The latest addition to the Galaxy M series, the Samsung Galaxy M35, has the key features the series is known for: big battery and an OLED screen. What makes this one extra special is the extensive software support.
With the Samsung Galaxy M35, you’re getting a 6,000mAh battery, bigger than the usual 5,000mAh capacity you get on other midrange phones. What’s more, the device will ship with Android 14-based One UI 6.1 out of the box and will get 4 years of OS upgrades and 5 years of security patches — a generous amount of support for a non-flagship smartphone.

On the front, we have a fancy 6.6-inch FHD+ OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate for extra smoothness and a decent 1,000 nits of peak brightness.
The screen has a punch-hole cutout for the 13-megapixel selfie camera. On the back, we have a 50-megapixel main shooter with optical image stabilization, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide, and a 2-megapixel macro lens.

As a cherry on top, the device has stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos.
Meanwhile, the charging it comes with has a 25W capacity, which isn’t surprising for a Samsung budget phone.

The Samsung Galaxy M35 is available in Brazil for a price of BRL2,699 (~Php30,200). No word yet if it will arrive in other markets.
