In this post, we will consider the budget phone M32 from Samsung. Let’s look at its characteristics and try to understand whether it is worth the money.
In the present, not the easiest time, a telephone was needed, as his native Chinese ordered to live long. He faithfully served his time and naturally broke down at the wrong time. The repair did not give proper results and was able to extend his life by only a month. Therefore, I decided that enough torturing him and you need to buy a new one.
Choice
Naturally, at first I wanted to purchase a similar Chinese, but after monitoring the prices, I realized that I could afford to consider a more eminent brand. So my attention was attracted by a phone from Samsung. Two models of the M and A series fit my budget. A little climbing on the Internet, I came to the conclusion that these two models are almost identical. They differ slightly in camera units, the A series has better video stabilization, but since the A series is slightly more expensive, I decided to buy myself a Samsung M32. It will be discussed below.
Package
The phone is packed in a beautiful white box. The phone itself is depicted on the front side, the name Galaxy M32 is modestly written on the side. Below is a sticker with brief information about the model, color, production date and the manufacturer itself.
Equipment
The kit includes:
- telephone
- charger
- information brochures

Appearance
Externally, the phone looks beautiful. Nice back panel with pretty stripes and a not-so-pretty sticker that’s hard to peel off.
On the left side there is a compartment for two SIM cards and a memory card.
On the right side is the lock button and volume control.
There is a microphone at the top and bottom, as well as a Type-C charging socket, a speaker and a headphone jack at the bottom.
The screen is quite large and bright. There are minimal gaps on the top and sides, an impressive black stripe on the bottom.
Charging is normal, not very powerful, the wire is short.
Work
In the use of complaints, I have not identified. The usual average phone, in which everything works at a sufficient level. Surfing sites without brakes at the moment. The video shows without failures, the sound is decent. A speaker for a disco, of course, is not suitable, but you can watch a clip or a movie if you don’t have headphones at all.
The interface is standard for Samsung, on most of the equipment it is practically the same, you should not get confused.
Games
The smartphone is not particularly strong, but I think it will be enough for games, at least I didn’t have any problems.
Not particularly demanding games and more serious ones went quite well. Above are screenshots of a Hidden Object Toy, and below are screenshots of PUBG Mobile. I installed it exclusively for review, I don’t understand much in games, but there were no brakes, freezes, or overheating. He clapped for about half an hour, they killed me, deleted me, not my toy.
In general, I think any games will work, but I’m an Old Believer and I think that you need to play such games on a PC, tablet, laptop, on anything, but not on a phone, I specifically don’t like it. The maximum is to put something in order to kill time somewhere in the queue. And this kind of games will be on the calculator.
A photo
It is necessary to pay attention to the convex chamber block, without a cover it will quickly come to an end. At least, the convex parts do not live for a long time, they are overwritten.
The photos come out pretty nice and clear. Everything was bad on my Chinese. Sometimes you notice that the phone takes pictures more beautiful than it actually is. The colors are more saturated.
Tests
Below I have given screenshots of some tests that I conducted on this phone. As you can see, he doesn’t shine with anything and doesn’t strive for tops, but the results are pretty good.

Outcome
Very good phone for your money. I think, of course, they threw a decent amount for the Samsung brand, but I want to believe that this money was not thrown away in vain, and it will last a long time and without breakdowns. There is a version for 4/64 GB of memory in the line, but I basically didn’t consider it, because I’m sure that you shouldn’t take less than 128. In the modern world, this is not a lot anyway, and considering how many instant messengers are now littering, 64 will not be enough for a long time. The striped back panel began to annoy over time, since there are covers that are opaque. In general, I am satisfied with the purchase, at the moment I can advise.
