Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy A9, its latest phone, in an event held in China on Wednesday. The high-end smartphone is humongous, sporting a 6-inch display, which should be almost as big, if not bigger than most people's heads.

The new A9 device has the obligatory Super AMOLED display technology set in a 2.5D curved glass. It features a 13 MP rear camera, an 8 MP selfie shooter and a fingerprint scanner. It is powered by a octacore Snapdragon 65 processor, GB of RAM and GB internal storage space, Sam Mobile reported. The LTE-capable phone will ship with the latest Android 5.1.1 Lollipop or the Samsung's Marshmallow update once it finally rolls out. A9 also boasts a massive 4,000 mAh battery, an impressive achievement for a device that is 7.4 mm thin. Nonetheless, it trounces big-sized phones in the market such as the Nexus 6P, iPhone 6S Plus and even the Galaxy Note 5, Engadget noted.

Like the rest of the recently announced Samsung Galaxy A series such as the A7 and the A5, the A9 has a glass and metal construction, a departure from the all glass chassis of Samsung flagship devices. Samsung has not disclosed the pricing for the A9, but it could be inexpensive if a report by 9to5Google is to be believed. Fans will also be disappointed to know that it is only available in China later this month. There is no word yet when the Alpha devices will hit other markets such as the U.S. or whether it will be made available at all.
