Redmi Note 14 Pro+ is all set to make its debut on Sept. 26 in China. As the moniker goes, it will succeed the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, which debuted around the same time last year in the home market. In addition to a report that spilled a lot of announcements about the Redmi Note 14 Pro+, Redmi has also confirmed a couple of details about the smartphone. The details that have emerged so far suggest that the Note 14 Pro+ will be a comprehensive upgrade over the Redmi Note 13 Pro+. Here’s a look at the 5 major upgrades that will be available on the Note 14 Pro+.

improved performance, thanks to Snapdragon 7s Gen 3

Redmi has confirmed that the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ will be the world’s first smartphone to feature the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3. The inclusion of the new chip will offer smoother performance, a new generation of AI experience, and less power consumption. It will support 120fs mode in the “Honor of Kings” game, offering a stable high frame rates experience.

To recall, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ came equipped with the Dimensity 7200 Ultra, which is also a 4nm chip featuring six Cortex-A510 cores working at 2.0GHz and two Cortex-A715 cores operating at 2.8GHz. Since the SD7sG3 is a brand-new chip, with no benchmark performance available, it is difficult to make a fair comparison between the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 and the older Dimensity 7200 Ultra.

However, the Snapdragon chip in the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ may offer better performance due to its advanced architecture featuring a combination of high-efficiency and high-performance cores. Apart from the performance boost, the SD 7s Gen 3 may be more efficient for gaming and multitasking than the Dimensity chip.

Like the Note 13 Pro+, its successor is expected to come in multiple variants, such as 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, and 16GB+512GB.

Huge 6,200mAh battery

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ featured a 5,000mAh battery with 120W rapid charging, whereas the upcoming Note 14 Pro+ will have a single-cell 6,200mAh silicon battery. It will also support 90W fast charging.

The larger battery capacity of the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ ensures prolonged usage on a single charge, which is advantageous for heavy users. Additionally, using silicon technology in the battery can improve overall efficiency and longevity compared to the standard battery in the Note 13 Pro+. The 90W rapid charging does not suggest a significant downgrade considering the substantial increase in battery capacity.

The larger battery will increase the weight of the Note 14 Pro+ to around 212 grams and the thickness to 9.36mm. In comparison, the Note 13 Pro+ with a smaller battery weighs around 200 to 204 grams and has a thinner body, measuring

New telephoto camera

The Redmi Note 14 Pro+ is poised to elevate the camera experience significantly compared to its predecessor. While the Note 13 Pro+ boasted an impressive 200-megapixel (main, OIS) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera setup, the Note 14 Pro+ shifts focus on overall versatility and quality.

The new 50-megapixel main camera, coupled with a wider f/1.6 aperture, promises superior low-light photography and potentially improved dynamic range. But the real game-changer is the addition of a dedicated telephoto lens with 2.5x optical zoom, which reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed.  This will enable users to capture crisp, detailed shots of distant subjects without relying solely on digital zoom, a feature notably absent in the Note 13 Pro+.

While the ultra-wide lens’ specifications remain unconfirmed, there’s a possibility that the camera setup of the Note 14 Pro+ will have a dedicated camera for ultra-wide shots. Overall, these enhancements indicate a camera system geared towards delivering a more well-rounded and flexible photography experience.

Improved durability

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ features a layer of Gorilla Glass Victus protecting its display, a curved glass back, a plastic frame, and an IP68-rated chassis. In comparison, the Note 14 Pro+ will continue to feature a curved-edge display like the Note 13 Pro+, but it will have the newer Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on top. It seems that the black and white editions of the Note 14 Pro+ will have Gorilla Glass Victus protection. Additionally, the Note 14 Pro+ is expected to arrive with an IP69 level of dust and water resistance.

With the upgrade to Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and a higher IP rating, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ promises even better durability than its predecessor, ensuring greater peace of mind for users.

Refreshing design

The rear design of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ appeared to be a refinement of what was seen in the Redmi Note 12 series. However, official images of the Note 14 Pro+ reveal a new squircle camera module that enhances its overall look. There does not seem to be a significant change in the front design, as both phones feature a curved-edge AMOLED screen with slim bezels. The Note 14 Pro+ is confirmed to arrive in three shades: Moon Porcelain White, Midnight Black, and Star Sand Green.

In partnership with the Argentina Football Association, Xiaomi announced the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ World Champions Edition in India last week. It coincides with the company’s 10th anniversary in the country.

The limited edition offering features the Argentina National Team that clinched the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus World Champions Edition is a treat to all Argentina fans out there and makes them feel more connected to the team. 

It’s common that a limited edition smartphone comes with a customized box, a few bundled goodies and a different design as well as UI changes on the device. The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G (review) World Champions Edition is no different.

The core specifications of the smartphone remain the same as the standard variants, including a 120Hz curved AMOLED display, Dimensity 7200 Ultra, 200MP camera, and 120W fast charging. However, the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus 5G World Champions Edition is offered in only 12GB + 512GB memory configuration.

Read on to know what’s different on the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ World Champions Edition.

Customized box

The first thing you would notice is that the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ World Champions Edition comes in a customized box that features photos of three players on the cover. These are Ángel Di María, Emiliano Martínez, and Rodrigo De Paul from the 2022 World Cup winning squad.

Meanwhile, the other side of the cover box has an accurate turf/football field paying homage to the beautiful sport. There is a large card that shows an image of the Argentina team lifting the World Cup as well as the names of the entire squad and the team’s major honours. 

All this gives the feeling of a collector edition to the fans. 

Design changes 

Coming to the smartphone and its accessories, the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus World Champions Edition has camera rings accentuated in Gold colour on the left side and an AFA logo also in Gold colour on the right side of the back panel. The top part of the smartphone has a Blue shade.

The other half of the back panel has Blue and White stripes similar to Argentina’s jersey. It has number 10 printed in Gold which is Lionel Messi’s jersey number. 

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ runs on HyperOS-based Android 14 OS. The World Champions Edition includes customized UI including a lock screen, new wallpapers, and icons to match the Argentina NT. 

Accessories and more

The charging brick of the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus World Champions Edition comes in a Light Blue shade and AFA lettering with three stars. There is also a customized charging cable and a Gold colored SIM ejector PIN.

Pricing and availability

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ World Champions Edition (12GB + 512GB) carries a price tag of Rs 34,999 after discounts and offers. It will be available for purchase from May 15 via Amazon, Flipkart, Xiaomi’s website, and retail stores.

The standard version of this very same configuration costs Rs 35,999 without offers and discounts.

The post Redmi Note 13 Pro+ World Champions Edition: What’s Different?  appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Redmi Note series has been an immensely popular lineup from Xiaomi. These mid range devices have always been among the highest selling devices from the brand. The last two iterations that were released include the latest Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus and the Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus, which came before it. But which one is a better deal for you now? What’s the better pick? Let’s find out in this comparison.

Note 13 Pro+ vs Note 12 Pro+: Newer & Faster

Newer never always means better, but the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ has a noticeable edge over its predecessor. It is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra SoC, while the Note 12 Pro+ features the Dimensity 1080 chipset (AKA Dimensity 7050). The Dimensity 7200 Ultra scored 739,097 on AnTuTu, which is higher than the Dimensity 1080’s 527,053 score on the same platform. Although, the storage configuration (up to 12GB + 512GB) and battery specs (5,000mAh with 120W wired fast charging) is the same on both phones.

Slight visual makeover

Between the two generations, not a lot has changed in terms of design. The camera placement and arrangement are almost identical, but there are slight differences overall. Redmi’s older Note 12 Pro+ only came with a glass body variant. On the other hand, the Note 13 Pro+ follows the recent trend of including a glass and eco-leather rear design. There is also a dual tone color scheme on the newer model.

Which one has a better screen and cameras?

Unlike the processor and design elements, there aren’t a lot of major changes between the two devices. Both models sport a tall 6.67-inch display that offers FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+. The only noticeable differences are the AMOLED screen on the Note 13 series and OLED on the Note 12 lineup along with a brighter screen on the newer phone.

The similarities are reflected in the photography department as well. Both phones features a 200-megapixel triple camera setup on the rear, and a 16-megapixel selfie shooter on the front. The primary sensor is a Samsung ISOCELL HPX primary camera with OIS on the Note 12 Pro+, while the Note 13 Pro+ offers a Samsung ISOCELL HP3 sensor with OIS and EIS. In other words, there isn’t a major upgrade or difference between the two.

Pricing: What’s more worth it for you?

When the two options presented to you are so similar, the pricing is typically a tie breaker. As of right now, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ starts from 31,999 INR. Although, it can go down to 30,399 INR with an exchange offer. There is even a bank discount of up to 2,500 on ICICI, HDFC, and SBI credit cards, which lowers its effective price to just 29,499 INR. On the other hand, the Note 12 Pro+ starts at 27,499 INR, but there’s a 2,500 INR Credit and Debit card discount on certain banks and even an exchange deal worth 1,500 INR. So this makes it more affordable.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ should be the easier option to recommend since its newer, faster, and will get longer software support, which is great since HyperOS is out. But if you’re on a strict budget of under 25,000 INR, then the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ is an option that you won’t regret. Apart from the chipset, there is nothing major that you’ll miss out between the two generations.

Xiaomi has rolled out a major update for its popular Redmi Note 13 series in India. Previously running on MIUI, the Redmi Note 13, Redmi Note 13 Pro, and Redmi Note 13 Pro+ can now benefit from the all-new HyperOS. 

The update brings a significant performance boost, a revamped interface, and a host of new features designed to enhance the user experience. Let’s go through the details here.

Redmi Note 13 Series HyperOS Update India

HyperOS update on the Redmi Note 13 series brings “Comprehensive Refactoring,” a technology that optimizes task scheduling and distributes workloads across the phone’s various processing units. 

It should lead to smoother performance, particularly in demanding tasks like gaming. The update also claims to improve power consumption during gameplay.

Moreover, HyperOS emphasizes security with “End-to-End Security” measures to protect user data and privacy. It also brings various interface enhancements to enhance usability.

For instance, there’s a customizable lock screen with different styles, backgrounds, and widgets. The control center now features a label-free layout for easier access to essential functions.

Moreover, for photography enthusiasts, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G has received a camera upgrade with the new OS update. However, Xiaomi hasn’t provided specific details about these improvements or whether they apply only to the Pro Plus model.

HyperOS also introduces new app icons and animations inspired by Xiaomi’s new “ALIVE DESIGN PHILOSOPHY” design philosophy. The animations are now lighter and more responsive, according to Xiaomi. 

The File Manager app has also been redesigned with better categorization options for improved organization and file management. Weather information is now presented with new animations that accurately reflect current conditions.

Apart from these features, Xiaomi notes that additional optimizations have been made to the underlying software stack of the Redmi Note 13 5G series. 

The rollout of HyperOS to the Redmi Note 13 5G series is likely staged, so it may take some time for all users to receive the update.

redmi note 13 pro vs redmi note 13 pro plus: Design and colours

redmi note 13 pro:

This affordable device comes with a camera cutout that features four cutouts each holding a camera sensor or a flash. Xiaomi uses a flat side design in place of the more rounded sides on this device to make it a bit more grippy for most users. Up front, this device features almost even bezels all around it to give users a better user experience.

The volume rocker and power sit on the right side of the device leaving the left side free of any buttons. On the rear, this device features a glass back (Midnight Black, Aurora Purple (Coral Purple), Ocean Teal, Arctic White) which is good to look at but might create some problems for those using their devices without protective pouches.

The Redmi Note 13 5G series made its debut in India in early January.  The lineup consists of three models ranging across different price segments.

Within a few days from its release, the series generated ₹1,000 crores in revenue. A month later, the company now announces that the revenue from the said smartphones has doubled.

Earlier today, Xiaomi revealed that the Redmi Note 13 5G series crossed ₹2,000 crores in revenue in a month. This is quite an achievement for a brand that has been losing market share in the country.

However, unlike previous years, the company does not mention the number of units sold. The numbers should be comparatively low given the current smartphone market scenario.

So how come the revenue is high? The answer to this is the pricing of the newer Redmi Notes.

Xiaomi bumped the price of the Redimi Note phones by incorporating a select few premium features.

The base Redmi Note 13 5G starts at ₹17,999 instead of ₹9,999 as it used to a few years back. On the other end of the spectrum, the top-end Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus retails as high as ₹35,999.

Due to increased pricing and à la carte features from mid-range as well as premium categories, the Redmi Note series is no longer a default recommendation. The devices are still good but they have lost their uniqueness and charm.

Despite all these, Xiaomi managed to clock in crores of revenue in a month. This sort of proves that Indian consumers still trust the ‘Redmi Note’ brand due to its legacy.

Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 13 Pro series, launched in September, has become a runaway success in China. Redmi Mobile recently announced that national sales of the Redmi Note 13 series have surpassed 3.2 million units. 

Additionally, Xiaomi states it has received an overwhelmingly positive response for the Redmi Note 13 series on JD.com, China’s major e-commerce platform, where the satisfaction rate has consistently stayed above 98%.

In contrast to the global market, where the Redmi Note 13 series includes a mix of both 4G and 5G models, in China, Xiaomi launched the series exclusively with 5G capabilities. The Chinese lineup features three models: the Redmi Note 13 5G, Note 13 Pro 5G, and Note 13 Pro+ 5G.

Redmi Note 13 5G is the most affordable option of the three, starting at CNY 1,199 for the 6 GB + 128 GB model. It has a 6.6-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a 108MP main camera, and a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 processor. The device has a 108MP dual camera setup on the back and gets its juice via a 5000mAh battery. For charging you get a 33W adapter inside the box.

Then we have the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G with a 200MP main camera and a long-lasting 5,100mAh battery with 67W fast charging. The Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor delivers reliable performance, making it a good choice for multitasking and gaming. The Note 13 Pro 5G starts at CNY 1,499 for 8 GB + 128 GB in China.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G is the flagship of the three, boasting a premium curved AMOLED display, a versatile 200MP main camera with 4x optical zoom, and a speedy MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra processor. It gets its fuel via a 5000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support to ensure it’s quickly back in action. The Note 13 Pro+ starts at CNY 1,999  for the 12 GB + 256 GB in China.

The Redmi Note 13 series is set to launch in global markets starting January 2024. The lineup will make its debut first in India on January 4.

Ahead of that, the company has been teasing the features of these phones. But everything about them is already known as international markets are getting the same models sold in China.

The only thing that’s not known is how much they will cost. Recently, we learned about the price of Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus in Europe. Today, the price range for India emerges on the internet.

Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus could cost the same as its predecessor in India

According to influencer Abhishek Yadav on X (formerly Twitter), the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus’ retail box carries a ₹32,999 price tag. This price is applicable to the 12GB + 256GB variant of the product.

It is a known fact that almost all electronic devices in India are not sold at the price tags mentioned on their retail boxes. Their official selling prices are usually much cheaper.

For example, the 8GB + 256GB variant of Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus has a box price of ₹33,999. However, it was introduced at ₹29,999.

Therefore, the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus might actually cost under ₹30,000 in India. It could be priced similar to its predecessor or even cheaper.

For that price, consumers will be getting a handset with an IP68 rating (dust and water resistance), a 6.67-inch 1.5K (2712 x 1220 pixels) 120Hz curved OLED display, a 200MP camera, and 120W fast wired charging support.

Other features of the phone include a MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra chip, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, dual stereo speakers, an IR blaster, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection for the display, an in-screen fingerprint sensor, and MIUI 14 based on Android 13.

The product will be available in three colors, namely Midnight Black, Moonlight White, and Aurora Purple. The latter version will have a leather back as opposed to a glass panel on the former two.

Talking about specs, the phone is built around a 6.67-inch 1.5K (2712 x 1220 pixels) curved OLED display. The 10-bit centered punch-hole panel offers up to a 120Hz refresh rate and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.

Under the hood, the handset houses a MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra chipset paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. It boots MIUI 14 based on Android 13 and is backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 120W wired charging.

Xiaomi unveiled the Redmi Note 13 series in China just a while back. Now, the latest certification sighting hints that the global launch of the highly anticipated Redmi Note 13 Pro and Note 13 Pro+ could be imminent. So here are all the details.

Redmi Note 13 Pro series visits TDRA

The Chinese tech giant’s Note 13 Pro models were sighted on the TDRA certification platform. This is the same database where the base Note 13 5G was spotted back in November.

Unfortunately, the TDRA certification does not reveal any finer details like pricing or specifications regarding the upcoming devices. However, the hardware should be similar to the Chinese variants that were announced in the brand’s home market previously.

Under the hood, the Redmi Note 13 Pro features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC, while the Note 13 Pro+ arrived with the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra chipset.

Xiaomi had unveiled the Redmi Note 13 lineup in China back in September 2023. The company is planning on releasing these devices globally, including in the Indian market. Now, a recent sighting on a certification platform has revealed some details regarding the upcoming global variant of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ ahead of any official announcement.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ spotted on FCC

The new smartphone had surfaced on FCC certification. It was spotted carrying the model number 23090RA98G. Furthermore, the online listing has revealed the storage options of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+. This device will apparently come in three storage configurations, including 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB. The smartphone is also expected to run on Android 13 OS based MIUI 14 custom skin out of the box.

The FCC listing revealed that the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ will support 5G and 4G LTE networking along with dual band WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, and GPS. Earlier today, we reported on the base Note 13 model also surfacing on the FCC platform. The Redmi Note 13 Pro model has also surfaced on Korea’s NRRA certification earlier this week.

Based on what we know so far, the device sports a tall 6.67-inch AMOLED display that supports FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. Under the hood, it is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra SoC. A large 5,000mAh battery pack powers this handset, which supports an impressive 120W fast charging. The rear packs a 200-megapixel triple camera setup, while the front houses a 16-megapixel selfie shooter.

The post Redmi Note 13 Pro+ surfaces on FCC, global launch imminent appeared first on Gizmochina.

Honestly, when I was writing this script for the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, I often thought of a phone we’ve reviewed before: the realme 11 Pro+. There are so many similarities between them, such as they both have vegan leather back covers, 200 MP main cameras, and they both only sell for around $300. That realme 11 Pro+ is no longer in our hands, but the tested data is still there. So can the Note 13 Pro+ beat this phone released four months ago? let’s check it out.

Performance & Gaming

If a Redmi Note model doesn’t have a T in its name, then the performance is usually poor. But this time the Note 13 Pro+ performance is a bit better than expected. It’s not as strong as the Note 12 Turbo, but it’s better than last year’s 12 Pro+ and realme 11 Pro+. The long-term output of Note 13 Pro+ doesn’t seem to be a problem either, its gaming experience should theoretically be better, and it is. But the frame rate advantage doesn’t look as big as the score shows. In fact, I don’t feel that the frame rate advantage is significant, the gaming experience is on the same level.

So the Dimensity 7200-Ultra on the 13 Pro+ didn’t help at all? Not really. After all, if you’re going to record video in 4K resolution, then the support of EIS makes footage smoother. And the realme 11 Pro+ can’t do that.

Camera

Like the realme 11 Pro+, the Note 13 Pro+ replaces the telephoto camera with a super high-megapixel primary camera, which is a great way to go for a mid-range phone. The HP3 is a great sensor, even if it doesn’t take 200MP photos, it’s still one of the best.

But here are a couple of caveats you need to know: first, if you need to take a photo of an object from a certain distance, try to zoom in before you take the photo, rather than using a 200MP photo to crop it yourself. In these two images, you will see that manual zoom is much sharper.

Second, the lower the light, the weaker the zoom ability. If you feel that it is dark, then try to avoid zooming in more than 2 times to take pictures, otherwise the picture quality will crash very badly.

Third, the night mode will improve the dynamic range, but not the sharpness. To get sharper photos after zooming, use Auto mode instead of night mode.

Fourthly, the purple-fringing issue of the main camera is very noticeable, and it has a bug. I am pretty sure what I photographed is not a Christmas tree, but the way it flickered around really made me laugh. Every tree can be a Christmas tree if you take a picture of it like I did. This is probably the biggest problem with the current software version of the Note 13 Pro+.

Display

Since TCL’s display panels have gotten better and better, the display we use on the budget phone has gotten better too. Although you’ve probably heard it many times before, I’d still say it’s the best screen I’ve seen in its price range. It’s top-notch in terms of both peak brightness and color calibration. Various eye protection features are also present, and it’s even got various certifications from TÜV Rheinland.

But for me personally, it would be nice if it was a straight screen because curved screens can never skip the problem of greenish edges.

Design

We didn’t get to see the vegan leather version of the Note 13 Pro+ in the Unboxing and Hands-on videos. But now you have it. I don’t know what you guys think, but I think this Note 13 Pro+ is the most beautiful Redmi phone I’ve ever seen.

But it seems that the vegan leather is softer or has more cavities inside, and the back cover resonance can be noticeable when the volume is high. I don’t really think it’s a big issue, maybe Redmi just intentionally made the back cover part of the speaker as well. Speaking of speakers, this time the Note 13 Pro+ comes with AAC’s 2-in-1 speaker motor part – Combo. this speaker not only saves space for the vibration motor inside but also gets more bass and more volume. I have a feeling that more and more phones will use such speakers in the future.

Battery & Charging

Although the Note 13 Pro+ has 120W of charging power, it can also be fully charged in 23 minutes. Compared to realme 11 Pro+, only in the first fifteen minutes when Note 13 Pro+ have a slight advantage. The price we need to pay for better performance is worse battery life, or perhaps the system is not yet optimized, Anyway, so far the battery life of the 13 Pro+ is not considered excellent.

Conclusion

Unsurprisingly, the Note 13 Pro is a great phone to buy. There’s not much to complain about except that the performance and battery life is a bit worse than some certain phones. After all, budget phones always have trade-offs. It has better performance than realme 11 Pro+, better speakers and motors, and IP68. so out of the two phones, I would recommend the Note 13 Pro+.

The post Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus Full Review: A good looking phone is a good phone. appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last week, Redmi took wraps off the Redmi Note 13 series in China. The lineup includes three models, a standard and two pros.

These new phones come with meaningful upgrades. The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus, in particular, raises the bar too high for the Redmi Note lineup

The most premium model offers many flagship-level features. This is a far cry from what the series used to stand for.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus is more of an affordable premium smartphone despite carrying a mid-range price tag (~$275). Let’s check out what makes it this way.

Simple yet attractive design

The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus sports a curved display on the front and a curved panel on the back. Depending on the color you opt for, the rear panel is either glass or vegan leather.

The glass variants come in classy black and white colors. While the vegan leather version has a four-tone finish.

All three rear cameras sit inside islands of their own. The horizontal LED flashlight and the Redmi branding below it are located on the right side of the cameras.

These three elements are separated by lines. Xiaomi uses similar lines to separate individual cameras on the Xiaomi 13 series and Xiaomi 12 series.

Further, the front of the device is equipped with a curved display. This screen has a centered punch-hole and minimal bezels all around.

The power and volume keys are present on the right side. Whereas, the USB Type-C port and SIM card slot are at the bottom. There’s no headphone jack (first on a Redmi Note device) but you get an IR blaster at the top.

Impressive display

The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus is the first Redmi Note series phone to arrive with a curved display. It sports a 6.67-inch OLED panel featuring C7 luminescent material.

The 12-bit screen offers a 1.5K resolution (2712 x 1220 pixels), which is a first for a Redmi Note series handset. The display has 446 PPI, 120Hz refresh rate, 2160Hz instant touch sampling rate, and even 1920Hz PWM dimming for eye protection.

The screen can over 100% of the DCI-P3 color space. It can play both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision content. The typical and peak brightness levels are rated at 1200 and 1800 nits, respectively.

Finally, the display even has a fingerprint sensor underneath it, which is again a first for a Redmi Note device. This sensor can be even used to measure heart rate.

Miscellaneous premium features

The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus is the first-ever Redmi Note to have an IP68 rating. Thus, the product is dust and water-resistant. It can theoretically last under 1.5 meters of fresh water for 30 minutes.

Further, it flaunts a customized version of the 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HP3 camera sensor. This 1/1.4″ sensor supports OIS and is paired with an ALD anti-glare coated lens.

Lastly, apart from Xiaomi’s proprietary 120W charging standard, the handset also supports USB PD 3.0 and 2.0. It even ships with a GaN charger along with a double-sided USB Type-C cable.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ was launched earlier this month in China alongside the Redmi Note 13 Pro and the vanilla Note 13. The handset is also expected to launch globally but there’s no official confirmation as of now. While we wait, the Note 13 Pro+ has bagged Singapore’s IMDA certification, hinting at an imminent launch.

Two new Redmi smartphones with the model numbers 23090RA98G and 23016RN0DA have been spotted on the IMDA certification website in Singapore. Since model number 23090RA98C belongs to the China variant of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, model number 23090RA98G should correspond to the handset’s global variant. IMDA did not reveal any specifications of the handset but hinted at an imminent launch.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ Specifications

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ is a premium offering from Redmi, bringing solid specifications and even an IP68 rating. We already unboxed the handset to give you its first impressions and answered important questions that you might have about it. Design-wise, the Note 13 Pro+ is one of the better-looking Redmi Note phones. It has a curved 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1,800 nits peak brightness.

The handset packs a 200MP primary camera on the rear, paired with an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP third shooter. Powering the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra processor with up to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage. It is fueled by a 5,000mAh battery, which supports 120W fast charging. Wireless charging would have made the Note 13 Pro+ an even more enticing offering. The handset starts at  CNY 1,999 ($273) in China for the 12GB + 256GB option.

Two days ago, we collected some questions from our fans about their Redmi Note 13 series. After my hands-on experience in the Xiaomi Store yesterday, I think I can now answer those questions. This article is not just an Unboxing or Hands-on but also a Q&A about the Note 13 series. Before I answer those questions, let me unbox it first.

Unboxing

Most base card pins and manuals haven’t changed in any way, we’re all used to that. But the phone case has turned into a black silicone material this time. It feels much better than the previous transparent case and it doesn’t turn yellow due to oxidation. I hope all Redmi phones will come with this case in the future.

The charger and charging cable are also pretty ordinary. Without further ado, let’s get right to the questions.

Q&A

A: Let’s start with the Pro+ version, where the most basic upgrades are of course the primary camera and the processor. But apart from these two basic upgrades, there are some very pretty or useful upgrade points, such as a better-looking curved screen, with a small curved area.

The protective glass is also Corning Victus and it works even if your fingers are wet. Most importantly, it’s IP68 certified. This makes the Ace 2 Pro, which also has this feature but doesn’t have IP68 and is more expensive, a little bit embarrassing. The display resolution and maximum brightness have also been upgraded, and the screen fingerprint has been switched from the side to the under-screen. In short, it’s just as good as the one on the Redmi K60 Ultra.

Although it’s a curved screen, the bezel is partially flat though. This makes it look and feel very much like the Xiaomi 13 Ultra from the front. It’s really hard to believe that a $260 phone can be so premium.

As for the Redmi Note 13 Pro, it’s not as impressive. The processor has been upgraded to a 4nm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, and the screen has been upgraded to the same panel and protective glass as the Pro+. The back cover has been switched from plastic to glass, also with under-screen fingerprint recognition. The specs are also excellent, though the design is significantly weaker than that of the Pro+.

A: Well, I’ll answer the first question later, let me answer the second and third first.

The most obvious difference between the two versions is the look. I didn’t get that color-blocked vegan leather version, but I’m sure you can get a sense of how good it looks by viewing the pictures. That white version is also very nice, and if you hate vegan leather, this colorway is a good choice.

The Pro version, on the other hand, is obviously a much-blanded design, and only that new color looks better. And no vegan leather version.

The second difference is the processor, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ is the Dimensity 7200-Ultra and the Pro version is the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2. Both are first-time available on the phone. We will go in-depth about it later. The third difference is in the charging power. Like the Note 12 series, the Pro+ is still 120W and the Pro version is still only 67W, but the battery of the Pro version is slightly bigger.

The third question is really hard to answer. As I just said, the Pro+ has IP68 and Corning Victus glass, which should make it more durable than other phones. The Pro version doesn’t have IP68 certification though. So if you want to use it for 3 years or more, the Pro+ version would be a better choice I think.

A: I installed Antutu on the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus. the scores as you can see are just average for a mid-range phone. But the Dimensity 7200-Ultra on the Pro+ is about 46% better compared to the Note 12 Pro+, which is arguably a huge improvement.

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 in the Pro doesn’t look so good though. This processor doesn’t have much to do with the 7+ Gen 2, it’s more of an upgrade from the 778G. Since it is manufactured in 4 nm at Samsung, don’t expect too much performance from it.

A: Thanks to the better processor used in the Pro+, it does support 4K EIS. We didn’t get our hands on the Redmi Note 13 Pro, but based on the performance of the processor, the odds are that the Pro version doesn’t support EIS for 4K recording.

A: We’ve just talked about performance, so let’s talk about the camera. 200MP photos are actually pretty good overall, except for a little bit of a reduction in dynamic range. I don’t think it’s the quality of the photos that stops people from taking photos in 200MP mode though, it’s the size of the photos. 200MP photos are 15 times the size of a 12MP photo, and that’s pretty terrifying. So for the most part, the 200 MP mode photos remain a gimmick. This high-megapixel sensor only shows its strengths when zooming.

The main camera is good enough, in fact, what really disappoints me is this perpetual 8 MP Ultra-wide camera and 2 MP Macro camera.

A: I don’t know. I really don’t know. Even if I know the answer, it’s a trade secret. Some media leaked Xiaomi’s new phone before and compensated Xiaomi a million RMB, I don’t want to be that person. Moreover, I really don’t know.

A: There are no bad phones, only bad prices. No doubt the price makes them very, very good phones. I’d recommend you guys get the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus more. Aside from the fact that the Pro+ version is even better in every way, there’s another reason that the processor upgrade on the Pro version is so small.

This year’s Redmi Note 13 Pro+ has gotten more beautiful, more powerful, and more durable. As long as you’re not a heavy gamer, you can’t go wrong buying it. At least you can’t get a better phone for the same price.

On the imaging front, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ is equipped with a 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HP3 1/1.4-inch sensor. There is an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP third shooter.

The smartphone is backed by a 5,000 mAh battery unit with support for 120W fast charging. Software-wise, it runs on MIUI 14 based on Android 13 out of the box. Connectivity options on the device include USB-C port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, IR Blaster, 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, NFC, and more.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ pricing

Redmi has made an official announcement about the Redmi Note 13 Pro+, revealing that it now comes with IP68 dust and water resistance, making it the first Redmi Note series phone to come with such an IP rating. According to well-known Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station, the extra opening at the top of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ serves as a pressure relief valve, which plays a crucial role in achieving the IP68 dustproof and waterproof rating.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ IP68 rating details

Redmi’s General Manager, Lu Weibing, recently penned a detailed article explaining the three key improvements made to achieve the IP68 rating for the Redmi Note 13 Pro+. These enhancements include the following changes:

1. Structural Reinforcement: The phone includes 19 custom structural components, such as multi-layer screen protection, a double-layer back cover, and sealed details like the SIM card holder and ejector pin hole.
2. Internal Strength: It features Corning Gorilla Victus Glass and reinforced key structures with a high-strength aluminium alloy frame, strengthened corners, and a thicker motherboard. Stainless steel and polymer buffer glue improve drop resistance.
3. Rigorous Testing: The Redmi Note 13 Pro+ underwent 10 extra airtightness tests, including Type-C boards, earpieces/speakers, and frame components, ensuring 100 percent compliance with the IP68 standard.

Redmi has already confirmed that the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ features the Dimensity 7200 Ultra processor, built on TSMC’s 4nm process. As per the TENAA listing, the device is expected to arrive with up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of storage. It is expected to pack a 5,120mAh battery with 120W fast charging support.

In earlier teasers, Xiaomi announced that the Redmi Note 13 Pro series features a 200-megapixel Samsung HP3 Discovery Edition main camera sensor. The device is also equipped with a curved-edge AMOLED display that offers a 1.5K resolution on the front. The screen also supports a peak brightness of 1800 nits, 1920Hz high-frequency dimming, and an in-screen fingerprint scanner.

Redmi is gearing up to launch the Note 13 series on 21 September in China. Earlier this month, the Redmi Note 13 series models appeared in TENAA’s database, revealing some key information about the device.

Now, according to a recent Weibo post, the company has shared a couple of camera photo samples with its 200-megapixel primary camera. Let’s go ahead and take a look at the sample images.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ camera shots and travel filters

As we can see from the camera shots above, these images were captured using the Redmi Note 13 Pro+. It appears that the company is making efforts to enhance camera quality and optical image stabilization (OIS). The post also mentions the inclusion of travel filters to improve image aesthetics. These filters include Warm Green, Forest Green, Negative, and Vivid, each offering unique textures and visual effects. It’s worth noting that the Pro+ variant is rumored to feature a leather back with raised camera rings, while the Pro model has a glass back with a raised camera island.

Furthermore, the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ will come equipped with a 5,120mAh battery and 120W fast charging support. Under the hood, Pro+ will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 7200-Ultra chip.

On the other hand, the Redmi Note 13 Pro variant has been recently listed on the Geekbench website with model number 2312CRAD3C. The listing shows that the 13 Pro is running on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 SoC and has 16GB of RAM. As for the display, Redmi has previously stated that the smartphone features a flat AMOLED display with a 5,000mAh battery and 67W fast charging.

The Redmi Note series is one of the most popular smartphone lineups worldwide. Earlier this month, the next-gen Redmi Notes were confirmed to debut soon. A few days back, the brand revealed that the launch is happening this week.

Apart from disclosing the launch date, Redmi has also been teasing the features of its upcoming phones. Other than official teasers, we have been learning about these devices from other sources, such as leaks and certifications.

Here in this article, we have compiled everything that’s known about the forthcoming Redmi Note 13 series in one place. Let’s go through the details.

Redmi Note 13 Series Launch Date

The Redmi Note 13 series is scheduled to launch in China on September 21. It will be announced at a conference that will begin at 7 PM GMT+8.

Officially, Redmi has confirmed three devices, namely Redmi Note 13 Pro, Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus, and Redmi Note 13 Yibo Edition. However, we are expecting the vanilla Redmi Note 13 as well, even though the information regarding it is bleak.

Either way, if you are interested in watching the event, it will be live-streamed on Weibo and other leading Chinese video streaming platforms.

Redmi Note 13 Series Design

The Redmi Note 13 series will arrive with a different design compared to the Redmi Note 12 lineup. The new design will not be totally different as the similarity between the previous-gen design will be there.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro will retain the glass sandwich build with a flat frame. However, the camera island will be inspired by the Xiaomi 13 series but with protruding modules.

On the other hand, the camera placement on the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus will be similar to the Redmi Note 12 Turbo. But it will have a curved display and a faux leather back. The Redmi Note 13 Yibo will likely be based on it with some variations in terms of color and pattern.

Unfortunately, we have no details on the design of the Redmi Note 13.

Redmi Note 13 Series Specifications

The Redmi Note 13 Pro and the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus will flaunt 1.5K OLED displays. This makes them the first Redmi Notes to sport a screen with more than FHD+ resolution. Also, they will be the first Redmi Notes to come with an in-screen fingerprint sensor.

Additionally, the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus will be the first Redmi Note to feature a curved display. Its screen will offer 1800 nits peak brightness level,1920Hz PWM dimming, and DC dimming. In other words, these handsets will arrive with multiple firsts in the display department.

Further, Redmi has officially confirmed the chips powering these phones. The MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra and Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 will be present inside the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus and Redmi Note 13 Pro, respectively.

Both Pro models will sport a custom version of the 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HP3 Discovery Edition sensor. However, for some reason, only the Pro Plus version will have OIS (Optical Image Stabilization).

As for energy, the Redmi Note 13 Pro will be backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 67W charging. While the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus will house a 5,120mAh battery with 120W charging support.

Since the Redmi Note 13 Yibo is expected to be based on the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus, it will have the same specs as the latter. Whereas, we don’t have any info on the Redmi Note 13.

Redmi Note 13 Series Expected Price

The Redmi Note 13 series may start around ¥1,200 (~$165) for the vanilla model. While the Pro and Pro Plus variants could begin at ¥1,700 (~$235) and ¥2,200 (~$300), respectively.

These prices are based on the launch pricing of the Redmi Note 12 series from 2022. So they may not be accurate as the new-gen models will come with many upgrades.

Since Xiaomi is known for disruptive pricing, especially in China we wouldn’t be surprised if the Redmi Note 13 series cost about the same as the Redmi Note 12 series or just a little more.

Redmi has officially announced that it will announce the Redmi Note 13 series in China this month. The brand’s newest poster highlights the key features of the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G in particular. It also reveals that the Note 13 series will be a collaborative effort between Redmi, Samsung, and MediaTek.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ key features

The Redmi Note 13 series is said to include at least three models, such as the Note 13, Note 13 Pro, and the Note 13 Pro+. The poster specifically talks about the key features of the Pro+. As per the poster, the primary camera model used in the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ will be a custom version of the 200-megapixel Samsung ISOCELL HP3 Discovery Edition camera sensor, featuring a substantial 1/1.4-inch sensor size.

It is poised to be the fastest 200-megapixel ultra-clear camera in the industry. As per reports, the Note 13 Pro may also feature a 200-megapixel camera. Lu Weibeing, Redmi’s General Manager, emphasized that this series will, once again, push the limits of imaging capabilities for affordable smartphones, marking a substantial leap in image quality standards within the mobile phone industry.

To achieve this, Redmi has worked closely with MediaTek, conducting thorough joint optimizations to revamp the foundational imaging architecture and enhance both software and hardware capabilities. Furthermore, by integrating Xiaomi’s imaging technologies, such as “bionic perception” and “fusion optics” modules, the Note 13 lineup is all set to offer a top-notch photography experience.

The above poster also confirms that the Note 13 Pro+ will also be the first device to come equipped with the newly announced 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7200-Ultra. As per the reports, the D7200U has an eight-core CPU architecture, which comprises 2 x Cortex-A715 cores running at a clock speed of 2.8 GHz, along with 6 x Cortex-A510 cores.

Redmi‘s new Note 13 series models have begun to surface online, with multiple appearances on various certification sites. The Note 13 series is expected to launch sometime this winter. While we eagerly await the official release, both the Redmi Note 13 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro models have recently surfaced on TENAA. This Chinese authority has unveiled the key specifications of these upcoming phones.

The forthcoming Redmi Note 13 Pro and Pro+ smartphones have received certification from the Telecommunication Equipment Certification Administration (TENAA) in China. The two phones have model numbers 23090RA98C and 2312DRA50C. However, it is not yet known which model number corresponds to which phone.

Both smartphones have 5G connectivity and the same size measuring 161 x 74 mm. Xiaomi includes 6.67-inch OLED displays with 2,712 x 1,220 pixels resolution on the two phones. If previous rumors are to be believed, the handsets will offer a 144Hz refresh rate. TENAA suggests the upcoming Redmi Note 13 series phones will be equipped with two different processors with clock speeds of 2.4GHz and 2.8GHz. They might be equipped with Dimensity 9200 Plus.

The Note 13 Pro is said to be offered in 6GB, 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB of RAM, as well as storage options of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and a whopping 1TB. The handset might weigh in at 187 grams. Powering the smartphone could be a 5160mAh (typical) rated battery.

In contrast, the Note 13 Pro+ could also be available with a staggering 18GB of RAM, alongside storage choices of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. The Pro+ variant will likely be supported by a 5000mAh (typical) rated battery. Both smartphones could feature a triple rear camera setup, headlined by a mighty 200MP primary sensor. This primary sensor might be complemented by an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP macro lens.

Judging by the specifications, the phones should offer good bounce for the ounce. However, it’s wise to take these preliminary specifications with a pinch of salt.

The post Alleged Redmi Note 13 Pro and Note 13 Pro+ key specifications leaked via TENAA appeared first on Gizmochina.

Redmi is reportedly working on the Redmi Note 13 series of smartphones for the Chinese market. Some reports have claimed that the brand may announce it in October in China. The lineup is expected to include at least three models, such as the Redmi Note 13, Redmi Note 13 Pro, and Redmi Note 13 Pro+. In a new leak, tipster Digital Chat Station has seemingly mentioned some of the specs of the Note 13 Pro+.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ key specifications (rumored)

Among the Redmi Note 12 lineup, only the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ model featured a 200-megapixel camera. In the latest leak, the tipster can be seen talking about a mid-range phone featuring a 200-megapixel camera, which appears to be the successor to the Redmi Note 12 Pro+. Hence, it appears that the leaker could be talking about the Redmi Note 13 Pro+.

As per the leak, the 200-megapixel camera of the alleged Redmi Note 13 Pro+ will offer a 4x in-sensor zoom. In addition, the device will pack a 5,000mAh battery that supports 120W fast charging.

However, the major revelation in the latest leak is that it could be Redmi’s first curved-edge display phone. The screen is expected to support a 1.5K resolution. While the leaker did not mention anything else about the screen, it is mostly likely to support a 120Hz refresh rate.

Shown above is a schematic of the purported Redmi Note 13 Pro. The entire Note 13 lineup may sport an identical design. While the Note 13 and Note 13 Pro will feature a flat display, the Note 13 Pro+ could be equipped with a curved-edge screen. Readers are advised to digest with a pinch of salt and wait for more reports to confirm the key specs of the Note 13 Pro+.

Now, the brand is working on the next generation of mid-range devices called the Redmi Note 13 series. The base variant of the device has already emerged on the EEC certification website, and now, a new leak has revealed what the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus could look like.

Known leaker Digital Chat Station has revealed (now deleted) a design schematic of the alleged Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus. It reveals that the device will have a rear panel design similar to the Xiaomi 13. The square camera island will hold three camera cutouts and the fourth cutout will likely be for the LED flash. The leaker also mentions that the device will have a flat display and super narrow bezels.

Previous leaks have mentioned that the device will feature a 6.7-inch display and MIUI 15 operating system, based on Android 14. To get an idea of what to expect from the next-gen Pro Plus model, let’s take a look at the spec sheet of the Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus.

Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus specs

The Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus features a 6.67-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2,400 x 1,080 pixels (FHD+), a 120Hz refresh rate, a 240Hz touch sampling rate, a 1920Hz PWM dimming, and a 16,000 level dimming. It has a centered punch-hole for the front camera.

We recently learned that Xiaomi has started preparing MIUI 15 builds for its devices. Now, a reliable tipster reveals the smartphones that will launch with the upcoming version of MIUI.

The source discloses four phones that will ship with next-gen MIUI. He even mentions a highlight of these handsets. Let’s go through the details.

According to Digital Chat Station, the Redmi Note 13 series and the Xiaomi 14 series will be pre-installed with MIUI 15. As per him, these lineups will include at least two devices each.

Further, he tells that the Xiaomi 14 handsets sport model numbers N2 and N3. We think that they will be likely called Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro.

Finally, the leaker mentions that all of these smartphones will be equipped with narrow bezel displays. He revealed the same last week as well.

Unfortunately, that’s all he has to say about these forthcoming phones from Xiaomi. But we are looking forward to learning more about them in the coming weeks.
