The screen size reaches 6.2" inches. With a large display, phone offers a great experience for watching videos, playing games and reading. The best phones today are 6.5'' or more. They have the advantage of a large display area that allows you to see more content than with conventional display sizes. Owing to OLED technology, the display offers a true representation of colours, especially black. The resulting contrast is significantly higher and colours appear more vivid. OLED technology is now part of most smartphones, while LCD displays are becoming a thing of the past in mobile phones. OLED displays also have lower power consumption compared to LCD technology.
Display Resolution of Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) is 2960 x 1440 pixels. A higher display resolution is a prerequisite for a sharper image. The standard for mid-range phones today is a Full HD resolution of 1920 × 1080 px. Cheaper phones, which usually have a smaller diagonal, have an HD resolution of 1280 × 720 px. Smaller resolutions can only be found in older models. Best phones, on the other hand, have a 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 px. If you want a perfect picture, focus on pixel density in addition to resolution. This number indicates how sharp the image will be. Best phones today have a display fineness of 450 ppi or higher, but the today´s average is around 350-400 ppi. That should be enough for you to enjoy a fine and sharp image. This model has a pixel density of 529 ppi.

Processor Number | 9810 | |
Clock Speed | 2.7 GHz | Better than 92 % of phones rated. |
Processor Core Qty | 8-core | Better than 99 % of phones rated. |
64-bit Architecture | Yes | Better than 82 % of phones rated. |
The processor type of the Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) is Samsung Exynos. The number of processor cores is 8. It is a number of cores that plays an important role in evaluating the performance of phone as it is responsible for computing operations. Smartphones already commonly have a core count of around 4 to 8. Multi-core processors can perform better and reduce the processing time of a request to a minimum, which is reflected in the responsiveness of the phone, e.g. in the speed of opening applications. Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) is provided with processor´s frequency of 2.7 GHz. Normally today you will find this value between 1.8 and 2.8 GHz, and the higher the number, the faster the response of the phone. The processor frequency will thus be one of the important parameters if you are looking for a phone capable of managing several requests at once without major problems.

Internal Memory Size (Storage Capacity) | 64 GB | Better than 75 % of phones rated. |
User Memory | 50.3 GB | |
Supported Flash Memory Cards (Expandable Memory) | microSDHC, microSDXC - up to 400 GB |
The phone is provided with an internal memory of 64 GB. Internal storage capacity is often a key parameter, as it determines how many files, photos, apps and more your phone can store. If you expect to store low thousands of photos, some songs, few movies or games on your phone, then you can easily get by with a medium memory size. Phones with this size of memory also has the advantage of a lower purchase price. If you don't plan to use your phone for 4K video creation and storage, using hundreds of apps etc. then you should feel free to go with this memory size. Fortunately, manufacturers nowadays think of all users and therefore offer phone models with different memory sizes so that everyone can choose what suits them.
In addition, if you need more memory, this model offers the option of inserting a memory card to increase the storage size.
Operating memory significantly affects the performance of the entire phone. Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) has an operating memory of LPDDR4 SDRAM - 6 GB. Phones with less than 4 GB of RAM are better suited for undemanding users who use phone more for basic needs and some essential applications only. But if you are a heavy user, reach for at least 6 to 8 GB of RAM, which is the standard today, or 12 GB for the really demanding ones.

The rear camera of the Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) is equipped with 2 lenses. A larger number of lenses usually results in better quality photo, as each lens is designed differently: usually as a macro lens, telephoto lens or wide-angle lens. Macro lens is used for great close-ups, telephoto lens is designed for capturing objects in the distance as it often has an optical zoom, and wide-angle lens will take great landscape photos where you need a larger field of view. The main lens is designed as Wide-angle lens. A high resolution lens alone does not necessarily mean high quality photos. The main lens in this has a resolution of 12 Megapixel. However, if you are looking for perfect photos, in addition to resolution, don't forget to focus on at other parameters such as lens aperture or pixel size.
The size of the camera's sensor also influences the final quality of the photos. Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM)´s main lens is designed with a sensor size of 1/2.55". The higher the value after the slash, the higher the resulting photo quality. Luminance is one of the main factors determining the quality of a photograph. Commonly today, this value ranges between F/1.8 and F/2.2. However, best photomobiles have an aperture of up to F/1.2. Value indicates how much light passes through the sensor and the lower it is, the better the quality of the photos. Main lens here is equipped with F/1.5 and f/2.4.
Digital zoom in this case offers zooming up to 10x. Of course, the higher the lens value, the more distant object can be zoomed in. Nonetheless, the disadvantage of digital zoom is that the quality and sharpness of photo deteriorates when using it. You should also pay attention to optical zoom, as it is far more important than the digital zoom. Its main advantage is that image does not lose quality or sharpness as you zoom in. Optical zoom in this case is 2x. An undeniable advantage is the optical image stabilisation, which makes image significantly more stable without any loss in quality. Cheaper phone models are equipped with electronic stabilisation, which has a negative effect on the resulting image quality. If you like to take photos of people and portraits, you'll appreciate the facial recognition feature. The camera automatically detects face and focuses on it.
Second camera
The second lens of rear camera is designed as Telephoto lens. The resolution reaches size of 12 Megapixel. Furthermore, aperture of second lens reaches size of F/2.4.
Front camera
The front camera of phone Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) has one lens. This number of lenses is standard on most smartphones nowadays. The resolution of main lens reaches 8 Megapixel. Again, it should be noted that resolution is not the only factor affecting the quality of the front camera photo. The aperture of main lens is F/1.7.

The battery size of Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) is 3500 mAh. Nevertheless, battery capacity is not the only factor that affects the phone's battery life. For example - the size of the display, the performance of the processor, the use of data functions and, of course, the intensity of use of phone in general all have a significant impact on battery life. Standard for most smartphones today is a battery capacity of around 4500 to 5000 mAH. Phones with this battery size usually guarantee a phone life of at least 1 day. Older or cheaper smartphone models can then reach battery capacities typically around 2500 mAH and below. With this capacity, you may find that if you use your phone heavily, you may need to recharge your phone during the day. The battery life when making calls is, like standby time, a figure that tells us how long the phone will last on a single charge when making continuous calls. For the Samsung Galaxy S9+ (Dual-SIM) it is 1500 minutes. Many users will also welcome the wireless charging feature. Wireless charging keeps your phone from overheating and also protects the connector from wear and tear. On the other hand, it does cause some power loss.
