On February 26, one of the most well-known Android flagship phones is scheduled to go on sale in India. The Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi has recently announced that it would introduce the Xiaomi 13 Pro in India in the coming weeks. The phone, which debuted in China in December 2022 and replaces the Xiaomi 12 Pro, features the most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, cameras supported by Leica, and many other features. Let’s examine the Xiaomi 13 Pro’s features and specifications in more detail.
Xiaomi 13 Pro: Features and Specifications
The company claims that on February 26 at 9:30 p.m., the Xiaomi 13 Pro will go on sale. Additionally, it will have a worldwide debut at 5:30 GMT, just in time for MWC 2023. Through social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter, as well as Xiaomi’s own website, the event will be live-streamed.
It is anticipated that the Indian model would share characteristics with the Chinese model. The Xiaomi 13 Pro model is available in China with a large 6.7-inch OLED screen that supports a 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+. The screen has a QHD+ resolution and is covered by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.
The Xiaomi 13 Pro sports a sizable square camera hump at the rear and a distinct appearance from its predecessor. The construction contains nano-biological ceramic components. Peak brightness on the phone is 1900 nits, and it supports up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
Additionally, Xiaomi states that the 13 Pro incorporates an ambient color temperature sensor that enables the device to automatically change the screen’s color temperature in response to lighting conditions. The display even supports LTPO technology, which enables the device to intelligently alter the refresh rate based on content, resulting in a little longer battery life. On paper, it appears to have a fairly impressive display.
With a 50MP primary camera, a 50MP telephoto lens, and a 5MP ultra-wide lens on a 1-inch Sony IMX989 sensor, Xiaomi has one of the greatest “hardware camera” capabilities. Leica Native Dual Image Quality, Leica’s color science, Leica filters, and more are among Leica’s secrets. A 32-megapixel camera is located on the front to take high-quality selfies.
For biometric authentication, there is a fingerprint sensor underneath the display. The Xiaomi 13 Pro has a sizable 4,820mAh battery inside. Xiaomi included a 120W charger in the package, in contrast to major tech companies like Apple and Samsung which no longer include one with phones. The top model of the phone even supports 50W wireless charging. The most recent MIUI 14 for Android 13 is preinstalled on the 13 Pro.
Xiaomi 13 Pro Expected Pricing
It’s unclear if Xiaomi’s basic Xiaomi 13 will be released in India given that the company often introduces the Pro variants of its premium smartphones there. When converted, the initial selling price of the Xiaomi 13 Pro in China was CNY 4,999, or around Rs 59,200 in India. Around India, the premium phone is anticipated to cost in the same ballpark. But I anticipate the Xiaomi 13 Pro could possibly be priced at under Rs 70,000, but we won’t know for sure till the event.
