Yes. Samsung officially offered 64GB, 128GB and 256GB configurations in various markets.
4. Does the 128GB S9+ have 6GB RAM?
Yes. The Galaxy S9+ has 6GB RAM, and Samsung’s exact UK 128GB model specification confirms 6GB RAM + 128GB storage.
5. What does “DS” mean?
It denotes the Dual-SIM model. Samsung identifies the SM-G965F/DS as Dual-SIM.
6. Does it use two physical SIMs?
Yes, but the second position is part of a hybrid tray.
7. Can I use two SIM cards and a microSD card simultaneously?
No. The configuration is SIM 1 + SIM 2 OR microSD.
8. Does it support eSIM?

No. The Galaxy S9+ is a 4G LTE smartphone.
10. Is it an international model?
Yes. SM-G965F/DS is an international/global Dual-SIM variant rather than the U.S. SM-G965U/U1 model.
Processor & performance
11. Which processor should this exact SM-G965F/DS use?
The global SM-G965F family uses Samsung Exynos 9810. Samsung’s S9 support documentation confirms that international markets used the Exynos 9810, while the Snapdragon 845 was used in other regions.
12. Should the page list Snapdragon 845 for this exact SKU?
No. Your current page lists both Exynos and Snapdragon versions, but an exact SM-G965F/DS product page should show the Exynos configuration only.
13. What manufacturing process does Exynos 9810 use?
10nm FinFET.
14. How many CPU cores does it have?
Eight.
15. What CPU speeds does Samsung give for the actual S9+ implementation?
Samsung’s exact UK S9+ model specification lists 2.7GHz + 1.7GHz CPU speeds.
16. Why does Samsung’s standalone Exynos 9810 page say up to 2.9GHz?
The chipset itself supports higher reference frequencies, but the S9+ device implementation is specified by Samsung at 2.7GHz + 1.7GHz. For the phone listing, use the device-specific values.
17. What CPU architecture does the chipset use?
Samsung specifies four custom performance CPU cores plus four Cortex-A55 efficiency cores for Exynos 9810.
18. What GPU does Exynos 9810 use?
ARM Mali-G72 MP18. Samsung Semiconductor officially lists that GPU.
19. Is Mali-G72 MP18 therefore appropriate on this page?
Yes, provided the page is clearly describing the Exynos SM-G965F/DS rather than mixing it with Snapdragon models.
20. What cellular modem capability does Exynos 9810 provide?
Samsung lists LTE Cat.18, with theoretical downlink up to 1.2Gbps using 6-carrier aggregation under supported conditions.
Display
21. How large is the Galaxy S9+ display?
6.2 inches measured as the full rectangle, or approximately 6.1 inches accounting for rounded corners.
22. What display technology does it use?
Dual-edge Super AMOLED.
23. Is the display curved?
Yes. Samsung describes it as a curved dual-edge / Infinity Display.
24. What is the resolution?
2960 × 1440 Quad HD+.
25. What is the pixel density?
Approximately 529 PPI.
26. What is the aspect ratio?
18.5:9.
27. What color depth does Samsung specify?
16 million colors.
28. Does it have Always On Display?
Yes. Samsung supports Always On Display on the S9+.
29. Is the ~84.2% screen-to-body ratio on MyWorldPhone an official Samsung number?
Samsung’s exact product specification does not publish that ratio. Your table’s ~84.2% is third-party/calculated data.
30. Should you keep the 84.2% figure?
You can keep it only if labeled as approximately/calculated. For a manufacturer-only specification table, I would remove it.
Display protection & body
31. What are the dimensions?
158.1 × 73.8 × 8.5mm.
32. What does it weigh?
189g.
33. What protection rating does it have?
IP68 dust and water resistance.
34. Should the page call it “waterproof”?
No. Use water resistant, not waterproof.
35. What is the commonly published Samsung IP68 test condition?
Samsung launched the S9+ with IP68 protection; its Galaxy documentation uses controlled fresh-water test conditions. The safer retail wording is simply IP68 Dust & Water Resistant with a resistance-can-decline caveat.
36. Does it use glass on the front and back?
Yes. The design uses glass front/back construction with a metal frame.
37. What display glass generation is commonly specified?
The S9+ uses Corning Gorilla Glass 5 in Samsung-era device documentation.
38. Is the fingerprint sensor in the screen?
No. It is rear-mounted below the cameras. Samsung specifically moved the fingerprint reader beneath the rear camera for easier access.
39. Does it have a physical Home button?
No. It uses an on-screen Home area with a pressure sensor.
40. Should your table call that “3D Touch”?
I would remove that phrase. “Pressure-sensitive virtual Home button area” is clearer and avoids confusion with Apple’s 3D Touch branding.
Rear cameras

Two.
42. What is the primary rear camera?
A 12MP Super Speed Dual Pixel autofocus camera with OIS and F1.5/F2.4 Dual Aperture.
43. What does Dual Aperture mean?
The main lens can physically switch between F1.5 and F2.4 depending on lighting or camera mode.

51. What is the selfie-camera resolution?
8MP.
52. What is the selfie-camera aperture?
F1.7.
53. Does the selfie camera autofocus?
Yes. This is worth highlighting because Samsung officially lists autofocus on the front camera.
54. Does the selfie camera have OIS?
No.
55. Does the rear camera have an LED flash?
Yes.
56. Does it support AR Emoji?
Yes.
57. Does it support Bixby Vision?

Yes. Samsung documents DisplayPort over USB-C, with compatible HDMI adapters supporting output up to 4K60.
Memory & storage
71. How much RAM does this exact SKU have?
6GB.
72. How much internal storage?
128GB.
73. How much user-accessible storage did Samsung list on the exact 128GB UK model?
Samsung listed approximately 109.4GB available before user content, with exact usable capacity varying with software.
74. Does it support microSD?
Yes.
75. What maximum microSD capacity should MyWorldPhone advertise?
Samsung’s current exact 128GB Hybrid-SIM S9+ specification lists microSD up to 512GB.
76. Why do Samsung’s original launch documents say 400GB?
That was the officially supported maximum at launch in 2018. Samsung’s later exact-model product specification lists up to 512GB.
77. Should your current “up to 1TB” claim remain?
I would change it. For manufacturer-grounded copy, use up to 512GB because that is what Samsung’s exact current model page lists.
78. Is the microSD slot dedicated?
No. On the Dual-SIM model it shares the second SIM position.
79. Can the customer use SIM 1 + microSD?
Yes.
80. Can the customer use SIM 1 + SIM 2?
Yes.
Network & connectivity
81. Does this exact SM-G965F/DS support CDMA?
The exact Samsung SM-G965F/DS specification lists GSM, WCDMA and LTE—not CDMA/EVDO.
82. Why does MyWorldPhone currently list CDMA and EVDO?
Because the table combines other S9+ variants, including U.S. models, into the same specification. That should be removed from this exact G965F/DS listing.
83. What 2G bands does the exact model support?
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900.
84. What 3G UMTS bands does it support?
B1 / B2 / B4 / B5 / B8.
85. What LTE FDD bands does Samsung list?
B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B12, B13, B17, B18, B19, B20, B25, B26, B28, B32 and B66.
86. What LTE TDD bands are listed?
B38, B39, B40 and B41.
87. Does this exact model have LTE Band 71?
Samsung’s exact G965F/DS specification does not list B71.
88. Does unlocked status guarantee U.S. carrier activation?
No. Activation depends on supported LTE bands, IMEI eligibility, carrier certification, VoLTE/IMS provisioning and current network policy.
89. What Wi-Fi does it support?
802.11 a/b/g/n/ac on 2.4GHz and 5GHz, with VHT80, MU-MIMO and 1024-QAM.
90. Does it support Wi-Fi 6?
No. It predates Wi-Fi 6 and supports Wi-Fi 5 / 802.11ac.

Stereo speakers tuned by AKG with Dolby Atmos.
97. What is the battery capacity?
3500mAh, non-removable.

99. Does it support wireless charging?
Yes. The S9+ supports fast wireless charging and WPC/Qi/PMA-compatible wireless charging.
100. What software should the listing state?
The S9+ launched on Android 8 Oreo. Samsung later provided Android 10 documentation for the SM-G965F family, so your current “upgradable to Android 9” wording is outdated. Installed software can vary depending on region, previous updates and device history.
