The much-rumoured Samsung Galaxy A9 smartphone, after going through a series of leaks in the past month, has finally made its way to the company's Iran website. The listing page gives details on its specifications and the launch date - December 1. Although the price has not been revealed, the 'price-range' section states the smartphone to be 'mid-range.'

It bears a 5.5-inch full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution Super Amoled display with pixel density of 401ppi. Under the hood, the handset packs an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 620 (MSM8976) processor with four Cortex-A72 cores clocked at 1.8GHz and four Cortex-A53 cores clokced at 1.4GHz, clubbed with 3GB RAM and Adreno 510.

Although the battery capacity is not mentioned in the page listing, it does say the battery to be a non-removable one. It is worth noting that the images on the page appear to be that of the Galaxy A8, and are possibly just placeholders. The listing on official website hints that Samsung might soon launch the smartphone officially. It must be noted however that with the use of the placeholder image, the listing may be updated in its entirety at some point.
