Reviews for the Samsung Galaxy M10

48% Samsung Galaxy M10 review
Source: GSM Arena English Archive.org version
So summing up our review findings - the Galaxy M10's battery life is okay, the ultra wide-angle lens is usable, the whole camera experience is comparable to the rest of the phones in its class, and video recording is even pretty good as far as Full HD videos go. And although not very bright, the screen is okay too. And that's all there is to say about the Galaxy M10.

Samsung Galaxy M10 review: Despite flaws, a decent value-for-money phone
Source: Business Standard English Archive.org version
With a starting price of Rs 7990, the Samsung Galaxy M10 is a good option in the budget segment. While it ticks most of the boxes right, the lack of basic utility tools like a fingerprint sensor makes it lose out to competitors like the Realme C1, Xiaomi Y1, etc. However, even with its limitations, the Galaxy M10 delivers great value for money and good performance.

Samsung Galaxy M10 Review: Will it be able to make its presence felt?
Source: The Mobile Indian English Archive.org version
Samsung Galaxy M10 comes with an impressive compact form factor, good display, average camera, Android 8.1 Oreo and decent battery life. It is a solid option for those who are looking for a well-built, modern-looking phone that does the basics, though it is not meant for serious gaming. At this price point, the phone goes right up against the RealMe C1, and Xiaomi Redmi 6 both of which are its strong competitors. If you do go for the Samsung Galaxy M10, we recommend you buy the 3GB RAM/ 32GB storage variant.

Source: The Indian Express English Archive.org version
Samsung Galaxy M10 is a good option considering the overall performance, display and a reliable battery. The camera are decent as well. The budget smartphone segment is the most crowded and the Galaxy M10 will face tough competition from Realme C1 that comes with similar specifications, and Xiaomi Redmi 6 series. Still, Galaxy M10 doesn’t disappoint on performance, display, and battery, which is crucial in the under Rs 9000 segment.

To wrap up, the Samsung Galaxy M10 looks promising and comes loaded with some interesting features at this price point. As for the competition is concerned, the phone will be pitted against Asus Zenfone Max M2, Micromax Infinity 11 and Mobiistar X1 Notch, which are one of the best options available at this price range.

Galaxy M10 hands-on: Infinity-V display, ultra-wide camera for cheap
Source: Sam Mobile English Archive.org version
As always, whether the Galaxy M10 is a device worth purchasing is something you’ll find out in our full review. With the Galaxy M20’s base variant priced just ₹2,000 higher than the 3GB+32GB M10, I can see the M10 being bought by those who have a very limited budget on their hands. But, again, look out for our full review for a proper verdict on the device.

81% Samsung Galaxy M10 Review: The foot soldier of the M series
Source: Tech PP English Archive.org version
The M10 starts at Rs 7,990 for the 2 GB/ 16 GB edition and Rs 8,990 for the 3GB/32GB edition, and well, at that price, it goes right up against the RealMe C1, and most notably, the Redmi 6. And thanks to that camera and a very decent display, is more than capable of holding its own against them, although some will point out that the Redmi 6 has better memory/storage configurations, that its Helio P22 processor works better, and well, it has a fingerprint scanner. In fact, while the M20 might get more attention, we suspect it is the M10 that might end up with the higher sales figures. It just seems to give more at a lower price, and well, Samsung’s brand equity is likely to carry much more weight at a lower price point, especially for those who are looking to invest in a good smartphone at a relatively tight budget. It might seem like a Jack in the Galaxy M series deck, but it could well be an ace in disguise.

Samsung Galaxy M10 review: A well-built, modern-looking phone that does the basics
Source: Android Authority English Archive.org version
The Galaxy M series of phones represent Samsung’s renewed focus on a younger audience. Unfortunately for Samsung, that same audience cares just as much about features and specifications as much as a great experience. The lackadaisical performance, missing fingerprint reader, and average camera performance certainly aren’t doing the Galaxy M10 any favors.

69.33%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
