Pros and Cons

OnePlus Nord N20 SE

Strengths

uconnect's design is really good which is exactly what Oppo is known for
it has a standard 5000 battery with 33w charging
with such a low powered processor and HD screen you can anticipate veritably good battery life from this phone
OnePlus still has an excellent brand image in the eyes of general consumers

Weaknesses

the Nord n20sc doesn't make any sense at this price, it's ridiculously priced
it comes with a three-time old Media Tech Helio G35 chipset which is an outdated processor
HD display refreshes at just 60 HC which is slower than the competition
the binary camera setup has no Ultra wide lines and produces average results
camera performance is always emotional, especially in selfies and videography
it's analogous to what my verdict for oppo's Budget a series phones has always been: don't ever buy them
there are much better products at analogous prices out there with Superior specs in nearly all aspects
the phone feels sluggish, it doesn't indeed feel like you're using a OnePlus phone

Samsung Galaxy F13

Strengths

Good display
Long battery life
Impressive camera performance
Ad-free UI
Great battery charging time

Weaknesses

Underwhelming peak brightness
Slow ambient light sensor
Limited performance

OnePlus Nord N20 SE

The OnePlus Nord N20 SE is the brand's most budget-friendly offering yet, priced at an astonishing Rs 14,999 in India. However, beneath its stylish design lies a phone that fails to impress. With a three-year-old MediaTek Helio G35 chipset, HD display, and binary camera setup, this phone seems like an oversold rebrand of the Oppo A74G. At this price point, it's hard not to compare it unfavorably to other budget options from brands like Redmi, Galaxy, and Realme, which offer superior specs for a similar price.

Samsung Galaxy F13

The Samsung Galaxy F13 is a budget smartphone that competes in a crowded market with intense rivalry from other brands. Its design language is unmistakably Samsung, but the phone's plastic build and chunky size may be off-putting to some. The rear panel has a nice texture, making it easier to hold, while the front features a dewdrop notch and thick chin. The phone's 6.6-inch LCD display with full HD resolution and 60Hz refresh rate is a significant improvement over its predecessor, the F12. While the peak brightness is underwhelming, the colors and viewing angles are good. The device is powered by Samsung's Exynos 850 chipset, which may not be the strongest performer in this segment but handles occasional gaming fine. The camera setup includes a 50-megapixel primary sensor, 5-megapixel ultra-wide snapper, and 2-megapixel depth sensor. While the dynamic range is limited, photos are good enough for social media posts. The phone also features an 8-megapixel selfie camera with decent results but no autofocus. One of the standout features of the Galaxy F13 is its large 6000mAh battery, which provides easily two days of battery life even with heavy usage. While charging takes a bit over two hours, the phone's great battery life more than makes up for it. Overall, the Samsung Galaxy F13 is a solid budget smartphone with impressive battery life and an ad-free UI. Its onboard ultra-wide-angle camera is also a plus, making it a good buy for those on a tight budget.
