Without fanfare, Samsung officially revealed the Galaxy M15 in mid-March. Now, and just as quietly, the Galaxy M15 has popped up on Amazon India for a pre-booking period.
The Galaxy M15 can now be pre-booked in India for an advance payment of INR 999 ($12). The final retail price remains unknown, but Amazon says the cost of the Galaxy M15 will be revealed once customers are given the option to complete their purchase.
Speaking of purchase, pre-booking customers can choose from two memory configurations for the Galaxy M15 5G, including 4GB+128GB and 6GB+128GB. The phone offers three color options: Blue Topaz, Celestial Blue, which is a lighter shade of blue, and Stone Gray.
As a bonus, customers who pre-book the Galaxy M15 and complete the purchase in due time can benefit from a discount on the 25W Samsung charger (via MySmartPrice). They can buy one for just INR 299 ($3.5) instead of the usual INR 1,299 ($15) price.
Purchase window opens next month
Although neither Samsung nor Amazon have set the Galaxy M15's release date in stone formally, the pre-booking page on Amazon states that customers will be able to complete their purchase on April 8. And that is likely when the Galaxy M15 will be officially available to all prospective buyers.
One thing to keep in mind if you plan on pre-booking the device is that you must complete your purchase on April 8 to take advantage of the Samsung 25W charger promotional offer.
As for the Galaxy M15 5G itself, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chip and a 6,000mAh battery with 25W charging. It features a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display with a FHD+ resolution and a refresh rate of up to 90Hz.
The phone runs One UI 6.1, but it doesn't have Galaxy AI features. No mid-range phone has Galaxy AI, and you'd have to spend more on a Galaxy S23 FE (or higher) to be able to use Samsung's AI tools. Or you can use Galaxy AI alternatives offered by brands like Google and Microsoft.
Back to hardware specifications, Samsung's Galaxy M15 is also equipped with a 50MP primary camera, a 5MP ultra-wide shooter, a 2MP macro sensor, and a 13MP selfie unit. It is one of the few Samsung phones on the market to sport a 3.5mm audio jack and expandable storage.
