The Samsung S9 Plus became a sensation during its presentation at MWC 2018. The smartphone looks gorgeous both on the back and front covered with Gorilla Glass 5 protective glass. Its front panel has curved side edges, which appeals to users very strongly. It is even more powerful and has a better camera. Moreover, its functionalities have been enriched thanks to new features like animated avatars and artificial intelligence support. To this we must add the high-quality materials from which it is made and its excellent appearance.
