Recent reports have revealed that Samsung is working on a rugged phone named the Galaxy Xcover 7. The leaked renders of the device have already appeared, and it has also been spotted on Geekbench. While the Xcover series has been available in other markets, like Europe, the South Korean brand hasn’t launched it in India. There is a possibility that the Xcover 7 could be Samsung’s first rugged phone for the Indian market.
Samsung Galaxy Xcover 7 India launch expected
As can be seen in the above X post, a Samsung device bearing the SM-G556B model number has been approved by the BIS authority of India. As per previous reports, this device is likely to be called the Galaxy Xcover 7 when it arrives on the market.
The Geekbench listing of the phone has revealed that the Galaxy Xcover 7 will be equipped with the Dimensity 6100 Plus chipset, 8 GB of RAM, and Android 14. The leaked renders of the device have revealed its ruggedized construction will feature a waterdrop notch display on the front, a single rear camera with dual LED flash, and an Xcover physical button on the side, which will allow users to launch a desired app or push-to-talk feature or use any other function.
The Galaxy Xcover 7 is said to be equipped with a user-replaceable rear panel like its predecessor. In addition, it will be a MIL-STD-810H-compliant and IP68-rated dustproof and water-resistant smartphone.
There is a possibility that the Galaxy Xcover 7 may bear some resemblance to the upcoming Galaxy A55, which has the SM-A556B model number. Reports have revealed that the A55 will feature the forthcoming Exynos 1480 chipset.
