We’ve spotted two new Samsung smartphones — SM-J737U and SM-S757BL — which haven’t been announced yet. Both these smartphones have passed through Wi-Fi Alliance’s certification process. The SM-J737U appears to be a variant of the Galaxy J7 (2018), and could be released in the US on C Spire’s network. One of the variants of the same phone, the SM-J737T had received a certification from the FCC earlier this month.

The SM-S757BL appears to be a successor to the Galaxy J7 Sky Pro (SM-S737), which was launched in July 2018, and was a variant of the Galaxy J7 (2017) for the prepaid market. So, it is possible that the South Korean smartphone giant is planning to release it sometime in the next couple of months, following an yearly upgrade cycle.
