The Most Underrated Smartphone is now 500$

The Most Underrated Smartphone is now 500$

As the New Year is around the corner many of you would have already chosen your Smartphone of the Year but wait let me stop you there! What if I tell you while others are adopting iPhone like notch it has a best in the class display with no notch, supported by a flagship processor with flagship level specs and wait there is more to tell… A HEADPHONE JACK!

Let’s end the suspense here and come straight to the point, I am talking about the Samsung Galaxy S9/S9+. Launched in the January this year for about 850$ (roughly about 60,000 Rs) depends on your region. Always at the end of the month, the note series steals the limelight of the S series. Everyone is so busy appreciating the beauty and the performance of the Note 9, the Samsung Galaxy S9 is now forgotten.

As Samsung released their sales report it was clearly seen that the S9 didn’t do well as expected. Due to this, the price of the phone dropped down too much.

The Galaxy S9 scored decently in many tests of the Youtuber’s. Now you will say The Oneplus 6T is a better option in this price segment with an in-display fingerprint scanner, more ram, faster performance, better battery, dash charger, and the regular updates. But some don’t notice what the Samsung galaxy has to offer, a premium design, better cameras with dual apertures, wireless charging, water, and dust resistant, best display with no notch, headphone jack with AKG earphones, better stere0 speakers.

A thing to look out is that Samsung has optimized their UI and is now called as One UI, there will be a competition between One UI and the Oxygen OS.

The Samsung Galaxy S9+ will be around 550$ on eBay, search a little you will definitely find a good deal for the phone. If you are planning to buy a Galaxy S9 now or in early 2019 then you won’t be disappointed. It is surely a good pick.

Samsung One UI and the Android 9 PIE update EveryThingYouNeedToKnow.

Samsung One UI and the Android 9 PIE update EveryThingYouNeedToKnow.

First, the TouchWiz which we saw in during the S series launch, as it started lagging and was not so refreshing people didn’t enjoy the experience that other android devices were offering. Later Samsung came up with a different approach as Apple was leading in overall department. The launch of S6 and Note 5 turned the table completely, this was move from when Samsung started dominating the market. With a new improved design, camera, and features they also improved the skin which was then called the Samsung Experience. 

Now During the Developer Conference, Samsung unveiled and offered some insight into their new products and plans about software for the developers.  One of the big announcements was a big refresh for Samsung's custom Android interface that was introduced as “One UI”.

What is One UI?

The One UI is Samsung’s new version of Android Skin on top of Android 9. It is made with the goal to focus what really matters to you. As Samsung says “With hardware and software working together in harmony, see only what you need, using and viewing your phone with an experience that feels second nature.”  For this experience Samsung had done a lot of improvement over the Samsung Experience, removing the clutters and making it cleaner and responsive. 

From The Settings to the Samsung apps everything is revamped with a new look and simplified it, even more, to be easily accessible. The apps are focused to show only important information.

The buttons position have also been changed as they are shifted to the bottom to obtain more screen to body ratio. As Samsung phones ships mostly with their Super AMOLED displays the dark theme is going to prove a lot helpful in saving the battery life of the device. As the one One UI is based on the Android Pie we can expect all the new features of the pie and the new emojis, icon pack and many more

Eligible devices:-

·         Galaxy Note 9

·         Galaxy S9

·         Galaxy S9+

·         Galaxy Note 8

The Samsung Note 9 will be the first device to get the One UI followed by the Samsung Galaxy S9  & Galaxy S9+. Apparently, the Galaxy S8, S8+, S8 Active and Galaxy Note 8 will receive the One UI update as part of the upgrade to Pie sometime next year.
