Samsung is working on the Galaxy M36, and the phone was just spotted in the Geekbench online database since a prototype ran the benchmark. As usual, this means we get an idea of what to expect from it in terms of SoC, RAM, and the Android version it will be launching with.
The Galaxy M36 that ran Geekbench has the model number SM-M366B, meaning it’s the global version. It’s powered by the Exynos 1380 SoC, which in that specific prototype was paired with 6GB of RAM. The handset will run Android 15 from day one, with One UI 7 on top.
Unfortunately, no other specs of the M36 have been outed yet. Last year, the Galaxy M35 was almost identical to the Galaxy A35, but the M35 had a bigger 6,000 mAh battery and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Something similar may happen this year, but the already available A36 uses the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset, so that will be one more difference between the two.
If they are otherwise the same, then expect the M36 to come with a 6.7-inch 1080×2340 Super AMOLED screen with 120 Hz refresh rate and 1,900-nit peak brightness, up to 12GB of RAM, 128/256GB of storage, a 50 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide, a 5 MP macro camera, and a 12 MP selfie snapper.
