Samsung has silently launched the Galaxy M12 in Vietnam. The phone borrows pretty much every feature from the Galaxy A12, except it has a larger 6,000mAh battery inside. The battery charges over the same 15W fast charger and USB-C port and has an estimated web browsing time of 24 hours on a single charge.
The front is highlighted by a 6.5-inch display which is a PLS LCD panel with 720p+ resolution. It has an Infinity-V notch at the top that makes room for an 8MP selfie camera. The phone promises a music listening time of up to 5 days on a single charge, which is unbelievable, but regardless it still has a 3.5mm headphone jack if you ever need it.
Get to the back and you see a 48MP main sensor that can record Full HD videos at 30fps, complemented by a well set of cameras including a 5MP ultrawide shooter with 123-degree FoV, and two 2MP macro and depth helper each.
There’s no word about the chipset on the Galaxy M12, though reports suggest that it’s an Exynos 850 chipset, which has 8x Cortex-A55 and Mali-G52 MP1 GPU.
But you get plethoras of memory variants to choose from, including 3GB/4GB/6GB of RAM and 32GB/64GB/128GB of onboard storage. The phone also brings a dedicated tray for microSD card storage.
Other features include support for 4G LTE, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, and a fingerprint scanner which is inside the power button on the side.
The Samsung Galaxy M12 is currently available in Vietnam in 32GB and 64GB models only and can be purchased through retail shops. There’s no word about its launch in Nepal — no price has been mentioned as well.
