The Galaxy M42 5G support page is now live on Samsung’s India website. The device is listed with the model number as SM-M426B/DS. This is the same model, which had recently gained the required BIS certification. Apart from the BIS certification, the Galaxy M42 5G was even spotted on Wi-Fi Alliance and Bluetooth SIG certifications a few weeks back.

In terms of imaging, the A42 sports a quad-camera setup that consists of a 48MP primary camera. The other three sensors the device incorporates at the rear include an 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 5MP depth sensor, and a 5MP macro camera. For selfies and video-calling, the A42 5G features a 20MP camera. The whole package is fueled by a 5000mAh battery that offers 15W charging support.
