Samsung has launched two new devices in the Indian smartphone market today. Samsung Galaxy M13 5G and its 4G variant were released in India today for catering for the affordable section. Speaking of the Samsung Galaxy M13 5G, the device comes with a large battery and features Samsung’s RAM Plus feature for faster smartphone performance. There are several other features as well offered by the device and let’s check those to know if it is able to compete in the highly competitive market.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Price in India

The Samsung Galaxy M13 5G is available for purchase at a price of 13,999 for the model with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, and 15,999 for the model with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. The Samsung Galaxy M13 5G is offered in a variety of colour variants, including Midnight Blue, Aqua Green, and Stardust Brown. Beginning on July 23, 2022, consumers will be able to buy the smartphone via a variety of channels, including Amazon, the website for Samsung, and other retail locations.

As a part of the special launch offer, customers who utilise cards issued by ICICI Bank would be qualified to get an immediate discount of Rs 1,000 on the purchase of M13 5G.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Design

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G features a minimal design with a plastic build and an outdated v-shaped notch on the front with noticeable bezels surrounding the screen. The rear panel features two camera rings without a camera module, which looks good. There is a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and the volume rockers are also located on the right edge. There is a SIM Tray on the left side and a Type-C charging port and a 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom of the device. The device features a decent weight and can be operated with a single hand with ease.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Display

In comparison to the 4G model, the Samsung Galaxy M13 5G has a somewhat more compact LCD display measuring 6.5 inches in size but with a lesser resolution of HD+. On the other hand, it compensates for it by including a screen refresh rate of 90 Hz.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Performance

The MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset, which was constructed using the 7nm production technique and gives the device a fair amount more power than the Exynos counterpart, is the brains behind the smartphone. It comes with up to 6GB of RAM and up to 128GB of storage, the latter of which may have the capacity increased to up to 1TB by using the microSD card slot. The Samsung M13 5G has 11 5G bands, which is more than any other 5G smartphone in this price range. This mobile device operates on One UI Core 4, which is built atop Android 12 OS.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Camera

The smartphone only has a dual camera arrangement for its optics, which consists of a primary camera with a resolution of 50 megapixels and an aperture of 1.8 millimetres, as well as a secondary depth sensor with a resolution of 2 megapixels. The 5-megapixel front-facing camera is used for both taking selfies and making video calls. There is no ultra-wide lens and the selfies camera doesn’t justify the price tag of the device. In order to provide 5G connectivity in this price segment, Samsung has done the cost-cutting in the camera section significantly.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Battery

It has a battery capacity of 5,000 mAh and supports charging at 15 watts. Although, the battery is decent enough to last for the whole day while using the device continuously and for two days on normal usage, there could have been improved faster charging. There are smartphones like Poco M4 Pro 5G offering 33W charging at the same price tag. For connecting the charger, you get a Type-C charging port at the bottom of the device.

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G Verdict

Samsung Galaxy M13 5G features a 5G chipset and carries a decent battery. Also, there is a 90Hz refresh rate display but that comes with HD+ resolution only. There is a poor camera setup and the design language is outdated. It doesn’t make any sense to offer 5G connectivity while stripping other features. There are other smartphones available in the market with more capable features and at a decent price tag.
