After weeks of leaks and rumors, Samsung has finally introduced its new M series smartphone in India. The new Galaxy M42 offers 5G connectivity support at affordable pricing. It is worth mentioning that the company launched it as a rebranded version of the Galaxy A42 5G, which was unveiled last year in select countries.

Surprisingly, the South Korean tech giant priced the Galaxy M42 5G at just INR 21,999, which makes it the most affordable 5G offering from the brand. It will be available for pre-order through Amazon.in from May 1, 2021. However, the company is also offering a cashback of INR 2,000 (around $27) while purchasing via HDFC Bank credit and debit cards.

Samsung Galaxy M42 5G comes with a 6.6″ Infinity-U sAMOLED display with HD+ resolution. For biometric authentication, it features an in-display fingerprint sensor. Under the hood, it equips Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 750G processor supported by 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

Talking about optics, the Galaxy M42 5G has a quad-rear camera setup in a squarish-shaped design. The camera specs include a 48MP primary lens, 8MP ultrawide camera, a 5MP depth camera, and a 5MP macro camera, plus it has a 20MP camera on the front for selfies. Furthermore, it can record 4K 30fps videos using both rear and front cameras.

Additional specs include GPS, Wi-Fi b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0, USB Type-C port, dual sim port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It packs a large 5,000mAh battery with up to 15W fast charging support. Just like premium phones, the Galaxy M42 also features Samsung Knox security, Samsung Pay and Secure Folder. Lastly, it will be available in two color options: Prism Dot Black and Prism Dot Grey.

Google Messages adds waveforms to Voice Recorder UI

Samsung Phone September 2023 update One UI 6

Google Messages is getting a new look for its voice recorder UI. The microphone icon in the text field will change to a waveform icon, which is different from the voice typing button in Gboard.

Instead of holding down the mic to record, you will now see a panel with a start/stop button and options to cancel, delete, or attach the recording. You will also see a waveform and a timer while recording, and you can play back the recording before sending it.

The voice messages preview will also show a waveform between the play/pause button and the timer, making it more noticeable than the current straight line.

These changes are not widely available yet, but some users have reported seeing them on their phones. These new changes are part of a bigger redesign that Google is working on for Messages, which includes a revamped home screen that is still in beta testing. Google might announce new features soon.
