The Galaxy A22 5G is currently the most affordable 5G smartphone from Samsung. At the end of August, news broke out that the upcoming Galaxy A13 5G will soon take on this mantle. The source that shared this information is now back again with more details about the successor of Galaxy A12.

The existence of Galaxy A13 5G was revealed by GalaxyClub. According to the publication, this handset will bear the model number SM-A136B. A new report by the same publication has now revealed the camera and battery specs of the phone.

According to the latest report by GalayClub, the forthcoming Galaxy A13 5G will arrive with a 50MP primary camera. Unfortunately, the exact sensor is not known.  Anyway, going by the recent budget smartphones like Redmi 10 with a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JN1 sensor, the Galaxy A13 5G may also have the same sensor.

Further, the device is said to be backed by a 5,000mAh battery. It is common for budget smartphones to feature a larger battery. Even the Galaxy A12 had the same amount of battery.

Apart from these two specifics, we know nothing about the Galaxy A13 5G at the moment. However, we expect to learn more about this handset in the coming days.

Samsung may unveil the Galaxy A13 5G before the end of 2021. But the phone will most likely hit the shelves in early 2022.
