There are days when you just want to attend a concert and not leave your seat to try and get a good shot of Beyonce wiggling; or nights when you are out with the whole crew of your girls and want to capture every moment in the dark. If that’s you, then oh boy do you need the Samsung S9.

Here is a look at the 6 top features of this new sleek phone and how they will make your life easy and more interesting.

The miracle S9 pen

I call it the miracle pen because you can work with your S9 pen remotely; even 35 feet away.

You can play and pause music and videos, take pictures and even perform a presentation without being present or very close to the phone or the scene.

This makes the Samsung note 9 a cool phone for students, DJ’s public speakers and for anyone that enjoys the comfort of a remote-controlled phone.

The pen also has two new color additions to it. The cute sunrise gold and burgundy red.

The awesome S9 camera

Forget about the slow-motion camera in other smartphones such as the Sony Xperia XZ premium which has been topping the lists. The S9 camera is a badass.

It automatically detects and captures action and then slows the recording down without you doing any work.

It can slow down a clip in 960 fps which is way higher than the standard 240 fps known in the iPhone X.

Samsung has also added an extra dual lense camera that helps shoot from far away and gives you greater portrait photos.

The S9 camera will be enjoyed by outdoor fans or under lots of light like studio or stage lights because of its dramatic effects. But that doesn’t make it a bad camera for the indoors, it’s just super better under some light.

Insanely cool Speakers

The S9 has incredibly cool speakers. The sound of them surrounds you like a rushing waterfall.

The speakers are on the top and bottom of the sleek phone and are 1.4 times more lurid than the ones on the S8.

Samsung used Dolby Atmos technology which makes the speakers sound more natural to the ear.

These speakers make the Galaxy S9 the best phone for sound.

New colors & a sexier look

Four new stunning colors were added to the Galaxy phones. Sunrise Gold, Coral Blue, A Midnight Black and Lilac Purple all hued in a highly-sophisticated look.

Each phone’s color surrounds the edges with so much allure. At least a color for everyone.

The colors also match the S pen for each of the phones.

Variable aperture-a clearer way to take photos in the night

The S9 camera still has us with its Variable aperture.

Despite all the tricks and technology that has been put in mobile phone cameras, shooting clear photos at night were still a problem.

The Variable aperture allows lightly more than a quota extra light into the camera so that photos are sharper and brighter in the dark.

This means more fun for escapades, at the club, at a fireplace during camping and for the wildest adventures, you wish to have in the darkest of the night.

Intelligent scan-4 ways to authenticate your identity

So, we all know S8 has 3 ways to verify identity. iris scanning, facial recognition, and the fingerprint sensor.

Samsung has introduced a 4th one which is one of the features on the S9-the intelligent scan.

There have been problems of the old phone S8 failing to authenticate identification especially when under the sun or at night.

Intelligent Scan works together with iris scan so that there never is a worry when you need to authenticate payment or any other important identification needs.

Are you wowed?

I bet you are and so I’m I. It’s time to contact a phone recycle company such as Rapid phone buyer to sell my old Samsung s7 edge and so should you. I might have missed the S8 but I am not going to let the wind blow the S9 away from me.

If you are not on a phone upgrade program, you might want to contact a phone recycling company so you can easily sell old phones.
