A new leak claims that Samsung intends to launch the Galaxy S9 earlier than expected and that some of its features will be inspired by AppleX.
Although we still don't have enough details on the subject, Samsung calls the features borrowed from Apple "tricks" that are going to offer new functionality to the device.
So let's see what Samsung intends to borrow.
- The advanced facial recognition system, Face ID, although the term "copy" created a great deal of controversy between fans of the two companies.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 already comes with a facial recognition system that allows for easy unlocking of the device, but the iPhone X is the one that uses 3D sensing cameras for advanced functionality and potentially more secure authentication. Compared to Samsung, Apple completely removed the fingerprint sensor from the iPhone X, while the Galaxy S8 still has it on the back of the device.
The Galaxy S9 comes with a dual-camera system, likely with a layout inspired by the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 but faster due to the new processor and more RAM.
Many are claiming that Samsung will indeed release its new flagship earlier than expected, and although this announcement plays out in every new release from the company, this time it is likely to be a reality given the high demand for the iPhone X. Whatever we do, everyone is now waiting for Samsung's answer to Apple's much-discussed anniversary model.
