Samsung Galaxy M10 and M20 will sport Infinity V notch displays, launch in Jan 2019 in India: Report

Samsung is supposed to launch its new Galaxy M series in January 2019 in India, which will come with an Infinity V notched display

Samsung India is expected to launch a new Galaxy M series in January 2019 with an Infinity V Notch display, according to several reports. Our sources at Samsung also confirmed that the new Galaxy M phones will have the notch. The new display strategy is very interesting and will mark a clear departure from what Samsunghas previously told indianexpress.com. 

“We make our own displays and we were the first to disrupt the Infinity display experience on the Galaxy S8. Even then, we had a choice to port a notched display, but we chose not to do that. We believe that it is a clutter creating experience when watching videos and we have chosen strategically to stay away from that kind of an experience,” Sumit Walia, Director Mobile Marketing of Samsung India had told indianexpress.com on the sidelines of Galaxy A7 launch last year.

However, this looks set to change with the Galaxy M phones. Earlier a support page for the Galaxy M10 was spotted on the India website of the brand. Samsung is expected to launch three phones in the Galaxy M series, with Galaxy M10 and Galaxy M20 and a Galaxy M30 variant as well.

The support page mentions the model number SM-M105F/DS variant of the Galaxy M10 on its website, and the phone will be a dual-SIM one, which is not surprising for the Indian market. The support page does not reveal anything else, but there have been plenty of other leaks around the Galaxy M10 and M20.

Our sources at Samsung also confirmed that the Galaxy M series will be powered by an Exynos processor and priced in the mid-range segment. Samsung will be targeting millennials with its Galaxy M series in India, and the base Galaxy M10 could be in the Rs 10,000 price range. The price though could change depending on the variant
