    Verdict

    The Samsung Galaxy S9 (4GB + 64GB) is a compact, premium flagship smartphone from 2018, featuring a 5.8-inch Quad HD+ Super AMOLED display with a 2960x1440 resolution, and powered by either the Exynos 9810 or Snapdragon 845 processor. It includes a highly-praised 12MP rear camera with a unique variable aperture (f/1.5-f/2.4) for excellent low-light performance and an 8MP front camera, plus a 3,000 mAh battery, IP68 water resistance, stereo speakers tuned by AKG, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and expandable storage up to 400GB. Main pros include the stunning display, fast performance at the time of release, and versatile camera, while cons include a modest battery capacity, a sometimes blurry low-light camera performance due to slower shutter speeds, and a lack of modern software and security updates in 2025.
