With smartphone usage increasing 42 percent during the summer¹, the Galaxy S9 and S9+ deliver on the features consumers want most in a smartphone:

• Fastest Performance: According to recent data from Ookla², the Galaxy S9 and S9+ are the highest performing smartphones on the market with the fastest download speeds—37 percent faster than the Apple iPhone X³. With access to carriers’ fastest network speeds, the Galaxy S9 and S9+ are perfect for downloading movies for long trips and sharing photos from amazing vacations.
• Premium Camera: The Galaxy S9 and S9+ are loaded with Samsung’s best camera yet, which features a revolutionary Dual Aperture⁴ that self-adapts between ƒ2.4 and ƒ1.5 apertures.

With all-day battery life⁹, Knox security and fast charging¹⁰, consumers can use their phone from day to night without any worry. And thanks to stereo speakers and a headphone jack, they can listen to the songs of the summer, all summer long.
