Itun, 20 Mar 2023This phone is def an upgrade from my old A10e, it has a bet... moreYesss, I knew I wasn't the only one going from A10e to A13 5g. I saw many negative reviews about this phone and was getting worried. Thank you for renewing my hope in it.

It's a terrible phone, the worst i owned and my last android was 10 years ago a cheap samsung mini 2: still the samsung A13 5G is a downgrade. I guess it's well deserved for people looking to have a 5G phone, which is needless and not my case. Im not sure what is worst, android 12 or the phone itself: there's no light sensor, i highly doubt there is any other sensors besides a poorly working proximity sensor. This means the camara doesn't work properly and screen brightness doesn't automatically adapt. It adapts at random, so you can't step outside in daytime without manually adjusting brightness beforehand. Talking about the camara...it has a lot of megapixels, which only means photos are bad AND take a lot of space, so slow loading and other issues. The camara is useless in less bright conditions. There's no radio, it takes a long time to charge and because the software is so poorly coded, the battery doesn't last much. Its antennas for 4G and 5G (if you happen to actually have any in your neighbourhood), are very limited. But hell, you can barely hear people talking, specially if they are using an iphone, it seems. I suppose the volume filters work in opposite directions, meaning one keeps talking louder and the phones keep cutting the voice volume to lower. Also, the sound seems to be coming out the back of the phone more than top front. The actual speaker and charging and headphones plugs are at the bottom - which is unhandy. The whole case is poorly designed, the phone is too big and too long specially...it's impossible to write two sentences without staining your hands, in any position. Also your eyes: you can't type without looking at the keyboard because it's not well placed and because the accuracy of it/spacing of keys and the "auto-writing" is very bad. Word suggestions mix languages (which i rarely use) and verb tenses weren't included. Still after 6 months it replaces words constantly with wrong ones, doesn't respond with suggestions or corrections when obviously theres a typo,...But i suppose this is a fault in android itself. Feels like they issue a buggy version to phones considered "entry level" or well...cheap - is 200 bucks cheap? I miss my windows nokia terribly. And don't be fooled people: MORE LENSES MEANS A BAD CAMERA. The phone doesn't focus automatically, you have to change camara "mode", move the phone physically back and forth and it's never sure the photo will be sharp focused (the screen is not that clear, it's only 270dpi definition anyway). The phones heats when charging even with a slow charger, and the plastic and the hyper reflecting screen glass always feel and look dirty. It's not like a more expensive phone would be better, android software is laggy, buggy, so poorly designed that you know it's not meant to work effectively or making your life easier, it's meant to waste our time. In all, samsung A136 is a pain to use.

I got it to Android 13 and OneUI 5.0 and it just became slow as all hecc, don't make that same mistake, because I'm getting something else now and I'm really happy that I'm for the most part not going to have to use this anymore, I'll have it but its not gonna be my main phone, overall, screen size? Alright, the camera processor is literal crap, S9 beats it, PLS LCD 60hz refresh is kinda alright, the ram is eh, and the battery is awesome, wish it was thinner like the old a10 series.

Been using this phone for 4 months. Many apps launch slowly. The screen is ******* too big. It doesn't even have the power to do anything decent with the big screen so there is no point. Its just a big battery that runs android 13. I hope i am never in an emergency with this phone because even simple task as turning on display lags, add background apps and you can count to 3 before it turns on...

This phone is def an upgrade from my old A10e, it has a better battery, better screen, more RAM, and others, but the A10e had shorter bezels, and this camera looks like it takes worse photos than my A10e, even though its branded as 50 megapixels. Also if its saying it can only run Android 12 and OneUI 4.1 then why is mine running Android 13 and OneUI 5.0?

Itun, 14 Feb 2023This phone is definitely an upgrade from my A10e, I was mai... moreDefinitely !! This is the successor of the successor of the a10e. I had one and this phone is on a different level than the a10e. It even has a pls lcd 90hz panel instead of a shifty tft one. Mine just got one ui 5.0 android 13 and it's very stable. For a person who wants One UI, big 90hz screen, huge battery, 4gb ram, 64gb storage and micro SD expansion then this is perfect for you! I paid 65 for a unlocked version. Ebay rulz!!!

Do not buy this phone or even get it for free. I'd say it's an ok disposable use phone. The camera doesn't work at all. It can't take photos or vids. They come out so awful and grainy like no cellphone I've ever had an I go way back. Look at the comments on YT vids. Everyone hates this phone.

Nemo, 31 Jan 2023Quick question
This phone is good for hotspot . Does it... moreYes
Plus, it also has a 90hz panel and 4gb of ram. You can actually play call of duty and pubg without any hiccups but be careful with the settings. I bought one of these for a extra on ebay for 75 dollars.
