Samsung Galaxy M16 5G Overview
Design and Display
The Samsung Galaxy M16 features a more modern design with sharper, flatter edges, moving away from the rounded contours seen on the M15.

On the back, a vertically aligned pill-shaped camera module houses multiple sensors, accompanied by an LED flash unit placed outside the camera island.

Meanwhile, the notorious U-shaped notch from 8 years back is still here to stay. Other than that, the screen offers FHD+ resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, and up to 800 nits of HBM, making it ideal for media consumption and outdoor visibility.
