The mid-range Galaxy C7 Pro is already available for purchase in China, alongside other members of the series like the Galaxy C5 Pro and Galaxy C9 Pro. However, it appears that Samsung plans to introduce the Galaxy C7 Pro in more countries.
After Hong Kong and, maybe, India, Samsung Galaxy C7 Pro could make the leap to the United States in the coming weeks. The smartphone has been recently spotted at the country's Federal Communications Commission (FCC) where it's been granted approval so that Samsung can make it available in the U.S.
Unfortunately, it's hard to tell whether or not U.S. carriers will pick this one up. Samsung plans to launch the Galaxy J3 and Galaxy J7 (2017) in the country very soon, and both phones will be released at multiple network operators.
Nonetheless, the Galaxy C7 Pro is an even better smartphone specs-wise. The phone's core is comprised of a powerful octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, 4GB RAM and 64GB expandable storage.
Also, Samsung's mid-range handset sports a large 5.7-inch Super AMOLED display with full HD (1080p) resolution. A 3,300 mAh battery is included as well, along with 16-megapixel cameras on both the front and back. The only downside seems to be the fact that it ships with Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow on board.
Although the Galaxy C7 Pro costs $420 in China, Samsung might offer it for a slightly higher price in the U.S., but no more than $500 outright.
