Galaxy M40 camera details surface ahead of June 11 launch

The Galaxy M40, Samsung’s fourth smartphone in the Galaxy M series, will soon be making its official debut, with the company having confirmed a June 11 launch for the device. The Galaxy M40 is going to have plenty of attractive features, like a triple rear camera setup, Snapdragon 675 SoC, and an Infinity-O display, which suggest it is going to be similar to the Galaxy A60 that was launched in China a few weeks ago. And supporting those rumors is a new report from 91Mobiles, which reveals the megapixel count for the primary rear camera and the front-facing camera.

32 million pixels at the back, half that for selfies

The information comes straight from the horse’s mouth: 91Mobiles was told by Asim Warsi, Senior Vice President at Samsung India, that the M40 will have a 32MP rear camera and a 16MP front-facing camera. The rear camera resolution matches that of the Galaxy A70, so we’re assuming the other two cameras at the back will be 8-megapixel ultra-wide and 5-megapixel depth sensors. It’s just an assumption, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility going by the specs for other smartphones Samsung has launched recently with triple-camera setups.

Warsi also said the Galaxy M40 “will be a flagship-category offering priced around ₹20,000 (~$285).” While the M40 will technically be a mid-range device, Samsung calling it a flagship-category phone makes sense, as the M40 will have impressive specs for a Galaxy phone priced under $300. In fact, it will probably end up affecting sales of the Galaxy A50 and Galaxy A70, both of which are excellent phones but will be undercut by the M40’s pricing. However, it may not have that much of an effect, as the Galaxy M40 will not be available at offline retail stores.

Samsung’s Exynos Auto 8890 to power Audi A4’s in-vehicle infotainment system

Samsung has been supplying its auto chips to Audi for use in its infotainment systems since 2017. Continuing the partnership, the South Korean electronics giant will now supply the German carmaker with its Exynos Auto 8890 processor. The processor will power Audi’s A4 and other upcoming cars’ upgraded in-vehicle infotainment system. The new Audi A4 will be available in Europe starting this fall.

Exynos Auto 8890 powers Audi A4

The Exynos Auto 8890 boasts 8 CPU cores and 12 GPU cores, and is capable of powering Audi’s modular infotainment platform (MIB). MIB is a technology “that anticipates the drivers’ needs by keeping up with the latest advancements in information and entertainment equipment”. The Exynos Auto 8890 will function as its main processing unit, handling multimedia playback, navigation, and vehicle control. The chip also supports multi-OS and can manage up to four displays simultaneously.

Samsung’s auto chips will continue to power Audi’s future cars as well, at least for a couple more years. Earlier this year, the company launched the Exynos Auto V9, its first Auto-branded Exynos processor. It will be used in the German automobile manufacturer’s next-generation in-vehicle infotainment system that is set to debut in 2021. Samsung’s automotive components received the ISO 26262 Certification from TUV Rheinland for functional safety earlier this month.

Samsung aims to make $1 billion in online smartphone sales in India

Samsung launched the online-exclusive Galaxy M series in India earlier this year in a bid to take on the competition from Chinese rivals in the budget segment. And it now appears to be reaping the benefits. The devices, which include the Galaxy M10, M20, and the M30, have sold over 2 million units since launch. A fourth member of the series, the Galaxy M40, is launching on June 11.

Samsung targeting $1 billion in online sales in India

Samsung lost the crown of India’s largest smartphone vendor to Xiaomi last year, mostly because of poor sales of its budget phones. The company reshuffled the portfolio this year and launched the new online-exclusive Galaxy M series. It has since been selling well, giving Samsung hopes of doubling its online smartphone sales in the country. The South Korean tech giant is aiming to generate $1 billion in online sales in India this year.

Samsung also revamped the Galaxy A series, which sells offline as well, to launch several new aggressively priced smartphones. And these device are doing even better. The company sold 5 million units of the new Galaxy A phones within 70 days of launch, generating well over $1 billion in sales. Samsung plans to make Galaxy A the biggest smartphone brand in India.

Samsung is also planning to expand local production in India. It is mulling a ₹2,500 crore (~$360 million) investment in the country to set up two new production plants for local manufacturing of smartphone displays and batteries.

New Galaxy S10 update released, may fix issues introduced by last update

Samsung has released a new update for the Galaxy S10 in Switzerland today, and while we don’t have details on what it brings, it could be the bug-fixing update everyone is looking forward to after the May security update mucked things up for many users. Switzerland was the first market where the May update was released, so it’s certainly possible it’s the first to be getting a hotfix update as well. The new software version XXU1ASE6 while the previous one was XXU1ASE5.

An anticipated update that turned into a nightmare

The May update for the Galaxy S10 was supposed to be all about improving the camera’s performance in low-light situations and adding new functions, such as the option to take Night mode pictures with the ultra-wide camera and being able to take panorama pictures with the primary camera. However, it ended up introducing a slew of bugs as well: Many users saw their phone freezing and restarting from time to time, while others faced issues (some of us here at SamMobile included) with third-party apps like Twitter.

It did work fine for some folks, but the problems were widespread enough for Samsung to pull the update off the air. And while there’s no official word on whether the newly released update will fix those issues, we certainly hope it will. Even a factory reset didn’t make things better for those who had their device affected by installing the May update, making a hotfix update the only real solution.

Fixes included in new update?

If you own a Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, or Galaxy S10+, you should check if the update is available for you by going into the Settings app, tapping Software update, then selecting the Download and install option. Do let us know in the comments if it manages to clear up all the issues on your device, and also what country you’re in so other readers can know if the update is available for them.
