Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A3 (2017) press renders leak out

17comments

Earlier today, we learned that Samsung was getting ready to officially announce the Galaxy A 2017 series next week, on January 5. The new series will include three smartphones (at least for the beginning): Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017), and Galaxy A7 (2017).

We've already seen various renders and images showing these upcoming handsets, but now we have something better: leaked press renders presenting the fronts and rears of the Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A3 (2017). Most probably, these are the images that Samsung will be using to promote the new devices.

While they have similar designs, the Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A3 (2017) come in different sizes, as the A5 (model number SM-A520) sports a 5.2-inch 1080p display, while the A3 (model number SM-A320) has a 4.7-inch 720p screen.

The new Galaxy A5 is expected to be powered by an octa-core Exynox 7880 CPU, further featuring 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of expandable storage space, and a 3300 mAh battery. The new Galaxy A3 will be a bit more modest, possibly featuring an octa-core Exynos 7870 processor, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of expandable internal memory, and a 3000 mAh battery.

Yesterday, Samsung hinted at the fact that the Galaxy A 2017 family would be water-resistant, but it's not clear if this applies to all models in the new series.

Apparently, the Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A3 (2017) will be available in four color variants: black, gold, blue, and pink. The phones could go on sale beginning January, though, for now, we don't know if that's true for the US market. In any case, we'll find out more about the Galaxy A 2017 series next week. Stay tuned!
