Samsung to launch Galaxy M21 with 48MP camera on March 16

New Delhi: Samsung is readying for the launch of its next Galaxy M smartphone in India, Galaxy M21, on March 16.

The highlight of Galaxy M31 will be its triple rear camera system that is likely to come with a 48MP main sensor, industry sources told reporters on Saturday.

Galaxy M21 is likely to have a 20MP selfie camera and a 6.4-inch Super Amoled display in addition to a massive 6,000mAh battery.

The device is tipped to be powered by Exynos 9611 Octa Core processor and may come in two variants — 4GB RAM + 64GB internal storage and 6GB RAM +128GB internal storage.

Galaxy M, an online-exclusive smartphone line focused on young



consumers which debuted last year, has helped Samsung win market share in the growing online channel in India.

Galaxy M21 is likely to retail on Amazon as well as select retail outlets.

This will be the latest in Samsung’s M series in India after the South Korean tech giant launched Galaxy M31 on February 25 at a starting price of Rs 15,999.

Samsung has, in fact, actually started doing well in the online space for the past couple of quarters.

Its Galaxy M series, in particular the Galaxy M30s device, performed well in the online segment, helping revive its online share in the fourth quarter of 2019 at an all-time high of 16.6 per cent.
