Samsung Electronics has said the recently introduced Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ are designed with the latest technology innovation that is far beyond the consciousness of consumers, thus helping to put future generation mobile phone devices in the hands of customers before they even conceive it.
The Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ fuel new discoveries with Super Slow-mo video, best-in-class low light camera and AR Emoji for a more personalised way that will enable customers to express themselves.
Made for an age in which consumers increasingly communicate and express themselves more with images, videos and emojis, the Galaxy S9 and S9+ drive innovation with Samsung’s advanced camera. Redesigned with a new Dual Aperture lens that powers an innovative low light camera, super slow-mo video capabilities and personalised AR Emoji, the Galaxy S9 and S9+ ensure users do not miss a moment and make their everyday colourful.
The Galaxy S9 and S9+ come with the new SmartThings app, which unites Samsung’s existing Internet of Things (IoT) services into one single, smart experience.
Announcing the the devices during the media launch in Lagos recently, the Managing Director, Samsung Electronics West Africa, Jingak Chung, said: “The way we use our smartphones has changed as communication and self-expression has evolved. With the Galaxy S9 and S9+, we have reimagined the smartphone camera. Not only do the Galaxy S9 and S9+ enable consumers to shoot great photos and videos anywhere, it’s a smartphone that is designed to help them connect to others and express themselves in a way that is unique and personal to them.â€
Features around the front and rear cameras are designed to give customers the feel of more than taking photos.
The Galaxy S9 and S9+ cameras are built with consumers in mind, with a Super Speed Dual Pixel sensor with dedicated processing power and memory to take amazing shots with high photo quality. Some of the camera features include: Super Slow-mo, which makes every day moments epic with dynamic, slow-motion video that captures 960 frames per second. The Galaxy S9 and S9+ also offer automatic motion detection, an intelligent feature that detects movement in the frame and automatically begins to record. After capturing the Super Slow-mo video, users can select background music from 35 different options or add a tune from their favorite playlist.
It comes with Low light camera that enables users to take sharp and clear images in a super low and super high light environment.
The AR Emoji allows users create an emoji that looks, sounds and acts like them. AR Emojiuses a data-based machine learning algorithm, which analyses a 2D image of the user and maps out more than 100 facial features to create a 3D model that reflects and imitates expressions, like winks and nods, for true personalisation.
Samsung’s intelligence platform, integrated into the camera, uses augmented reality and deep learning technologies to provide helpful information about a user’s surroundings.
The Galaxy S9 and S9+ audio experience is complemented by Samsung’s revolutionary Infinity Display. First introduced on the Galaxy S8, the bold bright Super AMOLED Infinity Display blends right into the phone with virtually no distracting notches.
