Earlier this month, Xiaomi started rolling out the Redmi Note 13 Pro across various global markets, starting with India. This device was later followed by the Poco X6.

Though they sound different, both smartphones are nearly identical. The only major differences between them are their primary cameras and rear finishes.

Differences between Redmi Note 13 Pro and Poco X6

To be precise, the Poco phone arrives with a downgraded 64MP main camera as opposed to a 200MP snapper on the Redmi. For just this one major hardware change, the device costs way cheaper as it is also sold exclusively online.

For instance, in India, the Poco X6 5G starts at ₹21,999 for the base 8GB + 256GB memory configuration. Whereas the higher 12GB + 512GB variant retails at ₹24,999.

On the other hand, the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G not only starts at a higher ₹25,999 price tag but its base variant is limited to 128GB storage and 8GB RAM. In fact, there is no 512GB version.

The higher 8GB + 256GB and 12GB + 256GB memory variants cost ₹27,999 and ₹29,999, respectively.

The pricing clearly makes the Poco X6 a better deal than the Redmi Note 13 Pro if you don’t care about the higher-megapixel camera. However, it is worth noting that the Poco phone is limited to online, while the Redmi handset can be purchased both online as well as offline.
