They changed the animation of when you open apps. I read before that this type of animation was used before to hide the facts apps used to take long to open. I actually don't mind it but hope they have not gimped the performance somehow. You know to get you ready to upgrade...
I don't think I will upgrade for quite a few years yet as all the new phones offer nothing interesting to me. Waste of money.

Battery life isn't as good as before the update
That's pretty common after an update - Android will 're-learn' the usages etc over the course of a week or so.
Noticed an issue with taking photos in low light on the latest updated (Android 10) - it seems that the camera is taking a snap after the flash; so you just get a black screen. Though it's only with auto flash - on manual, it was fine.
Yeah I was going to post that the battery isn't that bad now things have settled down.
This was pretty helpful.
I enable the button removal and panicked when i could't go back and put it back again!
Another video, this one goes in a lot more depth. Samsung Dex is fun to play with.
Alright all,
I traded in my S9+ a few weeks back and have the cases left over.
Both Snakehive cases, worth around £20 each (I think that's around what I paid) and I'd like them to go to a good home as they're fantastic cases!
As you can see they've had a bit of wear and tear, but that wood case is the best case I've owned. It's protective and slim!

Been very happy with One UI 2 update. As long as the phone does not magically start to slow down, I recon I will keep it longer than I kept my previous phone which was a Note 3 that lasted me a little over 4 years. Had my S9+ now for 2 years and it still feels new and fresh.

Has anyone else had issues with the play store after the latest S9 update (April 2020 patch level)? After I did the OTA update last week, I can't install things like netflix anymore, and under the play protect it says this device is not certified.
I have a stock S9, not rooted, no unlocked bootloader or anything like that, so I'm not really sure what the issue is.

Over a gig in size with fixes and the June security updates, it took a good 10 minutes to install on my phone as well. I haven't been using my S9 very much as I got a P40, but I have decided to use the S9 this week as my main phone as I want to see if I really need the Google Play store and google notification system.
Got excited for a moment but seems a pretty minor features update but just big in size. Still on my s9 but contract is up next month.
Think I'll just switch to sim only for a while, it's still doing what I need which is what's app and browsing.

What are people upgrading to from their S9+?
My 24 month contract has just come to an end and I am struggling to decide what to upgrade to. The S20 Ultra seems the logical choice but I refuse to pay top money for a second rate Exynos processor. The Note 20 looks like it could be good but I really don't want to be spending £60+ a month. My max would be around £50 a month. I am tempted to get a Virgin Media 10GB SIM for £10 and just wait it out to see if anything better comes out.
My battery is definitely not as good as it once was & I'd like a better camera, mainly just fancy a new phone!

Not upgrading. Still plenty fast and the new phones offer nothing new that I want. Hopefully they start releasing something worth buying in the next couple of years.What are people upgrading to from their S9+?
