Earlier in November, a report exposed that Samsung is working on Galaxy M62. Going by its name, the device was thought to be a mid-range smartphone back then. But now, another report reveals it to be a tablet instead.
The Galaxy M series is Samsung’s online-exclusive device lineup with limited offline availability. So far, all the devices in this series have been entry-level, budget, and mid-range smartphones. Hence, the Galaxy M62 with model number SM-M625F was also expected to be a handset.
But it turns out that it will be the first-ever tablet in the Galaxy M series. According to the source of 91Mobiles, this device will go official as Galaxy Tab M62. But unfortunately, nothing else is known about this product except for the fact that it will be compact in size and will be available in a 256GB storage variant.
Currently, Samsung has two series of tablets. The premium and mid-tier models release with Galaxy Tab S branding. On the other hand, the budget models come with Galaxy Tab A branding.
Since the Galax M series’ placement is similar to the Galaxy A series, we can expect the Galaxy Tab M62 to be a budget tablet. Therefore, we think it could be the spiritual successor to the Galaxy J Max, the only tablet in the Galaxy J series that was launched in 2016.
But a benchmark listing says otherwise. Last week, a device going by the name of Galaxy F62 was spotted on Geekbench with Exynos 9825 and Android 11. For those unware, this is the same chipset that powers the last year’s Galaxy Note10 and Galaxy Note10+.
Further, since Galaxy M and Galaxy F series are idenntical except for their retailer exclusivity. Hence. this Galaxy F62 could be the Galaxy M62. If that is the case, then this device will be a mid-range tablet.
