Samsung’s latest smartphones, which launched in China on Thursday, look a lot like Apple’s latest flagship iPhones. We all know Apple has sued Samsung numerous times but that clearly hasn’t stopped Samsung from unveiling yet another pair of Apple-aping handsets with the China-exclusive Samsung Galaxy C5 and C7.
Samsung’s new C-range comes in two sizes, 5.2-inch for the C5 and 5.7-inch for the C7, each with a Super AMOLED full HD (1080p) display, a metal unibody, 4GB RAM, 32GB or 64GB storage (expandable to 128GB via MicroSD), fingerprint sensor, 16 MP (primary) and 8 MP (secondary) f/1.9 cameras.The larger C7 has a 2.0GHz octa-core Snapdragon 625 chipset with Adreno 506 GPU, making it slightly faster than the C5’s 1.5GHz octa-core Snapdragon 617 chipset with Adreno 405 GPU.
The Galaxy C5 is currently priced at ¥2,199 (approx. N66,500), while the larger C7 costs ¥2,599 RMB (approx. N78,608), and will be available in colours as Pink Gold, Gold, Gray, and Silver.
Both phones, which come pre-installed with Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, can be viewed in more detail at Samsung’s Chinese website.
