Samsung Galaxy C9 Pro


Samsung has officially announced the Galaxy C9 Pro for China. This phone is the company's first to boast a whopping 6GB of RAM, which should be a top selling point in the spec-obsessed Chinese market. 

It doesn't hurt to confirm that it is indeed sporting Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 653 chipset, the successor to the pretty successful 652. The C9 Pro has a 6-inch 1080p touchscreen, 64GB of expandable storage, and a big 4,000 mAh battery.

Its 16 MP rear camera has f/1.9 aperture, phase detection autofocus and a dual-tone LED flash, while selfies are taken care of by another 16 MP sensor, also with f/1.9 aperture. The C9 Pro has dual-SIM functionality, 4G support, NFC, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS, 802.11n Wi-Fi, a 3.5mm headset jack, and it runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

Its dimensions are 162.9 x 80.7 x 6.9 mm, and it weighs 189 grams. It's already up for pre-order in China, in rose gold, from Samsung's online store, priced at CNY 3,199 (US$ 472 or € 435 at the moment). It will become available on November 11.
