Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy M31s 8 GB / 128 GB / India / M317F technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy M31s suits everyday users who put battery capacity first, with below-average AnTuTu performance among phones launched around the same time as the main trade-off. This version pairs 6 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage; the phone was also sold with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB. Storage is expandable.

Its 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display has a 1080 × 2400 px resolution and 405 ppi density. The 60 Hz refresh rate is lower than on most phones launched around the same time, while pixel density is better than most. Always-On Display is included, and the overall screen and design sit above average. At 203 g, the phone is heavier than most phones of its time.

The camera is better than most: its 1/1.73-inch rear main sensor is larger than that of most phones launched around the same time, and it has 64 MP resolution. There is no optical zoom or optical image stabilization. The 6,000 mAh battery is among the largest-capacity batteries of its time, and 25 W charging is above average. Reverse charging is also supported. Connectivity is above average, with NFC, USB-C, and Dual SIM.

With a NeoScore of 5.6, the Galaxy M31s is a stronger fit for someone prioritizing a large battery and AMOLED display than for someone focused on performance.
