Samsung's biggest phablet has gone official in India. The Galaxy A9 Pro (SM-A910F) was launched in China earlier and it packs a massive 5000 mAh battery in a metal and glass body.
There's a 6-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display here with 2.5D curved glass for protection. It runs on the powerful mid-range Snapdragon 652 octa-core chipset from Qualcomm with 4GB RAM and Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
On the camera front you have a 16MP rear unit with optical image stabilization and 8MP front facing camera for selfies. Just like other Samsung smartphones launched in the country, the Galaxy A9 Pro is also supports dual-SIM 4G LTE, dual-band WiFi, GPS and a fingerprint sensor embedded in the home button. If you were wondering, there is a separate microSD card slot here to expand the 32GB of inbuilt storage, so no hybrid business.
