Samsung Galaxy F flaunts its 'Prime' metallic back in latest leak

Samsung Galaxy F is believed to be the real name of the rumoured Galaxy S5 "Prime", and we might have a slightly clearer idea of what the mythical premium beast might look like.

Pictures that allegedly show off a pre-production model have been sent over to Phone Arena showing off a brushed metallic backplate. According to the anonymous tipster, the handset is a tad smaller than the Galaxy S5 with thinner bezels.

He also says the phone packs a Snapdragon 801 inside, but he adds that this will be upgraded to an 805 come launch, aligning with what we've already heard.

Heavy metal

Before its reveal there was a lot of talk about the Samsung Galaxy S5 having a QHD, which is why we're willing to believe these Prime rumours have credibility.

Furthermore, we can see a big fat Samsung Galaxy F across the screen in one of the images.

As for the back, Samsung may not actually go full metal but choose to take the LG path with a metallic-aping plastic design instead.

The phone's also rumoured to be rocking out with 3GB of RAM and a 16MP rear camera with OIS

Of course, as ever, don't assume these new pictures are legitimate. But we already have an idea in our heads of what a Prime might look like - and this isn't far off.
