Redmi Note 13 Pro+ Unveils a New Look with Leather Back and Special Edition

This year, Xiaomi decides to change the design style for the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ significantly compared to its predecessor. Specifically, this phone is crafted based on a square frame but has been elegantly curved at the edges, making it slimmer and more compact. As a result, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ gives the impression of being a premium device rather than a typical mid-range one.

Moreover, the back of Redmi Note 13 Pro+ is meticulously crafted from glass, providing a luxurious and glossy appearance. Additionally, the curved design of the back promises to deliver a comfortable grip. In terms of basic colors, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ comes in 2 colors, Black and White, showcasing simplicity and elegance. Furthermore, this phone also features a special edition made from leather with 4 additional colors displayed above it. Thanks to this, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ stands out with a striking appearance compared to its predecessor and many competitors in the same segment.

Redmi Note has long been acknowledged as a product tailored for the youth, and this message is even more prominently conveyed in the Redmi Note 12 Series. This year, the brand aims to amplify this dynamic and youthful spirit further through the special edition called Redmi Note 13 Pro+ AAPE Edition. This exclusive version is a collaboration with the fashion brand BAPE, evident in the distinctive Camo patterns on the back. Therefore, it promises to be a must-have item for many young enthusiasts.

In addition, the camera cluster of Redmi Note 13 Pro+ protrudes from the back, creating a harmonious, seamless, and continuous feel. However, it's not entirely accurate to say that the design of the camera cluster on Redmi Note 13 Pro+ is entirely new, as it still features the cat-eye camera setup from the predecessor Redmi Note 12 Pro+, minus the frame. If you pay attention, you'll notice that the upper part of the back has slightly darker coloring, suggesting Xiaomi's emphasis on the device's camera capabilities.

Turning to the front, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ features a dual-curved display with slim and even bezels all around. Thanks to this, the product delivers a modern and premium feel when looked at and provides a wide and comfortable viewing angle for users. Xiaomi has also equipped this phone with Gorilla Glass Victus for added user reassurance.

In terms of display quality, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ boasts a 6.67-inch OLED screen, operating at a maximum brightness of 1,800 nits and a resolution of up to 1.5K (2,712 x 1,220 pixels). This ensures high detail, vibrant colors, and excellent contrast for all content displayed, whether you're working or enjoying entertainment. Additionally, the screen features a 120 Hz refresh rate, enhancing the smoothness of touch gestures.

This year, Xiaomi emphasizes durability more for Redmi Note 13 Pro+. Therefore, the device is equipped with the IP68 water and dust resistance standard, a feature highly praised for providing peace of mind in rainy weather or accidental water exposure. This is a feature that I highly appreciate as it adds an extra layer of protection to the device.

Redmi Note 13 Pro+ continues to shine with its 200 MP camera

This year, Xiaomi continues to equip Redmi Note 13 Pro+ with a 200 MP camera, similar to the previous generation but with improvements for better performance. Before delving into details, let's quickly go through the camera specifications for reference:

• Main Camera: 200 MP resolution, Samsung HP3 sensor, f/1.4 aperture.
• Ultra-Wide Camera: 8 MP resolution.
• Macro Camera: 2 MP resolution.
• Selfie Camera: 16 MP resolution.

The primary camera of Redmi Note 13 Pro+ this year precisely utilizes new hardware (Samsung HP3 + Optical Image Stabilization), combined with leading algorithms (Xiaomi Imaging Brain). This allows the device to achieve optical-level zooming capabilities without loss of data. In other words, when zooming in on a photo captured by the 200 MP camera of Redmi Note 13 Pro+, post-processing won't compromise image quality too much.

Thanks to this, the output image quality of Redmi Note 13 Pro+ becomes stunning, clear, and much more impressive in color compared to the previous generation.

The octa-core CPU architecture includes 2 Arm Cortex-A715 cores with a clock speed of 2.8 GHz and 6 Cortex-A510 cores, bringing significant improvements. Additionally, the Dimensity 7200 Ultra is equipped with the MediaTek HyperEngine 5.0 gaming processor, supporting AI-VRS for display, intelligent control, and more. Thanks to this, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ can handle all your usage needs from basic to advanced without much difficulty.

Furthermore, Xiaomi has added a new VC cooling system to Redmi Note 13 Pro+ for smooth and cool operation, especially during heavy tasks like high-performance gaming. Moreover, the product offers 3 configuration levels to support the power of Dimensity 7200 Ultra: 12 GB RAM + 256 GB internal storage, 12 GB RAM + 512 GB internal storage, 16 GB RAM + 512 GB internal storage. Therefore, the product allows for smooth multitasking, app switching, and ample storage.

Moreover, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ receives energy from a 5,000 mAh battery, a popular capacity across smartphone segments. Therefore, the product can provide you with a long usage time of approximately 1 - 2 days (depending on individual needs). Additionally, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ supports fast charging with a power of 120 W, ensuring your charging wait time is minimal.
