Samsung has announced that it’s planning to launch the Galaxy A13 5G in the United States on December 3 with an affordable price tag of $249.99. Like other mid-rangers, the Galaxy A13 5G packs a huge 5,000 mAh battery so you’ll get a full day’s use, but this phone is also nice because it allows you to get on board with 5G at a reasonable price point.
With such a big battery, it would normally take a while to charge up with a standard charging connection but luckily this device supports 15W fast charging meaning you can get the battery full in minutes, rather than hours. In addition, it packs a triple-lens camera, an edge-to-edge display, and Samsung’s ‘defense-grade’ Knox Security.
The full specifications for the new phone are as follows:
