A 7000mAh battery, 7nm chipset and Android 11 out of the box – what’s not to love about the Samsung Galaxy F62? Samsung’s new mid-ranger for India goes on sale tomorrow at noon and we were wondering how many of you would pick one.
Let’s start with the battery because that’s the main feature – the 7000mAh power cell will deliver exceptional battery life and reasonably fast charging times with the supplied (!) 25W charger. But you can get the same with the Galaxy M51, which costs about the same price.
Both phones appear to have the same 6.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus displays (1080p + resolution, 60Hz), the same camera setup, including a 64MP main camera, 12MP ultra-wide camera, and 32MP selfie camera. So why is this one better?
Where the Galaxy F62 stands out is the Exynos 9825 chipset (aka the Galaxy Note10 + chipset). It beats M51’s Snapdragon 730G (8nm) in CPU and GPU benchmarks and the difference is quite pronounced. Keep in mind that this chip was once in competition with the Snapdragon 855.
Additionally, the F62 comes with Android 11 and One UI 3.1 out of the box. To be fair, the M51 is slated to receive Android 11 in April, but that still has implications for the final update these two phones will receive.
Let’s take a quick look at the alternatives, there aren’t many in this price range. A Poco X3, for example, offers a 6000mAh battery (33W charging), a Snapdragon 732G, a similar camera setup, and a 6.67in 1080p + LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Currently, it can be found for 18,000 INR.
So, with all of that in mind – how many of you are buying a Galaxy F62?
