Samsung SM-G955U1 Galaxy S8+ LTE-A (Samsung Dream 2)

About Samsung Galaxy S8+

The Samsung Galaxy S8+ feels compact yet expansive in the hand, measuring 73.4 mm wide, 159.5 mm tall and just 8.1 mm thick while weighing a modest 173 grams. Its front is dominated by a 6.22‑inch AM‑OLED panel that delivers vivid colours and deep blacks, with a sharp 1440 x 2880 pixel resolution that makes images and text look crisp and detailed.

Inside, the device is equipped with 6 GiB of RAM to keep apps running smoothly, powered by a 3500 mAh battery that aims to last through a typical day of use. It ships with a Korean‑language version of Android, and the handset supports a single SIM card, keeping connectivity straightforward.

This variant

The SM‑G955U1 bumps the screen’s vertical resolution to 1440×2960 while keeping the same panel technology, and it ships with Google Android 7.0 Nougat instead of the Korean‑language Android found on the base model. Its memory is also reduced to 4 GiB of RAM.

Compared with the other listed S8+ models—most of which are TD‑LTE or WiMAX devices tailored for Japan, Korea or Canada—this U1 variant is an LTE‑Advanced unit aimed at the US market, lacking the dual‑SIM configurations and regional network tweaks seen in the FD, J, D, N, W, 8, U and F models.
