We’re eagerly awaiting the online #AGalaxyEvent scheduled for 5 p.m. Philippine time on October 11. Samsung could unveil its first smartphone with four cameras on the back, three weeks after launching the Galaxy A7 (2018) triple-rear-camera handset.

The phone will supposedly be called Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro, but could be renamed Samsung Galaxy A9s in other markets.
And if the latest leak is anything to go by, then we’ll be looking at the following cameras stacked vertically on the device’s back panel:
- 24-megapixel primary camera
- 8-megapixel wide-angle camera with a 120-angle field of view
- 10-megapixel zoom camera
- 5-megapixel zoom camera
We don’t know if the word “zoom” in “5-megapixel zoom camera” is just a typo. You see, besides the 10-megapixel zoom sensor, the Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018)’s photography system also consists of 24-megapixel, 8-megapixel, and 5-megapixel sensors. However, the latter is for depth sensing, so the 5-megapixel rear camera in the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro could have the same function. We’ll see.

The front of the smartphone, on the other hand, will supposedly get a 24-megapixel Sony IMX 576 sensor for selfies. Again, similar to the A7.
But unlike the 6-inch triple-rear-camera mobile, the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro will have a bigger Full HD+ Super AMOLED screen at 6.28 inches. The battery could be larger, too — rated at 3,720mAh instead of 3,300mAh. And inside is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor.
