True story
Getting the "new" old Galaxy is more like getting a new girlfriend 
Mine has arrived too, a 3 ~ 4pm lunchbreak to meet the DPD driver, back at work now. All I've a chance to do is plug it in to charge up, was @ 68% out of the box. My Spigen cases have arrived too. Got my evenings tasks now of getting it sorted.

It is just an evolution of the S8 TBH. It is nice but nothing mind blowing.Not a single review yet! Cmon guys, hurry up and get your damn phones already

Nice jump from the Z5 for me.
I'm going from a Z5 compact with a broken microphone and battery that only lasts a few hours on a charge after only 1 year of use to the S9 also.

Got mine. Taking ages to restore the apps though 
The quality of it is fantastic. Been using an iPhone 6S for the last few months and I'm glad to be rid of it. Was using an S7 Edge previously but the screen broke

My Google Play won't update unless it is over Wi-Fi, can't seem to change this to mobile networks, any ideas?

Havent really had much of a play with mine, just installed a few apps and setup accounts etc, oddly finding the finger printer scanner hard to locate after getting used to the s8's placement 
intelligent scan unlock works really well, camera seems a nice upgrade not tried much in the way of testing performance of the cpu etc but it feels pretty snappy, pretty happy with the upgrade overall, waiting on some screen protectors and case to arrive tomorrow

It may be set to 'over WiFi only' from there. This is on an S8 so figure the s9 will be similar.

Well impressed with the speakers. Best I've heard on a phone.

My blue s9 turned up today. Lovely. 
Yes, as an S8 owner it doesn't seem to be enough of an upgrade to bother. Actually, I'd pay not to have the AR Emogis
If I was to lose or badly damage my S8 then I'd consider the S9 for sure. Not very keen on the Pixel phones and nothing else appeals. See what else comes out this year but can't see myself moving away from Samsung. Had the S8 nearly a year and has served me well. I'd be interested to know how the S9 plus compares to the S8 Note.
Having had a moto x style prior to the Samsung phone I've found the S8 speaker a little disappointing. Glad to hear the speakers are an improvement. Isn't S9 display supposed to be a bit brighter too?
Doesn't work for restoring apps sadly. I guess it's a restriction.
