Samsung might unveil Galaxy S9 and S9+ at CES in January Already

Samsung might unveil Galaxy S9 and S9+ at CES in January Already

Just bought a shiny new Galaxy series 8 eh? Samsung might be announcing the new Galaxy smartphones at CES in January, to show the new S9 and S9+. A new report seems to indicate those rumors are true.

Citing “a source briefed on the company’s plans,” VentureBeat’s usually reliable Evan Blass reports that Samsung wants to briefly exhibit the new devices at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The company would still hold its official launch event in March, the report said, although if Samsung continues the trend of unveiling at the World Mobile Congress, it could be late February instead.

The two new models will likely look similar to the Galaxy S8 and S8+, featuring the same 5.8-inch and 6.2-inch curved-edge Super AMOLED displays. VentureBeat said a processor was not mentioned, but previous reports have placed a 10nm-process Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 within the new devices.

While the S8 and S8+ were nearly identical aside from the latter’s larger screen, the new Galaxy S9+ will offer a significant upgrade from its smaller-screened brother. The report has the S9+ with 6GB of RAM (only 4GB in the S9), and will come with a second rear camera. However, both units will boast 64GB of internal storage, expandable through a microSD slot, and AKG stereo speakers. And, unlike the current iPhones, both will retain their headphone jack.

The report also seems to validate recently leaked renders showing a change to the back of the units, placing the camera and fingerprint sensor in a vertical group instead of horizontal, which had been a major complaint of the Galaxy S8 devices.

If Samsung does indeed show the new devices off at CES, it will be interesting to see just how much info is revealed along with them. The company will need to save some surprises for its launch event.

a phone that isn't using the snapdragon 835! what is this! Blasphemy... In all seriousness, phone technology has gotten to such a crawl in recent years. Wish companies would invest more into battery technology... mind you it means i can use my phone for years to come on a cheap £5 sim only contract :D

Do I see what I see? After so much blah blah marketing about "bezel-less" screen design, a model with a cover like this one="bezel" this thick? And the rest of the design...well, it looks like a replica of a coffin... Appropriate, if you're into funeral busyness, I guess...

there many battery research and some even backed from samsung
(http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/130380-future-batteries-coming-soon-charge-in-seconds-last-months-and-power-over-the-air)
but it need to takes many test and the other biggest challenge probably mass-producing like we can do with current battery tech
so it will be a while before eventually we getting new battery tech

but again, current smartphone even not user replace-able, its not hard to get it replaced by official service center, and not that expensive either (if i dont wrong, samsung always replace battery with any display replacement service... so incase you broke your display, samsung service will also replace the battery with new one)
most current li-ion battery will last avg. at 2 years before user getting massive capacity lost
and samsung says they also improved S8/S8+ note8 battery too so it will last longer than previous model

smartphone sure coming to idle-era much sooner than pc... its like only in 5years that improvement feel not really much again
but computing tech sooner or later will eventually come to same things

we can keep making faster stuff but again do faster stuff make "real" improvement for user?
like in pc, when everything load fast enough that user barely feel improvement over their cpu upgrades

not sure if keep supporting older devices (spread over many OS version) that holds back (or have some relation) the improvement or not
