Pretty happy with this phone so far. The camera is quite good, haven't had many apps crash or need to re start. I use this regularly with android auto in my car. Decent battery.

A horrible waste of tech

published

this phone is absolutely the worst, things open when they shouldn't
I call people from my pocket
I,have to tap the screen so many times before an app opens.... Beware of this garbage.

This is a brand that I cannot do without

published

I received this Samsung after going into a Telstra store. The manager in the store advised me of all the advantages of having one and I also got a special deal on it. I have found it great as it satisfies all of my requirements. I now cannot go past Samsung.

Great workhorse, does everything I need

published

I have not had a moment's problem with this phone.
The camera is the reason I bought the phone and it's excellent both day and night.
The display is crisp and clear.
Apps run well.
I use it as a computer, a camera, a fitness tracker (Runkeeper) and of course navigator (Google Maps).
Hope I don't need to upgrade for a long time!

Beautiful phone, software is ok and the price is going down!

published

The Samsung Galaxy s9 is arguably the most beautiful phone ever created. Samsung Galaxy S line of phones are world famous for their design and build quality. Holding this phone in your hand is like picking up a device from the future. Battery life is excellent and Samsung's UI and operating system software is getting better with every update. Now that the s10 is out the s9 is getting cheaper.

Its ok

published

First of all the camera quality does not disappoint, as are all samsung cameras it is excellent on the S9. I have found the battery doesn't last very long, I have to charge my phone every night, the button below the volume keys for Bixby is a tad annoying or just may take longer to get used to. Overall I have found the s9 To be just as good as my s7 Edge and my rather cheap OPPO.

Amazing camera quality but battery could be better

published

As a flagship phone goes, everything is pretty standard. Speed is fast, touch is sensitive, interface is intuitive.
I take a lot of photos and while there is no "portrait mode", the "selective focus" does a good job of creating the bokeh effect. Where the S9 really stands out is the low light photography. I can take sharp photos with accurate white balance in dimly lit restaurants using the auto settings (attached photo taken at night and in the rain). The biggest downside is that even on a normal workday where I don't make extensive use of my phone, the battery only lasts one day on optimised mode.

Battery life bad bad bad

published

Had Samsung S9 for just over 1 month, battery life barely last 2 days on medium power saving. My Samsung S7 edge had better battery life, I have had an iPhone 7 (work phone) for 18 months, use all day during working hours last at least 3 days. How could you go so wrong samsung. Not happy

Easy phone to use

published

The camera quality is very good with this phone. There is no need to buy a separate camera. The phone is easy to use, apps easily install and I have not had an issue at all with this type of phone.

Great Phone, Has all the Bells and Whistles

published

Fantastic phone. The camera is great and the screen is gorgeous to look at. Samsung software is easy to use but at times feels like there is too much on that is not needed and makes the phone slower.

Camera quality is decent, occasionally plays up however most the time works well. Display is fantastic am yet to have a problem with it. Apps and games run smoothly and the built in cache cleaner app is fantastic.

Its ok! Not as 'Amazing ' as the guy in telstra said.

published

Was told the phone is amazing...
The camera never focuses, even when using the selective focus setting, it takes the photo but always says could not focus..
The battery life is terrible, my husband gets nearly two days from his phone, i get a day if that, i have only been up a hour took it of charge and it is now down to 78% and i havent watched anything just been googling reviews on this phone, and all open apps are closed,

Dont like how the screen goes around the sides so brought a phone cover,

I wish I stayed with what I had but ohh well

Reliable phone!

published

MESSAGING AND CALLS. - Very easy to call and to message people. Great controls and a great look. You can even put some contacts on your home screen to all them easily and set some numbers up on speed dial.

CAMERA QUALITY - Absolutely amazing. I have a good Canon camera & "some" photos I take with my phone, people think I took them with my camera & they become amazed when I tell them, that it's actually my phone. Love using the focus mode and it blurs out the back ground beautifully. Night mode is great when using flash .

BATTERY LIFE - Battery has been working fantastic for me!

Ok. Just ok. Several issues. Bixby is terrible

published

Screen goes all the way to the edge. I don't like that. I kept pressing things by accident. Phone is way to slippery so had to spend 30 dollars on a cover. Bixby is a joke. Should have stuck with the s7. I loved that phone. Wonder if I can find another.
