The Xiaomi Redmi 13 is the successor to last year’s Redmi 12, and occupies a step above entry-level 4G Android smartphone that packs some interesting specs and features. These include a glass back, Corning’s Gorilla Glass protection on the screen, a 108-megapixel rear camera, and 33W fast charging.
The Redmi series occupy a position below the Redmi Note series in Xiaomi’s (often confusing) product line. The positioning of the Redmi 13 is what makes the specs and price interesting.
Plus, with the Redmi 13, Xiaomi has finally joined TECNO, Infinix, and itel in replicating the rear camera design of the iPhone 14 Pro. We guess it is a case of, “If you can’t beat them, join them”?
