Galaxy M10 – Samsung’s answer to Xiaomi

Samsung introduced the Galaxy M series to tackle Xiaomi in India. The Indian smartphone users are intelligent when it comes to choosing a smartphone. Indian milennials look for “Value” rather then focusing on the brand. What Samsung offered them for $500, Xiaomi offered them for $250. This helped Xiaomi to become India’s top smartphone brand.

Since the Indian market has a major share in the global smartphone rankings, it seemed more likely that Samsung will lose its top spot in the global charts soon. Samsung did realize this and decided to launch the Galaxy M series, purely built for the millennials. The Galaxy M series handsets included the Galaxy M10 and the Galaxy M20. The Galaxy M20 is the superior variant here while the Galaxy M10 is low-end.
