Xiaomi 13 Know before BUYING: A HONEST review

Advertisements

Despite all these eye-catching features, Xiaomi 13 will be remembered as the most expensive Xiaomi smartphone in India to date. At Rs 79,999, the phone sits next to some praiseworthy Android premium devices like Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, iQOO 11. And OnePlus 11 5G – all powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.

But Xiaomi’s focus on the 13 is only on one thing, that is, the cameras. Apart from the 1-inch camera sensor, the company has introduced a floating lens mechanism. Which help users capture stunning portraits and close-ups with the telephoto camera. xiaomi 13 13 pro

However, as impressive as the camera system may look, the selfie camera barely gets upgrades, which may irk some semi-professional creators who might want to use it for Instagram live sessions and Reels/ YouTube Shorts. xiaomi 13 specifications

In that case, if you’re looking for a camera-focused smartphone, is the Xiaomi 13 your best option so far? Let’s find out in this review. xiaomi 13 price

Xiaomi 13 design and design

Similar to the Mi 11 Ultra, the Xiaomi 13 features a ceramic finish on the back, which looks and feels elegant. This does add extra weight, but after using the phone for over a week, I became accustomed to the phone’s chunky build. Personally, I still find the Xiaomi 12 Pro’s satin finish much better, but the ceramic finish adds a bit more flair. Ultimately, it will come down to personal preference. Speaking of preferences, customers can choose between black and white colour options. Regardless of which colour variant, the glossiness on the back is quite prominent.

Xiaomi 13 performance

The Xiaomi 13 packs Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, which fixes one of the major pain points of the Xiaomi 12 Pro. The new-gen chipset is much more stable, and there were barely any signs of heating. To be clear, I used the Xiaomi 13 at the highest settings, which include 120Hz refresh rate, WQHD+, and always on display. The only time I noticed signs of overheating was while using the “boost charging speed.”

Xiaomi 13 cameras

Cameras on smartphones have come a long way, and the Xiaomi 13 is a testament to that evolution. When I tried the Xiaomi 12 Pro last year, I was convinced that OEMs have very limited room to take the game to the next level. But with its partnership with Leica, Xiaomi 13 Pro’s camera system is a solid example of harmony between hardware and software.

Xiaomi 13 battery

While the new Xiaomi 13 still retains 120W fast charging, the battery size has been increased from 4600mAh to 4820mAh. During my review, the Xiaomi 13 Pro easily lasted an entire day with the highest settings enabled. On days when the camera testing got intense, the Xiaomi 13 lasted for roughly 14-15 hours, which is also pretty solid.

Xiaomi 13 review: Should you buy?

There’s no doubt that Xiaomi 13 is a true flagship smartphone, but the hefty price tag may hesitate some customers. Xiaomi has proved that the company can produce praiseworthy premium devices, but the bigger challenge is to convince the audience that generally prefers iPhones and Samsung Galaxy S-series phones in this price bracket.

Purely based on performance, the Xiaomi 13 will impress both regular customers and camera enthusiasts. Be it for gaming, productivity, or smartphone photography — the Xiaomi 13 won’t disappoint. That does not mean the phone is perfect, and Xiaomi needs to work on the design to make its phones slimmer and more durable. The company has done it in the past with the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE. I am sure it can be achieved again.
