Two Galaxy phones that will be up for preorder in Spain starting tomorrow, October 18, will be launched in the Philippines, too.

(Update, November 5: We finally have the prices of the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G and Galaxy M22 in the Philippines!)

The Samsung Galaxy M52 5G and Samsung Galaxy M22 are already listed on the local site of the Korean manufacturer. We spotted the 8GB/128GB version of the 5G-ready phone in the Shop section of the website the other day, but had to work on some personal matters that we forgot about it. Understand, though, that you still can’t buy the M52, but it should be available for purchase at any time now. You can choose to get the black, blue, or white color variant.

The M22 is not at Samsung‘s online store yet, but its support page, complete with a manual, has already gone live. We saw only those with model numbers SM-M225FLBHXTC and SM-M225FZKHXTC there, so it seems that only two colors will be released in the Philippines. In case you didn’t know, the Galaxy M22 is available in light blue, black, and white. Additionally, the unit can be seen on the list of DITO-compatible handsets (next to the A52s 5G).

The Samsung Galaxy M52 5G boasts a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G, the same chip that powers smartphones such as the Realme GT Master Edition, Motorola Edge 20 Fusion, and Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE. The M52 also counts its 6.7-inch, 120Hz Super AMOLED Infinity-O display; 64-megapixel triple rear camera; and 5,000mAh battery as its key highlights. In Spain where gadgets are more expensive, its regular price is €449 (roughly P26,411 or $521).

The Samsung Galaxy M22, on the other hand, lists its 6.4-inch, 90Hz Super AMOLED Infinity-U display; 48-megapixel quad camera on the back; and 5,000mAh battery as its main features. In Spain, the device is retailing for €259 (P15,235 or $300).
