It appears like Samsung is set to release the Galaxy On7 (2016). The South Korean technology giant is tight-lipped on the device but its launch seems imminent, as it has been cleared by a couple of telecom certification authority. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) has now certified the device, giving a clear hint that its release is not far off.
Samsung is expected to release the Galaxy On7 (2016) this month, or early next month. The device is now being certified by FCC, not long after the Chinese telecom equipment certification authority TENAA cleared it.
The South Korean company hasn’t revealed any detail about the Galaxy On7 (2016) but it is seen with a 5.5-inch display with 1,920×1,080 resolution, a 151.5×74.9×8.0 mm dimension, a 166.7 g weight, and a 3,300mAh battery on TENAA listing. A device with model of number SM-G610F, believed to be the Galaxy On7 (2016), is also seen with an Exynos 7870 processor, a 3GB RAM, and Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow operating system on Geekbench.
It won’t come as a surprise if the device comes in two variants, as the GFXBench listing has the device with a 4.8-inch HD display and 1,280×720 screen resolution, a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 octa-core processor, an Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, an Adreno 506 graphics engine, a 16GB internal memory and a 3GB RAM. The device is also expected to feature a 13MP main camera, and an 8MP front-snapper.
