Reason for Sale

Not needed anymore

Selling this on behalf of my cousin. This was bought broken from Olx last year to replace Android TV experience in my cousins TV.

Condition:
The phone`s screen and back are gone. Screen is almost unusable. Sensors / Calling / Mics / Speakers are working fine. When accessing front cam it shows some dark spots but the photos come out fine. Back camera also works fine. Camera samples and dark spots pic are attached below.

The phone works best as android desktop with Samsung`s DEX feature for casual browsing. DEX experience is superficially similar to Windows. Galaxy S9 DEX supports 4K and Ultrawide screens. It plays 4K 60fps videos without any overheating or lag. It can also be used as local DLNA server. Prime video works in DEX but its limited to 720p. The best and my favorite use case is using Parsec / Moonlight in DEX for game streaming. My cousin was able to play Red dead 2 in my PC in Hyderabad from my hometown using Parsec (Depends on broadband speed too).

I didnt find anything colorful for pics in indoor light. Thats why I used Oral B. I will be happy to do any other tests as needed. For DEX, one needs a USB C to HDMI hub.

Sale includes only phone and nothing else.

So that Oral B set is not free with the phone ?

Best sale post I have seen in a long time. Running 4k 60 fps video and RDR2 on such a broken up phone using DEX is truly another level of tech enthusiast. GLWS !

no wait .. this is a Youtube Stats for Nerds pic to show that it runs 4k 60fps video without dropping frames.

Parsec fps depends on graphics card in host machine and client`s decoding ( s9+ ) capabilities and broadband speed. back then i had gtx 1060, i managed settings in RDR2 for 45-50fps and leave some room for Parsec`s encoding. so he used to get 45-50fps. but there will be a minor lag which wont be noticeable in RDR2 type games. Parsec is not for games where lag matters like PUBG.

if possible, i`ll try in my other cousin`s TV at Hyderabad and post pics of Parsec fps.

Did you try getting the screen repaired?

Did you try getting the screen repaired?

no .. the purpose of buying this phone was to use Dex for casual browsing and gaming on TV instead of Android TV Box or Android TV OS which come with max just 2gb ram and weak processors. it serves great for that purpose.
