Samsung takes the fight to Xiaomi's Redmi Note 10 with its new Galaxy M32
Aside from a high-refresh-rate display, the Galaxy M32 isn't really an "upgrade" over last year's Galaxy M31.
- Galaxy M32 is the latest addition to Samsung's Galaxy value-focused M series.
- The phone features a 90Hz Super AMOLED display and a massive 6,000mAh battery.
- It will go on sale in India from June 28 for a starting price of 14,999 ($203).
Samsung has launched a new Galaxy M series budget phone in India to challenge the best cheap Android phones from Xiaomi, Realme, and Motorola. The new Galaxy M32 is a follow-up to last year's Galaxy M31.
The latest budget Android phone from Samsung comes with a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display featuring FHD+ resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a U-shaped notch housing the 20MP selfie camera. Samsung claims the panel can achieve a peak brightness of 800 nits in High Brightness Mode, which is automatically activated for surroundings that are 20,000 lux or higher. Unlike the Galaxy M31 and M31s, which feature an in-house developed Exynos 9611 chipset, the Galaxy M32 is powered by MediaTek's gaming-focused Helio G85 chipset.
On the back of the phone is a quad-camera system featuring a 64MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, a 5MP macro lens, and a 5MP depth sensor. The Galaxy M32 also includes a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and an impressive 6000mAh battery with 25W fast charging. The phone runs Android 11 out of the box with Samsung's One UI 3.1 on top.
Samsung's Galaxy M32 will be offered in two configurations in India: 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB. The 64GB version will be available for 14,999 ($203), while the 128GB version will cost 16,999 ($230). Both variants of the phone are slated to go on sale in the country from June 28 via Amazon.in.
Samsung Galaxy M31s
The Galaxy M31s is one of Samsung's most impressive budget Android phones, offering fantastic battery life and a quad-camera system with a 64MP primary sensor. It also supports 25W fast charging, just like Samsung's flagship Galaxy S21 series phones.
