Samsung Galaxy M36 5G launched: Exynos 1380, 6.7-inch Super AMOLED, 6 years OS updates

After the announcement of the Korea exclusive Galaxy Jump 4, Samsung now introduces the Galaxy M36 5G with strikingly similar details.

The phone's design

Same phone but with more storage options

The new device comes with Black, Orange, or Green colorways and a traditional Galaxy design with a clean look on the back. Similarly, it also boasts a 7.7mm thin profile for portability and aesthetics.

The features

In front, the Galaxy M36 5G sports a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED with FHD+ 2340 x 1080 resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ protection. A noticeable difference would be the In-Display fingerprint scanner instead of the side-mounted one from the Galaxy Jump 4.

Inside, the phone also uses the same 2.4GHz 5nm Exynos 1380 chip with Mali-G68 MP5 GPU. Although this time it comes with more memory configurations: 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB/256GB storage.

Powering the unit is a 5,000mAh battery with USB-C 25W fast charging support.

The camera system is identical as well. The phone uses a 50MP f/1.8 OIS main shooter + 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide + 2MP macro helper + LED flash.

For selfies, it uses a 12MP f/2.2 front camera.

The rest mentioned are WiFi (2.4GHz/5GHz), 5G, 4G, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, and GLONASS.

For OS, the phone runs on Android 15 with Samsung One UI 7 skin on top. 

Finally, it also comes with very long software support. The device can be upgraded to 6 OS versions and 6 security patches.
