Samsung Galaxy S9 review: Everything is new but the look

Samsung's flagship phone series is the Galaxy S, released each Spring. Last year's model, on sale last April, had a striking new design though many of the features inside were only gently upgraded from previous models. Now, the Galaxy S9 is here, and it's done the reverse: a largely similar design on the outside that hides significant changes in hidden elements such as the camera. I've been using the S9 and S9 since they were first announced 12 days ago. Though the look has been left largely unchanged, this remains a handsome, assured design.
