Samsung Galaxy M21: Price in India, Review, Specifications - Everything You Need

Samsung has already released its flagship Galaxy 20 series last month and it is still a long way away from the Galaxy Note 20 arrival. Now, the brand will most likely focus on its budget Galaxy M series and mid-range Galaxy A series. While the latter will reportedly welcome up to four new members in the near future, the former might soon get a new member called Samsung Galaxy M21. 

The handset has already bagged Bluetooth certification and passed through the benchmarking platform Geekbench. Now, the handset is tipped to carry the same specifications as the Samsung Galaxy M30s that launched last year, according to 91Mobiles. 

The source of this news is leak Ishan Agarwal. He claimed that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy M21 will have a lot of similarities to the Galaxy M30s in terms of specifications. They include 6,000mAh battery, 48MP triple rear camera setup, and Exynos 9611 octa-core chipset. The handset is also said to be pre-installed with Android 10-based One UI 2.0.

If Samsung will indeed go for the same specs on the Galaxy M21 as the Galaxy M30s, the price of the Galaxy M21 should be significantly lower. In addition, the handset might also come in different memory configurations as well. To recall, the Galaxy M30s was released in September in India in two models - 4GB RAM + 64GB storage and 6GB RAM + 128GB storage. However, the upcoming phone could be available in variants with 3 / 4GB RAM and 32/64GB storage, just like its predecessor. 

Apart from the Samsung Galaxy M21, Ishan also suggested that two more Galaxy M smartphones are in the works, Galaxy M01 & Galaxy M01s. They should be positioned in the entry-level segment just like the Galaxy A01.
