Introducing the Redmi Note 13 5G, a device that might catch your eye with its name, but surprises with its simplicity. Despite its moniker suggesting an advancement over its 4G predecessor, this model stands out as the most fundamental in the lineup.
In terms of design, the Redmi Note 13 5G follows the familiar aesthetic of its siblings, a trend that’s no surprise. Sporting a predominantly flat profile, this smartphone comes in a range of colors and boasts IP54-rated ingress protection, ensuring durability against the elements.
The Redmi Note 13 5G boasts a 6.67-inch AMOLED panel, matching the size of its Note counterparts. With a 1080p resolution and a speedy 120Hz refresh rate, this display promises crisp visuals. In select markets, users may also enjoy a 10-bit color depth for enhanced color accuracy.
Under the hood, the device is driven by the MediaTek 6080 5G chipset, offering swift performance. It comes in two common configurations: 6GB RAM + 128GB storage and 8GB RAM + 256GB storage, both expandable via microSD.
On the rear, the Note 13 5G houses a trio of cameras: a 108MP primary lens, an 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. Notably absent is a macro camera found in the 4G variant.
In terms of additional features, there’s no stereo speaker setup or an under-display fingerprint scanner. This lack of extras positions the Note 13 as the most basic model in the lineup, despite its pricing not necessarily reflecting that.
Finally, the Redmi Note 13 5G sports a 5,000mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging. And it runs on Android 13 with MIUI 14.
