Recently, Poco X6 Neo was released in India. It is the most affordable model in the X6 series with a starting price of ₹15,999.

The device is almost identical to Redmi Note 13 with one notable difference. This single change and the online-only availability make it cheaper than Redmi’s ₹17,999 starting price.

So the question arises which one should you opt for? We try to answer this in this post.

1. How is Poco X6 Neo different from Redmi Note 13?

The Poco X6 Neo features a downgraded camera system. It has only two rear cameras instead of three, unlike the Redmi Note 13.

The missing camera on it is the useful 8MP ultrawide unit. While the remaining three cameras are the same, which are a 108MP primary sensor with 3x in-sensor zoom support. a 2MP depth sensor, and a 16MP front-facing snapper.

Additionally, the base variant of the Poco phone arrives with 8GB RAM as compared to 6GB RAM on the Redmi handset.

 Here’s how much these products cost.

  • Poco X6 Neo
    • 8GB + 128GB – ₹15,999
    • 12GB + 256GB – ₹17,999
  • Redmi Note 13
    • 6GB + 128GB – ₹17,999
    • 8GB + 256GB – ₹19,999
    • 12GB + 512GB – ₹21,999

2. Should you buy Poco X6 Neo or Redmi Note 13?

If you use ultrawide camera on a regular basis, Redmi Note 13 is the pick for you as this camera is not available on Poco X6 Neo.

Otherwise, Poco X6 Neo is a better option as all other features are identical on the two smartphones. Most importantly, it is ₹2,000 cheaper.

However, there’s one caveat. The X6 Neo like other Poco products is sold exclusively via Flipkart. Thus, financing options are limited as well.

On the other hand, Redmi Note 13 is a multi-channel device. It can be purchased from Amazon, Mi.com, Xiaomi Home stores, and retail stores across India. Therefore, you get lots of financing options to choose from if you cannot afford the phone upfront.
