uh-huh new glasses so it's been a little while now I know I understand since my last Galaxy S 9 video when it first came out I did preliminary impressions type of video I had pre-release units so I couldn't even hold on to those I had to send those ones back I realized man I haven't extensively used the s9 yet or in this case the s9 plus I'm not really doing my job here as painful as it may be for me today I'm gonna switch over from the pixel to XL like a warm blanket to the s9 plus I picked this up today I decided while I was over there to pick up the fast charger the wireless fast charger as well Samsung they really do the wireless charging best what do they say ten minute charging wirelessly oh my goodness that's exciting on its own okay so what did I get I got the 64 gigabyte titanium gray no contract I just picked it up bingo maybe in this case it means I'm gonna be a little bit more critical because I put my money where my mouth was I did or I'm doing that actively okay the unboxing experience you've probably seen this at this point last time around I actually chose to switch to the s8 rather than the Plus version this time around I'm like bigger battery the camera set up the unit right here titanium gray on the back probably put some kind of case on this new camera setup moved the fingerprint scanner which was my number one pet peeve on the previous version type C headphone jack which they kept that's important to me peel that off no notch City USB connector here in order to transfer files from your previous device fast charge power brick this is something I was kind of excited about AKG headphones now that's a nice little bump that's a nice little bonus there look you're aware alright this is sort of the flagship to beat or at least it has been for a long time price-wise 839 not quite $1000 everyone's always gonna want to have a status symbol look I got 800 I get 800 dollars you see that's mine but I think for the mass market the real innovation is somewhere down the food chain a little bit in that mid-range where you're getting like 90% of the experience of this maybe even 95 in some cases for almost half the cost I am glad that Samsung didn't jump all the way to a thousand bucks unlike some other players in the marketplace not going to name any names sometimes you like to bring one for your teacher if you're trying to you know up the grades in school I'm not new glasses so Samsung what is so magical about the galaxy line of devices other than the fact that then other than the fact then other than other than that they spend boatloads of money telling you about what's special their marketing it's still it's penetrating the cultural mindset in fact many people they just correlate galaxy with Android and vice versa you know we're talking about OLED the best in the biz it's still a Samsung display so you might be surprised to know Samsung is supplying even so even to Apple so for those of you in the comments that are like iPhone for life bro there's a relationship between these top level brands in many cases that device that you love so much it has pieces and components from many different players and that's good that's good for the tech bits very comfy as well if you've ever used I mean you hear the tone already what's different here an upgraded camera system you got some super slo-mo I had the lighter
