Samsung Galaxy M20 review: Finally a credible threat to Xiaomi

The Galaxy M20 represents the first credible option from Samsung to take competing phones from Xiaomi and Honor, head on. Between the stellar battery life and great looking display, the Galaxy M20 should be high up in your list of devices to consider.

[Review] Samsung Galaxy M20 – Workhorse Wonder
Source: English Archive.org version
In terms of endurance, the Galaxy M20 is a real trooper. Even at full tilt with heavy use catching up on movies, social media and heavy gaming in the form of PUBG and Clash Royale the phone managed to last easily north of a day and a half. The 5,000mAh battery supports 15W quick charging though we were unable to test this as we lacked a full retail set though a third party charger got it to full in about two and a half hours from dead zero. As it stands, the Galaxy M20 is a solidly made midrange phone that has it where it counts. For a price tag of RM799, you get a large and vibrant Full HD+ display, impressive battery life and decent overall performance though some quibbles remain like a middling mono speaker, and a plasticky albeit sturdy chassis. These are however minor quibbles at best. If you’re looking for an affordable midrange phone from the marque, the Galaxy M20 is a very sound choice indeed.

The Galaxy M20 addresses a lot of the complaints we had with the M10 – it adds a fingerprint reader, a USB-C port and fast charging capability, and vastly improved performance. It is then an easy recommendation over its lesser brother unless you absolutely cannot stretch your budget.

Let’s be brutally honest here: Samsung’s phones have never been the best choice once you went down a certain price range. Sammy’s phones are pricey, but they were pricey for a reason: Samsung’s top-tier manufacturing methods and R&D efforts meant that their phones were better made if not necessarily better specc’d than the competition.

Samsung Galaxy M20 review: Putting the ‘M’ in masterstroke
Source: English Archive.org version
You must be wondering how the Galaxy M20 is a masterstroke when almost every aspect of the phone has some terms and conditions that stop it from being truly great in any department. Well, it’s a masterstroke because Samsung has managed to price the phone unexpectedly well. I mean, the Galaxy J6 launched in May last year with a higher price tag for the base model despite having far lesser specs than the M20. I guess Samsung finally realized it has to forego all profits if it wants to stay competitive in the budget smartphone market.

The Samsung Galaxy M20, in its bid to compete strongly against the Chinese incumbents, implements a lot of firsts for a Samsung device — A new design, wide-angle cameras and a massive battery. But all that doesn’t discount the fact that the Galaxy M20 is not for everyone. It’s the right choice if you absolutely demand a wide-angle camera to play around with, but for everything else, be it performance or gaming, there are better devices available in the market.

Samsung Galaxy M20 Review: Is it a Dawn of new Samsung era?
Source: English Archive.org version
With the Galaxy M20, Samsung has finally offered an interesting proposition for its loyal fanbase. The phone is loaded with a standard design, though the display is quite interesting. The performance as a daily driver is good, though it is not meant for some serious gaming. The phone offers smooth and highly-customisable user interface, though it is still loaded with bloatware. Camera performance is a mixed bag and hopefully, a software update can improve it. The battery life is really impressive, in our testing. Overall, if you are Samsung fanboy, who was earlier disappointed with the company’s product lineup, the Galaxy M20 might excite you.

Samsung Galaxy M20 Review – Next big budget bestseller is here!

Overall, the Galaxy M20 is a clear winner for Samsung at competitive starting price of Rs. 10,999. It has a good display with minimal bezels, huge battery, USB Type-C with fast charging, ultra-wide angle lens that you don’t find on any other phones in the range, and decent performance for the price. Average low-light camera performance and the plastic body are the things you have to compromise. As I had mentioned earlier, it is recommended to get a case. Samsung doesn’t promise when the phone will get Android Pie update since its flagships have started getting the update recently.

Unlike some of its current competitors, Samsung has immense brand power.

Samsung Galaxy M20 review: Finally a credible threat to Xiaomi

The most obvious competition for the Galaxy M20 is, of course, the Redmi Note 6 Pro. While Xiaomi’s phone packs a bit more power under the hood, the M20’s larger display and bigger battery should make it a winner for most. Similarly, the phone is an obvious choice over the Honor 10 Lite, which we found to have rather middling performance.

That said, we have to concede that while the M20 definitely emerges as an alternative to the likes of the Redmi Note 6 Pro, the RealMe 2 Pro, and the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2, it does not really do enough to overwhelm them. We can see many people who prefer a “traditional” (and in some cases, non-Chinese) brand being attracted to the M20. But only time will tell whether it will win over those who have been charmed by the likes of Xiaomi. There is a new phone series in town and it certainly does more than enough to make both the competition and the consumer sit up and take notice. That’s always a good thing in our book.

The Galaxy M series is Samsung’s bid to start something fresh, something different from what the Galaxy On and Galaxy J series offered in the past.

The ultra wide-angle camera also offers something unique in this segment, and it is worth considering the M20 if these are the features you’re looking for.

Overall, the Galaxy M20 is Samsung’s best attempt yet at making a budget phone that isn’t dwarfed by the Chinese competition in terms of the specs and features on offer. The problem arises when you consider the fact that the M20 will only be sold online. Online buyers tend to be more knowledgeable, so despite the compelling price tag, the M20 may not sell as much as it would have if it were sold offline. Well, unless it manages to impress us and other reviewers, and you will need to wait a few days before you can find out if that’s the case.

Comment

Model: While the big names in the mobile phone industry have made most sales of Android phones in the past, it’s the smaller ones that are leading these days. Brands like Huawei, Honor, Xiaomi, Lenovo and Vivo are selling more and more entry level to mid-range Android smartphones. It looks like Samsung doesn’t want to be left out in this category. Their J series might be cheaper than the other series but in terms of performance to price ratio, they are nowhere near their Chinese competitors. The Samsung M20 is set to bridge that gap. For a start, the M20 offers a 6.3-inch, bezel-less TFT display with a resolution of 1,080 x 2,340 pixels. The viewing angles are said to be good and the display offers good sharpness. The screen-to-body ration is at 83.6 %. The phone itself measures in at 156.4 x 74.5 x 8.8 mm with a weight of 186 grams. This is relatively good.

The performance of the device has also been improved over the J series. The M20 has a Exynos 7904 processor with two configuration options, 64 GB ROM with 4 GB RAM or 32 GB ROM with 3 GB RAM. It also supports memory expansion via a dedicated microSD card slot. The Samsung Galaxy M20 has a dual camera setup like many of its competitors. The first one is a 13 MP, f/1.9 camera and the second is a 5.0 MP, f/2.2 ultrawide camera. The selfie camera, located in the drop-like notch, is an 8 MP, f/2.0 unit. Both sides are capable of shooting videos at 1080p resolution. Interestingly, Samsung has named the drop-notch as Infinity-V display. Underneath the phone, you’ll find a speaker grill, a USB Type-C port for charging and thankfully, a 3.5 mm headphones jack. On the back of the phone is a typical fingerprint scanner for faster, more secure access and unlocking. The highlight of this phone is its 5000 mAh battery, which also supports fast charging. With a battery in this size and not so power-hungry specs, the phone has a very long standby time and screen-on time. Most users report around 2 full day of normal usage. The M20 is a new hope for Samsung to penetrate the budget-friendly category. It comes in a great package with mid-range specs, enough to play games like PUBG at low-medium settings. With such capable phones at reasonable prices, it is hard to justify the flagship asking prices these days. The M20 is Samsung’s mark in the market, pointing out that it will battle the ultra-budget friendly devices from China.
