The Samsung Galaxy M series is a line of primarily online entry-level and mid-range budget smartphones manufactured by Samsung Electronics, marketed primarily for India and other emerging markets. The first models in the series, the Samsung Galaxy M10 & M20, were released on February 5, 2019; they were followed by the Samsung Galaxy M30 on March 7 and the Samsung Galaxy M40 on June 18. The Samsung Galaxy M10s and Samsung Galaxy M30s were announced on September 18, and both were released on September 29. ^[1] The Galaxy M01 and M11 were released on June 2, 2020 and were available for sale on both online and offline platforms. ^[2] On September 10, Samsung announced the Galaxy M51, the first upper mid-range model in the lineup. ^[3]

The primary selling point of the lineup is the higher-capacity battery, following the common trend within budget smartphones in the late-2010s. It is positioned below the Galaxy A series, although several models were derived from the Galaxy A series with several alterations.

Exclusively for the Indian market, Samsung also released a rebranded variant of the Galaxy M series, known as the Galaxy F series, in collaboration with Flipkart.

Description

Being positioned at the mid-range and low-end segments, all models in the series have all the essential features of an entry-level smartphone, besides some other advanced features, thus differentiating them from other series and also differ in size and design. Samsung targets Asian developing markets or the European entry-level market with the lineup as a response to the growing popularity of smartphones offered by Chinese manufacturers such as Xiaomi, realme and infinix.
