Samsung launched the Galaxy M15 earlier this year as the latest member of its affordable mid-range smartphone lineup with large batteries. An new leak reveals the first detailed renders of the South Korean giant’s upcoming successor. Here is a look at all three colourways of Samsung’s Galaxy M16 5G, leaving nothing to the imagination.
There are sharper border lines on the flat sides of the Galaxy M16 5G compared to its predecessor. Samsung has already incorporated a flat frame on the Galaxy M15, but the edges still have a slight curve, which gives it an “outdated” look. The next-gen Samsung phone will ditch this design in favour of something more similar to Samsung’s newest flagship and mid-range devices.
The company has chosen to take a less minimalist approach to its camera module design. There will be three rear camera sensors arranged vertically, surrounded by an “island” on the Galaxy M16 5G. Samsung is bringing a new design language to its upcoming affordable phones, but is this the beginning of something new? We’ll have to wait and see.
On the left side of the Galaxy M16 5G, there is a SIM card slot, while on the right are power and volume buttons, as well as a fingerprint reader. The fact that Samsung continues to use side-mounted fingerprint readers on AMOLED phones is interesting.
Samsung will also retain the Infinity-U notch for the front camera sensor, something that was dropped on the Galaxy A16.
