I've had no problems with my S9+. I bought it in 2019, a year after its launch because I didn't feel like I was missing out at the time compared to when the Galaxy S10 series was the successor flagship. To this day, the phone still lasts as if it is brand new. Sure, I may not get any more software upgrades, but if the phone still does what I need it to do, then I am happy with it. I have no intention of upgrading unless it breaks down.
I'm using s9 plus since 2018 and I'm happy with it. The phone doesn't make any problems, even when I'm playing heavy games and its working really good. The only problem is the battery, bc mine is its old. So I think this phone is still good to use in 2022
@@adibkz9779 In heavy use mine lasts about 2-3 hours. But if you use it only for calls I think it can last at least one day with one charge. Depends on the battery condition. Sorry for the late respond
I felt this. I have an s9 and the only reason I've really considered getting a new phone is bc my screen's all fucked and the battery isn't what it used to be and it'd be just as much if not more to replace those thing If anyone's curious, my screen's cracked and I have a pretty shitty case of burn in bc I keep youtube open on my phone when I sleep as well as do a LOT of texting so you can see the impression of the apps I text in with the keyboard open and youtube and FB messanger up in the corner which is where they live while I text and such
I just got the s9+ and it is great,i hade the iphone 7+ and it is a big upgrade. The only bad thing about it is that it dont got the new updates for samsung
Is 2022 and i still use my S9. When the screen broke i bought a replacement screen from Amazon and i fixed it myself by watching a TH-cam video. The battery still works perfectly and still charges to 100% no problem. Im not planning on changing my S9 anytime soon plus i talked to a technician about my S9 and he told me that it should still work for about 10 years or so, so don't worry about getting a new phone, just keep taking good care of it and it won't disappoint you. Oh and I'm still using the Original charger. 👍✌ Forgot to mention that i still get Updates for the apps.
I'm still rocking the s9 in 2022. I've had it for a few years now. It hasn't let me down. I still enjoy using my smartphone. I don't plan to upgrade anytime soon.
@@kirstinvincent85 Same bro.... Just had mine refurbished in the shop after the screen broke a year ago. Best phone ever. Updates or not.... I'm going for another 5 years. People are insane thesedays. I remember a Nokia went for AGES. I still remember looking for the damn charger every month....
I am using this phone as a work phone, And if anybody is telling you it is too old do not listen to them. When I'm at home I have an s22 Ultra. But the s9 is absolutely great. Still very speedy. Does not lag. And it still has pretty up-to-date software. It is definitely a good phone
Had my galsxy s9 for 3 yesrs ,and abuse it all the time and works great no overheating only charge battery up to 94% and use device care daily waiting till it slows down to replsce it but hasnt hsppen yet
I did replace my battery this year, but had my S9+ since I bought it in June 2018, and it still rocks. Only looking at S22's since there are screaming deals
I just got one for christmas and tbh it isn't that bad, compared to my old phone which was samsung a10s, this one has more storage and can run types of apps that my old one couldn't, charging it up a few times a day doesn't bother me much at all seeing as i use a portable battery on the daily anyway, if you're on a budget and need something new i'd say its a good enough phone
I pulled mine out of storage. It runs fairly well for its age. Just wish it had Android 12 or an unlockable bootloader. Wanted to put LineageOS on mine but US Snapdragon versions can't do that.
Of course this phone is worth it.It beats the pants off the low and midrange devices available today.The screen colors and resolution is higher than today's expensive galaxies.Cost of this phone $189 versus $1000 for current galaxies. More money in my pocket for a flagship phone
Idk man, whenyou compare some of Samsung's A series to this phone... they kkkiiinnnddaaa win... both of my sisters have Samsung A71 and their cameras are better, their operating systems are better, the internals are just as good if not better and they're around the same price... biggest drawback really is the lack of wireless charging but I never use that on my s9. Also if your s9 is broken then you're kinda shit outta luck bc to get it fixed it's almost the cost of a new one! I know, I've looked bc I have a really noticable case of burn in as well as a cracked display. If I didnt have those issues I'd probs wouldnt be thinking of upgrading for the next year to 2 years I love this phone so much
I've had the S9 since 2018. I use the wireless charging in my car and at home. I need it to be waterproof and it is. I don't want to downgrade to the S22 and get a 1080p screen, lose microsd and headphone jack. Sure I use wireless earphones but I also used wired. Listening to wired earphones through a USB C adapter sounds terrible compared to a device with a dedicated headphone jack
watching this on my samsung s9 i bought last 2018. almost the perfect phone for me, the only reason why i don't upgrade is the newer galaxies don't have headphone jack. and my only problem on this phone is the battery.
i got mine two years ago, second hand from amazon at a great price... and its still awesome ! granted, i don't do any office work, emails or online shopping with it, i do that on laptop.... but for FB, insta, youtube, camera and video.... works great for me.
The s9 is way better than the a03s or a13, a12 etc. It's compact too but not as much as it looks like sitting next to another phone. The display is ridiculously great! There are a lot of people that consider the s9 one of the best phones ever made and its definitely a beauty!! Phone is gorgeous 😍. It's stuck on one ui 2 5 but that's not so bad. The only real difference is chat bubbles, pallets, notification permissions and a couple other things. Phone is about 100 dollars and that's very much worth it!
As long as you're not a heavy user (meaning you play a bunch of heavy games and content creation) this is definitely still worth it. I personally wouldn't buy it but if I was given it to use it this year I wouldn't say no. My Dad is still happy using it since release (he even downgraded from an s20 fe which I use now)

it's a good smartphone but the problem is that it will remain frozen on Android 10 and will no longer have big updates. as for the photo and video part, many mid-range smartphones also show well for some, even much better.
What are the implications of it not having any more software upgrades? Will apps still be able to be used properly? (Instagram, etc) or could they stop working unless upgraded? (having then to get a new phone)
Apps are supported from android 8 and up certain apps require you to have the updated hardware depending what you choose to do with your phone but general social media consumption is supported as low as android 8 and up :) games included and for video/movie content :)
Had it since 2018 and It's been a awesome phone. I must dropped it least 30x never even messed up except at end video player doesn't perform as well as it once did. But it still will make a good video just hold it still and review first. I enjoyed it but you are correct about the battery life. I had too many screenshots too that needed to be deleted. It was 64 g edition. Viewing the web is better than most smaller phones. It lasted me until 2022. But I decided to go with a more modern larger screen like Ultra 22.
If it had android updates…it would be totally worth it but as always android makers gives shorty updates to their phones. And yet apple still updating their smartphone from 2015
but s9 has iris scanner and a great design with no fucking holes, s10e has only a slightly better processor which isn't noticable and an ultra-wide which is very rarely used.
@@devilkazumi578 But the chin is not in the screen, like put 2 phones side by side in the dark, the chin will disappear, but the hole punch will still look ugly
Amazing device apart from the freaking battery 🔋, not that the newer ones are much better but yes the S9 series were probably the best Samsung galaxy series so far, and if they had bigger battery capacity as it is its only downside then they whould be the best to me at least.
that's because the phone is 4 years old and the battery is degraded, though I agree with you, but when it released the battery was great. 22 plus is gonna have the same issue in time.

Something is seriously wrong if a flagship phone (and i'm talking all brands) isnt worth buying when its not even 5 years old.
