Galaxy C9 features a new antenna design

We exclusively reported two months ago that Samsung is working on a new Galaxy C series device which will be called the Galaxy C9. We've spotted the handset on several benchmarking websites since and have an idea of its specifications. Samsung is yet to confirm when it's going to unveil the Galaxy C9 but the fact that it recently received its FCC certification goes to show that the handset might be launched in the near future. Samsung recently released a teaser for the Galaxy C9, we've come to know that it shows off a new antenna design for this phone.

Most metal unibody smartphones you see these days have similar antenna designs: straight lines on the back across the top and bottom. The Galaxy C9 is shaking things up a bit with a new antenna design that will be visible in three slim lines across the top and bottom. The evident advantage here is that these lines don't have a color separate from the shell itself so it's certainly pleasing to look at. As far as the specifications are concerned, the Galaxy C9 might be powered by a Snapdragon 652 Pro or Snapdragon 653 processor. It may very well be the first Samsung smartphone to feature 6GB RAM. A 16-megapixel camera has been rumored for the Galaxy C9 as well.
