Recently, Samsung Galaxy C9 was certified in the U.S by the FCC. Now reports suggest, TENAA (China's regulatory agency) has also joined the league of certifying the Galaxy C9 handset.

With this, TENAA has also released much information regarding the specs of the smartphone.

The Samsung Galaxy C9 (SM-C9000) will feature a 6-inch AMOLED display. The device will run on Snapdragon 652 chipset along with octa-core 2GHz CPU and the Adreno 510 GPU. The smartphone offers 6GB RAM along with 64GB of internal memory. On the camera front, the phone sports 16MP front camera and rear camera. The device is available in just one colour i.e. Gold.

For this C9, it appears Samsung is wasting no time when it comes to expanding its new "C" family of devices. What initially started as mostly a China-exclusive new branch, with the Galaxy C5and C7 has since transformed into an odd slightly superior contender to the "A" series.

We already know the top-end Galaxy C9 is in the works. It was spotted entering India. as well as on GeekBench. Hence, we already have a pretty good idea of what hardware to expect.

As for looks, judging by the almost identical nature of the C5 and C7, it can only be assumed another simple scale-up job. Today, the Galaxy C9 (SM-C9000) made a quick stop over at TENAA, which among other things, provided a few shots of the handset for visual confirmation.

As expected, it shares design traits with the rest of its family. According to the enclosed specs, it is, indeed, a little bigger than the C7 with its 6-inch, FullHD, Super AMOLED display. This is an important point to make, since the aforementioned Zauba tracking listing from a few days ago did also mention a 5.7-inch one. Taking TENAA into consideration, it is believed it is safe to say that 6 inches are confirmed.
