Xiaomi recently introduced the Xiaomi 13 series, which includes the Xiaomi 13 and the Xiaomi 13 Pro. While both phones feature impressive specifications, there has been some discussion around the choice of screen for the Xiaomi 13 Pro. While the Xiaomi 13 features a flat-screen, the Xiaomi 13 Pro has a curved screen. Some have questioned this choice, and CEO Lei Jun has addressed these concerns.
Lei Jun: The curved screen choice on Xiaomi 13 Pro for a sleek look
According to Lei Jun, the decision to use a curved screen on the Xiaomi 13 Pro was due to the fact that a flat-screen would have made the phone too thick. He stated that a flat screen would have made the top-tier flagship “too thick” and “you wouldn’t like it.” While Lei Jun did not specify how a flat screen would have impacted the thickness of the phone, it is possible that he was referring to the feel of the phone in the hand rather than the actual physical thickness of the device.
In terms of specifications, the Xiaomi 13 Pro features a 6.73-inch 2K resolution (3200×1440) screen with a new generation Samsung E6 light-emitting material, peak brightness of 1900nit, support for HDR10+, 10bit, and a 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate. It is also a professional original color screen, with a JNCD of approximately 0.21 and a Delta E of approximately 0.28. In terms of thickness, the Xiaomi 13 Pro is generally thicker than the Xiaomi 13. Many factors can impact the thickness of a phone, including battery capacity and camera size.
Overall, the choice to use a curved screen on the 13 Pro was likely made in order to maintain a slim and sleek design for the top-tier flagship phone. While some may prefer the feel of a flat display, the curved screen on the 13 Pro offers a unique and premium look and feel. Ultimately, the choice between a curved or flat screen is a personal preference and will depend on the individual user’s needs and preferences.
