Samsung Galaxy S9 64GB G960 Duos Black

Description of the Samsung Galaxy S9 64GB G960 Duos Black

The Samsung Galaxy S9 Midnight Black is a high-end smartphone by the well-known South Korean manufacturer, which was presented on the eve of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. While the Galaxy S8 range was fitted with a whole new design, the S9 is a refinement of its predecessor.

Samsung has fitted the phone with a 5.8-inch AMOLED display with a very high resolution, which makes it perfect for all your multimedia content. The Exynos 9810 chipset forms the beating heart of the S9, which adds a range of great options. According to Samsung, this processor is up to 40% more powerful than previous processors.

Super AMOLED display

Samsung is one of the most well-known manufacturers of high-end smartphone displays. The Super AMOLED display of this black S9 is very impressive. The screen boasts excellent contrast and colours pop off the screen. This is perfect for all your multimedia content, whether you like watching films or playing games!

Thanks to the high resolution, individual pixels cannot be distinguished, which is perfect for content via Netflix or YouTube. The screen has a display ratio of 18.5:9, which is great for watching films and videos. The rounded edges of the display let you swipe smoothly across the screen.

Impressive cameras

The camera on the back of the Galaxy S9 G960 Midnight Black has a resolution of 12 megapixel. This may sound low, but megapixels aren't everything. The camera supports OIS, which creates steady images. The camera also comes with a variable aperture, which means that you can choose exactly how much light is needed for your pictures.

You can choose apertures between f/1.5 and f/2.4, which makes the Galaxy S9 Black the first smartphone with this low aperture. On the front of the device, you'll find an 8-megapixel camera with auto-focus. You'll be able to access a range of great features, like HDR, panorama view, and you're even able to create a time-lapse.

Refined design, yet little innovation

While the Galaxy S8 stood out because of its new design, the S9 comes fitted with a refined version of this design. The phone has a rounded design, and features a glass front and back cover. The fingerprint scanner has also been moved from the front of the phone to the back of the device, which is easy to reach when holding your phone.

This scanner can be found just below the camera, instead of next to the camera. This makes the scanner easy to use, especially compared to the Galaxy S8 and Note 8. On the underside of the phone, you'll find an USB-C port and a 3.5mm connection. On top of that, the phone has a microSD card slot, so you can expand the storage space.

Ample expandable memory

This black Galaxy comes fitted with 4GB of RAM, which makes this the perfect multitasking device! The 64GB of local storage space is enough for most people. However, if you need more storage space, you can simple add a memory card to add extra memory.

Processor by Samsung

The Exynos 9810 was presented previously by Samsung and forms the beating heart of the Galaxy S9. This octa-core processor consists of two quad-core clusters which offer different clock speeds. The maximum clock speed of this powerhouse is 2.9GHz, which means that the phone can easily hand big apps, games and tasks.

Great added features of the Galaxy S9 G960 Black

Samsung has fitted the phone with a casing that has been given an IP68 certification. This means that the phone is dust and waterproof. The phone also has an iris scanner, which is a safe biometric security measure. The phone can also be recharged wirelessly, which is a great feature.

Large battery with quick charge

Samsung has chosen to fit the device with a capacity of 3000mAh. The processor might be very powerful, but it is also very energy-efficient thanks to a range of battery and software optimisations. In combination with the battery, you'll easily get through the day. You can also use Quick Charge to quickly recharge the device if necessary.

Android with Samsung skin

Out of the box, the Galaxy S9 Midnight Black runs on Android 8.0 Oreo. Samsung has added their own skin, which adds a number of pre-installed apps and a different interface. You'll get access to Google Services, including Google Maps and the Play Store, where you can download great apps and games.
