              Scrolling through the comments on here, it's pretty obvious that 99% of gadget blog commenters never read anything they comment on. They just see the brand name in a headline and that triggers the troll nerve.

                I think it will be Dolby Atmos for Headphones, like on Windows.

                      Smasung is nothing else but a company which takes a lot of money from you and give you nothing for that. Apart from low quality devices with Samsung sticker on it.
                      No dolby atmos, no 120 HZ screens or flat screen (curved screen is slippery as F...), no good batteries and many else, How typical.

                          So what you gonna do even if it let's say "support" it? ATMOS requires 7.1 scheme with additional presence speakers to give its effect

                                Its for the possibility, when you play video or music from phone to 5.1Dolby speakers, f.E if you have a wall-projector ffor movies. If you have dolby on phone its a very nice option.

                                  Phylyp, 08 Jan 2018 They're probably saving it for the S9/+ as a differentiator. My magic ball tells me you are wrong AGAIN.

                                      its pointless anyway we would be lucky to have stereo speakers let alone Dolby Atoms lol

                                        I remember having dolby atmos on Lenovo K3 Note. It's not as special as people make it out to be. Download a random equalizer and you have the same thing.
