Samsung Galaxy M36 now has an official launch date
Samsung started teasing the upcoming Galaxy M36 in India a couple of days ago, and today it's finally announced when the phone is getting official: on June 27 at 12 noon local time.
It will be offered through Amazon in Orange Haze, Velvet Black, and Serene Green. The screen will come with Gorilla Glass Victus+ on top, and on the rear there will be three cameras: a 50 MP main with OIS, an 8 MP ultrawide, and a 2 MP macro shooter. For selfies you're getting a 13 MP snapper inside the notch (which is a weird design change compared to the M35 that had a hole-punch).
Samsung advertises 2m drop protection too. According to a recent Geekbench run, the Galaxy M36 is powered by Samsung's Exynos 1380 SoC, paired with 6GB of RAM. It will run Android 15 with One UI 7 on top.

Samsung could launch three new phones before Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7
Samsung is rumored to announce its new flagship foldables, Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7, on July 9. But before that happens, the South Korean company could launch no less than three other Android smartphones, which are part of three different families: Galaxy A, Galaxy F, and Galaxy M. All three phones have been recently spotted in the database of the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), which basically means that it's just a matter of time before they go official. They are listed with their model numbers, not the actual market names: SM-A075F/DS, SM-E075F/DS, and SM-M075F/DS. While there's absolutely no information yet about the Galaxy F07 and Galaxy M07, we have plenty of details about the Galaxy A06, an entry-level smartphone that might not bring too many improvements over its predecessor, Galaxy to previous reports, the Galaxy A07 is a 4G phone that will 6/8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage (expandable up to 1TB via microSD), which is more than decent for a budget-friendly phone. A trio of affordable smartphones have been certified for sale in India | Image credit: XpertPick Just like the Galaxy A06, the upcoming model is said to feature a large 6.7-inch PLS LCD display with HD+ resolution. However, the Galaxy A07 is expected to be powered by a slightly larger 5,500 mAh battery with support for 25W wired charging. In comparison, the Galaxy A06 comes with a smaller 5,000 mAh battery, so that's one worthy far as the camera is concerned, improvements are likely to be minimal. The Galaxy A07 is said to feature a dual camera system, just like the Galaxy A06: 50-megapixel main and 2-megapixel depth sensor. Thankfully, the selfies snapper is expected to receive a boost from 8- to 16-megapixel. Naturally, all three affordable smartphones will ship with Android 15 right out of the box, but they will probably be eligible for several major OS updates and many more security updates. Based on previous history, the Galaxy F07 and M07 could have the same specs as the Galaxy A07. It has become the norm for Samsung to launch the same phone under different names in India, so this might be one of those cases. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

This is the second most important factor that phone manufacturers need to work on, in my opinion, with the most important one being better batteries. And while the iPhone 18 may not look like an Apple phone, the iPhone 20 and its competitors already have my attention. According to the leak, the Android manufacturers that are also researching under-display cameras are the 'top five' brands.

Numerous recent reports have alleged that Apple is working on a new iPhone Pro model for the 20th anniversary of the iPhone in 2027. This iPhone will have a display free of any distractions, and now it seems ) that major Android manufacturers are also looking to adopt under-display cameras around that iPhone 20 — Apple will likely skip an iPhone 19 — will also have no bezels, as the screen will curve backwards at the edges. In preparation for the iPhone 20, Apple is apparently going to release the iPhone 18 with a punch hole camera, as the Face ID will be housed under the display. I, personally, think that this will continue a trend that will begin this year with the iPhone 17 However, if Apple and major Android manufacturers are all aiming for under-display cameras by 2027, it makes me wonder whether there's been a breakthrough. Under-display cameras take much poorer quality photos compared to traditional cameras. So much so, in fact, that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 won't have an under-display camera at if all of the top dogs are still opting for the same thing, there's either a much better camera in the works, or they simply don't want to look outdated next to competitors.
