Samsung Galaxy A13 in 2023: Still Worth Buying?

[@duskomeljineduskomeljine842]

I have this phone and it's superb!💙💪

[@tim6484]

I've been using this phone for around two months now, and it's decent at its best. The battery is AMAZING, but playing a casual game will get the device really hot. Its alright in terms of fastness, and the camera is also amazing.

True

[@hunghoangmusic]

how's the battery holding up until now may I ask? Does it still hold up for an entire day of constant playing games without charging? thanks

[@henrywestridge7298]

I bought one and 1. It didn't have a charger>How will I charge it? 2. The C-C cord it came with has one defective end.

i may consider this if it is sold for at least 50% off and 4/128GB variant.

[@michaellawrence7570]

I'll stick to my a13 4g

[@rob12841]

I’ve got NFC on this phone. UK version with mediatek mt6769t chip

[@JAMESSMITH-gr6ko]

It doesn't pick up XFINITY hotspots where my other phone does.

[@Kapteinpro]

bro the system took 28gb

[@raijinrasetsuii8820]

why buy this when you have the A14 5G?

[@luciangabi7809]

For ultrawide camera .

[@kalipeztech]

Keep in mind the vast majority of people getting this phone at this point are getting it for free from a carrier. Fwiw the A14 5G has some free deals too but it varies a lot from carrier to carrier

[@rob12841]

@@luciangabi7809 because it’s not really necessary unless you need to use it as a hotspot. The hype on 5G is overrated and the only satisfaction would be Speedtest results. 4g streams and browses absolutely fine.

During one year of use, it is getting worse, slower after 5.1 update, the UI just stuttering. Don't buy this phone even at its cheapest. And no one has mention in any review, this phone only runs in 32bit mode, even though the CPU A55 is 64bit. Don't try to play any good games, drop frames is really bad, could be worse than Helio G35

[@RohanDatta-w7f]

It's a basic phone. Just use it to browse the web, look at social media, and call and text. It's not meant to play games

[@wonghow]

@@RohanDatta-w7f can't even do those, not to mention play games. App switcher lag. Unlock screen lag. Google play lag.

[@wonghow]

@@RohanDatta-w7f expensive slow phone. There are cheaper better phone can do basic tasks

[@its_Anu]

Don't get it twisted guys. I just got rid of this phone because of how ass its gotten over the years

[@mandre6488]

Update: My Samsung A13 5G received the February 2024 software update only to become way slower and the battery charge lasts half the time it used to last before this update. Question: is Samsung doing it to push users to buy a newer Samsung phone? To me it looks like Samsung is tricking us to buy a new phone. I was happy with Samsung phones before, I am not anymore. Actually, I am thinking my next phone will not be Samsung, definitely.

[@hiamwizzy]

I am kinda tired of andriod cos of the tiktok camera
