Samsung Galaxy M31 : Unboxing
First of all let’s start with the display of the phone. The display
of the phone comes with 6.4 inches of full HD+ super amoled display and
protected by gorilla glass 3. Generally the phones of Samsung whether it is mid
range phone, budget phone or top of the line phone, it always get a nice
display and Samsung Galaxy m31 is no different. The bezels of the phone is very
thin having average chin size and have a nice screen to body ratio. So overall
it is a nice display.
To be honest with you, we liked it. If you are a heavy user and battery is more important then we will definitely suggest you. It definitely gives a good multi-media experience if you use multi-media a lot because of it's display. However, one thing that we give more importance is the processor of the phone. All the performance of the phone is based on it's processor. The processor of the phone decides whether you are going use the phone 1 Yrs or more or 6 months, so from that perspective M31 lacks a bit. It comes with Exynos 9611 processor but this could have been even better.
It's all about our opinion on this phone. What else do you think about this phone? Is the Samsung Galaxy M31 be able to grab the market as like M30. Let us know by commenting below. Lastly please show your love by following us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube.

The Samsung Galaxy M31 comes with Exynos 9611 Processor
based on 10nm technology. The phone has a 6GB of RAM and 128 GB of ROM, having
a RAM type of LPDDR4x which is quite decent. The Storage type of the phone is
UFS 2.1. We expect a better processor than this because M30 already comes with
this cheapest and now M31 as well. The phone is available in two storage
variants- 6GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB.
Talking about
the operating system of the phone, it comes with One UI 2.0 which is very
simple, streamlined and quite user friendly as well but one thing to say that
it comes with many pre-installed apps which can be un-installed. The One UI 2.0 is based on android 10 and the user will also
the security patch of February. Talking about the sensors of the phone then it
comes with all the types of sensors having a rear mounted physical finger print
sensor and face unlock as well. The finger print sensor and face unlock both
worked well but the face unlock works slightly slower.
The phone comes with dual 4G VOLTE and also
supportable of wi-fi calling. It is supportable of camera to API which means we
can GCAM out of the box. It is also supportable Widevine L1 so HD video steaming
can be possible. It is supportable FM and Radio as well.
Talking about the
battery of the phone then it is the biggest highlight of the phone. This phone
has a battery capacity of 6000 mAh with 15W of fast charging. If the charger is
of 18W or 20W then this could have been more better. The multi-media experience
of the phone is phone is good. The colours on the screen looks very good as it
have super amoled display but is not supportable of HDR 10. Even you can’t face
any problem in sunlight as well. Talking about the audio of the phone then it
is average. The audio of the phone is loud but the quality is not excellent but
decent.

Samsung Galaxy M31 : Performance
The Samsung Galaxy M31 come with 9611 Exynos processor and
we will not say it is good but decent. This could have been better if we see
the price range. We can play PUBG or COD in low and medium settings and problem
in that. But if we play in high settings, we will face frame drops and other
problems.

Samsung Galaxy M31 : Camera
The major upgrade of M31 from M30 is the camera. The Galaxy
M30 comes with triple rear cameras but the M31 comes with Quad rear camera
setup having 64 MP of primary camera, 8 MP of Ultra Wide camera, 5 MP of Macro
camera and + 5 MP of Depth camera. The Selfie camera of the phone is come 32
MP. Talking about the photos then they come up quite decent. The colours in the
photo is bright and looks very natural. The camera UI of the phone is also
feature rich so no problem from that perspective. The camera app of the phone
is also feature rich having features like animozy and others. So from the
camera point of view it is good.
