OMG the Apple pro-bias Gsmarena has some moments is soooo disgusting!
There are many bits here and there, but what really stands out is where they mention that the choice amongst so and iPhone x is purely an OS choice, unless ones values the double camera and smaller frame. Like this is the only differences amongst those two and SO has absolutely no pros over the X. Since when the second camera is more important than better battery? Or ring loudness? Or price difference? The broken effect more important than a noisy picture indoors? Gsmarena always have to advertise Apple in each and every phone review?? Disgraceful...

Maybe you should read the final paragraph of the conclusion before thorwing words as paid, bias and other nonsense. Thanks!

Very biased review again!
Interestingly, these guys conveniently forgot to mention the iPhone X score on antutu 7. It is far inferior than Samsung Galaxy S9.
The fast charging is still one of the best on the market and it is double the speed of the iPhone X.

"The retail package of the Samsung Galaxy S9 should be an example of a flagship treatment and we hope other makers (one Cupertino-based company in particular) take notes."
Epic!

Kiyasuriin, 10 Mar 2018When alone, yes. A single G72 core is feeble. Couple 18 of them at 680 MHz (around that clock ... moreYep, Mali GPUs are weak. They have improved a lot over the years, but even with the Mali G72, it is still not up to Qualcomm's Adreno 630 inside the SNAPDRAGON 845 and Apple's A11 Bionic integrated graphics standard. When u compare the SNAPDRAGON with the EXYNOS, it always go neck and neck; in the CPU benchmarks the EXYNOS can be considered as the king of multitasking in the ANDROID world, while the GPU benchmarks the SNAPDRAGON takes the crown for the best graphics for ANDROID smartphones, it is always like that. If it is not because of the contract SAMSUNG had signed with Qualcomm, the EXYNOS would already be crushing Qualcomm's SNAPDRAGON...

that's someones opinion! it's not an objective observation. This shouldn't be in a review. Unless GSMArena is indeed biased in some way.

GSMArena seems to be getting paid by Samsung for praising every phone they launch, not fair reviews and surprisingly they get each Samsung device to review and before its launched anywhere in world.......

Jman, 11 Mar 2018Got this today, and it is a lovely phone, but it did lead me to think that in the future we AR... moreBattery life (in the case of S phones), slumped to the underworld between s5 and s6.
You wouldn't need fast moving bettery tech to solve autonomy. Just a removable battery and a system to swap without having to shut down the phone (i.e. a small internal battery).
The only reason it hasn't happened yet is because markets optimize for profits at the least possible risk level, not the opposite. Meaning they will take small profits if it doesn't come with an associated risk. Trying something radically new in such a mature market is extremely risky at this point.
When a market gets big it solidifies and gets boring.
There are a myriad ways to actually make phones better (and they may come after a few decades), we won't get them in the short term because comapnies are extremely risk averse at this point. Which is why you get mediocre products from companies that used to give excellent products...
Obviously we have not reached an actual plateau though. We are as far away from it as we were in 2006 where things were also slowing down and if it was not for Apple we would still live in that era thinking that there are no innovations of note...

Too low endurance. They should have 4000mah battery. One plus 6 or mi 7 will throw samsung in premium segment if its battery is more or at 4000..xiomi has kicked samsung from top in india with redmi note series..samsung should have learned from nokia failure ..nokia lost becoz of ram and battery. Now samsung and sony will be no more soon because of failure in battery . Excell3nt camera .Best screen.good speaker. Okay software .but worst battery.so thumbs down.
