Watching it on my Xiaomi 13 pro! It's an amazing phone. The camera is phenomenal. Combine that with a powerful af processor and gorgeous display. As someone who plays heavy games for straight 5hrs or so, i have never faced any heating or lag issues. There are times when I was at awe at the display especially when viewing high contrast images or colours And my personal favorite, the bloody charging speed! U have no idea how convenient it is. It's one of the best features besides the camera. The build quality....is superb and looks stunning. One issue i have faced is that sometimes the notification bar gets locked and doesn't come down when slide down. I think its an issue when u apply different themes.

[@KL-wp8ip]

The latter is the miui issue, it happens on all Xiaomi phones!

[@DwightHalpert]

i am obsessed with phones that produce photos with natural colors. xiaomi 13 is really far from that, but man, i love what they did with it! I don't care about the colors anymore with this phone. its photos are so good that each one has its own personality. it saves me time from all the editing. perfect!

[@Sebycretzu]

i have xiaomi note 10, its old now but still delivers top performance for my daily needs, NFS, GPS, turbo charge, 108mp camera, alll there. and the battery after 5 years still holds a whole day. So happy with it

[@asnawiabdulshukor]

Yes I agree about the charging speed. It's really important. I have a Realme and an iPhone. I don't even have to worry about not charging my Realme overnight but with iPhone, I really need that 'strategic planning' 😂

[@donhosbf]

Just picked up the 13. My third Xiaomi. All models were Global. and never had an issue with updates. More of an issue of glitchy phones that need correction. The charging speed and small size are what sold me on this. I did run a 3d mark test and it maxed out.

[@LeoLei-vq8ht]

I own not only the Xiaomi 13 but also a xiaomi tablet and xiaomi earbuds. Apart form the amount of hardware you expect form xiaomi products, it also amazes me the way their devices working together. You can switch your earbuds to tablet by dragging an icon, copy a text and paste using any of your devices around, open your phone app straight from your tablet, etc. I'd say it's not as good as how Apple devices work, but the closest thing you can get in the Android and Windows world. I'm not sure these fuctions are currently available globally, maybe it's still China exclusive, but I do hope they get these really useful things to as many users as possible worldwide.

[@guohongtay27]

I was having bad experience with Xiaomi earbuds. Firstly, i bought Xiaomi flipbuds pro at discount price, but when I get my earbuds, the left buds will not charge. After that I returned that earbuds and got a refund. Secondly, I got Xiaomi buds 3t pro, initially was fine, after a few days, the right side will randomly disconnected and it's hard to pair the right buds. Now I am still waiting the seller to check the buds' issue. Maybe I am just unlucky, but I think I will never try Xiaomi earbuds again

The Xiaomi 13, 13 Pro and 13 Ultra are amazing phones. The cameras, the fast charging, snappy software, I Love MIUI, the screen. The Xiaomi 13 has, in my opinion, the perfect size, an incredible phone. About the 1030@30 fps of the front camera, is not a big deal for me. Great video, cheers from Uruguay !!!!

Silver button is just the beginning. Please remember this comment once you reached the gold button Mark cheers!

Congratulations on your award!! I have been using Xiaomi phones since 2014. Regarding the upgrades, I have some phones reserved that run Android 13 security May 23 (eg mi5 of 2016 with android 13 security May 23 crdroid 9.5 custom ROM). In my personal opinion MIUI is the best android skin. It would be interesting to your subscribers some of its functions such as: second space, dual apps (all apps), AOD, split screen, floating windows, dual video, video toolbox, turbo game, how you can listen KZbin with screen off, themes, the incredible calculator, Xiaomi home etc...

Handed over the S23 Ultra to my wife and got this Xiaomi 13, which for me is a fantastic phone. The Samsung gave me headache cause I'm pwm sensitive, and Xiaomi 13 has a DC dimmer function which work perfect. Side effect, I can have the phone in my pocket while sit down and tie my shoes. Update!!! Don't by this phone if these things are important to you, and it's not mentioned in the review: You can't select custom notification tone for each contacts. If you change one, they will all get it. My Bluetooth gadgets don't work with this phone like Saphe speed warning will only connect when screen is on, and my Luxafor light for people to see I'm talking cause it light red during calls won't connect at all. You can't use tele lense for zoom at 4K recording only at 1080P 👎 zooming with 4K crop at main lense and look horrible. You can't record any video at loud concerts, cause the mics can't handle the loud bass and it will sound like under water.Now I'm at Xperia 1 V, which work properly at all these things and have high pwn rate = no headache.😊 Only missing fast charging but the other things are more important for me.

I would say that you discovered (1st use), Xiaomi at the right time (Miui 14 + 8 Gen 2), on the right range of smartphone (high-end),and especially at the time of the good photo-video collaboration with Leica. Otherwise, the last 3 years were really mixed, and at the level of the mid-range (without high-end processor) it is still a bit of a mess.

[@victorochidi5558]

There's an English word called "progress" I see no reason why they would use 3 years ago to judge them . Almost everywhere they give them critics I'm yet to see

Idk man I'm still rocking the mi mix 3 from 2019. Beside the battery life (wich is to be aspected after 4 years of use) the phone is fine. Same quality, same performance, it still keeps up with the apps, no lag whatsoever. I'm just browsing reviews for a new phone since I think it's about time, but i'm not pressured to upgrade so I really don't know why everyone spreads those rumours about xiaomi phones. They are build to last from my experience

Good review and accurate. I'm a Xiaomi fan here in Ireland and everything you've said is spot on. I have the 12T and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ and I will be getting the 13. Undecided as to if it will be the 13 or 13 Pro. Because your review was genuine I've subscribed so looking forward to hearing more from you. Congratulations on your UTube Award.

[@jon6969.]

Hi Tom. Have you or are you getting the 13 version - Think the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro gets released 1st Feb in the UK.

[@tomegan7104]

@jon6969. hi, as of yet haven't gotten 13 version and may pause and wait to see what Xiaomi releases as year goes on. I did however sell my 12t and S21FE and bought the S23Ultra in October 2023 which I've been hugely impressed by and highly recommend.

[@jon6969.]

No doubt the 13 Pro will come down in price later in the year so just deciding if £299 is worth paying at the moment for a good camera phone. How did you find S21 (samsung) I know the S21 Ultra is supposed to be still a good camera even a few years old. But buying renewed could be a probem with battery life etc. Thanks

[@tomegan7104]

@jon6969. hi again, I thought s21fe was a lovely phone but was never my main phone. But when I used it I was very satisfied but it couldn't compare in battery life with Xiaomi in either use or recharge time. But S21fe impressed me enough to try the S23 which was also excellent but just for me a little small however that gave me along with reading reviews enough impetus to purchase S23Ultra. The price your saying the Xiaomi is at is definitely worth taking a run at but with rumours of Xiaomi upcoming advancements (AI, Camera etc) I'm going to wait before next Xiaomi purchase. Just a note also to mention I have Redmi Note 12 Pro+ which is excellent so I'm waiting to see its upgrade(RedmiNote13Pro+) so while it won't be a main Flagship it's a brilliant Mid Range with Flagship features. Hope this helps.

The smoothness of the phone, the snappiness, the sleek look, it's very light, it's the perfect size for me, the camera is great except for the selfie camera (but that's most phones), battery life is not too bad, and it has esim. I've had it for 6 months now and I don't have any complaints. Maybe the camera could be a bit better but that's really a personal preference. All in all, I highly recommend it! It's definitely better than our old Poco phone. Oh, it doesn't have FM radio, which I do need sometimes but I kept my Poco phone for that reason. That's the main downfall for me but if you don't need it, then great. I hope this helps you decide!

[@kevinpitts3548]

I bought it because it checked alot of the boxed that i wanted. Flat screen, flat sides, fast charging, new soc, pocket friendly, nice camera system, under $800.... But it doesn't support all of T-Mobiles bands. It does support 2/3 to 3/4 of them but not all of them. I live in heavy wooden areas where i rely on those bands, so i went with OnePlus 11. Still a super solid phone.

[@1979paranoidandroid]

Thx for the review. One question though - how do you find the signal strength (not wifi, but cellular network) when compared to Samsung s23?

[@xNanoByte]

That depends more of the provider you use, not the phone antennas. Since I use dual sim daily with different providers I can assure you that not the hardware it's the problem with phone signal

[@1979paranoidandroid]

@@xNanoByte I don't know but based on my experience I do not think so. Recently I was hiking in the mountaint with two of my mates. We all have the same provider, two of us have galaxy s21, and the third - Oneplus 7 Pro. He constantly had all the bars whereas both s21 had none or were really struggling. Hence my question, because you are comparing chinese phone to a Samsung galaxy.

i live in europe and as you can guess mark the iphone and samsung are very expensive , i can afford it but for me buying a phone that comes with no charger and no case makes no sense . So im a xiaomi´s customer for about 7 years i admit the updates are not constantly (about 2 3 months each update) and the miui experience is not perfect personaly i didnt encounter too many bugs but i feel like its a very minimalist OS wich delivers the essencial that is needed for the day to day and most of the people don´t like the OS cause usually they buy the low ,medium or low end device and the real best xiaomi expecience is in the high end. i recently bought the xiaomi smartwatch S1 pro and the redmi buds pro 4 i gotta say it´s been a smooth experience not alot to complain. No smartphone company comes close when the subject is fast charging , i charge my phone 0 to 100 in 19 minutes , the battery delivers a 9 to 10 hours with constant using but since im not always on my phone i end the day with 20 to 30% and again put it on the charge 15 minutes booom its done. i dont gaming alot casually i play a game for 30 minutes and delivers top perfomance. for me spending 1000+ euros on the iphone makes no sense and sometimes when i talk to people and ask them why they bought an iphone when dont even use the ecosystem , cameras or for work makes my mind blow, its all about the status for most people that buy iphones in my country , best regards

After getting used to 67w fast charging on my old Xiaomi 11T,i can't imagine how i would be with S23 "fast" charging if i were to own it.

@@tahsyns.1506 honestly not that much apart from camera, which was the main reason why i upgraded. 13 has been super snappy, like super fast, it's so buttery smooth, navigation through apps and UI is such a joy. Although this might be my recency bias talking. That's not to say that 11T felt slower though, in fact it rarely showed any signs of sluggishness, if at all. I think you are perfectly fine with 11T if you don't care about camera. If you can hold another year, 14 might be one worth going for, rumours going around that Xiaomi will finally add 4K for front video so there's that.

[@lokrj]

@@tahsyns.1506 don't take my opinion heavily, this is my first flagship experience after all. Never would i imagine spending this much money on a Xiaomi LOL, but here I am (Though in my country most premium flagship cost way more than 13, and I'd rather not go cheap and get the budget flagship brand like Poco or Realme). Suffice to say that it's definitely a great device.

Hello Mark, you are goodllooking! - Love from Manila.

[@dio.ahmed3]

I have got the 13 pro, i agree with everything except the heat, maybe cuz i live in a real hot area (40+ c)

[@hfwong7621]

lmaooo. Heat will really damage the phone. I suspect the heat has caused the drop of my xiaomi 13's battery capacity to 4369...

[@bradix5701]

Planning on getting the pro next year

I have a bookstore and also make photocopies....sending a clients file via Bluetooth to my desktop for printing is No pain only with xiaomi phones....with apple's is of course impossible ..with summys and the rest its a pain in the ass to send a pdf directly with ONE move....

[@rinkashi101]

Wait a minute, does this phone actually leave watermarks on every photo and video? Is there an option for it to turn off?

[@hfwong7621]

U can turn it off in setting or edit in the album

[@hanjarake_taro]

Okay, ive used it for 4 days, and this phone's battery lasts like forever!!!!

[@cemarda2560]

I have xiaomi 13. I got problems : 1. When posting video on WhatsApp status, quality is horrible 2. WhatsApp video call camera quality is horrible 3. When take video outside daylight, the video is crazy bright, and the video is not smooth, sometimes feels like stopping. 4. When listening something on KZbin background and checking on Instagram, the video sound stops on KZbin often. Does anyone have same problems?

Hello. I have been using a xiaomi 10T Pro for 3 years and I have no regrets

[@TheLox94]

coming from a mi 9t pro, decided for good time to upgrade to the xiaomi 13 (which i found in deal at 649 euros, here in italy full price its 1100), i'm blown away, the battery helds 5/6 hours of full use (youtube videos, instagram,streaming even from browser, whatsapp excetera). i do a lot of photography at work (usually for samples excetera) and the quality of the camera its damn good, (even better) if you use the pro mode in photos to get the shot done, zoom? 3.2x optical zoom with image stabilization, not enough? 30x digital zoom,. Space? 256gbs of 4,0 quick speed nvme like speed of space (goodbye waiting for the photos to load if you have something like 50k photos like me stored), 5 years of android security patches + 3 major android upgrades (so until android 16 maybe 17 if xiaomi decides the device can handle it, as they did previously with my older 9t pro), it gets warms as you said sometimes but nothing compared to my older 9t pro which in some cases did overheat during summer. its fully waterproof, so no more worries if you drop it on the pool or if its unluckly drop into a pond or into the sink, its light and has a good grip to screen ratio, the audio from the speaker is good (maybe not the best compared to samsung or iphone) but it helds nicely to the competition, the display, oh my, the display is something else, realistic colours with the possibility to fine tune it for graphic use, it has P3 certification and can display full range adobe rgb (as a graphic designer its a dream) videos? 4k 60fps with ois, or if you really want to fully use the camera you can go up to 8k 24fps cinematic, also there's the pro features and leica options even for the videos. oh also, the wifi (its already wifi 6 but will receive with software updates the wifi 7 certification for usage. already confirmed by xiaomi) and cell coverage is GREAT, where my 9t pro had like 1/2 bars this one can fully reach full signal even into no mans land places. idk, this is maybe the best device i've had since my honor 9 in 2016.

[@AndreaMayo_8]

I'm from Italy and have a Mi 9T Pro, I made up my mind with this review and your comment, I'm going to buy it right now for 619€

[@MrGius46]

@@AndreaMayo_8 ciao, quando ti arriva mi faresti sapere come ti sei trovato soprattutto lato temperature (gradi raggiunti in uso generico e sotto maggiore stress) e batteria (screen time)? Vorrei cambiare dispositivo dopo oltre 5 anni (e mantenerlo almeno altri 5) ma sono maledettamente indeciso tra questo xiaomi (o il 13t del leak? vedremo...) zenfone 10 (android simil stock lo preferirei provenendo da oneplus 5t, ma la miui non mi dispiace per quanto visto; ha batteria superiore e jack ma schermo più piccolo e meno "premium", sottotono per altri fattori tipo ricarica) e l'iqoo 11/11s (come caratteristiche tecniche sembra il top che cerco ma è troppo grande :/ è quanto al nexus 6p che ho avuto, e lo scazzo che per qualunque problema futuro sarà molto probabilmente più difficile trovare componenti di ricambio...)

[@AndreaMayo_8]

@@MrGius46 guarda sono quasi due giorni che lo uso e un difetto glielo devo ancora trovare. È leggermente più piccolo del Mi 9T Pro, ma sinceramente non mi posso lamentare, le dimensioni sono perfette, ho provato un Galaxy A34 con cover bella spessa ed era un padellone inaudito, questo Xiaomi 13 con cover stock è davvero molto piacevole in quanto a maneggevolezza. Lato temperature gli unici picchi degni di nota li ha avuti mentre lo impostavo inizialmente tra download delle patch di sistema e delle app, ma è normalissimo in quel caso, per il resto ottimo, così come la batteria che dura davvero tanto, intera giornata in 5g ci arrivi tranquillamente a sera. Fotocamera per adesso ottima ma devo ancora testarla in scenari diversi, in quanto a ottimizzazione è sicuramente da top. Carica rapida ottimizzata. I materiali poi son quello che sono, mi dispiace utilizzarlo con la cover ma come te vorrei mi duri il più possibile, e a parer mio, se tenuto bene, tra 3-4 anni sarà ancora molto valido, anche perché lo sbalzo tecnologico tra un telefono di 4 anni fa con l'attualità è enorme, non vedo come possa essere altrettanto grande tra questo e uno della stessa fascia tra 4 anni. Se devo proprio trovare il pelo nell'uovo sono gli speaker stereo, ma non che non siano buoni, semplicemente non sono rumorosi come li ho provati su altri device (Find X5 e A34), sono pur sempre ottimi per YT, Netflix eccetera, parlo solo di decibel. Spero davvero riesca a farlo durare per almeno 4 anni senza deterioramenti gravi perché è davvero uno smartphone completo e anche bello da usare

[@dujankees]

just a side note: dont get base 128gb, it only has ufs 3.1 (same with samsung s23, oneplus 11, etc.)

[@big-gloom]

I doubt it really makes a difference in real world usage. I would just go with the amount of storage you need and save some money.

[@oyen9476]

Ufs is good whenever you imported large file into the phone or compile the videos. Others no different at all

[@PomskieSaints91]

Nice review. Can i have your wallpaper link thanks

[@marqessanzcora4089]

You deserve it, for your honesty 🎉 enjoy

[@sv6180]

Regarding updates : it will get quarterly updates.(1 update for every 3 months)

[@utdfc4299]

Thank you for the great review🔝❤

[@danielgeorgiev4670]

The camera is not great but the rest of the phone is pretty good. I had a Samsung S21 Ultra which had better Camera , somewhat better Display and better speakers. The Xiaomi is smaller and lighter, a lot easier to handle which I prefer at this point. Also I don't really make that many photos so I am not that bothered about the Camera not being the best. If you prefer a smaller phone that does not cost 1k this one is a great option.

[@ireversethings]

Mf companies not including chargers is the most greedy, douchebag move in the whole history of smartphones.

[@MarksTech]

Agreed. It’s not about saving the environment. It’s about saving their money 😂

Nearly bought one of these but got the S23 instead based on your review

Both are great choices 🔥

Xiaomi Is underrated just for being Chinese. But it's done the unthinkable which is rivaling whith the best of the best ❤❤❤

[@ergwehgr]

Been using 10t and the fast charging has been super convenient I can't go back to another brand.

[@sicjonathans]

You never mentioned the screen. Screen have bad calibration, brightness is week and yellow color is like, 50% of the spectrum of other colors. I have 12T and compering it to 13 is so bad. I have to put xiaomi 13 screen satturation to max out in advanced options to get what 12t have out of the box. I dont get it. And no mater what I do, I cant bring yellow colors up witch tells me there is somethging wrrong with the screens that Xiaomi is using for 13 models. And with the camera, Leica filters are cool but not be able to turn them off even if Im using PRO mod is insane to me.
