The Samsung Galaxy M2 is starting to look better and
better – specs details by AnTuTu reveal a 1,080 x 2,340px screen. That’s better
than the J-series phones, which have 720p displays. The Exynos 7885 chipset is
better than most J phones too.
The 3GB of RAM and 32GB storage combo was confirmed,
the M2 is also supposed to have a 64GB version (it wouldn’t surprise us if that
one has more RAM). The rest is as expected – we’re referring to Android 8.1
Oreo. Samsung is just now starting to update flagships to Pie, these
entry-level phones will have to wait.
We say “entry-level” as the M-series is thought to
take over from Galaxy On, the online-exclusive versions of J-phones. Meanwhile,
the J-series will merge into the A-series. That’s a roundabout way of saying
that the M-series will feature entry-level phones.
But even if it targets the mid-range, the “2” in
Galaxy M2 suggests a phone with more modest specs. It seems like Samsung is
gearing up for a fight with Xiaomi and the like.
