Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Galaxy S9+ camera got the highest DxOMark result!

Galaxy S9+ camera got the highest DxOMark result!

DxOMark has given its final rating for the Galaxy S9+ camera and it is 99! So far, DxOMark has not given this result to any camera in smartphones. So the Pixel 2 and iPhone X cameras are no longer the best cameras in smartphones.

The tests performed by DxOMark are complete and every aspect of the camera is evaluated to finally create a final grade. So, among other things, colors, autofocus, noise (noise), flash, zoom, Bokeh…, etc. are evaluated separately.

Such a high result could have been expected since the camera is the main trump card of this new model from the Galaxy S series. Even during the speculation in the previous period, even based on the hints given to us by Samsung, we knew that the camera would be revolutionary. All expectations have been met and the camera is revolutionary because it has some features that have not been seen with smartphones so far.

Since this is not a review of the Galaxy S9 / + camera, I will not go into details but will only point out 2 features:

  • Variable aperture (f / 1.5 - f / 2.4)
  • Super slow-mo u 960 FPS (720p)
  • All specifications - HERE

Just to mention for those who are not instructed: Galaxy S9 and S9 + have the same primary cameras, the only difference is that S9 + has another "Telephoto" camera that serves as "optical zoom" (when zoomed in the software zooms it switches to that camera, so not true optical zoom).

As for the results, below is a picture from the DxOMark site:

Galaxy S9+ camera got the highest DxOMark result!

These are the items they highlighted:

  • Noise is very well controlled in all conditions
  • Pretty good details in terms of exterior and interior painting
  • Very fast and accurate autofocus
  • Strong and vivid colors in all situations
  • Excellent resolution when zoomed 4 times

So, after the Galaxy S9 + took first place in the table, this table now looks like this:

99 Galaxy S9+
98 Google Pixel 2
97 iPhone X
97 Huawei Mate 10 pro
94 iPhone 8 Plus

If you were wondering if these are x / 10 results, the answer is - no. Namely, the results can go over 100, but currently, the situation with smart devices is that they are very close to 100. If an even better camera appears, it can have a result of over 100, of course. DxOMark assigns this result according to some of its formulas and based on those bases. Here is the official explanation:

„The overall score is not a weighted sum of the sub-scores. It is a proprietary and confidential mapping of sub-scores into a combined score. The Overall score is also not capped at 100. That just happens to be where some of the best devices are currently.“ -DxOMark
