Samsung Galaxy M30s review

The Galaxy M30s is somewhat different than the rest of its siblings in the family. It's the only model from the series being released worldwide as an Amazon exclusive handset whereas previously, the M-series consisted of phones manufactured in India for the local market. And with the M30s out in the wild, Samsung is risking the phone cannibalizing some of the A-series sales because at first glance, the handset offers more while asking less in return.
