Two new top-end Samsung devices have surfaced on Geekbench listing. According to the listing, the Samsung SM-G9600 has SDM840 SoC, which could be Snapdragon 840 and the Samsung SM-G9650 has SDM845, which could be Snapdragon 845 that are yet to be announced.

Looking at the model numbers, these listings hint that the phones could be Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+, but it could be too early. It also shows these flagship Mobile Platforms as quad-core SoCs running at  1.78 GHz per core and the scores are very less compared to Snapdragon 835, so it is believe.

What’s believable from these benchmark listings are 4GB of RAM and Android 7.1.2, but these could change to 6GB RAM and Android 8.0 in the final version next year.

Qualcomm accidentally revealed back in May that Snapdragon 845 will be the successor of the currently flagship – Snapdragon 835, which will likely be used in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note8 smartphone in select regions such as U.S. while most other regions will get the Samsung Exynos 9 Series 8895 SoC.
