The Samsung handset with model number SM-G390F received its WiFi certification a while ago, and then it surfaced on Geekbench. Since it recently arrived at FCC, its launch should be close now.
After spending some time in the rumor mill, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4 received its WiFi certification at the end of January. Two weeks ago, the SM-G390F handset was spotted on Geekbench. Now, although Samsung still has to unveil it, this handset surfaces at FCC.
Unfortunately, there is nothing new to discover in the FCC entry, only that the Samsung SM-G390F is powered by a 1,500 mAh battery, so it should use a low-power processor to provide a reasonable autonomy. The Geekbench listing revealed a 14 nm Exynos 7570 chipset and 2 GB RAM, as well as Android 7.0 Nougat. The screen size is unknown yet, but the maximum resolution supported by the Exynos 7570 is 1,280X720 pixels, so we expect a 5-inch display or smaller.
Sadly, the Galaxy Xcover 4 did not show up at MWC 2017 as we anticipated. However, since it arrived at FCC, Samsung will probably unveil it by the end of this month.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
