Is the Galaxy S9+ too big?

[Michaelw81]

I pick my S9 up tomorrow too, on the UK release date. I'm hoping the rumours are true of a free gel case coming in the box. I tried an S9+ in store, that was in a good case, and it was massive. It seemed just about usable with one hand, naked, but Anyone that carries a glass phone around naked is either too rich, or likes to live dangerously

New phone day!

 

[mrcrusha829]

Yes....in my opinion. I have the S8 and it is perfect.

don't forget to take a close-up shot... i cant wait for mine, damn!!! why do we have to wait until the 16th here in NA.

 

[anon(1733)]

Maybe we won't. Sprint people's now have tracking info. Best Buy just authorize my card. Could be a good sign.

Now this is what I consider a well thought over reply !

I thought it was too big until I got the Pixel! The width of the S8/9+ is much more hand-friendly.

The in-hand feel of the S8+ and S9+ are noticeably different from each other.

I have the s8+ and love the size. so much easier to read and do tasks.

 

[tomasz1984]

How about its weight? Isn't it too heavy? I have Samsung Galaxy S6, I wouldn't like anything heavier.

 

[Gayle Lynn]

I was surprised to read how much heavier the S9+ is over the S8+ and will be getting the S9 - due 19th. I love my Note 8 but that's a two hand phone I use only at home

I am coming from only iPhone 6 and just placed a preorder for the Galaxy S9+. I chose the S9+ because it's still a narrow phone overall, so the larger screen seems like a necessity to enhance video watching experience.

I am, however, concerned about the size and weight of the device. Does anyone ever find that the S8+ to be too big? The S9+ is actually going to be heavier than the S8+ too.

Of course not! Says the note 8 user lol.

 

[ibmuhit]

It's big - undeniably true. But not 'TOO BIG'!!

 

[Oscar Maradiaga]

Let me drop end this with the iPhone 8 plus is huge physically and we the same as the iphoine 7 plus. The galaxy s9 plus is smaller then the note 8 and as someone who's going from the note 8 to the s9plus it's because the note 8 was taller but less ram for the s8plus so I thought ram would be better which it was. But the note 8 has it's problems. I love cameras on a phone and the s9 plus is a great camera. Drop Mic and think about it. Every phone upgrade is special latest specs and I've been a Samsung s line to note since the galaxy s 2 to the note 2 and thhe note 8 was pretty much the s8plus with a few a upgrades. Samsung has landed smartphone iPhone users are now

I received today the S9+, coming from a S8. I was concerned with size but it is not that big.

Being the S9+ wider it makes it actually nicer and easier to hold. I was finding the S8 too narrow.

 

[Morty2264]

I'm tired of big phones too, but will have to see both in person to make the final decision.

Yup, everything that seems to be new and available for purchase nowadays is huge... I'd like to see more phones coming in at 5.5" or smaller.

Would have loved that s9 Mini rumor from back in November to have been true!
