Samsung recently launched its Galaxy A9 Pro but only in China, withholding any information regarding an international release for the Android phablet.

Sans any official announcement of future plans from the company, our reports closely followed the rumors circling around the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro's alleged international release.

The first discovery involved the phablet's listing in Zauba, an Indian export and import tracking website. Rumors around this time suggested that a Polish company was supposedly accepting Galaxy A9 Pro preorders, indicating the phablet's future expansion in Europe.

The second discovery found an approved Wi-Fi Certification listing for the Android device from Wi-Fi Alliance. This actually adds more grounds to the alleged international release as it can be inferred from this legal document that Samsung itself is working on the project. A certified approval also means a more legitimized proof.

Yet how did these rumors find a connection between the listings, as well as establish the fact that the listed device is a different version from the one exclusively released in China?

The answer lies in the third recent discovery: a distinguishable and specified version number for the supposed Galaxy A9 Pro International.

Listed as SM-A910F in previous leaks, there was no available point of comparison to prove that the discovered documents pointed to the international variant until now.

The approved Bluetooth Certification for Samsung's SM-A910F can be differentiated from previous versions listed in the document: SM-A9100 and SM-A9000, both published on Feb. 26 and March 23, respectively. The Galaxy A9 Pro's exclusive release back in April places the two listed dates before its launch in China.

The SM-A910F's approved Bluetooth Certification, on the other hand, was recently published on June 2, thereby pointing to a future release of another Galaxy A9 Pro.

Reports have also seen a trend in smartphone releases where a company pushes a product's immediate launch after all certification requirements have been met, thereby leading us to the fact that the international variant of the Galaxy A9 Pro may be released sooner than expected.

Still, the company has not confirmed any of these claims and only leaves such discoveries as speculations at best. It is important to note, too, that Samsung has not denied these rumors either and we can simply hope for the best scenario: that we finally get an international release of Samsung's latest flagship device soon.

Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro features upgrades from its relative counterpart, specifically 4 GB RAM, 16-megapixel rear camera and the much hyped 5,000 mAh battery capacity.
