The Samsung Galaxy C5 is 100% the same of what we already shared a couple of days. The display is a 5.2-inch 1080p FHD Super AMOLED and is paired with a new 16MP camera, the same sensor on the Galaxy A9 and better than the 13MP of Galaxy A5 2016. Inside is a 4GB RAM, 32/64GB storage, SD card support, and 2600mAh battery.

The processor is Snapdragon 617 octa-core chip with 1.5GHz quad CPU plus 1.2GHz quad CPU design. In fact, the SD617 doesn’t bring any big speed bump from the SD615 chip of the Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A7 2016.

With an ultra-thin body and all metal design, the Galaxy C5 resembles a lot to the iPhone 6s and previous HTC One flagships. There will be two primary variants that will become available, the gold and the rose gold.

Official launch and release in the Philippines are expected this June or July.
