Samsung Galaxy M30s review: how long does the battery last?
Plastic body, fingerprint reader on the back and overall low thickness for this Galaxy M30s, which comes up with a SuperAMOLED display gives 6,4 pixels. The yield is what the Korean company has accustomed us to for some time now: excellent brightness, bright colors and even the possibility of choosing between two different settings according to your tastes.
But what I would like to focus on is the performance. Before getting my hands on this Samsung Galaxy M30s I used Galaxy Note 10+ for months, a real top of the range with excellent performance in any situation. The transition from Samsung's flagship phone to a medium range was not exactly painless, at least for the first 24 hours. And then? Well, you get used to it later. Of course, the apps do not open as quickly and compared to a top of the range you will have some micro-slowdowns, but in the end all this will seem normal to you, especially because there is nothing you cannot do with this M30s. The Exynos 9611 processor and 4 GB of RAM allow you to surf, play, use social networks or text with friends in complete peace of mind.
To this you must then add the 6.000 mAh of the batteries. There are two reasons why you will particularly appreciate it: autonomy and "optimization". I, who squeeze any smartphone, managed to cover a whole day without problem, arriving late at night with 15% still available. With less intensive use you will cover two days without major problems. Autonomy is therefore undoubtedly promoted and the advantage is evident: you will be free from anxieties and the weight of the power bank.
The second reason is related to the optimization work done by Samsung in terms of design. Despite the huge battery, Galaxy M30s boasts a limited thickness, excellent ergonomics and a weight that remains well below 200 grams.

And the camera?
The back cover hosts three cameras: the main 48 megapixel sensor, an 8 megapixel sensor and a 5 megapixel sensor for depth. Obviously you shouldn't expect a performance similar to that of the top of the range, but in reality you will be pleasantly surprised by the rendering of this triptych, capable of giving excellent shots even when the light begins to drop.
Instead, the 16 megapixel front camera is normal, while the videos, which reach 4K at 30 fps, did not particularly impress us.

On balance, Samsung Galaxy M30s I really liked it. In fact, you won't have to make big compromises to have a really huge battery. With 259 € you take home a device with a good display, a complete photographic sector and the always appreciated One UI from Samsung.
