Brand launched Samsung Officially, the global version of the Galaxy M12 phone, as previously the company announced the phone specifically for the Indian markets only, and the global version differs with some slight differences in terms of specifications and performance from the India version, perhaps the most important of which is the reduction of the battery capacity from 6000 mAh to 5000 amps.

Screen and design:

Samsung still maintains the same design character for its economical phones, and this is evident in the “waterdrop” protrusion instead of the “Punch Hole” with side edges and a large Black lower chin.

As for the manufacturing materials, the Korean company used plastic or polycarbonate materials for the back and frame of the Galaxy M12, with the screen reinforced with a glass protection layer, but it did not announce the type used.

As for the screen, we find that Samsung's combination here is somewhat strange. The company sacrificed the quality of the FHD and the usual AMOLED screen in order to provide a refresh rate higher than 90Hz to attract the attention of users who are looking for a high refresh rate for the screen.

Unfortunately, that was not the right decision. It is better to get an AMOLED screen that offers higher rates of brightness and saturation of colors with higher resolution and therefore more pixel density than to get just a higher refresh rate, which may not be noticed by a large segment of users in the first place.

Mobile performance:

Samsung used an Exynos 850 processor with a precision of 8nm, which has an Octa core processor with a frequency of up to 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55.

As for the actual performance of the Samsung Galaxy M12, it can be relied on in light and medium daily tasks such as browsing social networks, watching YouTube and many other medium tasks, but unfortunately the M12 will not be your best choice if you are a fan of high-graphics games such as Pupg or COD.

Camera and battery

Samsung M12 camera specifications
The main specifications of the Samsung M12 camera phone

The Samsung Galaxy M12 has a quad-lens rear camera setup, where the first camera comes with a 48-Megapixel camera with an f/2.0 lens slot that supports PDAF autofocus and is used for basic photography, and the second camera is 5-Megapixels with an f/2.2 lens slot and is dedicated to ultrawide photography at an angle of up to to 123 degrees.

The third and fourth sensors are both 2 mega-pixels f/2.4, but one is used for macro photography and the other contributes to improving the experience of the isolation mode known as portrait photos, a feature that enables you to isolate the background and give photos a better appearance.

The rear camera supports HDR and panorama mode, and it was limited to shooting 1080p @ 30fps videos and did not support 4K shooting.

The front camera has an 8-Megapixel camera with an f / 2.2 lens slot and supports HDR, and we can shoot videos up to FHD resolution.

As for the battery, which despite its capacity is less than 1000 amps compared to the Indian market version, but it is still one of the most important advantages of the device, as it can withstand a full day of hard work and perhaps more without the need to recharge it more than once.

Unfortunately, the charging speed was very modest and completely unsuitable for the battery size, as the phone would take about 3 hours or a little less to reach from 0% to 100%.

It is worth noting that the battery capacity is the same as that of a mobile phone battery Samsung A72 Which comes at a higher price tag.

Reviews of Samsung Galaxy M12

Below we present the most important advantages and disadvantages of the phone, with a mention of the most important points that distinguish it, in addition to the problems that you may encounter after purchasing.

Here is a short list of advantages and disadvantages:-

Samsung M12 Features:-

  • High screen refresh rate.
  • Large capacity battery gives you great battery life compared to competing phones.
  • Two SIM cards can be installed with an external storage card at the same time.
  • Good performance of cameras compared to competitors in this category such as Nokia G10.
  • Attractive design.

Disadvantages of Samsung M12:-

  • Increase the thickness and weight of the phone.
  • Low screen resolution, but it is normal compared to the price.
  • Double the number of screen pixels.
  • Primitive charging speed as it is a cost-effective mobile.
  • The phone is available in only one copy of 4/64 GB.
  • There is no dual-band Wi-Fi which makes the WIFI connection inferior to competitors.

Samsung Galaxy M12 price

The Samsung Galaxy M12 phone is available for sale exclusively on Amazon stores in the United Kingdom, starting from the 30th of this April, at a price of 180 EUR, equivalent to 3400 EGP, and it is known that mobile prices In European markets, it is high, so if the phone is launched in the Egyptian markets, it will be a little cheaper.

Note: The above prices are updated on May 16, 2021.

Conclusion:

Another phone from Samsung will depend in its sales on the company’s name. The company’s neglect is very clear and you will not get the best value for money in the Galaxy M12, as the screen resolution has decreased to HD, and the phone’s processor is not the strongest and the charging speed is a thing of the past.

If we put the phone in comparison with rivals like Nokia X20 And the Redmi Note 10 would definitely not be the best option.
