Should Galaxy M31 look forward to it?

Taking rumors into consideration the Galaxy M31s will not be a massive upgrade over the Galaxy M31. The phone will have very minimal upgrades over the M31 in terms of screen, cameras, among others. So, it may not make a lot of sense to upgrade to the M31s if you are a Galaxy M31 user but for others, M31s could be a very good option to consider under Rs 20,000 price point.

In terms of pricing, the Samsung Galaxy M31s is expected to be priced under Rs 20,000 similar to the predecessor. Samsung will reveal the pricing on July 30.
