Samsung has launched its budget smartphone Galaxy M15 5G in Nepal at a convenient price. It’s a next-generation device that succeeds Galaxy M14 5G and competes with devices under Rs 30,000 in Nepal. The device comes with a 6,000mAh battery 128 GB of storage, and a Dimensity 6100+ chipset among its best features. Here’s a look at its specifications, performance, and the price of Samsung Galaxy M15 5G in Nepal as well as our verdict.
Samsung Galaxy M15 5G specifications
Coming in as a budget smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy M15 5G features a 6.5-inch super AMOLED screen with a 90 Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 800 nits. It’s a 1080 x 2340-pixel resolution with a 396 ppi. Further, the device is slightly bulkier than its predecessor Galaxy M14 5G at 217 grams compared to 206 grams. However, it shares the same body material- a plastic back and frame with a front glass screen. In fact, the Galaxy M15 5G largely takes its design language from its previous sibling with the hardware being a key differentiator. Additionally, the device largely bears a resemblance to the Galaxy A15 5G.
Just like its predecessor, the Galaxy M15 5G is also a triple-camera phone. It’s got, for instance, a 50 MP wide main camera, a 5 MP ultrawide camera, and a 2 MP macro lens. Similarly, there’s a 13 MP selfie shooter on the front. Both front and back cameras can shoot videos at 1080p@30fps. The device boots to One UI 6 based on Android 14 which ensures a fresh Android experience right out of the box. Also, Samsung promises 4 years of OS upgrade plus 5 years of security updates. Most Samsung mobile phones are getting these generous updates and this should likely be the trend for future Galaxy devices too.
RAM and storage
Powering the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chipset which is an octa-core processor with a maximum clock speed of 2.2 GHz. The silicon is paired with Mali-G57 MC2 for graphics tasks. In terms of RAM and storage, we do see another improvement. The device comes with 4/128 GB, 6/128 GB, 8/128 GB, 8 /256 GB options. Although these are the globally unveiled variants, we have to wait to know which of these Samsung Nepal will bring into the country. But it’s certain that the device lets you expand the storage to up to 1 TB via a microSD card.
Battery and others
The Galaxy M15 5G features a massive 6,000mAh non-removable battery pack. It also boasts a 25W wired fast-charging capability. As for connectivity, the device can connect to up to 5G network in cellular connection, and support up to WiFi 5 standard. NFC is also available however, that’s market-dependent and it features a USB Type-C 2.0 port. Besides, you get standard navigation and sensor features as well.
