Samsung Galaxy F62

The Samsung Galaxy F62 brings to the mid-range segment a flagship SoC and a kind of battery life that is only been seen in the M-series. We note that the Samsung Galaxy F62 has decent performance, going toe-to-toe with the best in the segment like the OnePlus Nord, with the battery life of almost two days giving it an edge over the existing competition. Where the Samsung Galaxy F62 skims out on segment-standard features is a high refresh rate display and the lack of HDR certification. It also comes with only a mono speaker, so using earphones or headphones while consuming content on the phone is highly recommended.
