Samsung Galaxy Note 9 has now received an official support page on some country-specific websites. The latest development shows the upcoming Galaxy Note handset with model number SM-N960U. This is the same model that has recently been spotted on Geekbench. The benchmark listing of the smartphone confirmed the presence of a Snapdragon 845 SoC, though its global model is expected to come with an Exynos 9810 SoC.
As folks at Androidu.ro reported, the support page of the Galaxy Note 9 has emerged on Samsung's North Africa and South Africa websites. The page shows the handset under the SM-N960U model number, where the U at the end can safely be considered with a Snapdragon 845 SoC. It is safe to say, considering the historical records, that the Exynos-powered Galaxy Note 9 will come with a model number featuring "F" or "F / DS" at the end.
It is worth noting here that the official support page doesn't detail any specifications or features of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Nevertheless, the listing on the Geekbench site confirmed that the handset has a Snapdragon 845 SoC, coupled with 6GB of RAM, and runs Android 8.1 Oreo. It also suggested that the handset will perform in line with the Galaxy S9 by showing 2,190 single-core scores and 8,806 multi-core scores.
Some previous rumours claim that the Galaxy Note 9 will be launched on a date sooner than expected. Also, it is expected to come with the same 6.3-inch Super AMOLED display that had debuted on the Galaxy Note 8 last year. It was originally rumoured that the new Galaxy Note model will come with an under-display fingerprint sensor, though the company might not include the advanced hardware due to some technological issues.
