Why does this story matter?
Samsung is ready to take on India's highly competitive mid-range segment with the Galaxy M33 5G, which claims to have some segment-best features. Although the phone was unveiled globally earlier this month, the company has managed to keep certain key details still under the wraps. This has piqued the public curiosity regarding the phone. India-specific M33 may have some differences from its global counterpart.
The handset has a waterdrop notch design
The Galaxy M33 5G sports a waterdrop notch design, a prominent bottom bezel, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. It has a square-shaped camera unit on the rear. The handset packs a 6.6-inch Full-HD+ (1080x2408 pixels) TFT LCD display with an aspect ratio of 20:9 and a 90Hz refresh rate. It is available in Green, Blue, and Brown color options.
It sports a 50MP main camera
The Galaxy M33 5G flaunts a quad rear camera module, comprising a 50MP (f/1.8) primary snapper, a 5MP (f/2.2) ultra-wide sensor, a 2MP (f/2.2) macro lens, and a 2MP (f/2.2) depth shooter. Up front, it has an 8MP (f/2.2) selfie snapper.
A 5nm octa-core chip powers the device
The Galaxy M33 5G will be fueled by an unspecified 5nm octa-core 2.4GHz SoC, coupled with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. At the heart, it runs on Android 12-based One UI 4.1 and packs a 6,000mAh battery with 25W fast-charging support. For connectivity, the handset offers support for 5G, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, and a Type-C port.
