The Samsung Galaxy M31 may have popped up on Geekbench
A phone called the Samsung SM-M315F has appeared on Geekbench. It may be a successor to the Galaxy M30, although it seems to have the same chipset as the M30s and A51. Should this be the case, there may be little to differentiate it from the new mid-ranger.
The Samsung SM-M315F has posted a couple of listings on Geekbench 5. Going by the model number, it is possible that this device will be known as the Samsung Galaxy M31 on launch. As it will follow the likes of the M30s, this potential upper-mid-tier phone may be subject to quite some expectation if it launches next year.
Ironically, however, it seems to rock the same processor as an A-series device: the Galaxy A51. This recently-unveiled A50 successor runs on the Exynos 9611. Furthermore, it and the newly leaked SM-M315F apparently share additional specs.
They comprise 6GB of RAM and Android 10 (presumably skinned with One UI 2.0). Accordingly, the "Galaxy M31" has recorded scores that are very comparable to that of the Galaxy A51 on the same benchmark. Therefore, should this leak prove genuine, some Samsung fans may hope for more distinguishing factors in the finished Galaxy M31 product.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
