According to our mobile phone expert
With the camera of the Samsung Galaxy S9 you can take the sharpest photos in any situation, dark or light. The variable aperture allows you to determine how much light the single camera lets through. Or go for the slow-mo video: with 960 images per second you can see every detail of your tennis battle or that waterfall on vacation. Processing those images is no problem for the powerful processor and the 6 GB memory. As a result, the S9 can also handle demanding apps without problems. The Quad HD resolution gives you a razor-sharp image. With 5.8 inches, the S9 is relatively compact, so the device fits well in your pocket or hand. The 3000mAh battery supports both fast charging and wireless charging.
This model is specially made for the Netherlands and supports additional Dutch software updates and NL Alert.

Very good phone. Am very happy with it. A very good upgrade. Very good screen and feels good in the hand.
The battery is the only downside.

Transferring all the data from my old phone to my new one was seamless. I had to do almost nothing for it.
I do a lot of photography and sometimes look back at photos on my phone. The screen is razor sharp and gives a perfect display.
Because I travel a lot in humid and dusty areas, it is very nice to know that the phone is water and dustproof.
In the beginning I pressed the bixby button every time I wanted to turn the volume up or down. Very irritating.
Because I am abroad a lot, I almost always use 2 SIM cards. Very unfortunate that when using the 2nd SIM card, the extra internal card cannot be placed. Pity. I personally find this the biggest inconvenience of the phone.
I was hoping the battery would last a little longer. But after intensive use, it still has to be recharged at the end of the day.
The phone's camera takes nice, sharp photos. Not comparable with SLR of course, but certainly more than sufficient for 'snapshots' on the road. In situations where the light is worse, he also takes excellent photos, although these sometimes look a bit unrealistic, especially with artificial lighting.
I personally think the design is very nice and sleek. But opinions can of course be divided on that. The hand position is also fine. The housing feels somewhat fragile but with my phone case I hope that I won't have any problems with that. I also fear that the screen without the case will be damaged relatively quickly because of the curved edges. Facial recognition and fingerprint is a positive plus.
The sound quality of the phone is surprisingly good for a phone. The earplugs, however, are a different story. They are not really very good and start to irritate your ear after a short time.
My previous phone was a J5. The problem with this was that there was far too little working memory available. Fortunately, with the 256 MB of the Galaxy S9 that I now have, that problem is solved. But what is irritating is that Samsung still finds it necessary to fill the phone completely with pre-installed apps that you never use in your life and can never remove from the phone in your life. With the J5 it was so bad that I couldn't use the Android update with a new phone because I didn't have enough memory.
All in all I am very satisfied with this phone. It is an excellent purchase, which, despite the hefty price, is well worth the money. Especially if you already have several models behind. .

I switched from iPhone 6 to S9. For private and work I need two phones. I hate walking with 2 phones. S9 is Dual sim and iPhone does not have it. Dual sim works perfectly. On the internet I read that you could not install 2 whats apps but that is not true. When installing I was asked if I wanted to install two what apps. This works perfectly. The second has a small symbol in the corner. I also like that the charger and the earphone input are separate. I often call with earphones and sometimes I have the phone on the charger.
