Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+ specs leaked: Top features, possible price, India launch and other key details

We’re only a few weeks away from the unveiling of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ which is set to take place a day ahead of MWC 2018 on February 25. With Samsung’s upcoming flagships being one of the most awaited unveilings this year, leaks and rumours have understandably picked up. The flagships are set to succeed last year’s Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ which were launched sporting near bezel-less displays or what Samsung calls Infinity Display.
In recent weeks, news surrounding the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ has picked up. Late last week, VentureBeats leaked renders of the two smartphones that tells us what we can expect, at least as far as the display is concerned. In addition to this, the handsets have also been tipped to sport improved cameras and a facial recognition feature to take on Apple’s Face ID. Here are some of the features you can expect.

TOP FEATURES

-- VentureBeats’ Evan Blass late last week tweeted renders of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+. The renders reveal an edge-to-edge displays on both the phones with bezels slightly slimmer compared to the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+.
-- A recent report suggests the flagships may come a technology called Intelligent Scan which is a biometric feature that uses facial recognition and iris scanning to unlock the phone in dark or harsh light.
-- The rear will continue to be made out of glass, but we do expect a little change in the look, especially with regards to the fingerprint sensor. According to previous renders, Samsung will move the sensor below the camera module for easy reachability.
-- The company will reportedly introduce a new Y-OCTA (Youm On-Cell Touch AMOLED) technology as well. As per the reports, Y-OCTA will allow the company to place the touch sensor directly on the flexible OLED layer. This will help reduce thickness and weight and could also make the display more touch responsive.
-- The Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ are tipped to house stereo speakers tuned by AKG. Both the smartphones are expected to run Android 8.0 Oreo.
-- Samsung recently announced four new ISOCELL camera sensors with each having a special ability such as improving light sensitivity and enabling high-speed video captures at 1080p at 480fps, among other things.
-- The upcoming flagships could sport versions of at least one of the new sensors announced. The larger Galaxy S9+ is tipped to bear a dual rear camera setup and could feature a version of ISOCELL Dual for better optical zoom, low-light shooting and depth sensing for bokeh shots.
-- The Galaxy S9 will feature a single 12-megapixel Dual Pixel rear camera with OIS. It is tipped to come with a variable aperture feature allowing you to shoot between f/1.5 and f/2.4 depending on the lighting conditions.
-- As far as the rest of the specs is concerned, the Galaxy S9 is expected to sport a 5.8-inch Quad-HD+ Super AMOLED display while the larger Galaxy S9+ will come with a 6.2-inch display. They are also expected to come with IP68 certification for dust and water resistance.
-- The flagships will be powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM for the Galaxy S9 and 6GB of RAM for the Galaxy S9+.

SAMSUNG GALAXY S9 AND GALAXY S9+ POSSIBLE PRICE

As of now, nothing has been rumoured regarding the pricing of the upcoming flagships. However, the phones are expected to be priced roughly similar to the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+. If this is the case, you can expect the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ to be priced around $720 (approx Rs 45,790) and $840 (approx Rs 53,400), respectively.

You can expect the flagships to cost a little higher when they hit the Indian market as was the case with the Galaxy S8 series. To recall, the Galaxy S8 was launched at Rs 57,900 while the Galaxy S8+ was priced at Rs 64,900.

SAMSUNG GALAXY S9 AND GALAXY S9+ INDIA LAUNCH

Samsung has usually been quick to launch its flagships in India after unveiling them internationally. The same can be expected with the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+. The Galaxy S9 series will reportedly be available for pre-orders starting February 26 and will start shipping on March 16. We can expect them to arrive in India around the same time.
