Samsung Galaxy S9 Price in Singapore & Specifications

The Samsung Galaxy S9’s predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S8 were among the best smartphones you could get your hands on last year. While it hasn’t been a full year since its predecessor’s release, Samsung is now unveiling the Samsung Galaxy S9 this February along with the Galaxy S9+. Here are some of the significant features that you should look forward to:

Its Sleek Design

It seems that the S9 will have a smaller bezel compared to its predecessor. It also will house the fingerprint scanner at the notch at the bottom of the smartphone or could possibly be moved to a more central position on the back. Nevertheless, the overall design will be similar to the S8 Plus, featuring a glass back and a metal frame.

Long-lasting Battery

As for the phone’s battery, it is rumored to have a 3,500mAh which is reasonable for the phone's size. However, it is also possible that it could be somewhat smaller than the S9+ as seen from the previous year’s models. Regardless, we can expect the Samsung Galaxy S9 to be all-performing when it comes to battery life.

Dual Cameras at its Peak Performance

AS for the camera, the Samsung Galaxy S9 features advanced facial recognition features as well as a 3D sticker mode. There are also claims that the S9 will feature a discrete iris scanner that will be upgraded from 2MP to 3MP and a regular selfie camera. This is presumably due to the space limitations and supply constraints.

Another new feature that this phone will have is the ISOCELL camera sensors. These sensors are incorporated with the ISOCELL Fast, which is a 3-stack fast readout sensor that allows cameras to record video in Full HD (1080p) resolution with a whopping 480 frames per second. Besides that, there is also a feature called the ISOCELL Bright which supposedly helps by taking better photos, especially in low-light conditions. Finally, there is also the ISOCELL Dual that helps to improve dual sensor smartphones which includes better light sensitivity, depth effects, and sharper brightness. The final ISOCELL feature is the Slim which purportedly offers high-quality images.

Better and Slimmer Display

Although there won’t be major upgrades in the Samsung Galaxy S9 when it comes to display, there are some changes that you need to take note of. While this smartphone will feature the same curved displays with the 6.2-inch Super AMOLED panels, it will utilize more of the Y-OCTA display technology for this phone. Instead of using a distinct film-type layer like what you see in previous generations of Samsung phones, this advanced technology integrates the touch layer in the encapsulation layer of the OLED display. Thus, the Y-OCTA display on the S9 Plus will be thinner and have better optical properties.

Superior Performance - Bigger RAM

Since Samsung has already equipped the Galaxy Note 8 with 6GM of RAM, it would only make sense that the S9 could have something bigger and better. It is the boost it needs for it to stand out as not just a larger phone but also higher-end phone. On top of that, you can also choose between 64GB, 128GB, 256GB variants and perhaps as far-fetched as 512GB of storage.
