In details, the dual-glass design and the polished metal frame alongside the 5.8&#8243; Infinity AMOLED screen. Meanwhile, the top and bottom bezels are tinier than ever. Besides, the Home key is beneath the screen, while the top bezel comes with the iris scanner hidden under the black glass.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the first stereo speaker is behind the earpiece grille, while the other one is at the bottom firing behind a completely new lattice. Besides, Samsung used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.akg.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">AKG<\/a> by Harman speakers with Dolby Atmos support and promises 40% boost in loudness (compared to the Galaxy S8). In addition, the other very obvious change is the comfortably placed fingerprint scanner on the back. Moreover, the LED flash is still single while also gets a different placement.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Samsung Galaxy S9 Hands-On at MWC 2018\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/thieBHLCwjA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy S9 will be available in 64GB, 128GB, and 256 GB versions boasting a microSD slot. Midnight Black, Coral Blue, Lilac Purple, Titanium Gray are all the color options available. Samsung has upgraded the Samsung Galaxy S9 camera a lot with a 12MP sensor with OIS, dual-pixel autofocus and stacking images. Also, Samsung has enhanced a new 4-frame noise reduction for 30% less noise than the S8 pictures. However, the highlight of the new camera is the variable aperture, which opts for f\/1.5 bright aperture, or f\/2.4 darker one.
