Highlights
Like many readers, you may be wondering what is the difference between Samsung Galaxy M34 and the Galaxy F34. Let us make it easy for you by saying there is none. They are essentially the same smartphone, but named differently. Only Samsung can say why this is the case. If you desperately need some differences, well, their model names and codes, colors and the release dates are different.
The Galaxy F34 has become more popular in the Bangladesh market. Again, we have no suggestion why. Perhaps the A and M series are more common than the F series and so, the F34 fits better in the space of the liking psychology. It could also be the colors. Whatever that is, if you like the M34 colors better or the letter M, you can pick this one. But let us discuss some of its features as well. Most of the reviewers criticized its design, including us. But sometimes, you just can’t have it all and especially with Samsung, it’s very often the case. It gives you a massive 6000 mAh battery, but then a lower 25W charging facility and the charger also doesn’t come in the box. You have to pay a good amount of extra money to purchase it. For us, it’s not fair at all, especially on a mid-range phone.
But what are some nice things? Take the cameras. Both front and back cameras are very impressive when it comes to vibrant colors, proper details, portrait mode and so on. You’ll get EIS with the primary camera for up to 1080p video recording. However, you can also record 4K videos without any stabilization. The performance is reasonably well with the 5 nm Exynos 1280 chipset and you’ll get 5G support. Then Android 13 was installed and Samsung promised 4 and 5 years of OS and security updates, respectively. That’s a huge deal, especially at this price. Also, the Samsung Super AMOLED screen is great. There is no HDR support, but there is Widevine L1 support for fine quality HD streaming.
