Phones with dual camera arrangements are increasingly common, and even having three rear cameras is no longer uncharted territory—Samsung offers one in the Galaxy A7. Kicking things up a notch, Samsung's new Galaxy A9 is the first smartphone in the world to launch with four rear cameras, underscoring the emphasis on taking photos above all else. The Galaxy A9 is not a flagship phone, though it's no slouch either. It wields a 6.3-inch Full HD+ (2220x1080) Super AMOLED display powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor, which is an octa-core part with four high power cores clocked at 2.2GHz and four lower battery saving cores clocked at 1.8GHz. There are two models to choose from, one...

Given that rumors have been swirling for months about a quadruple-camera Galaxy device, the timing appears to be right for such an introduction. Unfortunately, the invitation to the event, which will be streamed live via Samsung.com, doesn't provide any...

Have you ever wondered at what point a smartphone officially doubles as a tablet? The answer is 6 inches. We're declaring it official because hey, why not? Also, that's the size of the display on Samsung's new Galaxy A9 handset unveiled in China yesterday. To put that into perspective, Amazon sells a 6-inch version of its Fire HD tablet. Size matters, but so does resolution and unfortunately the Galaxy A9's massive display is only 1920x1080 (Full HD 1080p). That's certainly serviceable, though not particularly exciting, given all that physical real estate. On the bright side (literally), it's a Super AMOLED panel with 2.5D curved glass, so even though the resolution is pretty pedestrian for its...
