Samsung Galaxy S9+ Official Image Leaked
Samsung will launch the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ at MWC 2018. The press conference is set for the 25th of February and there is an obvious buzz around the devices. We have seen enough leaks and renders of the smartphones to tell us that they won’t look too different from their predecessors. But, we finally have an official image of the upcoming flagship smartphone.
A banner advertisement for the Samsung Galaxy S9+ was recently leaked, which reveals the front of the smartphone. As expected, the Galaxy S9+ will have top and bottom bezels similar to the Galaxy S8+. However, the size of the bezels will be slightly smaller which means it will have a better screen-to-body ratio. Since there is no image of the back, it is impossible to tell what colour variant this is.
Apart from that, the image has some text written in Chinese. The text reveals that one of the variants of the Galaxy S9+ will have 128GB of onboard storage. This was also revealed a few weeks. A Chinese tipster, citing a company insider, had posted on the Chinese social media, Weibo that the Galaxy S9 will be offered in two options, 4GB RAM/64GB storage and 4GB RAM/128GB storage. The bigger sibling of the two, the Samsung Galaxy S9+ will be available in 6GB RAM/64GB storage, 6GB RAM/128GB storage and 6GB RAM/256GB models in major markets across the world.
Rumour Roundup:
The smaller sibling will have a 5.8 inch Super AMOLED display while the Galaxy S9+ will have a 6.2 inch display. Both the devices will have a 2960 x 1440 px resolution.
Similar to its predecessor, the Galaxy S9 will have a single 12MP SuperSpeed Dual Pixel camera. This time around, however, the camera will have an f/1.5 aperture and record super slow motion videos at 480fps. The Samsung Galaxy S9+ will become the second phone from Samsung to feature a dual-camera setup on the back after the Galaxy Note8. The Galaxy S9+ will have a 12MP camera with an f/1.4 aperture along with another 12MP camera with an f/2.5 aperture
Owing to the launch of the Samsung flagship phones, a lot of companies have restrained from making significant announcements. It was recently revealed that Xiaomi could skip the Mi 7 launch at MWC as well, similar to what Huawei and HTC will do. The Galaxy S9 will be priced at Rs. 69000 in India.
