Samsung adds Sunrise Gold Edition to its Galaxy S9+ Series

Expanding its Make-for-India commitment, Samsung India has introduced a new colour edition of its Galaxy S9+ smartphone, the Sunrise Gold and the availability of a unified mobile to TV convergence solution through the SmartThings app.

Available in the 128GB memory variant, the Sunrise Gold edition of Galaxy S9+ is Samsung’s first device to feature a satin gloss finish which wraps the smartphone in an elegant glow and glimmer.

Samsung has also launched a TV Control widget, which offers a one-of-its-kind unified convergence solution between mobiles and televisions. When the user is in the vicinity of a television, the TV Control widget will automatically show up on their phone which gets enabled through Smart Things app and allows a two-way screen mirroring and sound mirroring.

With the “View Screen” mode in the widget, consumers can carry their television entertainment as they move across rooms by using the “TV to device” option. Consumers can also enjoy mobile games on a big screen by mirroring their mobile screen on to their television using the “Device to TV” option.

The TV Control widget also has a “Play Sound” mode which allows consumers to stream and share music from their mobile with others around by using the television as a Bluetooth speaker using the “Device to TV” option. Reverse sound mirroring using the “TV to device” option turns social entertainment to personal entertainment. So, consumers can listen to TV sound on mobile earphones at night without disturbing others.

Aditya Babbar, General Manager, Samsung India, said, “Our consumers are looking to express their style and personality through technology and colour plays a big part in that personalization. The Sunrise Gold edition of Galaxy S9+ extends the colour offerings of Galaxy S9+ with vibrant styles that embrace a modern and classic feel. In our endeavour to bring meaningful innovation for our consumers as part of our Make-for-India initiative, we are also delighted to introduce a one-of-its-kind unified convergence solution between mobiles and television.”

Samsung Galaxy S9+ is also available in Midnight Black, Coral Blue, and Lilac Purple. The Galaxy S9 and S9+ are equipped with a Dual aperture lens which adapts like the human eye to ambient lighting conditions. The lens switches from an F2.4 aperture in bright light to a large F1.5 aperture in low light. The camera also comes with 960fps Super slow-motion capture, AR Emoji and Bixby Intelligence. The smartphones also offer premium sound experiences with stereo speakers tuned by AKG and support Dolby Atmos, giving an immersive 360-degree sound effect.
