Samsung Galaxy M42 to become the first 5G smartphone in the series

Back in November, we came across several certification listings for Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy M42 which confirmed a 6,000 mAh battery. Now the same device bearing the SM-M426B/DS model number was spotted in a Wi-Fi Alliance listing.

The model number in particular is significant as past international versions of 5G Samsung devices have all sported the B/DS marking which means the M42 will also be a 5G phone. Actually, this will be the first 5G member in the Galaxy M series.

Android 11 confrimation

The listing itself does not give out any additional spec details for the M42 apart from it having dual-mode Wi-Fi connectivity. We also get confirmation that the phone will boot Android 11 out the box.
