Of note is that, as of this writing, the Galaxy M12 can’t be purchased online from Samsung’s eshop, but customers can refer to a ‘where to buy‘ map and locate nearby physical stores that have the Galaxy M12 up for sale. The phone is available in three color options: black, blue, and green.

Samsung’s new M-branded budget device would’ve looked entirely like a rebadged Galaxy A12 if it weren’t for the different pattern on the back panel. However, even though both phones look similar and share various characteristics, a few of key differences between them exist.

The new Galaxy M12 has an Exynos 850 chipset instead of a MediaTek one, and it’s powered by a larger 6,000mAh battery, up from 5,000mAh. In addition, it ships to customers with Android 11 instead of version 10.
