Samsung isn’t done working on Galaxy M phones for 2020
At least two more models coming this year
Despite the chaotic uncertainty of 2020, one thing remains constant: the remarkable persistence of Samsung’s Galaxy M series. Though the smartphone industry suffered numerous delays this year, the South Korean company has constantly outed new Galaxy M models throughout the past few months. According to a report, Samsung isn’t done working on Galaxy M phones for 2020.
Exclusively reported by SamMobile, Samsung is still working to launch at least two Galaxy M models before the end of the year. Carrying the model numbers SM-M425F and SM-M127F, the two smartphones will reportedly turn up as the Galaxy M42 and the Galaxy M12s.
Of the two, the Galaxy M42 has the more storied career. Last year, Samsung released the Galaxy M40, a capable budget-friendly driver with a triple rear camera combination. This year, the company certified a 6800mAh whopper, the supposed battery of the potential Galaxy M41. However, despite the certification, Samsung didn’t utter as much as a peep of the alleged Galaxy M40 sequel. If the leak holds true, the company is moving up production a bit further by making the Galaxy M42 before the Galaxy M41.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy M12s has a stranger story. Last year’s Galaxy M10 marked one of the earliest entries for the Galaxy M series. This year, a follow-up — the Galaxy M11 — sported a massive 5000mAh battery. Who knows what the Galaxy M12s might hold?
Beside the ubiquitous Galaxy S and Note series, Samsung has constantly rounded out its smartphone offerings with a healthy lineup of midrange and budget-friendly models. With a thriving Galaxy M series, the company can offer its iconic Samsung experience to a wider audience.
Samsung’s most advanced AI-powered PC lineup yet, the Samsung Galaxy Book6 series, will be available in the United States starting March 11.
The Samsung Galaxy Book6 Ultra, Book6 Pro, and Book6 are all powered by Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors to deliver improved CPU, GPU, and NPU performance.
Galaxy AI features like AI Select and Intelligent Search streamline workflows, while Multi-Control and Second Screen enable seamless productivity across Galaxy devices.
Users can connect the Galaxy Book6 series to their Galaxy smartphone or tablet for multi-screen productivity. This includes accessing one’s phone storage straight from the Book6 PC.
And similar to Circle to Search on Galaxy mobile devices, the upcoming PCs have a feature wherein users can just trace whatever is on their screen and search.
In addition, the series combines ultra-thin designs with up to 30 hours of video playback.
Price, availability
Here are the pricing of the three devices under the series:
- Galaxy Book6 Ultra: Starts at US$ 2,449.99
- Galaxy Book6 Pro: Starts at US$ 1,599.99
- Galaxy Book6: Starts at US$ 1,049.99
They will be available nationwide at Samsung.com and Samsung Experience Stores beginning on March 11. Customers who reserve early will get a US$ 30 credit.
More details will be unveiled during the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event on February 25 at 10:00 A.M. PT / 1:00 A.M. ET.

Neon Genesis Evangelion is getting another anime series
Nier’s Yoko Taro is helming the project.
For an anime franchise that surely belongs in greatest-of-all-time lists, Neon Genesis Evangelion seems to thrive on controversy. From the polarizing ending of the original series to the controversial introduction of Mari Makinami in the Rebuild trilogy, there’s a lot to talk about between Evangelion fans. Now, the series has something new coming. Neon Genesis Evangelion is getting yet another series.
Most recently, the Rebuild of Evangelion completed its arc of rebooting the entire franchise with a more conclusive ending. It was a near conclusion, especially for those who grew dissatisfied with the previous attempts’ endings. Now, an upcoming series might take the franchise to new grounds.
To celebrate the franchise’s 30th anniversary, Neon Genesis Evangelion is getting a new series helmed by Nier’s Yoko Taro, which you might also know as the guy who wears a creepy moon on his head. Kazuya Tsurumaki, who directed the Rebuild films, will return to direct some episodes. Series creator Hideaki Anno is, unfortunately, not writing this story.
Right now, no one knows what story the series will tell. The franchise is notorious for retelling the same story over and over but with different endings. It’s unclear whether the upcoming series will do the same, tell an entirely new story, or pick up where the series left off.

Judging by their irreverent advertising as of late, Nothing wants to upstage Apple during the scheduled launch of the iPhone 17e. Specifically, the brand is launching the Nothing Phone (4a) a day after Apple’s event. Now, it looks like the wait got too long, even for the company itself. Ahead of the launch, Nothing has just revealed our first official look at the upcoming phone.
There is a lot riding on this phone. Earlier this year, Carl Pei confirmed that the brand will not launch the Phone (4) series this year. Instead, Nothing’s flagship spot for 2026 (or, at least, closest to it) will be reserved for the Phone (4a).
Like the previous years of the (a) series, the Phone (4a) is a notch below the flagship series but can still stand on its own. For one, it’s expected to launch with the latest Snapdragon 7 series chipset.
However, for the released photo, we got a look at the device’s rear. Like the Phone (3a), the Phone (4a) will have a center-aligned camera island.
Built different.

There is a bit more going on with the phone, though. The photo teases the new Glyph Bars, the latest iteration of Nothing’s iconic lighting system. There’s also the red square usually prevalent in the flagship series.
As for aesthetic, the Phone (4a) looks simpler than its predecessors. We’re still getting the faux machinery designs, but there’s less lines and angles. It looks the closest to the flagship series than any of its predecessors.
Thankfully, the wait for the reveal isn’t long. Nothing is scheduled to launch the series on March 5.
