Samsung Galaxy C9 release date, specs, news: Device ready to release on Oct. 21

A new supposed teaser pegs the launch of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy C9 tomorrow.

According to the image teaser, the Samsung Galaxy C9 will launch on Oct. 21. While it looks to be a rushed launch, observers are already expecting the iteration to debut soon. The Samsung Galaxy C9 has been previously seen on benchmark tests, leading to rumors of its imminent launch. Just recently, the device passed certification with China-based agency TENAA, so the late-week announcement is already anticipated.

Meanwhile, although a debut date was already confirmed, it remains to be seen when fans can expect the new iteration to be available in the market. In addition, it is unclear is Samsung will decide to offer the new Galaxy C9 globally. It is expected that the Oct. 21 launch will focus on China, as the rest of the Galaxy C-series were also previously launched China-exclusive. However, there is still a chance that the upcoming iteration will make it as a global launch. Samsung is known to only offer timed exclusivity for some China-bound devices. The South Korea-based tech giant already did this with the Galaxy A-series handsets.

With the Oct. 21 launch, fans will not have to wait long to check out the confirmed specs and features of the new Galaxy C-series iteration. According to previously rumored specs list and supposed benchmark scores, the Samsung Galaxy C9 will be a true phablet, featuring a massive 6.0-inch AMOLED display with full HD resolution. Under the hood, the new handset will reportedly run on an octa-core Snapdragon 652 processor, paired with an above-average 6 GB of RAM. It will have 64 GB of native storage, which is expandable to 128 GB via microSD. Speculations also suggest that the new iteration will be a selfie device since both its main back camera and the front shooter will feature 16-MP setups.
