Launched alongside the Samsung Galaxy S9 on March 16th, 2018, the Galaxy S9 Plus offers more screen space, more RAM (6GB in total) and a superior camera than its smaller counterpart. It’s available in two capacities — the 64GB version has an RRP of $1,349, while the much larger 256GB model has an RRP of $1,499. It’s available in Lilac Purple, Midnight Black and Coral Blue colour options. Like the Galaxy S9, not a lot has changed in terms of its design when compared to last year’s Galaxy S8 range. Keen-eyed folks will notice the S9 Plus’ improved fingerprint scanner placement on the phone’s rear (it now sits below the camera, rather than right next to it). Elsewhere, the phone still boasts style for days, with its beautiful ‘Infinity Display’ providing a real edge-to-edge screen experience (the inclusion of Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and back of the phone make it feel especially comfortable in the hand). It’s got a 6.2-inch Super AMOLED display at 1,440 x 2,960 pixels (529ppi) with…

Samsung’s latest flagship phone debuted in Australia on Friday, March 16th, 2018 and is available in two capacities: 64GB, which has an RRP of $1,199, and 256GB, with a recommended retail price of $1,349. It’s available in three colours which Samsung’s calling Midnight Black, Coral Blue, Lilac Purple. In terms of looks, the handset isn’t hugely different from its Galaxy S8 forebear — and in fact, it’d take a keen eye to tell the two apart at a glance. The key giveaway is that the Galaxy S9’s camera and fingerprint sensor setup on the back is slightly different, with the latter having been moved from beside the camera to below it. That's a positive changed which makes the sensor far easier to find by touch alone, and should result in less fingerprints all over the camera lens. For those who’d like less "hands-on” security, there’s also an iris sensor that lets you opt for face unlocking instead. The Australian market gets the Samsung Exynos-powered version of the phone (the same…

While the iPhone X was announced at the same time as the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, many people won’t be interested in the substantially higher price you’ll pay for Apple’s tenth-year anniversary model or for the plus-sized equivalent. Instead, you get yourself an Apple iPhone 8 for only $1,079 for the 64GB model and $1,329 for the 256GB model with the extra storage. The whole lineup, including the iPhone 8, was announced on September 12, 2017 and became available only 10 days late on September 22. Much of what was great about Apple’s iPhone 7 smartphone has been brought over the iPhone 8 but there’s also some pretty major improvements. As far as the design is concerned, much of the iPhone 7’s sleek, rounded chassis has returned with the iPhone 8, and while they might seem identical at first glance, there is one prominent difference. The iPhone 8 has incorporated an all-glass design, ditching the aluminium rear panel and replacing it with a super tough, super stylish Gorilla…

Offering most of the same functionality of the considerably more expensive iPhone X, the Apple iPhone 8 Plus is a fantastic option for those who want to stay within the iOS ecosystem and save some money at the same time. Starting at the RRP of $1,229 for the 64GB model, you can also score a larger 256GB version at the RRP of $1,479. The iPhone 8 Plus is available in Silver, Gold and Space Grey as standard, though a stylish Product Red edition is also on sale for those who want to stand out. Released on September 22, 2017, the iPhone 8 Plus features a similar design to the previous generation of iPhone products, with a slim, rounded body, only this time with glass on both the front and back of the handset. The move from aluminium to glass on the back of the phone allows the iPhone 8 Plus to charge wirelessly using Qi technology. While it’s true that an all-glass design does make phones more fragile, Apple has opted for sturdy Gorilla Glass on the iPhone 8 Plus, meaning it should be…

Samsung Galaxy Note 9   Boasting a number of important upgrades over last year's Note 8, the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is the ideal handset for users who truly mean business. Premium in every regard, Samsung's latest flagship has doubled its internal storage in comparison to its predecessor, with the an entry level model (priced at $1,499) that boasts 128GB of space, and a high-end version (priced at $1,799) that packs a staggering 512GB of storage in its sleek frame. And, when you consider that both phones allow for expandable storage via microSD, that larger model is actually capable of storing over 1TB of data — a major accomplishment in the realm of smartphones. It's storage space isn't the only thing that's increased in size, either — the Note 9 now has a 4,000mah battery, which is the largest that the company has ever included into one of its smartphones, meaning you can expect exceptionally long battery life from the device. Its Super AMOLED display, which has received praise…
