There's no water resistance nor full Samsung Pay support, but you do get Bixby Voice and Dolby Atmos support (over wired and Bluetooth audio). There's a 24-megapixel front camera up front for selfies and a rear-facing fingerprint sensor. The A9 also comes in striking new gradient colors. And all of those features come at a premium, as expected. The recommended retail Galaxy A9 price is set at €599 for the base model with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage in Europe.
As for a release date, the Galaxy A9 will be releasing in select markets sometime in November. Concrete dates and individual pricing information for various countries will be revealed by the local Samsung arm. If the Galaxy A7 (2018) is anything to go by, having access to an ultra-wide camera and a zoom lens on a single phone should make the Galaxy A9 quite attractive. Whether the phone's other aspects match up to the imaging experience is something we will tell you in our Galaxy A9 review in the coming weeks.
