  • Samsung Galaxy A35 5G

    The Galaxy A35 5G launched in India in March 2024 at Rs 30,999 for 8 GB/128 GB. Samsung gave it the Exynos 1380 from the previous year's A54, along with a glass back and the Key Island frame design. It effectively offered last year's A54 internals in a fresher body at a lower price.

    The 6.6-inch Super AMOLED panel now has a punch-hole cutout instead of a notch, with 120Hz refresh and good brightness. Gorilla Glass Victus+ front and back give it a premium feel, though the frame is plastic and the phone is fairly heavy at 209 g. Exynos 1380 is smooth for daily tasks and moderate gaming, but rivals like the Nothing Phone (2a) and Poco X6 Pro were faster.

    Cameras are a 50 MP main with OIS, 8 MP ultrawide and 5 MP macro, producing reliable, slightly bright results. The 5000 mAh battery lasts well, while 25W charging remains sluggish. IP67, stereo speakers, Samsung Knox security and four years of OS upgrades round out a package aimed at buyers who value build and support over benchmarks.

  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra

    The Galaxy S25 Ultra went on sale in India in early 2025 after a January launch, priced at Rs 1,29,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. It kept the Ultra recipe of a built-in S Pen, titanium frame and four rear cameras, but softened the design with rounded corners and a slightly larger 6.9-inch display that is easier to hold than the boxy S24 Ultra.

    The QHD+ screen keeps Gorilla Armor 2 with anti-reflective coating, which remains one of the best outdoor displays on any phone. Weight drops to 218 g, a meaningful change for an Ultra. The Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy is fast and efficient, and Samsung removed Bluetooth Air Actions from the S Pen, a small loss for people who used it as a remote.

    The ultrawide camera jumps to 50 MP, joining the 200 MP main, 10 MP 3x and 50 MP 5x telephotos. Battery stays at 5000 mAh with 45W charging, but endurance is excellent. Rivals such as the Vivo X200 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max matched or beat it in some camera tests, yet nothing else combines a stylus, this zoom range and seven years of updates.

  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge

    Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 Edge in India in May 2025 at Rs 1,09,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. It is a design-first phone: a titanium frame just 5.8 mm thick and a weight of 163 g, despite carrying a 6.7-inch QHD+ display. It sits between the S25+ and S25 Ultra in price, which made its value case harder than its looks.

    Picking it up is the selling point. It feels lighter than the smaller S25 in some hands and slips into pockets that the Ultra strains. The screen is a sharp 1440 x 3120 panel with a 120Hz adaptive rate, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy delivers the same speed as the other S25 models, although sustained gaming makes the thin body warm.

    To get so slim Samsung cut the telephoto, leaving a 200 MP main and 12 MP ultrawide. The 200 MP sensor's crop handles 2x well, but it cannot match the zoom of the cheaper S25. The 3900 mAh battery and 25W charging are the clear compromises, and heavy users will need a top-up by evening. Its closest rival in concept was the later iPhone Air, not the regular flagships.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5

    Samsung's fifth-generation book-style foldable reached India in July 2023 at Rs 1,54,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. Its headline change was the new Flex hinge, which lets the phone close flat with no wedge-shaped gap, making it slimmer when folded and less prone to collecting grit. It launched against the first wave of serious foldable competition in India.

    Open, you get a 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner screen with a less visible crease than before; closed, a narrow 6.2-inch cover display. The narrow outer screen remained the main complaint, especially next to wider rivals like the Pixel Fold and OnePlus Open. Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy provides smooth multitasking, and Samsung's taskbar and three-app split view are the most mature foldable software of the time.

    Cameras are a 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 10 MP 3x telephoto, solid but behind the Galaxy S23 Ultra. A 4400 mAh battery and 25W charging feel conservative for the price. IPX8 water resistance, S Pen Fold Edition support and a polished app experience are its strengths, while the OnePlus Open, arriving months later, beat it on cameras and charging speed.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5

    Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip5 in India in July 2023 at Rs 99,999 for 8 GB/256 GB. After years of a tiny notification strip, the Flip5 brought a 3.4-inch Flex Window on the outside, large enough for widgets, quick replies, maps and even full apps through Samsung's Labs setting. The Motorola Razr 40 Ultra had a bigger cover screen, setting up a direct contest.

    The new hinge closes flat with no gap, and the 187 g phone feels dense and well made. Inside is a 6.7-inch 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a crease you notice mainly at angles. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy keeps everything fast, and Flex Mode lets the half-folded phone act as its own tripod for video calls and time-lapses.

    There is no telephoto: you get a 12 MP main and 12 MP ultrawide, with a 10 MP inner selfie camera, though the cover screen lets you use the main camera for selfies too. The 3700 mAh battery is the weak spot and heavy users will need to charge by evening, with only 25W wired support. For style and compactness, few phones of its time matched it.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6

    The Galaxy Z Fold6 launched in India in July 2024 at Rs 1,64,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. Samsung refined rather than reinvented, making it lighter at 239 g, slightly squarer with sharper corners, and a little wider on the outside with a 6.3-inch cover display. Galaxy AI features like Note Assist, interpreter mode and Sketch to Image were heavily promoted.

    The 7.6-inch inner panel is brighter and its crease is a bit less pronounced than on the Fold5. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy with a larger vapour chamber improves sustained performance for gaming and multitasking. Samsung also raised protection to IP48, which adds some resistance against larger dust particles, though fine sand remains a concern.

    Cameras are unchanged from the Fold5: 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 10 MP 3x telephoto. The 4400 mAh battery and 25W charging also carry over, an area where the OnePlus Open and Vivo X Fold3 Pro were clearly ahead with bigger cells and faster charging. Where the Fold6 wins is software polish, accessory support and the update promise of seven years.

  • Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6

    Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip6 in India in July 2024 at Rs 1,09,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. The design looks nearly identical to the Flip5 from a distance, with the same 3.4-inch Flex Window, but the meaningful changes are inside: a bigger battery, more RAM, a vapour chamber and a much better main camera.

    The 6.7-inch inner screen is brighter and the crease a little shallower, while the flatter frame gives it a more modern look. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy with the new cooling solution means less throttling than the Flip5. The cover screen now gets AI-suggested replies and more widgets, and IP48 adds basic dust resistance on top of water protection.

    A 50 MP main sensor replaces the old 12 MP unit, producing sharper photos and better 2x crops, with a 12 MP ultrawide alongside. The 4000 mAh battery finally gives most users a full day, although 25W charging is still slow. The Motorola Razr 50 Ultra offered a larger outer screen and faster charging, so the choice came down to software support versus hardware value.

  • Samsung Galaxy S24+

    The Galaxy S24+ launched in India in January 2024 at Rs 99,999 for 12 GB RAM and 256 GB storage. Like the base model, it used the Exynos 2400 in India. It is the phone for people who want a big screen and big battery but have no use for the Ultra's S Pen, 200 MP sensor or premium price.

    This year the Plus received a meaningful display upgrade to 1440 x 3120 resolution on a 6.7-inch LTPO panel, matching the Ultra's sharpness on a flat screen with rounded corners. The flat aluminium frame and 196 g weight make it far easier to hold than the Ultra. Performance is strong across apps and games, with more RAM than the base S24.

    Cameras mirror the S24, with a 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 10 MP 3x telephoto. The 4900 mAh battery and 45W charging give it better endurance and faster top-ups than its smaller sibling. Its awkward middle position was the main criticism: the OnePlus 12 cost far less, and the Ultra was only a step away for buyers already spending close to a lakh.

  • Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra

    Samsung's Galaxy S24 Ultra landed in India in January 2024 at Rs 1,29,999 for 12 GB/256 GB. Unlike the S24 and S24+, every Ultra worldwide used the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy, which was a relief for Indian enthusiasts. It also debuted Galaxy AI features such as Circle to Search, Live Translate and Generative Edit.

    The frame switched from aluminium to titanium, and the 6.8-inch QHD+ panel is finally flat, which helps S Pen use and reduces accidental touches. Corning's Gorilla Armor glass has an anti-reflective coating that makes the screen noticeably easier to read outdoors. At 232 g it remains a heavy phone, but the squared-off design is more balanced than before.

    Samsung replaced the 10x telephoto with a 50 MP 5x lens, betting that sensor cropping would hold up at 10x. Results at 5x are excellent, and 10x stays good in daylight, while the 200 MP main and 12 MP ultrawide carry over. Battery life from the 5000 mAh cell is superb. Against the iPhone 15 Pro Max it offers the pen and more zoom flexibility, but charging is still 45W.

  • Samsung Galaxy S24 FE

    Samsung brought the Galaxy S24 FE to India in October 2024 at Rs 59,999 for 8 GB/128 GB. It runs the Exynos 2400e, a slightly lower-clocked version of the chip in the Indian S24, which is a big step up from the Exynos 2200 in the S23 FE. Samsung also extended its seven-year update promise to this model, along with most Galaxy AI features.

    The display grew to 6.7 inches, making it larger than the regular S24, with a 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel at 1080 x 2340. Bezels are thicker than on the main S series, and the 213 g weight is noticeable. Day-to-day performance is smooth and thermals are better controlled than on its predecessor, though it still warms up in long gaming sessions.

    The camera trio is familiar: 50 MP main, 12 MP ultrawide and 8 MP 3x telephoto, with a 10 MP selfie camera. Battery rises to 4700 mAh and lasts a full day comfortably, but 25W charging feels dated next to the OnePlus 12R and Pixel 8a era competition. IP68 and wireless charging remain its strongest arguments in this price band.
