Samsung Galaxy Xcover 5 clears FCC; Specs detailed by GeekBench


Samsung’s Galaxy Xcover 4 was released way back in March 2017, while Samsung’s line of the smartphone has changed a lot since the last year, seems that the South Korean firm still thinks that Xcover series needs a sequel. The new handset is reportedly the Galaxy Xcover 5 and has just cleared FCC.

A Samsung smartphone with model number SM-G398FN/DS, likely Galaxy Xcover 5, has acquired FCC certification recently. Which hints that the device may be close to launch. The listing also reveals that the handset will ship with a 10.78 Wh battery at 3.85 Volts, which in other words means a 2,800 mAh unit. That’s not big for today’s standards, and also, it’s the same capacity present in the 2017′ Galaxy Xcover 4.
