Samsung Galaxy M10 (2GB RAM + 16GB)

Samsung has finally introduced its notch design in India – something it resisted through the whole of 2018. Yes, Samsung prefers to call it Infinity V display, it does make Galaxy M10 unique in its class.

The Galaxy M10 facia includes a 6.2-inch Infinity-V TFT LCD panel. On the sides and top the M10 display has extremely narrow bezels which seem slimmer than what you’d see on its direct competitors – Redmi 6A and Realme C1. The Galaxy M10 has about 90 percent screen to body ratio which is certainly great considering its affordable price. Having said that, there is healthy lip at the bottom.

The Galaxy M10 is driven by 14nm based Exynos 7870 chipset which is in the same league as Snapdragon 625, MediaTek Helio P23, or Kirin 659 chipsets in terms of day to day performance. Samsung is offering the M10 two configurations: 2GB RAM with 16GB ROM and 3GB RAM with 32GB ROM. There is a dedication expansion slot which can hold up to 512GB microSD cards.
