The Galaxy M12 was quietly launched in Vietnam last month, and then Samsung had started teasing the launch of the mid-range smartphone for the Indian market. Today, the company has finally launched the Galaxy M12 in India. The new affordable smartphone comes in two storage configurations and three color variants.
The Galaxy M12 is priced at INR 10,000 for the 4GB + 64GB variant, while the 6GB + 128GB variant is priced at INR 13,499.

It will be available in three colors: Attractive Black, Elegant Blue, and Trendy Emerald Green.
Samsung has equipped the Galaxy M12 with a 6.5-inch IPS LCD Infinity-V display with HD+ resolution. The V-shaped notch accommodates the phone's 8MP selfie camera.
