The last major M-series phone from Samsung was the Snapdragon 675 powered Galaxy M40 that had debuted in June. Now a report by 91mobiles reveals that the South Korean tech giant is planning to introduce a new M-series phone later this month, which could arrive as the Galaxy M50. The publication has managed to get hold of a message from Samsung that was sent to the company’s retail partners. Notably, while all the M-series phones the brand has launched so far were made available through the online sales partners, the upcoming Galaxy M series offering will also be up for grabs from major brick-and-mortar retail stores across the country.
