    AneeshRavi, 15 Sep 2022Pls read the comment of a man who really uses the phone. In... moreI agree, this A13 has good features for its price. There are other phones costs the same and has lower hardware. The review did not mention one feature only Samsung devices have. It is Dolby Atmos and adaptive music output profile for you ear.
    The Cons in the review are not Cons, they are just feature or capability don't exist for the price. I can't comprehend people expect A13 price to have A23 or S series quality.

      As in the review, you will get the same damage if aluminium is used at this price. Nevertheless, the plastic is stronger than Galaxy S3, S4 and S5. The curved back is designed for the hand ergonomics, it comfortable to hold for a big phone. I would thought the review would have figured that out but they didn't.

      The Screen is surprisingly sharp and clear. The fingerprint reader is not fast, is definitely slower than my previous phone which is 0.2s

      Review is mistaken like everyone else about the auto-brightness. It is not auto-brightness. It is Adaptive Brightness. I have contacted Samsung and they have said, it works as expected. this is the way it is designed. The brightness only updates when you lock/unlock the screen. Normally you don't need more than 60hz. you will not see moving text. It is just like 4k monitors has 60hz. This device cannot run action games at 60fps to use 90hz panel. I don't see any ghosting any where in the games.
      There are some lag in the app switcher which is reported by the other Android 12 users. Some lag in the lockscreen notification. This is all software bugs, not the panel.

      All the notebookcheck GPU benchmark shows Mali G52mp1 is faster than powervr8320. For that reason A13 is an upgrade from A12. The powervr8320 is old, used in devices like Oppo 54s which costs the same as A13.

      The camera is excellent, although it doesn't have OIS as in A23. When not used often in photography it is a minor feature.

      The Redmi Note 11 is not the same price as A13, therefore cannot be compared. Redmi Note 11 is costs a lot more, almost the same as A23. Note 11 should be compared to A23. The both have same screen, chipset and RAM. The difference is the camera quality, in which A23 tends to be better.

          Pls read the comment of a man who really uses the phone. In my POV, the phone is another best budget phone I've seen. The phone's performance is pretty good such as when in gaming, the phone optimizes the phone's performance and give the user a good gaming experience. Secondly, the camera. The phone's camera is pretty good. I've taken pictures and record videos in the phone and the results is nice as it's very clear. Lastly, the battery. I think the phone's battery is the main highlight here. As it gives the user of the phone's experience for more than a day. But a single full charge gives me about 2 days to absolutely finishes the battery. So my conclusion is if you wanna buy a good battery phone with better performance, pls buy this phone. I absolutely recommend this phone

                    Leo, 26 Jul 2022I really like the phone , buh I don't know if I should... moreMy experience is better with the Nokia brand then Samsung

                    As a phone I think the Nokia g21 is the better phone then the Samsung phone

                    The Nokia phones have really good software support clean stock AndroidOne and big battery and excellent battery life power saver settings

                    For gaming neither is ideal a gaming phone from Nubia Lenovo or umidigi would be best even a old gaming phone would easily crash anything Nokia or Samsungs mid range phones if you can fit it in your budget

                    A minimum of 8gb ram is recommended for gaming and 128 storage

                    I think the 6gb Nokia g21 would be functional for gaming Nokia phones generally handle heat rather well and don't thottle easy often and are reliable

                    The stability in gaming should be better on Nokia then Samsung and the 720p screen on the Nokia is less demanding then the 1080p on the Samsung phone

                              Anonymous, 21 Jun 2022this site it's the bestAbsolutely GSMARENA rocks!!
                              I never buy a phone without doing my research here first!
                              Love the comparison feature.
                              Kind of wish I could compare 3 or 4 phones on same screen, but I can deal with it.

                              Occasionally , I have to go lookup other reviews to find out things like if phone has stereo speakers and stuff which sometimes gets overlooked or posted before specs are readily available.
                              So many phones are released, it's amazing they even manage to list them all.
                              Great job!

                                  awesome phone camera quality ultimate look awesome

                                    Why does the Samsung Galaxy A13 do not come with ear phones

                                      All this u guys are saying isn't true. How do except a phone of about #120000 here in Nigeria to have an extremely good specification. Let's be realistic guys. The phone is actually very good at the price. Samsung 💥
