Good value for money, I recommend.

I have been using for about 3 years Sounds better than iphone 11 Got pros: - screen: bright, many color settings, fast response - excellent build quality - you can disable Bixby (completely) )) - special glitches, freezes, etc. not seen - the camera is great! pictures just like on a DSLR, panoramas "stick together" perfectly - built-in sensors work great - charges in about 1.5 hours (not on fast charging!). I didnā€™t try the fast one (itā€™s a pity for the phone) - good sound - 2 sim cards (workā€¦

Great product, best quality.

They took it as soon as it came out. I left the iPhone I have been going with him since December 2022 and have never disappointed me, there is enough memory, the camera is gorgeous, the screen is super, the batteries are enough, you donā€™t have to go always and everywhere like with an apple with charging. As many complain that due to the roundness of the screen, there are unwanted clicks, hmm . strange, I have never had this in 2 years . the application pulls everything, does not lag, does notā€¦

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

I will support that the transition from earlier models is very pleasant and logical. The device is ideal for those who do not like Apple. Of course, the price is clearly too high, but the previous models are not so fast and cheaper as before. device is good Different pros: Lives up to expectations, he used s7, his wife s8 transferring the fingerprint is logical and convenient. So far, for 6 days of use, the shortcomings have not been noticed Cons: taking into account the android, the batteryā€¦

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

It's good that I bought it on pre-order . I had the opportunity to return it within a month ago. Which is what I did. For that kind of money, itā€™s probably better to buy some kind of pure Chinese or even two)) With its pros. Everything but the battery. They made some kind of toy smartphone, with which you always have to sit next to the outlet. You leave the house and already think about where to recharge. You can make it twice as thick, although you will feel it in your hand, but you can makeā€¦

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I chose the phone for a long time. S9 and Huawei P20Pro reached the final. I note that I did not test, but chose only according to descriptions, reviews and reviews. At the same time, the iPhone was not initially considered (yes, this is personal). As a result, I settled on S9 (although I still havenā€™t decided which is better for me: it or S9 +). The Samsung was more to my liking because of the design (I like that curved screen without that stupid newfangled "eyebrow"). Plus, Koreans, unlikeā€¦

Pros
  • - Excellent design (subjectively, but I express my preferences); - Excellent camera (software processing is super, and the number of megapixels has not played a role for a long time); - Performance (everything works very fast); - Cellular, Internet and Wi-Fi work better than on my previous phone (Nokia Lumia 930), good connection even in hard-to-reach places; - Water protection (I like to drown phones in the bathroom; however, this one has not yet had time, but if there is no protection at all, then splashes are dangerous); - Screen (top of the top); - Multifunctionality (and the presence of various useful options, for example, the Edge panel, which is removed from the screen, and in which you can hide the icons of the main applications); - It is convenient to use (including with one hand + in the case the phone is well held in the hand, does not slip); - Build quality; - Classic headphone jack (still relevant for me); - The presence of a cover in the box.
Cons
  • - Bixby button (however, smart people suggested that you can change its purpose to almost any other using the bxActons application, which I already did); - The location of the volume button on the left side (but this is subjective - just on the right is more familiar); - High price (but this is also subjective; in fact, it's worth it); - The need to choose for a long time between the usual S and S +, and now it's not only about the screen size, but also about the functions (I thought for a long time, but did not find an answer which is better); - Battery. But thanks to fast charging, this is not so important. Plus, with normal use, it lasts for a day.

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

I chose the phone for a month and bought the LG V30 + first, the phone is good, but the size is too much for me. Before that, I owned Xiaomi Redmi 4 pro for 2 years, an excellent working device for my money. I probably wanted a better camera and the size is not a shovel. , so I had to look for an American. I have owned the phone for 4 months, everything works as it should. Its pros: I chose a model for the American market (unlocked) on the Snapdragon 845, I was looking for a new one, so that Iā€¦

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Without hesitation, I bought the Asian version for 17 thousand cheaper than ROSTAT, since I see absolutely no point in such an overpayment and in the future I will also take non-certify products. I chose between S9 and S9 + and, because of convenience, I chose the usual nine, since plus itā€™s not very convenient to hold it in one hand and type, and Iā€™m not a fan of clunky shovels. I read a lot of negativity about a weak battery, to be honest, I have enough for the whole day, but this is for meā€¦

Pros
  • Cool, stylish and unique design, unlike different Chinese who like to copy the design, mainly from the iPhone. Camera, screen, stereo sound, assembly, high-quality materials. The print and the phone itself work smartly. In fact, this model completely suits me and I donā€™t see any big flaws. A silicone bumper case was included in the kit.
Cons
  • The first is, of course, the price, for the officials it just rolls over. The second is a combined memory card slot and a SIM card, for such a price they could do everything separately, well, the battery autonomy wants the best.

Expectations were not met, average quality.

Mediocre, but a trio of features: a screen that does not hurt the eyes, two speakers and not yet insane speed of work make it normal, on a solid 3. But you have to endure a bad camera, battery, bixby and unnecessary taps on the screen due to stupid roundness. Its pros: Good screen quality, two speakers, and not one, and the minimum acceptable speed of work make the s9 more or less high, but there are disadvantages that interfere. Also, a plus can be attributed to a 3.5 mm jack and not a badā€¦

Good product for me, I was satisfied with the price.

In recent years, I have alternated between Apple and Samsung phones. Before that, there were Sgs 7 edge and iPhone 5/6. Recently I took an iPhone XR from a friend and realized that I need to change it back . Although the Samsung is awesome in terms of functionality and appearance, in Apple phones I singled out the main and most necessary for myself better than in Samsung.

Pros
  • Screen -Appearance - Main camera -Multifunctional -Contents of delivery -Full phone customization - Notification indicator (also adjustable in color to messengers)
Cons
  • -Front camera (well, what a horror? During the day you can still take a more or less good photo, but a little bad light, the photo is all soapy, the face seems to be under a hard photoshop, it feels like I'm taking a picture on the phone for 10k) and the lens after the ate is very close, I have to take a photo with outstretched hand, I noticed that in sgs 10/20 the situation was not corrected - Screen repair (the price is half the cost of the phone itself) -For 1.5 years, the price has fallen by half (although in 2022 the price for it was 60k) -Not a comfortable keyboard and terrible T9 (I always click on the wrong letters and T9 suggests words that are completely unrelated to the entered ones, and when your nails grow a little, you can hang yourself) -It's hard to sell, Apple phones from 2022 are still selling like pies -Memory always disappears somewhere (I have 32GB on my phone and a flash drive for the same + Google cloud) - there is no memory on the phone! -Began to get very hot in some applications - The watch constantly falls off the connection (samsung galaxy watch active) -Many editor apps on Android just don't exist

I definitely recommend buying, I didnt notice any disadvantages.

The camera from the S7 practically does not differ in quality, all the other goodies, as in the S7, are present: nfc, wireless charging, moisture protection, sensors, etc. The battery is certainly better than in the S7, but not to say that "it's fantastic"! PS: after half a year, the battery got fed up and keeps exactly a day! When it was new, one and a half two days calmly))

Pros
  • Appearance, lack of buttons on the front panel, multimedia and sound quality (stereo), type C, software speed
Cons
  • Itā€™s a little bombing from the fact that, like the previous S7, sometimes they upload videos to YouTube, I donā€™t know what it is connected with, with hardware or software, but Yolki mot@lki, could this issue be resolved in two generations !? O_o ps: in principle, not fatal and rare, but the fact itself. ps100500: a year after writing the first review, I am making an adjustment - I forgot about the lags, apparently everything was cured by numerous flashings, now in general everything is fine, I'm waiting for S11))

I'm not particularly happy, but basically everything is fine.

Even for 21k. for the beginning of 2022, this device leaves dubious impressions, this is the second Samsung device after s4, and, along the way, the last one. Yes, by the way, it also warmed up abnormally to the boiler once and turned off while listening to music, perhaps someone considers the story of samsa explosions a myth, but before that, the s4 also warmed up once while waiting to the degree of "hot potato".

Pros
  • - the first and damn important plus: I donā€™t know what the Koreans assembled it from and how, but this stuff doesnā€™t break at all, Iā€™ve been carrying it without a cover for half a year, dropped it several times, including one on the tile in the entrance and just on the parquet with half a meter and . nothing . maybe there are micro-scratches, but I didnā€™t notice them, maybe you can see something under a magnifying glass) - design - damn nice, looks fresh against the backdrop of dozens of copies of the iPhone (at least for me) -up-to-date ates so far (I haven't noticed much of a difference so far. Probably a few rarely used items in the menu and settings) -camera, stable and fast opening at least
Cons
  • - AUTONOMY - I knew that Samsung had these problems on flagships, but so. in the first few days it already became clear that the battery drains decently while using the phone, but in standby mode the charge was consumed much less. As a result, after a few months, autonomy disappointed, the device lasts for half a day in active use, regardless of the power consumption mode, given that there is very little software, if the smartphone is hardly touched, the charge may last for a day and a half ( - "fast" charging from s8, samsung, alo! Chinese semi-state employees, released two or three months after s9, charged one and a half times faster with a battery of 3.5-4k Mah (no, not Xiaomi)) right there, everything is extremely bad with samsa, powerbank is in your hands ( -BRAKES! I donā€™t know what the reasons are, in exinos, in Samsung optimization or just in the Androyd axis, but here it is noticeable, and extremely unpleasant for a device with a price at the start of 59990, iphone 6s almost always worked faster and more stable, and how old it is already ? -ergonomics - yes, this damn curved screen shines futuristically on the sides in the dark, but you will have to pay for it with a bunch of random clicks ( -advertising in the panel! damn it, untargeted ad posts in the Bixby curtain, and this is in a device that someone once bought for 59k+ (probably in the + version the same problems, but I personally did not check) the last ate just killed all the other advantages of the curtain from for policy ates and agreements, eventually said goodbye to her - heats up, often, sometimes for no apparent reason : after one of the ates in August 2022, the batteries began to last for a day, overheating for no reason almost disappeared, the device began to work a little more stable)

No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

When I bought the phone, I also had S7 and S8 on hand. So, I chased the camera and the fact that when the s10 is released, the samsung s8 will drop in price a lot, and the s9 will still be profitable to sell. 1. By camera. Aperture 1.5 is good, of course, in words, because. captures a lot of light, a lot of counting, and the pictures are often overexposed, with unnatural colors. Itā€™s trite to take s7, s8 and s9, aim at a person in artificial light, s7 and s8 have a natural skin color, withā€¦

Pros
  • Fast, good battery life, good camera, sound.
Cons
  • Simultaneously with the plus, the camera can be attributed to the minus (the photo often lights up). Bixby button. The speakers either loudly play, then quietly when notified

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

In general, I am pleased with how this mobile phone has served me faithfully for 2.5 years. 4 gigs of RAM for 2022 is already very small - applications close every now and then, tabs in the browser practically do not live in the background. The camera was not bad for its time, but now many phones from the lower-middle segment shoot just as well. Its pros: For its time (2-3 years ago) a good compact phone: excellent screen, sufficient performance, normal amount of permanent memory. Cons: Theā€¦

I am satisfied, the product fully corresponds to the description.

I donā€™t know if it will be relevant in 2022, when there are more worthy devices and possibly at a lower price, but still. I bought in May 2022 for about $550-600 (there was a promotion in the store, so it cost $700-750). I chose between it, iphone xp, oneplus 7pro, sams s10e and google pixel 3a, but decided to stop at c9 because of the price, design and various features. And now, thinking about whether I regret buying it or not, given how much I paid for it, itā€™s more likely no than yes. But Iā€¦

Pros
  • - Screen: one of the best on the market. Watching content on it is a pleasure; - System shell: a wide variety of phone settings "for yourself" because of which you can quite say that the same phone for different people will be very different; - Design: I understand the taste and color, but in my opinion the phone is very beautiful, not pretentious, it is clear that the flagship; - A large number of useful "features": the phone has nfs, a good fingerprint scanner, a heart rate sensor, a retinal scanner (I did not use it myself, because a fingerprint scanner is enough) and other functions that I probably still have did not reach; - Always on display: just a very useful feature; - 3.5 mm jack: still relevant, for me personally, because I don't use wireless.
Cons
  • - Exynos: perhaps the most important drawback for me personally. There are two versions of the smartphone (exynos and snapdragon), unfortunately it was not possible to purchase a smartphone on snap, so I had to be content with this. In fact, all the shortcomings are tied because of the processor. - A large number of microfreezes literally almost from the first day of use; unstable work under active load (surfing in the browser, FB, YouTube and all this together); - heats up with active use; - unstable network (where my old iPhone catches the network perfectly, c9 shows 2-3 "sticks", once it happened that the network disappeared, albeit for a short time. However, this does not affect the operation itself and the quality of the connection); - unstable nfs (controversial minus, because I'm not entirely sure what the problem is, in my bank application or in the phone itself, but the fact remains - sometimes it works well, but sometimes it confirms the purchase once or even twice); - Camera: nothing supernatural, but expected more, especially from the front camera; - Battery: although I knew that it did not shine with autonomy, I did not think that sometimes everything would be so sad. The phone is enough for a day, a little more MB, with average use (social networks, YouTube + music and various programs); - Very easy button press stroke: accidental presses and screenshots are guaranteed; - Bixby: partially follows from the previous one, I will only add that the button is useless and it is impossible to reassign it without a crookedly working program; - and other little things.

Poor quality, I will not buy this product again.

Bought to replace iPhone SE Interested: protection against water (tested, used under water at home, dabbled in Adygea, as well as on the Black Sea, but pictures under water are not obtained), flagship specifications (2022), great camera, amoled display which should be very bright and save battery, 3.5mm jack (although I use both wired and wireless headphones), as well as the android system, which, judging by the reviews, has become much more user friendly. I was impressed by the camera inā€¦

Pros
  • camera, screen
Cons
  • 1. Battery life is a disaster. worse than the previous iPhone SE. 2. Screen. 3. Camera. 4. System - android with Samsung add-on.

Unattractive product, unprofitable purchase.

At first I was very pleased as soon as I switched from iPhone 6, but then a year later the joy was replaced by disappointment. Now I understand why I overpaid for Apple equipment, for 2.5 years of using iPhone 6, no problems and the battery didnā€™t sink like this, the screen obviously didnā€™t burn out, another matrix is ā€‹ā€‹less problematic, but with a worse picture. In short, I made a conclusion from my friends XS and for 2 years now and I have had no problems with the phone for a year and a half,

Pros
  • Price quality
Cons
  • The screen burned out after a year. YEAR! the keyboard on a white background is reflected on a gray half-screen, the battery also died in a year. Overly acidic juicy picture. Terrible lags began, autonomous phone reboots.

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

Before buying, there were no high expectations for the phone. After a few days of use, I was delighted with it. - (after 6 months of use) about the pros: + the phone continues to please with battery and photo quality (especially at night). + The battery holds 2 days confidently. With intensive use until the end of the day is always enough. I don't use my charger at work anymore. I donā€™t think about the battery level during the day, only in the evening I check whether I need to put it onā€¦

Pros
  • I bought a phone from Qualcom in the USA, respectively, and the battery holds incredibly well. I charge every 2 days, enough for a full 2 ā€‹ā€‹days and another 10-15% remains. With the same mode of use, LG G3 kept half a day, IPhone5 until the evening. Fast, sits comfortably in the hand, excellent screen and sound, there is a mini jack, I charge every 2 days, not slippery, good camera. If the phone is placed on the table with the screen down, the silent mode is turned on and when notifications are made, the rounded edges of the phone illuminate the phone in a circle.
Cons
  • There is the first Google Pixel, it shoots better and faster. The S9 takes good pictures, but even the first pixel is much faster and the photo looks better. However, the night shots of the S9 are excellent. There is no double tap on the screen to turn it on. Instead, a strong press on the screen in the place where the home button should be. Not very comfortable, but you can get used to it. The separately-remote bigsby button can be reconfigured to any functionality by the bxActions program. The bottom navigation bar is customizable via Navbar Apps (red icon)

Product satisfying the quality of the product, good price.

In general, the model is good, there are no really serious flaws in it, except for the fact that this is perhaps the most passing model in the entire history of the Galaxy S series. If you have s8, you donā€™t even have to think about switching to s9 (unless, of course, you are interested in such a disgrace as animoji or such a rather specific thing as very slow motion). If you have some earlier models, then the device is worthy and, apart from the price, everything is fine in it. But 5 points to

Pros
  • It's difficult here . It depends on what to compare. If with almost any other smartphone on Android, then there are a lot of them, there is a very juicy display, and a very fast and high-quality camera, and the overall performance is on top, and the 3.5mm jack has not gone anywhere, and even the bundled headset (if we consider it just as a complete headset, and not as a hi-fi stray for audiophiles) is simply amazing . But this is probably clear to everyone. I will compare with the Galaxy s8 which I changed to this device a couple of days ago. For me, there are exactly two obvious improvements: 1) The quality of the speakers. Yes, there are now two of them, they are louder, the sound is better and there is even some faint hint of depth and bass. In general, the phone is really not very bad. 2) Overall performance. Surprisingly, it works noticeably faster than s8. When switching from s7 edge to s8, I did not notice such an increase. Slowdowns in chrome on heavy pages have become much less. I canā€™t say about the camera, I shoot a little, Iā€™ll hardly use super slow-mo at least once, so for me these improvements are not remarkable. The camera opens and shoots even faster than on the s8, but I would attribute this to an overall very noticeable increase in performance.
Cons
  • 1) Price. Why the phone suddenly grew in price by 10% per year is not clear, despite the fact that for the user this is exactly the same phone as a year ago with minor improvements. Apparently, all this is the harmful influence of Apple and the only reason for the price increase sounds something like this: ā€œWhat, are we worse or what?ā€. Not the friendliest move on Samsung's part. 2) Autonomy. There are still not enough stars from the sky. Took the phone out of the box was about 50% charge. For an hour of tuning, I sat down to 13%. Yes, it was not an easy hour with transferring information via Wi-Fi and downloading applications from the market via LTE, but not 40% of the same percentage in 60 minutes. For an hour of Saturday morning surfing on news sites and other instagrams, it eats up about 15% of the charge. 3) The location of the fingerprint scanner. I donā€™t know for what purpose Samsung mocks its loyal customers, but again transferring the location of the scanner, when in a year I just got used to the previous one, is just wrecking. Although, it is worth noting, it has become better to work. D (03/24/2022): After two weeks of use, I can say that the battery began to behave better (screenshot attached), maybe calibrated or something, but there is no feeling that it is draining very quickly. My use case does not involve overload, I have enough for a day and a half. For the day did not discharge completely even once. You can live no worse than your predecessors. True, another problem appeared, with the 16.03, wireless charging was broken (this is especially ironic in the framework of the fact that they were distributed as a gift for pre-order), the phone heats up but does not charge (in my case, above 80%). We are waiting for an ate.
