Samsung Galaxy M31s
Samsung definitely struck gold with the launch of its Galaxy A series and Galaxy M series of smartphones in 2019 and the brand has not looked back since, launching follow ups to the mobiles in short durations. After the launch of the Samsung Galaxy M30, we saw the launch of the Samsung Galaxy M30s. This was quickly followed by the Samsung Galaxy M31, and now we have our hands on the Samsung Galaxy M31s. The interesting thing is that all these launches have occurred within the span of a single year, as the Galaxy M30 made its debut in March 2019, along with all the other popular Galaxy M series phones. Well, we definitely don’t see any people complaining about the frequent launches because people are eager to buy Samsung’s budget offerings. Back to the all new Samsung Galaxy M31s, the phone features a 6.4 inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The phone packs Samsung’s very own Exynos 9611 chipset, so you’re looking at decent chipset performance but nothing mind blowing. The phone packs 6GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard memory, with the option of adding up to 512GB via the memory card slot. The Galaxy M31s features a decent quad camera rig on the back consisting of a 64MP + 8MP + 5MP + 5MP configuration of cameras. The 32MP shooter embedded in the display notch takes care of your selfies and video calling needs. The battery specs are stunning as you have a cell with a capacity of 6000mAh inside the Samsung Galaxy M31s as well as support for 18W fast charging. Some of the popular Samsung mobile phones include the Samsung Galaxy A31, Samsung Z Flip, the Samsung Galaxy M12s, and the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G.
