s8 wait for the s10
if you want to upgrade from s7 or older phone get this
S9 to s8 is iPhone 6 to 6s added a couple new features that’s it
Still have my S7. Very happy with it.
JasonGuitarHand same but am gonna get the 9 when my 2 years is up which is very soon
Voles sorry to burst your bubble but manu people prefer Android. Including myself. Used to own apple but never liked it
lherman12 hope ya dig it. That camera does look epic though.
Now I Can Finally Buy a S8!
Piyush Pawar Not quite the cut, but the S6 is getting indeed cheaper, why not get that instead?

Well Yeah, when Sony did the 960fps slow-motion nobody cared, but now that samsung did it, it's just amazing... get your facts straight, all of you youtubers, I understand that sony is not really advertising their phones like samsung does, but still, all off you big youtubers should now about the XZ Premium, beacause it is not some unknown brand or something like that that did that first
Petre Mazilu Mr mobile brought it up in his impression of the phone so some people know about it
Fact is it still isn't 960fps, just a number thing. 1080p 240fps is standard one till now. Not everytime bigger is better :/
Yeah because nobody cares about Sony's shitty phone line. Seems like Sony forgot to make the other features of the Xperia good too.
Petre Mazilu I see where you're coming from, but first off, Sony made the sensor and people give Sony credit for that. Second, no one looks at Sony much because their designs are so 2007.
Petre Mazilu sorry dude.but over 3 seconds of saving time,outrageously short shooting time,and VERY tricky to trying to shoot at the right time.s9’s slo mo is just WAY better...
I just want them to get rid of Bixby button. Drives me nuts in my s8+. Otherwise I have no complaints.
Why does it drive you nuts? Surly its helpful?
I disabled that ASAP!
Just want it to be a Google button like the pixel.
I obviously didn't know you could disable it, but thanks for that. I don't use it and often push it accidentally think I'm hitting the volume down button.
Just remap it
I remapped it to be a backbutton. Now it's the most useful button on the phone. The app is called Bxactions
I think its good that Samsung implemented this new camera bc there is a lot of competition between both Samsung and Apple with all the different software and features, the fingerprint placement is indeed better and the S9+ would be the new phone to get in my opinion.
༺k1ng༻ Still waiting on that 3D touch though :(
In all honesty you can't really expect much to change. Smartphones have pretty much topped out at this point and Samsungs really come as fully loaded as phones are going to get. It's like with televisions; how much has really changed in televisions in the last three years? Not much. It's topped out.
Hank Hill good point
I have a 1080p tv from 2012 and it's pretty thick, whilst in 2018 we have 4K HDR wallpaper tv's as thin as paper.
Aeons of Blight but do we REALLY NEED to change our TV because it's thinner? Its still plays everything. Let's be real girl
Patrick L No. We change because they do so much more and look much, much better.
Aeons of Blight NO. MOST don't change because it's a waste of money to do so. You can but most people don't change their TVs until it breaks. Of course there are people like you who would do so but TV's changes are so minor that it's STUPID to change even if you have plenty of money to do so.
Just wait two or three years it’ll get a lot better.

Keep a look out on deals just bought mine for 300$ I will know if it's the real one on March 16
The intro (not only the usual graphical intro, but the shots of the phone, the music and your words when you started the video) was epic.
Is it just me who has no complaints about the unchanged design? It still looks ridiculously cool!
TheDark Knut I thought the same with the S7. The designs are better than good enough to last two cycles, and I always like to wait for the original glitches and flaws to be fixed before I pick up a phone.
Not really complaining, but for the pricing, they could have at least tried to do something about minimizing the bezels even further or completely fixed the speakers. This design should have perfected the s8
I have the s8 and its beautiful. Glad they didn't change it, no real desire to upgrade now
No complaints and not surprised. They've been doing the same thing for the past 8 years or so? S2 new phone, S3 improved s2, s4 new phone, s5 improved s4 and so on. The S10 will be a new design again.
The camera is very NOTEworthy.
Francis C take a like
Badum tsss
YES! I've been waiting for this phone since 4years ago. After getting this phone, I'm gonna be waiting for the Galaxy S100 that can transform into an airplane!

If you have an s8, s9 doesn't worth the money!!!
Hahhahah me 2
So basically, unless you want the new camera. Might as well stay with the S8.

Outshhh! Atleast you got a reason now to switch. I am super happy with my s8 and wouldn't want to switch.
Eh, I think we've reached the max in terms of smartphone innovation...need more advanced tech in the next couple years to really get something totally new with these flagship phones
fingerprint in screen, unlimited screen (camera under the screen aswell)

The ARemoji looks awful compared to Animoji but the aperture thing is super cool and I hope that it is embraced by my cellphone companies.
This is going to bump up s8 sales
Now it's time to buy a used s8 for cheap price 😏
you aren't a God man. There's only one God :)
Junayd A.A well that's me 😎
S9 and S8 have the same price though. well depending on your country that is.
jone jenterlan I said a used one bro . I don't think I'll get a used s9 now .
yeah don't get an S9 if you don't need to. getting an used s8 is probably better depending on your needs. i would myself not get an s9 and wait for the note 9 or the s10
I just bought an S8+ last year for Samsung to make a phone with a camera that does slow motion for their flagship and almost nothing else in it. They should've skipped the S9 and just threw this into the Galaxy X. Meanwhile I'll just save my money for THAT one which will hopefully be out next year, the S9 seems to be a waste of money if you already own an S8.
Matthew Thoreson Always better to wait 2 years for a phone
But it’s definitely not a waste if you have an iPhone X xD
Yeah I'm keeping my s8 plus for now.
Matthew Thoreson well, I have a S4, it works perfectly. Not sure what real new major technology I would find in the S5, S6, S7, S8 or S9. And when I buy something, I like it to last. My oldest watch is a 1939 one.
frieswithmayo
I would suggest the s8 note. The s9 is the same thing as the s8. Just a better camera
Plus the note 8 has the pen
Camera stuff seems interesting, I was expecting new design
Check It Out it was one year.. many people like the design, and they can't change it every year
Check It Out That explains why you probably aren't an IPhone user
the s8 design is pretty amazing what would you want them to change that!
Check It Out apple reuse their design for 4 years
that would be a new design just for the sake of a new design. Last years design is still up there with the best phones, not sure what they could improve dramatically in a one year timeframe. Slimmer ? Less bezel ? Meh, already pretty great. For me personally, i would like to see them mess less with the software, get rid of that bixby shit etc.
So they basically fixed everything wrong with the S8 and added a badass Camara system? 🤔 I’ll take it. 😎☝️
Areeb Khan Anything software based, probably. Hardware based, no for obvious reasons.
Areeb Khan still you cant get variable apertures from a software update
Kevin L yep, the variable aperature is hardware based and will never come to the S8, but the new camera app interface might. Of course, that won't mean the S8 camera will be any better than it is now.
Fahad Shaik exactly.. The S9 isn't worth the upgrade from S8... As Note 8 to Note 9...
But if you owns an older device like S6/S7...and plan to upgrade...
You better go straight to the S9 although S8 will be cheaper.. Because even if it looks 98% similar the upgrades you are getting is still significant
Kevin L I guess it really depends. If you really value the camera, the upgrade might be worth it. Otherwise, there's nothing worthwhile the S9 can do that the S8 can't.
No thanks. I'll probably wait for the note 9 or the s10 to switch my s8 for one of them as I don't see that much of an improvement over last year's model.
Jack Dren agreed
Boi.
strue
Of course you will. There is no reason to upgrade your phone every year. Because all you got is just a small improvement :D
Valid
That's it!
I'm going back to flip phone
I'm done!

Doyin Sony why is that
Why exactly
Samsung making Samsung galaxy f soon
Gs8 had a great design and Samsung doesn't need to change it every year so I don't get why people are complaining the Gs9 is the same as the gs8... IPhone has had the same design for years up until the iPhone x! I love the gs8 design...
But you get the double standard right? When iPhone didn't change its design and just changed its specs the Android fanboys were screaming "IT'S THE SAME DESIGN AGAIN HAHAHAHAHAHAHA". Now that Samsung does the same thing Android fanboys are like "The s8 design was great. I don't want it to change". The hypocrisy is real with you, guys
Syuna lol infinity screen is in S8 earlier than iphoneX or if u can trace it Sharp Aquos with Android had it first. I’m using 6s right now but that doesnt make me a fanboy.
Mike Georgiadis Bro bro bro. There is a difference in naturally reusing a design for 2 years like literally every company that matters does. And using the same design for 4 years like apple. Not hypocrisy at all if you do your homework...
TheIronHunter yes yes!! Thank you
Syuna How the fuck did they steal the X’s design when their phone came out before the X?
i'm starting to get bored with new flagships. the improvements are minimal now because displays, processors, cameras have become so good. i don't know what they can do to impress me at this point
Definitely true. But variable aperture is definitely very noteworthy.
I agree, I really want to see battery technology get better. That’s really the only thing I can think of that smartphones need. The variable aperture is still pretty cool, though. Just not something that blows me away personally.
True
Which is why, you should not change your phone every year
Jonthegenius very true genius!
It's a phone that's clearly aimed at social media users, particularly Instagram.
I always wait a bit before I upgrade in tech when everything runs smooth and the cost is the best. Most people don't use all of the features of phones from 5 years ago and still upgrade lol.
I hope that camera is worth it to them!
it's always funny when you ask people what the new phone does better and they're like "uuhhhh...."
How's the call quality?
Jimmy Harry lol
Jimmy Harry .... the what???? LOL
VoLTE is pretty good on all phones nowadays...
Terrible! Hihi
Joking
horrible. samsung never good on call quality
If you've got an S8 or a Note 8,it doesn't seem that you'd need to upgrade. It's got pretty much everything the S9 has outside of the new camera and a better Snapdragon. Oh, and Animojis. Lol.
So as someone who doesn't give the slightest shit about the camera, there's essentially no change. Good to know.
samuraikatana1 same, all modern phone cameras are good now
Fire Water I mever use my camera. I think I take 1 pic on my phone and all the other picture are my son from 2013 that is save to my sd card😁
with that said, you should stick with a basic phone.
merk b I keep my phone for 2 years because I play this game called CSR 2 racing and it require a lot of ram👎.
Pretty much but then again what did you expect?
looks sexy af but I'll stick to my s8+ I'll move to the s10 when it's out
Smurf yep me too, doesn't really make sense to upgrade.
Not at all... Still love the design of the S8+, got used to that fingerprint sensor. No need for a improved camera, not for 950 bucks.
Why would you even consider it. Your phone is fine for another 3 years. S8 will be a classic.
Miguel Angel Medina Rise Not for 3 Years, but at least for the next one.
After two years, they're just not fun to use anymore, at least that's what I experienced with my older ones.
technofreak ah so you buy them for the thrill. I have an s6 that's still good minus the battery. I prefer longevity. I used to love phones for their new features. But nowadays I just want something that works well
I remember the Galaxy S9 was my 1st ever flagship Smartphone and I remember not being all that impressed with the camera. Stepping up from a budget phone the ZTE ZMax Pro the biggest noticeable upgrade to me was battery life. Everything else really didn't feel all that special or any better then what I already had on my Z Max Pro. After the Galaxy S9 I got a Razer Phone 2 which was an absolute disaster lol. At 1st it was nice it had a beautiful big 1440p screen that was very bright and sharp. The dual front facing speakers sounded great it was awesome but after about 6 months the USB-C port broke and could barely charge the phone. I'd either have to hold it all the way in or set my phone at a specific angle and it would have to sit absolutely still
And even if it did charge it would charge super slowly like an hour just to get to 15% it was a nightmare. Also the one of the speakers stopped working and all of this happened without me ever dropping the phone or getting it wet or anything it was water resistant so even if it did get wet it shouldn't have been a problem. Well the biggest pain came from the fact that for another 6 months after it broke Razer basically ignored any attempt I tried contacting them to get warranty services. Right up until like a few days before the Warranty expired and then they tried to deny me service until I proved to them I had been attempting to contact them to get Warranty service for the last 6 months. They finally gave in and repaired my phone only for it to be shipped back toe still broken. A few days after receiving it back it did the exact same thing with the stupid USB-C port not working. So I contacted Razer again to fix it again but while it was shipped away I got the new Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. Now this phone has been an absolute dream it was works perfectly fine has a beautiful large screen and absolutely amazing camera. I have taken some of the most breath taking photos with this camera it's insane.
It was expected, the same thing was done with S6 and S7. Minor upgrades, evolution of the existing, basically fixing everything that's wrong with the previous model.
SomeTenth 👏👏👏
SomeTenth trur
That's because companies have started to follow the tik tok model, tik means innovation and tok means iteration. You can thank apple for that.
s6 is the start of the edge phones wtf u on about m8
S. A. Speak for yourself
why do companies feel like they have to release a phone every year?
Armin Farhangpour money...duh
Armin Farhangpour its not even a year isnt it when the gs8 came out
Armin Farhangpour that how they stay in business
They should of name it S8s
Consumerism, my dude. They earn tons of money from people upgrading every single year. Plus, they have to stay competitive.
I see my notification and it has Jonathan Morrison ur average consumer and Marques Brownlee upload at the same time
Prathiesh Subramaniam and Austin Evans too
I still am content wit my s7 edge, not about to raise my phone bill again with a installment plan to pay that thing off, ill wait for s10

Even in his first impressions videos he brings up Dbrand LOL
Ruben Marquez they're the ones that pay the bills
I totally didn’t even notice it until I watched it again my brain just ignores it lmfao
Every reviewer does it D brand stands for D quality rate😂😂
I don't mind. The best skins I've ever used are from dbrand, and I wouldn't have known about them if it wasn't for these tech UA-camrs.
It's the sponsor
Your the only person i know online and off line, even in the Samsung flagship stores in London nor any moblie store who displays the S9 knew how to get the 240fps at 1080p turned on i had to look in my youtube for your video to show them how to do it...at first everyone said it doesn't do it ...but thanks to you i shown them that it does but i wanted to know if could keep record as long as you have hardisk space. So hats off to you and you should high light this factor.
There is Iris Scanning on the S8 as well!
Idk what is all the complaints about the the fingerprint reader. When i got the note 8 i was like. "Wtf?? This is reachable."
Sam Lung but u can't know wheree it is without a case
Sam Lung I have the note 8 and I hated the fingerprint location at first but you get used to it really quick and it's actually a really good sensor.
Andrew Golota i agree
With a tech21 evo check case i love the placemet on my note 8. When i needed to use my older phone for a thing it felt unnatural to bend my finger to reach it in the middle
It's unreachable for folks with baby hands
damn that camera lens is INSANE!
mattnospeedo but Snapchat camera will be just as good
mattnospeedo idk.. but I'm guessing it will use the camera from the actual phone, on Snapchat
it depends on the phone.
Alkalinan i thought when you on Snapchat, it uses the regular camera for any phone.. but guess not
It uses the phone but not the post processing that the uses. Other then the Pixel 2 which now supports it.
Bought it a year ago, still runs like a champ . *watching on the S9*
Watching on my Galaxy S7.
Vuk Tomić same .. i thought it was gonna be like so much better 😧 im thinking on waiting for the next iphone instead 🤔
same. trying to get the pixel. this phone has reached beyond its life with 1 yr of use
Same, Not for long😁
Galaxy S7 Edge for life!
S6 here
Sony already had a 960 FPS Slowmotion in the XZ Premium if you wanna check that out. Awesome vid!!
Can't afford it but still watching 🙃
When your bored enough to watch an s9 review on your s9. Lol😂
Such a good phone
@@Matthew456E exactly
If I had a dollar for every time Marques said DBrand, I would be Bill Gates rich.
ProGamer the more he talks about it the less I wanna buy them.
Zeon Dubstep kinda disrespectful that he never replies to anyone on UA-cam ever. He uploads cashes in his UA-cam check and dosent even check up on comments
ProGamer the only thing he does is promote Tesla and Dbrand 😢😢😢 he makes enough money from UA-cam, but he just has to keep promoting these businesses.
ProGamer He's not some pathetic bitch complaining in the comments, and with his busy schedule he doesn't have time for one. He says everything he needs to in his videos
ProGamer how does he get money from UA-cam? I never see ads on his videos. Is it because I have Red?
So, the S9 is officially announced by Marquees. Nice.
Watching this video knowing that i'll never own one
Triggly Happy exactly. I'll wait a few more years 😭
I always buy a one year old used phone. With a careful check and 2 - 3 day money back guarantee, you'll end up with a still powerful phone, unnoticeable difference in battery life and a mid-range price. Also if you end up sell it the next year, it wont depreciate as much as if you sell it one year after bought it new. Unless of course if you buy it with contract.
Bugs Agent I feel the same way but I'm with vzw and I don't know what others did but if you pre ordered they let you have it for$15 (both models) a month, then after full release it went up to $30 and more maybe $36. So I'm on the fence. Maybe others too? Oh then it was later on at higher price they offered the bogo free. Ugh! Decisions!
Goals
I love how he laughs every time he says Bixby. 😂 love you MKBHD.
All tech UA-camrs released video at the same time
Hmmmmm
Jahon Choriyev it's not uncommon for companies to not allow media release until a certain date
embargo lifted
From what I can tell, some of them got together to test it out, usually Marquees is the first one to get it
Hiram Hernandez nah supersaf was first
This explains we don't have a life and we watch too many youtubers 😂😂
10 Reasons why not to buy the Samsung Galaxy S9:
#1: poverty.
Jonathan d'souza 😂😂 that's true
#2 no major difference with s8
Jonathan d'souza Actually it starts from 840$(s9+) so no need to overreacting
Ryan Boyce well😂 you gotta be from Switzerland
Lmao you see the iPhone X price
iPhone 8 -> X (10)
Windows 8/8.1 -> 10
Samsung isn’t afraid of the number 9.
Last time they skipped a number.. it blew up in their face! Like literally blew up!
your vids are always so fresh and polished
I still wish they would have made both of them a bit thicker for a larger battery and then they could have made the camera flush with the back
George Y sometimes larger battery doesn't mean better. I seen countless videos of the Versus battery drain test. Huawei has a 4000mah battery and the v30 and s8+ with a lesser size did considerably way better than it
S9....more like S8s
😂😂😂
Guess if it works with iphone it'll works with galaxy S too *shrug*
Honestly though with such a huge release last year what were they going to do? I think most phone releases this year are going to be a little bit boring.
S TR cause iPhone doesn't release the same phone with less features covered up by higher definition for $1,000......
Josh Kersey actually i heard samsung is saving their iphone x competitor for the end of this year. i feel like the s9 is just supposed to be a refresh of the s8 we saw last year. my theory is that samsung didn't want to skip the '9' like apple did and decided to just go ahead and pump out the s9 before releasing what's supposed to compete with the iphone x. we should probably expect another samsung release later this year.
It's a really good phone but hands down the most boring upgrade Samsung has ever done.
Farshid Persia what do you want them to do, there is nothing left
Were you born 3 years ago?
Do you even remember how boring the Galaxy s5 was?
The camera technology alone makes this a pretty interesting upgrade.
Mohammad Berjees Lmao ! they could try that parachute thing ! 😂
Its still ahead of Icunt by years 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
SO WHAT DOO U WANT WHEN INDUSTRY BEST PROPER DESIGN , GREAT FEATURES, NEW CAMERA AND OTHER TOP EXISTING FEATURES ARE BRILLIANT...ITS GREAT PHONE TO BUY IN 29018 UNTIL SOMETHING FLEXIBLE COMES OUT...
Just bought S9 today in 2024. This phone is still amazing.
Samsung engineers some great stuff
OnlyComplexBills yeah I mean to say that
OnlyComplexBills how did they steal that stuff if it already existed before the iPhone had it? Fucking hate you apple fanboys Jesus
OnlyComplexBills Samsung did everything the iPhone x did before it came out
Nathaniel Kirk yeah it's true
OnlyComplexBills Samsung had Face recognition on Samsung 3 so whos the copier now?
I would guess that Pixel 2 XL probably still has the better overall camera for day to day use. Definitely some cool stuff here though. Software keeps me loyal to Pixel for now, so I’m looking forward to the Pixel 3, hopefully with wireless charging.

Marques, I don't watch very many of your videos, but when I do, I wonder why I don't. I always come away impressed with you and your team's work; not just the content, but in the excellent visual quality and editing, which makes the often boring subject of tech reviews, interesting.
you know it's gonna suck when he starts off "Whats new" with new colors lmao
Pramey what’s new and apple was like “we got rid of headphone jack”
What’s new this time apple “we got rid of fingerprint scanner as well “

Exactly who cares about that???😂😂
In fact it's good. At least different colors and finish give this phone some personality when all the phones these days are slabs of black glass that's all.
Yea Samsung Galaxy phones dont have only 2 colors like black and white from a new phone from a fruit company we make more colors so it fits sombodys personalitiy

Not worth the upgrade if you have an S8
Gøran Greggor don't speak for all of us. I've had the S8 since last April and I still want the S9 Plus.
But deep in mind somewhere we really crave for s9 😶
Trey Starks Who said I was speaking for "all of you"?
I expressed my opinion. Ever heard of those? Opinions?
Just had my s8 a few weeks ago for way cheaper, didn't regret it!
Sure makes the discounts on the S8 look better! The SD835 in the S8 is enough power for me!
It's the same phone as the S8, I'll keep my S8+ for now
Yea...
yeah , not much of a difference, the only cool new thing is the camera but its not worth to spend that kinda money for a new phone just for that if you already own an S8/S8 +
I still have the S7... is it worth it for me to make the move to s9?
if you can spend that kinda money then yes, but if you want a similar phone, its better to buy an s8 coz the price will drop after the s9 is out.
BUT U CANT EXPERIENCE NEW SOFTWARE FEATURES AND NEW CAMERA SYSTEM
Alright, this animated emoji trash has got to stop lmao... I really wish we had the option to order one without the Bixby button or remove the button in general.

You can turn it off. My Bixby button does nothing now and I'll just spam-press it when I need something to fidget with :)
Everyone wants to follow Apple...unfortunately
Joshua Keys who followd iphone there?? Is there anything new apple invented? Sony had a 3d mapping app before.. apple introduced an animoji machine but Samsung brings now real interesting 3d mapping here which actually can be useful
LaughingClown17 I'd say keep the button but allow us to remap it... I honestly don't care about what bixby does...lol they're the Apple of the Android world..
