Samsung has finally announced the Pro versions of last year’s Galaxy On5 and Galaxy On7 in India. While the new “Pro” variants are arguably just the 2016 updates to the 2015 originals, the new versions are now called the Galaxy On5 Pro and the Galaxy On7 Pro (we’ll just have to wait until October to see if we also get a On5 (2016) and On7 (2016)). Both faux-leather backed devices are exclusive to Amazon India and run Android 6.0 Marshmallow at launch.
