Samsung Main Image 13

Samsung is all set to launch a new budget phone in the Galaxy A series. The upcoming model is rumored to be the Galaxy A13 which as per recent leaks will be available with both 4G and 5G network connectivity. There have been several leaks doing rounds online hinting at the key specifications and features of the upcoming device. However, Giznext has managed to get hands-on the complete renders, and this is how the Galaxy A13 will look like.

Samsung Galaxy A13 Full Design

As mentioned above, we at Giznext have managed to source the official renders of the Samsung Galaxy A13. One of the industry sources has helped us with the images. The leaked renders confirm the Galaxy A13 will bring a new design language compared to its predecessor, i.e, the Galaxy A12.

We’ll speak of the differences first. The Galaxy A13 will be launched with a single-tone back panel. The upper left corner will be housing three camera sensors (circular) aligned vertically. Notably, the sensors aren’t housed inside any module rather are positioned separately and are protruding from the remaining body.

This is unlike the previous model (Galaxy A12) where you will get a square-shaped camera setup at the back. The built material seems plastic here. The Galaxy A13 will same the same design upfront as the Galaxy A12. The device will feature a waterdrop notch display.

The bezels would be slim at the sides and on the top but will be slightly thicker at the chin. Now, coming to the placement of the keys and ports. The Galaxy A13 will have the SIM card tray on the left panel. Whereas, the right spine would be accommodating the volume rockers along with the power key.

Notably, the power key will be integrating a fingerprint scanner for biometrics. We can also confirm the availability of the black color option. The company might introduce other variants as well. If we go by the recent leaks, the Galaxy A13 is said to come in blue, orange, and white shades besides black.

Samsung Galaxy A13 Rumored Specifications And Features

The Samsung Galaxy A13 is visiting the leaks factory for a while now and is said to be driven by the Dimensity 700 octa-core processor. The smartphone is tipped to come with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. We might see a 6.48-inch LCD display with an FHD+ resolution and 20:9 aspect ratio.

The Galaxy A13 triple rear camera setup is likely to pack a 50MP main camera, while the waterdrop notch display upfront might accommodate an 8MP selfie camera. Also, the rumors suggest the Galaxy A13 will be equipped with a 5,000 mAH battery which will get 25W fast charging support.

We would like to add that these are the rumored hardware and Samsung is yet to give an official nod on the same. Until then, it would be advised to take the specification details as a grain of salt.

OnePlus 10 Pro Might Debut On This Date; All You Need To Know

OnePlus earlier this year announced the OnePlus 9 series and if we go by all the recent reports, the brand has skipped the launch of the OnePlus 9T series itself. The OnePlus 10 series is said to be introduced directly instead of the “T” series which has been the trend all this while. The rumor mill has already started sharing key information related to the OnePlus 10 and the OnePlus 10 Pro. A new leak now hints at an early arrival of the latter variant.

OnePlus 10 Pro Official Launch Timeline Announced

The OnePlus 10 Pro’s official launch timeline is leaked by Max Jambor on Twitter. The tipster has shared a chart showing the launch timeline that suggests the OnePlus 10 Pro will be announced in China by January or February next year.

The global launch timeline is suggested approximately a month or two later. This means the device will likely break covers by March or April 2022. However, OnePlus has not announced the timeline for the OnePlus 10 series launch officially just yet.

So, we’ll have to go by the dates tipped on Twitter. That’s also considering the previous leaks have suggested the same timeline and also the handset is in the testing phase. It is worth highlighting that the chart shared by the tipster only mentions the OnePlus 10 Pro and not the OnePlus 10.

But, there are sleek possibilities that the OnePlus 10 Pro will go official solo or ahead of the OnePlus 10. We are expecting the company to announce both devices together. Nevertheless, OnePlus would be announcing its new flagship lineup in less than a year’s timeline which it has been following until now.

OnePlus 10 Pro Expected Specifications And Features

The OnePlus 10 Pro is said to be launched with the Snapdragon 898 processor. This is the upcoming flagship-grade chipset by Qualcomm with octa-cores and 5G network connectivity. The standard OnePlus 10 is also tipped with the same premium Qualcomm chipset.

The complete specifications are yet to be revealed. However, rumors are rife the OnePlus 10 Pro will come with a 1440p Fluid AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. We will keep you posted with the remaining specifications details as well as its pricing and availability.
