Galaxy F36 5G review: A Flipkart-exclusive 5G mid with OIS and six years of updates.
The M36, by another name.
Galaxy F36 5G is Samsung's online-only twin formula again — the same 120 Hz AMOLED, OIS and six-year update floor as its M-series sibling, badged for Flipkart. The dated Exynos and slow charging are the costs. The only buying question is which storefront is cheaper at launch.
