    Samsung is holding an event in the Indian capital of New Delhi tomorrow, and the company has sent us an invite that doesn't say what it is going to launch. The invite does confirm that we will see the launch of a new smartphone, and Samsung is likely to announce the Galaxy On series, which went official in China late last month.

    The Galaxy On lineup has been making multiple appearances online in recent weeks, with the Galaxy On5 and Galaxy On7 the two smartphones that will lead the lineup's debut. Both are budget smartphones with specifications similar to existing devices in Samsung's repertoire, and the event should give us an answer to the question we've been repeatedly asking: Why exactly does the Galaxy On series exist?
