Samsung Galaxy M12/F12 specifications (expected)
Starting off with the design, the Samsung Galaxy M12/F12 is said to come with a major design change in terms of rear panel design. As per the previous leaks, the device is said to bring a unique dual-tone finish on the back. It is expected to sport a textured finish on the top and glossy finish on the bottom. Apart from that, the quad-camera setup will stay on the top corner.
On the front, the device is said to pack in a 6.5-inch punch-hole screen with 1399 x 720 pixels HD+ resolution. On the inside, the device will be powered by Samsung’s in-house Exynos 850 SoC which is an entry-level octa-core chipset. It has four Cortex-A55 cores running at 2GHz and four more Cortex-A55 running at 2GHz. As per the Google Play Console listing, the only change comes in terms of RAM. The Galaxy M12 is said to sport 6GB of RAM while the Galaxy F12 will sport 4GB of RAM. There could be multiple variants with different RAM and storage options once launched. But, this is all we have got for now.
As for the software, the device is said to run on Android 11 based on OneUI 3.0 out of the box. The ARM Mali-G76 will take care of GPU performance. The listing image also suggests the device will sport a dew-drop notch. While this is all the Google Play listing confirms, there are also some rumours saying the device will feature a massive 7000mAh battery just like we’ve seen on the Galaxy M51. Other details of the Galaxy M12/F12 is yet to be known.
The camera setup is rumoured to come with a 13MP primary shooter, a 5MP lens followed by two 2MP cameras. To the front, the device is tipped to offer an 8MP selfie shooter. The device was also spotted on the BIS certification site recently which means the launch is not too far away.
