#MonsterReloaded: An unbeatable combo of 90Hz refresh rate display, 8nm Exynos 850 processor, True 48MP Quad Camera and a 6000mAh battery

After defeating 12 celebrities with ease, the #MonsterReloaded challenge has finally ended with a thunderous roar coming from Samsung’s camp. And in case you weren’t following up, here’s a small refresher for you - the internet was divided into two parts, one rooting for the 12 awesome celebrities who were in pursuit to exhaust the monstrous 6000mAh battery of Galaxy M12 powered by 8nm Exynos 850 processor. At the same time, the other camp being realist, understood the smartphone’s battery potential and were rooting for the Galaxy M12 to win it all. And, as expected, Team 12 was unable to drain the 6000mAh battery of the Samsung Galaxy M12 & gave up. The smartphone survived the wrath of 12 celebrities to be the rightful winner of the #MonsterReloaded challenge.


Actor Sarah Jane Dais kickstarted the challenge with 100% battery left on the smartphone. But after trying really hard to exhaust the battery, she gave up & asked the hunker Angad Bedi to continue with the challenge. Even Angad Bedi failed to keep up with the battery performance of Galaxy M12 and passed the baton to actor Sayani Gupta who tried her luck with the device, eventually giving it to cricketer Varun Sood. Now, Varun managed to drain the device, but by the time he gave in, the smartphone showed 74%!!!

What’s interesting about the challenge was every celebrity was using the device to its max, be it doubling down on the smartphone’s True 48MP Quad Camera or the impressive 90Hz refresh rate screen or gaming performance courtesy of 8nm Exynos 850 processor.

Then it was actor Shriya Pilgaonkar’s turn to turn up the heat in the #MonsterReloaded challenge. Even she failed to keep up with the Galaxy M12’s battery & similar was the case with actor Amyra Dastur. By the time actor, Sumeet Vyas had the device with him, the smartphone was already showing 59%, giving the long list of celebs some sigh of relief that they can defeat the device. But, the Galaxy M12 is called the Monster Reloaded for a reason. And the reason was put to the test by the next suite of celebrities.

Finally, the mighty Amit Sadh managed to bring the battery down to 08%, but even his efforts fell short of taking down the Galaxy M12.


With the challenge now over, we get to see the smartphone in the flesh and finally understand why it is called the #MonsterReloaded.

Firstly, there’s the gorgeous buttery smooth 90Hz refresh rate display...

...which compels you to use the device more than ever. On the front of the device, you get to see a massive 6.5” HD+ Infinity-V display which, when paired with the 90Hz refresh rate, gets you an experience like no other. Be it scrolling endlessly on social media or enjoying a binge session of your favourite series, or playing non-stop, the Galaxy M12 justifies its worth.

Then there’s the 8nm Exynos 850 Processor...

...which makes the experience of using the smartphone a breezy affair. Unlike any competition smartphones, which are usually poised with an 11nm processor, the Galaxy M12 has a sleek and power-efficient, 8nm Exynos 850 processor that helps you carry out your everyday tasks with ease without compromising on battery performance.

Then there’s the True 48MP Quad Camera...

…which lets you capture the world in a completely new light. The primary camera on this smartphone is a True 48MP sensor which is paired with an 8MP Ultrawide sensor & a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP macro sensor. With the impeccable True 48MP Quad Camera with an ISOCELL GM2 sensor, you’ll get clarity and detail like never before. The true resolution, unlike a normal resolution, promises a much more consistent, precise and clear output of all our images and videos. And for those epic moments, you can always rely on the 8MP front-facing camera for some jaw-dropping selfies.

Finally, there’s the 6000mAh battery...

… which is the USP of Galaxy M12. However, there’s a lot more under the hood that this bad-boy packs. For instance, when you somehow manage to drain the battery & want to juice up quickly, then the 15W Type-C Fast Charger that comes in the box, will help you do it with ease. Having said this, the Galaxy M12 is a complete banger of a device, considering the price.

Ah! The price...
… of the Galaxy M12 is what makes it a serious contender to rule the budget-segment of smartphones. Priced at Rs.10,999 for the 4GB RAM+64GB internal storage & Rs.13,499 for the 6GB RAM+128GB internal storage variant, the Galaxy M12 is an absolute bang for the buck. The smartphone has support for Dolby ATMOS when you listen to music via your headphones. And to make your streaming experience more enjoyable, the Galaxy M12 has Widevine L1 Certification to allow you to stream content in HD. Out of the box, the Galaxy M12 runs on OneUI Core based on the latest version of Android 11. The device has a super-fast Face Unlock, and for a more efficient & secure way to unlock the smartphone, there’s a dedicated side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
