The Samsung Galaxy M12 is the company's next mid-range Android phone, and fresh certification listings have given us our first official-looking glimpse of what to expect. The handset (model number SM-M127F) has surfaced on two industry databases, confirming it is close to launch. Here is everything the leaks and listings reveal so far.
Samsung Galaxy M12 spotted on certification sites
The phone has appeared on both the Bluetooth SIG certification website and the Wi-Fi Alliance certification website. The listings reference model numbers SM-M12FG/DS and SM-F12G/DS, with SM-M12FG believed to be the Galaxy M12 itself.
91 Mobiles previously shared exclusive live pictures of the upcoming phone, and these new database entries add weight to those earlier reports. Samsung is positioning the device inside its Galaxy M-series lineup.
The most concrete detail to emerge comes from the Wi-Fi Alliance listing, which shows the device running Android 10 out of the box. Beyond that, neither certification revealed further hardware information.
Expected Samsung Galaxy M12 specifications
Earlier reports point to a few standout features, though Samsung has not confirmed them. Here is what has been mentioned so far:
- A 6.7-inch display with a hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera
- A large 7,000mAh battery
- Android 10 operating system
If the battery figure holds, it would match the 7,000mAh cell Samsung already used in the Galaxy M51.

Is the Galaxy F12 the same phone?
There is a strong chance the Galaxy F12 is simply a rebranded version of the Galaxy M12. Samsung's newer F-Series already follows this pattern: the affordable Galaxy F41 is a rebrand of the Galaxy M31. That precedent strongly suggests the Galaxy F12 could be a rebadged Galaxy M12.
