The next phone to launch in Samsung's Galaxy C series of mid-range phones looks set to be the Galaxy C8, which will be the third phone from the Korean giant to feature dual rear cameras. Today, press images of the C8 have leaked online, and as many of you will notice, it looks exactly like the recently launched Galaxy J7+. You wouldn't be wrong, as the J7+ is expected to be launched as the Galaxy C8 in the Chinese market (the C8 would feature model number SM-C7100, while the J7+ is SM-J710.
What remains to be seen, however, is what specs the C8 will carry. The C series phones are supposed to be mid-range devices, and it's rare for Samsung to use the same design for two devices from different price segments while changing the overall specs (unless these devices are spin-offs of each other, like the Galaxy On phones that launch in markets like India and China). Of course, the specs could remain the same as well, given the J7+ does have improved hardware compared to the Galaxy J7 (2017). Hopefully, Samsung will change out the MediaTek chip inside the J7+ with a Snapdragon SoC, as the former isn't the best match for a Samsung smartphone.
As for the dual camera, we should see the same setup on the Galaxy C8 as the one on the J7+: a primary 13-megapixel f/1.7 sensor and a secondary 5-megapixel f/1.9 sensor, with support for the Live Focus mode that debuted on the Galaxy Note 8. A release date isn't known, although we could see the phone go official on September 22 going by the date on the lock screen in the images.
