The Samsung Galaxy A13 has four cameras on the back: a 50MP (f/1.8) main camera, supported by a 5MP (f/2.2) ultrawide and a pair of 2MP macro and depth-sensing units.
When it comes to video part, the handset is capable of getting up to 1080p footage at 30 frames per second.
Samsung Galaxy A13 Performance Review
The Samsung Galaxy A13 has the Exynos 850 processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, which you can expand via a microSD card if necessary.
During daily use, some of the more demanding apps take a few attempts to lauch or do not launch at all and users should refrain from excessive multitasking, to prevent the performance from grinding to a halt.
Samsung Galaxy A13 Battery Life and Charging Review
The Galaxy A13 comes with a 5,000mAh capacity battery, and with a normal amount of use that’s going to last you a day and probably extends to two. The only sickening thing is the fact that it charges quite slow due to its 15W wired charging rate.
