They feature Samsung's most advanced smartphone camera, and come with a Dual Aperture (F1.5 - F2.4, on rear camera wide angle lens only), in order to adjust to different lighting conditions. In addition, the Galaxy S9 and S9+ capture up to 12 versions of the same photo to create an optimal image with high contrast, and less noise and grain.

In addition, the Galaxy S9 and S9+'s Super Slow-mo captures footage at 960 frames per second - so a video that lasts for 0.2 seconds can be slowed down to six seconds. And with automatic Motion Detection, it's easy to capture even the quickest moments, as Super Slow-mo will start recording the instant there's movement in the frame. With AR Emoji, users can turn a 2D selfie into a dynamic 3D avatar and choose from preloaded characters or create one that looks just like them. The personalized AR Emojis are also automatically turned into 18 animated GIFs, which can be sent and shared via any app that supports the format.

Built with deep learning technology, Bixby adds some smart functions to the camera, including instant translation of text from one language to another, ability to recognize food and overlay approximate calorie count, and information about nearby landmarks and places. With Bixby, users can even identify products they are looking at, and purchase them from a list of retailers.

The Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ also feature powerful stereo speakers tuned by AKG and the brightest Super AMOLED Infinity Display on a Galaxy device (default resolution is Full HD+ and can be changed to Quad HD+ (WQHD+) in Settings)..

Both the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ support the new SmartThings app. Through the app, users can monitor and control their compatible connected Samsung and non-Samsung devices.
