After launching the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, Samsung is now focusing all of its attention on launching more smartphones in its mid-range series. Leaked photos of the two upcoming devices in the C series have been surfacing at a frequent rate, thus pointing to the fact that an official launch is near.

About a week ago, photos of the Galaxy C5 surfaced online, showing a slim metallic body for the C series model. Today, more pictures made their way to Weibo, clearly showing a clearer image of the device, while confirming the model by a text on the display.

Samsung seems to prefer using metallic bodies on its mid-range series, as the design is also present in A series phones as well and we can expect to see it throughout the whole C series models. Images clearly show that the Galaxy C5 will come with a dual LED flash camera.

Rumors on the specs suggest that the Galaxy C5 will be carrying a Snapdragon 617 octa-core processor with 4GB RAM. The display might be 5.2 inch Full HD with 1080p resolution, either LCD or AMOLED. The resolution will be higher than that of the Galaxy J2 released last year.

The C series might debut with two devices

Last month, Samsung Galaxy C7 showed up in benchmark tests which indicated to a larger screen display compared to the C5, exactly 5.5 inches with touchscreen capacity, supporting a resolution of 1080p. It will pack a 64-bit 2GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor with Adreno 506 graphics processing unit.

Regarding the storage memory, it is rumored that the C7 will come with 32GB internal memory, but there are no details on the storage available on the Galaxy C5. Still, the two devices will most likely come with Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 out of the box.

Samsung might be preparing to launch the two devices at the same time, but there’s absolutely no information on the markets in which they will be available.
