Samsung Galaxy M30 Pie Update, Android Q Update, And Timeline

Samsung has been very competitive in the flagship pricing till 2018 and hadn’t concentrated on the budget phones till the start of 2019. Samsung just shook the market with its new M and A series especially with the A8s which had a punch hole display. While the M Series was made especially for the Indian Users, it wasn’t launched with Android 9 Pie onboard, and this made all the users unhappy. While Samsung has started rolling out OTA updates to fix the issues, we have also started this series of timeline updates to help you figure out all the details of the latest updates.

The Galaxy M30 is the best phone of this series yet with a 6.4 inch 1080 x 2340 px Display with an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. The phone comes with an Octa-Core Exynos 7904 clocked at 1.8Ghz. The phone has a 13+5+5MP Triple camera setup on the back and a 16MP front-facing selfie shooter. The phone comes with a 5000mAH battery to support its backend with a Samsung Adaptive fast charger. The phone doesn’t feel laggy. Also, the phone has a super fast rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Samsung Galaxy M30 Pie Update:

The Samsung Galaxy M30 has started to receive the Android 90 Pie Update with OneUI on top and this is a piece of good news for all the users, but it is delayed a lot, we couldn’t expect from Samsung to provide the update so late.

Samsung Galaxy M30 Android 10 Q Update:

The Galaxy M30 has just received Pie Update, and we cant hope from Samsung to provide two continuous major updates to its budget devices, mainly made for Indian users. But as it is priced near 20,000 INR Samsung must continuously update the device to make it a complete package for the users. The Chance of the Galaxy M30 getting the Android Q Update is 50%, and we do expect Samsung to do so. Also if Samsung plans to give the M30 Android Q update, most probably it would arrive in the Q4 of 2020. We will update the article as soon as Samsung updates the device to Android Q or if there are any official words on that.
