The report was written by Evan "@evleaks" Blass, the notorious leaker that now writes for VentureBeat, who said he talked to "someone briefed on the company's plans" and explains that Galaxy S9 and S9+ are Codenamed Star 1 and Star 2 and go by model numbers SM-G960 and SM-G965.

The Galaxy S9 and S9+ will feature a 5.8-inch and 6.2-inch curved Super AMOLED panels, just like their predecessors. The difference though is the Galaxy S9 and S9+ will not be like the near-identical nature of the S8 and S8+ which shared everything but the display size. Instead, the S9+ will be featuring more RAM (6GB vs 4GB) and also a second rear camera just like the Note 8.

Keep in mind, Samsung still plan to have a scheduled March event to serve as their phone's official launch.
