Samsung hasn’t made huge announcements in the mobile space at CES 2015 (likely opting to save those for MWC 2015 instead), but it has separately announced a couple of mid-range phones overnight. Destined for the Indian market, Samsung has announced the Galaxy E5 and E7, which could be described as photo-focused devices on the fairly standard Galaxy phone formula.
This is packaged into a phone that’s 141.6 x 70.2 x 7.3mm, so surprisingly small and slender.
Software wise the E5 will be a standard Android 4.4 setup with TouchWiz. There’s no LTE on this model, which probably won’t impact in India too much, but it may if it’s sold elsewhere.
No pricing or availability has been announced yet, but these things always happen after the launch announcement, and down the track. We know that India is a launch market, but I’d be surprised if these devices don’t find their way into other markets at the lower end as well.
