Xiaomi Redmi Note 13

Full retail package with a charger and a case.

No HDR video playback support, which is otherwise common for Xiaomi devices.

The Redmi Note 13 4G arguably only has one major shortcoming. Unfortunately, it's a pretty significant one too. The Snapdragon 685 chipset is just way too starved for performance, especially in the GPU department. It struggles to deliver an adequate...

IP54-rated no-nonsense design, nice colors, Gorilla Glass 5 front.

No HDR video support, which is otherwise common for Xiaomi devices.

All things considered, the Redmi Note 13 is not a bad phone in any particular way but is arguably not the best value package at its price point.

Significantly cheaper than 5G model ; Strong 120Hz OLED display ; IP54 rated

On the surface, Xiaomi is offering you a tempting deal: drop 5G from the equation, and you can save £80 on the Redmi Note 13 5G. It’s not as simple as that, however, with downgrades to the design and the performance. It remains a solid sub-£200 phone...

Superb screen ; Solid specs ; Expandable storage

So-so cameras ; Similarly priced handsets perform better ; Relatively weak battery life

Bright and smooth OLED screen ; Four years of security updates ; Good battery life ; 33 W charger included

Questionable secondary cameras ; Nineteen third-party apps by default

While we criticized the other 4G model in Xiaomi’s 2024 mid-range line-up, the Redmi Note 13 4G presents a much more compelling case with its sub-$200 price. An excellent display, a decent camera, and good battery life offer almost the same experience...
