Samsung Galaxy Xcover 5 specs reveal a modest upgrade

Samsung is working on a new rugged smartphone in the Galaxy Xcover series. Some of the phone's specs, including the processor and the operating system version, were leaked a few days ago. Now, the rest of the features and specifications of the Galaxy Xcover 5 have been leaked, revealing a modest upgrade over the Galaxy Xcover 4s.

Leakster Sudhandhu has revealed the specs of the Galaxy Xcover 5 (SM-G525F) on Twitter. It is being reported that the upcoming smartphone sports a 5.3-inch display with HD+ resolution (1,600×900 pixels), a 5MP selfie camera, and a 16MP rear-facing camera. An earlier leak had revealed that the Galaxy Xcover 5 will come equipped with the Exynos 850 processor, which is actually a downgrade compared to the Galaxy Xcover 4s' Exynos 7885 chipset.

The phone will be launched with Android 11 (with One UI 3.x) onboard. The upcoming rugged smartphone features 4GB RAM, 64GB internal storage, and a 3,000mAh battery. The phone supports 15W fast charging via its USB Type-C port. It could be launched in just one color (black) and feature LTE connectivity. You can also expect it to feature IP68 certification for dust and water resistance and an MIL-STD-810G compliant design for shock resistance.
