Samsung has unveiled a new addition to its M series lineup, the Galaxy M35 5G. This mid-range smartphone caters to users who prioritize long battery life, a large display, and capable performance for everyday tasks.

The Galaxy M35 5G features a 6.6-inch S-AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution (1080 x 2400 pixels) and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. This combination promises vibrant colours, sharp visuals, and a responsive experience for watching videos, gaming, and browsing the web. The phone utilizes a textured plastic back that is available in three colour options: Dark Blue, Gray, and Sky Blue.

The Galaxy M35 5G is powered by the Samsung Exynos 1380 chipset, a mid-range processor known for its balanced performance and efficiency. This is paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, offering ample space for apps, photos, and videos. A microSD card slot allows for further storage expansion if needed.

A highlight of the Galaxy M35 5G is its massive 6,000mAh battery. This promises all-day usage on a single charge, with support for 25W fast charging to quickly refuel the device when needed.

The rear camera system on the Galaxy M35 5G consists of three sensors: a primary 50-megapixel wide-angle lens with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) for capturing sharp photos and videos, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens for capturing expansive scenes, and a 2-megapixel macro lens for close-up shots. A 13-megapixel camera on the front handles selfies and video calls.

The Galaxy M35 5G runs on Android 14 with Samsung’s One UI 6.1 on top. This latest software iteration offers a refined user interface, improved privacy controls, and access to the latest Google features. Samsung promises four major Android updates and five years of security updates, ensuring your phone stays protected and up-to-date for years to come.

Pricing & Availability

The Samsung Galaxy M35 5G is currently only available for pre-order in Brazil. The starting price is BRL 1,899 (approximately RM1,770 or USD$416) for the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant. It’s available in Dark Blue, Light Blue and Black. It is expected to launch in other markets soon.

Samsung One UI 6.1 Update Rolls Out to Galaxy A Series without Galaxy AI

The wait is over for some Samsung Galaxy A34 and A54 users, as the company has begun rolling out the latest One UI 6.1 update. This software update brings a variety of improvements and new features to the mid-range smartphone, but there’s a key caveat for users expecting significant AI enhancements.

While specific details haven’t been officially revealed by Samsung, reports suggest the One UI 6.1 update introduces various improvements for the Galaxy A series. This could potentially include a refreshed user interface, enhanced camera capabilities, and optimizations for smoother overall performance. Additionally, users might benefit from bug fixes and security patches, addressing any lingering software issues.

However, there’s a crucial detail to consider. Unlike Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S-series and foldable phones, the One UI 6.1 update for the Galaxy A34 and A54 reportedly doesn’t come with Galaxy AI. These advanced functionalities, showcased in other Samsung devices, leverage on-device processing for tasks like object recognition and Bixby scene detection.

That said, Samsung’s decision to withhold AI features from the Galaxy A34 aligns with its current strategy. The company tends to reserve its most advanced AI functionalities for its premium smartphone lines. This approach allows them to differentiate their flagship devices while ensuring a smooth and optimized user experience on more affordable models like the A34 and A54.

Samsung Refreshes the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite for 2024 with the Exynos 1280

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab lineup has been one of the most consistent and feature-packed tablets in the Android ecosystem. While that may be changing with more manufacturers entering the arena, the company is still releasing new tablets with its Galaxy Tab S and Galaxy Tab A lineups. Only recently, the company released its latest Galaxy Tab S9 series but it seems like another tablet is finding it hard to stay down.

In a global announcement, Samsung has announced a refresh to the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite. This will be the second refresh to the tablet that was released back in 2020. It received its previous refresh in 2022 when the tablet shifted to Qualcom’s Snapdragon platform. However, this year, it looks like Samsung is shifting its processor back to the homegrown Exynos 1280. The new processor is an octa-core processor with support for Bluetooth 5.3 and also AI features. It will be running One UI 6.1 atop Android 14.

Design-wise, it looks similar to its 2022 counterpart with a 10.4-inch LCD with an FHD+ resolution of 2,000×1200 pixels. The display is surrounded by a symmetrical 7mm bezel. The tablet will continue to sport a single 8-megapixel camera on the back and a 5-megapixel camera up front. It also comes with a 3.5mm earphone jack and support for WiFi 802.11 ac. The biggest change with the new Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is the increase in memory capacity. It now supports configurations with 64GB and 128GB of internal memory with support for more memory via microSD card. RAM, however, remains at 4GB.

Pricing & Availability

According to the announcement, the Galaxy Tab S6 Lite (2024) will be available globally starting 28 March 2024. It will be available in both WiFi and LTE configurations in Chiffon Pink, Oxford Gray and Mint.

No official pricing has been announced at the time of writing. However, it seems like it will be coming to Malaysia thanks to a SIRIM database entry found by LowYat.net.
