The hugely popular Galaxy M-series just
got its newest member - say hello to the M31s. It brings a 6.5-inch Infinity-O
sAMOLED panel - a first for the M-series as well as 25W charging support (with
the required charger in the box) to top up the massive 6,000 mAh battery. The
phone also carries a Gradient design with black and blue shades and features a
side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
Around the back, we find the 64-megapixel
primary Sony IMX682 shooter alongside a 12MP ultrawide snapper and two 5MP
modules - one for macro shots and another for depth data. Samsung has also
brought over its Single Take mode which captures up to 10 photos and videos
with one press of the shutter button. The selfie camera comes in at 32MP just
like on the Galaxy M31.
The M31s also runs on the Exynos 9611
chipset and comes with 6GB or 8GB RAM and 128GB of expandable storage. The
6,000 mAh battery inside can power other gadgets thanks to the reverse charging
support which effectively turns the M31s into a power bank. On the software
side, we have OneUI core 2.1 on top of Android 10.
The Galaxy M31s goes on sale starting
August 6. The6/128GB trim will retail for INR 20,499 (US$ 273) while the 8/128GB
model will go for INR 22,499 (US$ 300).
