Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus Review: The Most Premium Redmi Yet
Xiaomi's budget sub-brand Redmi is known for making affordable phones (only BBK Group's Realme can really compete), and Redmi's latest Note series bucks that trend with a range of phones that include are a portion of the prices each seems to be. designed. go on Attract more budget consumers in Southeast Asia or Latin America, as well as parts of Europe. However, the Note 13 Pro Plus is the best model that caught my attention because it is the most attractive and tactile phone from Redmi.
The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus has a curved OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and it feels as good as curved panels on $1,000 phones. The 2712 x 1200 resolution and 1800 nits brightness are high for a budget Redmi phone.
The back panel of the phone, in my opinion, looks great with the pastel colors and swirl pattern.
There's a 200-megapixel camera (from Samsung with a 1/1.4-inch image sensor), Gorilla Glass Victus protection, and a large 5,000mAh battery. Currently, all these components are premium. Areas where the phone falls back into mid-range territory are Mediatek's mid-range Dimensity 7200 Ultra chip, below-average ultra-wide camera, lack of zoom lens and performance rating. Official IP waterproofing. Still, the Mediatek processor is powerful enough for everyday use, and the phone's $380 price tag (converted from Indian retail price) means you can't really complain.
The main camera in particular does a good job of using the 16-in-1 pixel stack to produce images that are well above its price range. The shutter speed is a bit slower than some of the better flagship phones I've used, so there's some blur when shooting at night. But for this price of the phone there is nothing to complain about.
Battery life lasts all day and Xiaomi's software has the smoothest animations. All in all, it's the most premium Redmi phone ever, and the closest a $400 phone comes to a flagship phone.
