News & Reviews:   Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro specs

Today, Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (Digi) has launched its new mobile plans for businesses, Digi Business Postpaid, which provides corporate customers with the freedom to choose a plan that best suits their day-to-day business communications.

So last week, we receive a tip from Mr. Anonymous and speculated that the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro could be arriving in Malaysia last Friday but nothing really happened (it was just a rumour after all). But fret not, we manage to get some leaked images of the device from Mr. Anonymous, so without further ado, check them out below!

At the end of last month, we reported that the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (SM-A910F) got a WiFi Alliance's certification which means that it will release an international version soon. How soon? Might be sooner than you think, since it just got a Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) certification hinting a launch.

Back in March, the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro was revealed in China for 3599 Yuan (around RM2188) and it has now been granted certification by WiFi Alliance to a Samsung SM-A910F, which is believed to be an international version of the pre-existing (SM-A9100) model. To recap the specifications, it features:

The Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro has officially made it, with an official listing in China for 3599 RMB (RM2188). The largest of the Samsung Galaxy A (2016) series, it packs in a 6-inch fHD display but retains the same look and feel as the other Galaxy A (2016) smartphones like the Galaxy A5 (2016) andGalaxy A7 (2016). No Malaysia release dates or pricing details but it should reach local third-party sellers before arriving officially in Malaysia.

• octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor
• 4GB RAM
• 32GB storage + microSD
• 6-inch display (fHD, 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution)
• 16MP rear camera + 8MP front camera
• 5000 mAh battery
• Android 6.0.1 + Samsung TouchWiz UX

It's not so long ago that the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro's benchmark score from AnTuTu appeared on Weibo last week, we got some idea on the specifications too and just recently FCC just certified the device (so did TENAA) so we can expect to see the device coming soon perhaps before mid-year or so.

You might think Samsung will lay low for awhile after announcing the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge at MWC 2016 last week, well looks like they aren't backing down yet as we just got an AnTuTu benchmark score from Weibo about the Galaxy A9 Pro. 

Fresh after the launch of the recent Samsung Galaxy A (2016) or Galaxy A6 series here in Malaysia, rumours from Sam Mobile are circulating about a possible Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro smartphone. While there is a Galaxy A9 already (just not officially available in Malaysia yet), the Galaxy A9 Pro will supposedly offer enhanced features. These include a 2K or 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution display, a faster octa-core Snapdragon 652 processor and Android 6.0 Marshmallow. There are no Malaysia release dates or pricing details yet but it is expected to cost more than the $490 (RM2030) price tag that the Galaxy A9 is going for.
