The Samsung Galaxy A13 5G has joined its 4G/LTE-only counterpart in having a next-gen replacement pop up in a new leak ahead of its launch. This one all but confirms the launch of a smartphone with up-to-date software and mobile data specs (even if they are not matched by its Wi-Fi capabilities) in the near future.

Unlike its putative "4G" sibling, the Galaxy A14 5G has no pre-launch renders or rumored display specs to its name as yet. Nevertheless, the smartphone's existence has just gained near-instant credibility, thank to a new leak from the Wi-Fi Alliance.

It shows that the group has acknowledged the Samsung device by its product name, as well as by its model number (SM-A146P-DSN). Accordingly, the new certification suggests that the Galaxy A14 5G has at least 1 variant with dual SIM support rather than eSIM functionality, which seems consistent with its probable market tier.

However, the most interesting aspect of this new documentation is that the A14 5G is unequivocally linked to Android 13. Therefore, it seems the probably low-to-mid-range smartphone will launch with an up-to-date UI based on some version of One UI 5.

Despite this, however, it may contrast these specs with relatively elderly dual-band Wi-Fi 5 connectivity. It will be interesting to see whether the "A14 4G" would debut with similar specs - and if the 2 devices really will resemble the much higher-end S23 once on the market.
