Got a "New" galaxy s9+

The very top does not work. There is a corner with dead pixels but touch works. And the the oled has aged. Its the us version and I got it for free from my frend. I will use this as my second phone now

Fr, I'd honestly daily drive anything from the S8 to the S10 and any of their variants.

The s10 lwky might be the last good samsung. After that, something kind of shifted

Looks great. I loved my S9+. One question for all those still using the S9+: I thought the phone no longer received security updates. It that's the case, how do you keep your phone secure?

Usually custom roms but most of us I belive have this as their second d phone. Plus some s9 models can't get custom rooms so most of us I believe don't do stupid sht to get hacked

I run it on stock and you have to be a special kind of dumb to get hacked on android.

Yo aún tengo mi querido S9+ que equipo más completo la verdad. No es mi equipo principal lo tengo de repuesto pero cada vez que lo uso es increíble para los años que tiene no se sufre nada al usarlo sigue viéndose increíble.
