A new/unknown smartphone from Samsung has surfaced
online following the release of the Galaxy J7 duo and amidst the Galaxy Note 9
leaks and rumors. An unknown Samsung Galaxy handset has passed through TENAA,
China’s version of the FCC, leaving us with a few basic details.
According to the listing, the unknown device has its
model number as “SM-G8850” and it is said to have a compact design. While
images of the device are yet to be uploaded, the TENAA listing reveals that the
SM-G8850 measures 147.7×68.7×8.4(mm), and it is said to have an overall screen
size of 5.8-inches, while the actual display is 5.6-inches.
The TENAA results also reveal that the Samsung
SM-G8850 will be a dual SIM device, will run Android out of the box, and will be
powered by a 3000mAh battery. Considering the model number of the device, some
speculate that the new “SM-G8850” could be a compact variant of either the
Galaxy S8 or the S9 mini, the latter is, however, more likely knowing that a
device rumored to be the Galaxy S9 with the model number Samsung SM-8750 had
appeared on Geekbench a few weeks back.
The further details and images are currently not
available, but that should happen in few a hours time, and with its listening
TENAA, then its official announcement shouldn’t be far.
