Samsung Galaxy S9+ is the newest flagship of the South-Korean tech giant. It is indeed the best Android smartphone available in the market right now. In terms of raw performance it does stands on par with other companies flagship devices as it is powered by a Snapdragon 845 Octa-Core chipset/Exynos 9810 (depending on the region from where you buy it). But when it comes to looks and design the S9+ takes a lead here, It looks stunning especially because of the astoundingly bright display and a design that blends the display to the rest of the body. And more-over this time Samsung has made a great effort in camera department. The new cameras of the S9+ can shoot excellent images in low-lighting conditions and over that the rear camera can also switch between two aperture sizes. In terms of photos and videos you cannot go wrong with the S9+. The latest offering from Samsung has everything that you could possibly want from a top-of-the-line flagship smartphone being it be the latest hardware, the top notch design and excellent cameras both front and rear. Having said that we should also not forget that it is not much different from the last years offering of Samsung the Galaxy S8+ in terms of design and performance and that one is selling at a much cheaper price thus coming out to be much more better value for money device. But still S9+ has its own advantages over the latter one. Keeping all things in mind the only place where S9+ lacks is the lack of hardware based face detection method, which would have disappointed many of its fans, but, nonetheless Samsung is Samsung and will hold its ground pretty well.

Will the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus stand up to the iPhone X, Google Pixel 2 and others? Are they worth an upgrade from the Galaxy S8 and older phones?
