More on the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro
Of the Xiaomi 13 series, there’s the regular Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro. The display of the Xiaomi 13 is a flat one with very minimal bezel and sharp edges. Although this might be a new design from Xiaomi, it’s a familiar setup. Yes, the memories are fresh from his new generation of the iPhone series – flat and sharp.
That said, it isn’t all “iphoney” as Xiaomi adds a slight curve at the back of the smartphone so you can easily get a hold of the phone. The center camera punch hole is located at the top amidst the ever-sleek display. Xiaomi 13 measures 152.8 x 71.5 x 8.3 mm, although the camera bump takes the thickness up to 10.3mm. According to reports, the Xiaomi 13 is said to house the sleek Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 making it one of the first sets of smartphones to take up this chip.
The Xiaomi 13 Pro measures 163 x 74.6 x 8.8 mm and the camera bump takes the thickness up by 3 mm. This measurement makes the new smartphone shorter than its predecessor, although thicker (by 0.6mm) and with the same width.
Unlike the Xiaomi 13, the Xiaomi 13 Pro takes up a curved display and the centre camera cutout is seen at the top amidst the ever-sleek display. Back to the camera, Xiaomi noticeably decided to go with a similar rear camera setup to the Mi 11 Ultra in this series. Just like the regular Xiaomi 13, the Xiaomi 13 Pro will be housing the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and the duo is IP68 rated.
