So after spending a brief period with galaxy s9+ back to iPhone 8 Plus this time product red... spent extra 50 dollars in my country but considering the cause it’s totally well worth it..
back to s9+ experience: it is the best features packed droid to date and display is one the best available today .. this was my brief experience with an android phone after almost 5 years because I was into Apple eco system...
During this period I enjoyed s9plus a lot it was fun to have every feature in ur phone.. But it was Ui experience that left bad taste in my mouth again.
No gestures in apps like Instagram Facebook twitter etc was seems stupid after u used an iOS device .. further apps are no where near polished as App Store ... intelligent scan was cool at first but seems painfully slow after a while when u need quickly access to ur secure folder...
Last nail in the coffin the great grand battery on galaxy s9plus specifically and in android phones generally... I observed something different this time and came to conclusion about why does a 3500 mAH battery android phones provides bad battery endurance than an 2691 mah iPhone 8 Plus ...
if u use a galaxy s9 plus continuously it will go on and on till 8 hours straight use of games and all that heavy stuff but it’s the stand by drain that does not preserve battery in stand by as iPhones does which subsequently translates into 30 to 40 percent more battery at the end of a charge cycle...
I can easily go 1 and half day with IPhone 8 Plus battery while I usually had to charge my s9 plus near 7 or 8 pm at night with same usage and stand by time ..
My s9 plus used to drop 10 to 12 percent battery over night while iPhone 8 Plus does use 2 percent at best both phones WiFi Bluetooth lte switches turned on .. s9 plus had aod off at night
Things I like about s9 plus are display secure folder and customisation.
With that said I enjoyed my experience but being iOS user from a long time apps simply works for me. Once u r used to Apple eco system it’s hard to go back
