The Galaxy S9 counts with a little bit better camera than Samsung Galaxy S6, because although it has a way less mega pixels resolution back camera and a lower (4K) video quality, it also counts with a bigger camera sensor taking more light and vivid colors and a much larger aperture to take better images and video in poorly lited situations.
