The first smartphone with four rear cameras

Impressive quad-cam setup ; Large, bright, colorful display

No wireless charging ; Runs the older Android Oreo

The Samsung Galaxy A9 is a good looking, feature packed smartphone with standout camera spec.

Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) review

One of the first phones with five cameras on board and, several months after the announcement, still the only one with four on the back - it's the Samsung...

Excellent display all around.

Really disappointing image quality, particularly for a phone that's advertised for its camera prowess.

Let's put it this way - if you're after the bragging rights for having the world's only quad-rear-cam phone, well, the Galaxy A9 (2018) is the rather obvious choice. But if you are after taking nice pictures with your phone regardless of the number of...

Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) Smartphone Review

Connect four? The Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018)'s unique selling point is certainly its back camera with a grand total of four lenses. Nevertheless, the mid-range smartphone surprised us in other disciplines in our tests, keeping pace with other Samsung S...

Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) Review

Samsung's new mid-ranger has four cameras, but can it compete with the OnePluses and Pocophones of the world?

Good-looking AMOLED screen ; Above-average battery life ; Plentiful on-board storage ; Dual SIM phone with a microSD card support

Overpriced ; Camera quality is SHOCKINGLY bad ; Old software, no word about updates ; Processor is much slower than that of rivals in the price range ; No 4G connectivity in the US

Quad camera does not live up to the hype. ; Selfie camera doesn't perform that well either. ; Considerably underpowered for its price.
