Key Features of Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+

From the camera standpoint, Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+is a cut above the rest. The groundbreaking Dual Aperture feature automatically adjusts between f/1.5 and f/2.4 to adapt to any lighting condition, just like the human eye. A first in the smartphone industry, it allows Galaxy S9/S9+'s camera to shift between f-stops, a capability that normally DSLR cameras only can pull off. Add to that the multi-image processing technology that drastically reduces noise and improves the quality of the photo in extremely low light situations.

Dual Aperture

You can take beautiful photos during the day or at night. It adapts to bright light and super low light automatically, like the human eye. If you have an artistic side, try toggling the aperture to create a mood. 

Super Slow-mo

With an enhanced speed sensor, Super Slow-mo allows you to capture frames at 960 fps and the rest at 30 fps. The normal Slow Motion function captures all sections of a video at 240 fps.

• Super Slow-mo videos can be set on your lock screen.
• Turn on Motion Detection and the camera will automatically start filming at 960FPS when you need it to.

Easy Sharing

• You can share Super Slow-mo videos with your friends. Add music to your video with a random selection from preloaded choices or use a song from your own playlist.
• You can also make it a GIF with three styles of looping: reverse, forward, or swing. Please note that background music cannot be added to GIFs.

Bokeh Filters

Bokeh (pronounced as BOH-kay) filter makes photographs visually appealing by blurring out the background and focusing on the subject. The Live focus* feature lets you achieve a bokeh effect in your photos.

Augmented Reality (AR) Emoji

AR is a view of a physical real-world environment with superimposed computer-generated images.

• Use your selfie to create an emoji of yourself
• You can personalize your emoji with different looks
• 18 different AR emojis will be generated – check it out in the Samsung keyboard toolbar
• Animated AR Emoji can be recorded and shared as videos with your friends
