Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy M36 technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy M36 suits buyers who want a large display, a slim body and a well-equipped main camera. Its main trade-off is the battery: 5000 mAh is less capacity than most phones of its time.

Its 6.7″ display uses Super AMOLED technology, runs at 120 Hz and reaches 1200 nits peak brightness. The refresh rate and brightness are typical for phones of its time, while the 7.7 mm body is slimmer than most of them.

This configuration pairs the Samsung Exynos 1380 with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. Storage is expandable, and the Galaxy M36 is also sold in 8 GB / 128 GB and 8 GB / 256 GB configurations. The 50 MP camera has an f/1.8 aperture, optical stabilization and 4K video at 30 fps, with an 8 MP ultra-wide camera alongside it. Its camera specifications are better than those of most phones of its time.

The phone also brings 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC and dual SIM, plus stereo speakers and six years of OS updates. Overall, it is typical among phones of its time, with a NeoScore of 6.4. That makes it a balanced choice for buyers who prioritize the display, camera and connectivity.
