The power button will be located on the right side with the Bixby button and volume rocker found on the right side. Furthermore, the camera and fingerprint scanner are conveniently placed at the back with the 3.5mm audio jack making a return at the bottom alongside the USB-C and the speaker.

As a result of the price of previous flagship devices, the Galaxy S9 is estimated to be within the range of $700–$820.
