Yesterday we attended the presentation of the second generation of what Samsung has called infinity screen, a screen that barely shows us edges on both the upper and lower screens. On the sides, the Korean company offers us a curved look that offers us quite attractive aesthetics.
The aesthetic changes, as we could see yesterday, are practically nil. What does change is the interior, especially in the aspect of photography, in addition to obviously its processor and the amount of RAM, since this time it goes from 4 GB to 6 GB. Here we show you a comparison between the Galaxy S8 + and the Galaxy S9 +.
