The Samsung Galaxy M35 5G boasts a sleek, modern design that perfectly balances style and functionality. Encasing the body is a smooth matte finish on the back which offers a premium feel without being a fingerprint magnet. Having said that, we would like to add here that the phone’s grip is not as secure as you expect it to be

On the right edge are the power button and volume rockers while the left side houses the SIM card tray at the top. You’ll find a USB Type-C charging port at the bottom along with a microphone and speaker grill. There’s another microphone on the top.

The rear panel showcases a smooth matte finish that shines in daylight giving it a premium look. The triple-camera setup is aligned vertically accompanied by an LED flash adding to the phone’s sophisticated aesthetics.

However there is no IP rating for the smartphone.

The Galaxy M35 sports a 6.6-inch FHD+ Infinity-O Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1000 nits of peak brightness. The display is vibrant, delivering sharp and accurate colors.

The 120Hz refresh rate ensures buttery-smooth scrolling and fluid animations, enhancing the overall user experience. Bezels on the phone are thinner but noticeable. Whether indoors or outdoors the display excels with its high brightness levels and adaptive technology ensuring excellent visibility under all lighting conditions.

One thing we liked about the Galaxy M35 5G is that Samsung has added a layer of Gorilla Glass Victus+ that protects the screen from scratches and minor impacts. The display also supports Eye Comfort mode reducing blue light exposure which is ideal for extended use.

Its wide viewing angles make it perfect for binge-watching and gaming sessions. Overall the display is a standout feature for its price range.

The Galaxy M35 is powered by the Exynos 1380 SoC chipset paired with up to 8GB of RAM and offers up to 256GB of internal storage expandable via a microSD card.

The phone handles multitasking seamlessly with no noticeable lag even when switching between heavy apps or running multiple browser tabs. It handles casual gaming smoothly but struggles with performance and heating during graphics-intensive sessions. When tested with apps like image editors it performed adequately, making it a dependable choice for content creators seeking reliable functionality

The device includes a single bottom-firing speaker that delivers decent but unimpressive audio however the sound quality improves significantly when using headphones.

The Samsung Galaxy M35 5G runs One UI 6.0 layered over Android 14, delivering a refined and intuitive user experience. For an existing Samsung user One UI will look familiar with its design easy navigation and thoughtful features tailored for both productivity and convenience. The OS introduces smoother animations

Features like Edge Panels, One-Handed Mode and a customizable home screen let you personalize your device to match your preferences. However the presence of pre-installed apps may not be liked by many.

Samsung commits to four years of software updates and five years of security patches to keep it fresh and relevant for years to come.
