Samsung unveils the all new Galaxy C5 and Galaxy C7 series of smartphones

Samsung has come up with two new mid-rangers, dubbed as the Galaxy C5 and C7. The C series is a new brand by Samsung, with the Galaxy C5 being smaller in comparison to the C7. Both the devices feature all-metal chassis and decent specifications. Samsung unveiled the latest C-series smartphones at an event held in China.

The Galaxy C5 will retail at $330 (approximately Rs. 22,097) while the Galaxy C7 will cost you $396 (approximately Rs. 26,449). However, Samsung has not yet revealed whether it will launch these devices in other regions outside of China. But there are fair chances for a global launch by next month.

The Galaxy C5 and C7 both run Android 6.0 Marshmallow, and are integrated with a fingerprint scanner. Both the devices will be available in Gold, Pink-gold, Silver, and Grey color options. The Galaxy C7 is a premium version of the C5 — but both the devices feature the same storage capacity, camera, and RAM. To simplify, the Galaxy C7 comes with a slightly faster chipset and a bigger screen and battery. Going by the outlook, the design of both the smartphone looks a lot like iPhone 6s.

    HTC 10 vs Samsung Galaxy S7 / Edge vs LG G5

    In the Android world, we follow a familiar release cycle when it comes to flagship smartphones, mostly centered around the two major trade shows, MWC and IFA. This year, Samsung and LG were first out of the gate with their respective flagship offerings being showcased back during MWC 2016, and while HTC was a little late to the party, we now have all three high-end offerings to choose from. Each device brings something unique to the table to help distinguish themselves from the other, and we've covered them extensively here at Android Authority with comprehensive reviews, in-depth comparisons, and feature focus articles. Which is the best of the lot? That is what we aim to find out, as we take a closer look at the HTC 10 vs Samsung Galaxy S7 / Galaxy S7 Edge vs LG G5 in this unique triple-threat versus!

    The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

    This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m
