Great review, I really liked how you covered the cameras of the three smartphones. Thanks a lot and keep up with the good work!
Xiaomi had one advantage over others and that was pricing, it was once unbeatable but slowly they are trying to disrupt premium market with the likes of Apple & Samsung but they forget one thing, their software and support. I'm not saying MiUI is bad heck even I use it, it's futuristic and looks way better than any other Android skins but the quality is missing nor I've seen fulfilling promised updates on time. Then they are expecting people would get their premium phone with such issues, they are really joking, right?
I was disappointed when I saw the price tbh, I thought I'd get the 13 but hell no I rather get the S23+
Wow! finally someone with same thoughts. Throughout the video all I thought was "what are these prices?" especially during the camera test which honestly was unimpressive. For those prices you can go for other flagships that perform better. You nailed it when you said "Xiaomi HAD" because price was their absolute 1 advantage over competition. They completely lost it and I would not pay what they're asking now. I've always been an Android user and I'd rather go for an iPhone at this point. This is how bad it is.
€1300 for the 13 pro and €1000 for the 13 is on par with S23U and S23+ and to be honest I don’t see many people in Europe choosing the Xiaomi over Samsung at the same price
@@ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow > buys a crap low end phone
> complains about performance
🤡
idk about you guys but the xiaomi 13 base version is so damn beautiful😍
Excellent Line up, another brilliant review. Always love watching your reviews. You just so polished 💞👍
I can't believe there's still a mono speaker on a phone these days. I thought dual/stereo speakers is already a standard.
Amazing unboxing keep it up as always how did you make the icons look good like this bro
Other than chipset has there been any real improvement since the mi 11 Ultra?
i just had this xiaomi 13 the other day. I LOVE IT!! THE SIZE IS RIGHT!!! AND THE CAMERAS ARE STELLAR! I've installed gcam on this AND IT'S EVEN MUCH BETTER!
I wish the 13 pro had the comfort feel you mention about the 13. The 13 body also looks cooler, wish it was in black in this. I'll have to consider the 13 now
Thanks for the video. I was aiming to get the pro but it seems that the base 13 model gives the best value for my money.
I am excited to see the 13 Ultra, but not the price.
Nick, What would you recommend Nothing phone 1, Xiaomi lite 13, oppo find x5 lite or oppo Reno 8 ?
We want know what is deverce in this phones pro lite and the 3rd one 🤔 more details please 🙏 thanks for your help 🙏
Can't wait for xiaomi 13, s23, s23+ battery drain test
Excellent Reviews, remarkable job👏👏👏
Xiaomi 13pro global vs Xiaomi 13pro(the 20 min u reviewed) the zoom test 30X or 70X global version is weaker?
seeing them in store they look great. especially the X13 and 13 lite
Great comparison! Enjoyed it
Does 13 has proximity senzor problem like the previous models?
I got a question admin im a caiomi Redmi noye 12 user is xiaomi 13 and temdite note 13 are the same model or diffetern cna you explain
just a question between mi 13 and redmi note 12 pro plus 5g which one would you recomend
Xiaomi 13 Pro Fog issue on Primary lens. What is your opinion about this problem.
I bought mi 9t pro and I'm loving it. Zero screen disturbance and it's cheap now 😉
i have the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro with me now. really a beauty i must for both of these devices. hopefully the 13 Lite will come to Malaysia too
Nice analysis 😊
Hello boss help me with how i can also aquire that selfie holder u have
Man..Xiaomi finally goes premium..in prices..hope that the premium price mean that there isn't many bloatwares like before..need a detailed info on the software side to comfirm this
My dad's Samsung has way more nagware and dodgy software than my nice clean Xiaomi
i also like the normal 13 i hope they made the pro more boxy and compact
for reference the iPhone 14 pro , running the latest software and geek bench 6 it get 2528 single core , 6344 multi core. just putting it out there
Hallo!
What Theme it's used? Looking Cool.
Thx
does anyone know when they release in South Africa and what their prices would be?
I'm looking forward to buying the Xiaomi 13 lite on Black Friday ❤
Dear NICK LOVE YOU ❤️❤️
Good Day Sir TechNick
the vanilla 13 is outstanding
For the asking price of Xiaomi 13/13 pro, it really doesn't make any sense that they would cheap out on having USB 3+ connection support and that shitty front facing cam with FHD video, wtf
I'm sure the 12 series has just come out in the UK. In electrical stores IE Argos the 12 series is marked as NEW 🤔
Great review
You can get almost half of the price in Asia Region, Taxes is much lower here 😊
Between the xiaomi 13 and honor magic 5, Which one more better ??
The lineup is pretty great though I'd have liked 8+ gen 1 instead of 7 gen 1 in 13 lite and android 13 instead of android 12.
Its a lite phone. Not heavyweight. It shouldnt be on par with last gen flagship.
@@squiddy7155 Asus Zenfone 9 proved that small and lightweight phones can have flagship SOCs. This Mi 13 lite is priced higher than the One Plus 11R which also comes with an 8+ gen1. So indeed they should have gone with that. This SD 7 gen 1 is manufactured using Samsung 4nm so chances are that this is gonna be pretty bad too.
8+ gen 1 should have been the right choice for the phone along with Android 13 out of the box.
@@stancex404 no. Dimensity 8100 wouldve been a way better choice for a lite phone. Sd8+ g1 is still a flagship soc. Maybe it can be use in lite or midrange phones next year. But not this year. Sd8+ g1 is still new and powerful
@@squiddy7155 Like I said if OnePlus 11R has it in a lower price point then Xiaomi can also provide it. I understand it's a flagship SOC but it's a last gen flagship SOC that may have released 7-8 months ago but still uses the same architecture as its 15-16 months old 8 gen 1.
Dimensity 8100 is pretty good too but it's not as good as 8+ gen 1. Also Qualcomm chips are much better for custom roms and kernels. Xiaomi is one of the remaining companies that are still supporting rooting and customisation so 8100 doesn't make any sense.
I like Xiaomi 13, the hand feel, pricing and everything. Thanks.
Very detailed comparison, nice job. This is the best lineup so far. I use the vanilla 13 for about two weeks, and is a very good replacement for my Mi 10t pro. I like the compact form factor, cameras are decent. Miui 14 is Improved and is not that bad. Price is not the best, but I can admit that xiaomi wants to be a premium manufacturer, and the hardware is premium quality. The software is improving. Anyway it takes some time for some of us to recognize this. This partnership with Leica is adding to the final price. Ok the samsung s23 is cheaper maybe, but don't forget, they are manufacturing almost every component of their smartphones. Anyway I like this compact phone. 👍👍👍
Still no 4k with selfie. Seriously Xiaomi 😭
Sadly for this price you can buy galaxy s23 series which gives you more software updates.
With 32 megapixel camera I don't think you need 4k! Samsung use 12 megapixel front camera for that use 4k! 32 megapixel not really need 4k resolution
i miss when expensive xiaomis had great cameras, these ones are so so inconsistent and for what😭
where can i buy the global version at
Pls do file sharing to show ufs 4 capability
1080p 30 fps selfie video is trash, as is USB 2.0 speeds through USB C... Xiaomi can't compete with Samsung.
I just bought a 13 pro but it took me a long time to decide between 13 lite, 13 and 13 pro. I haven't started to use my new phone yet and I'm glad to have come across your video so I can see the comparison and the differences of the 3 models.
I thought 13 pro should have a much better camera, but how come the pics of the 13 lite in your comparison seem to have a clearer and sharper quality especially at 10:05?
1300€ for 13 Pro " No thankyou " instead I will buy Iphone 14 Pro Max and for €699 Oneplus 11 . I think maybe 100 people all over the Europe will buy this lineup .
Would probably pick up the xiaomi 13 lite if I could get the 265 version for 400 bucks. Shouldn't be impossible as they're selling for 450 euro atm.
So the pro is replacing the ultra? For $1100 the front camera needs to do 4k60p.
The 3.2x tele lens with floating focus tele lens is the highlight than the 1.0" 1x sensor lens LoL 🤣.. i had the s23ultra now but i would love to have the 35mm 3.2x LoL
Nice 👍
I like the brick design of the Xiaomi 13 but I would rather have the design that the pro has instead which is similar to my mi 11. Wish you could choose between the two designs. But honestly I think 13 is a great selection. I'm just honestly real tired of carrying around these heavy phones. You would think they would get lighter. And less bulky as well.
It'd be great if you could confirm how much bloatware the phones come with. Bloatware is the second biggest gripe about Xiaomi phones next to the UI.
Nick I want the 13 ultra no compromise
My fave is the 13 Lite
When are they going to give 4k in front camera and a better selfie , back cameras are flagship but front camera is average like a $500 phone
BTW waiting for battery drain test
For people who says it's so expensive you go and pay taxes of european countries on behalf of xiaomi and you'll buy this phone with same price as china.
don't be stupid If you buy a gpu or cpu from any online store in europe you pay taxes on that if you're buying from a european country while if you buy from another country outside eea you won't pay taxes that's the same story if xiaomi wants to gets their products in european countries you pay taxes people there who wanted a real flagship with a global launch they've heard what people wanted in europe and did that.
People will buy it because 13/13 pro are better than honor flagships and oppo and one plus
In India the prices are really competitive
13 pro is at 850$ which is lesser than S23 series and at par with iPhone 14
🔥
It might be global, but trying to buy it is insanely hard. Dodgy websites you can't trust based overseas........and a lot of sites just selling the CN version rather than Global
Is there any problem with the chinese version?
13t pro gonna be wild
The 12 lite definitely looks and probably feels way better the design of the 13 lite I still love the mi 11 lite 5g ne
Agree for the standard .. the most balanced solution
I think, the regular is the most suitable to me
I think that I will wait for a major price drop (or a good sales period) and will finally change my old device (an F2 Pro) and go for the Xiaomi 13, as I think it has the best-rounded top specs for my taste, with a form that I start to miss on android devices (not too big, but neither too small, with full top end specs).
Same, i got my f3 stolen weeks ago and im gonna get a mi 13 second hand but almost new for 450€
Considering his video performance and UI ,I think it's only worth it €799.
5:39 Xiaomi 13 lite does have stereo speakers though, wdym. I mean it wouldn't make sense to have Dolby atmos without stereo anyways
im suprised how 13 lite photo looks so good
At 1299 euros is a hard sell, S23 Ultra far better choice, better software, more updates, the stylus, at least equal camera. For a plastic case and faster charging..... Nope
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
They are at least €200 too expensive. The hardware seems excellent but the software and optimization is lacking a lot.
In Hong Kong, the Xiaomi 13 is priced at around €700 (5999 HKD), which is insanely cheaper than the market outside.
@@hmalya Strongly agreed. I recently bought the Xiaomi 13 and the camera is outstanding!
The 13 seems to be a best choice for the value. I mean the Pro is better, but for the price I rather buy for example the Samsung. Let's test it IRL before jumping into conclusion
13 pro in terms of performance beated samsung na apple performance constant 60fps highest battrey heat is 39
personally i think the Xiaomi 13 will be the best compact phone of the year even going into 2023, with out a doubt it will out perform the S23 , the Iphone 14 and the pixel 7 in battery life...i hope you come through with the battery drain tests...not just the Pro models
Hey bud! Yeah I love the 13! My first drain test is coming end of this week but is based on “pros” and “ultras” but I haven’t forgotten this little guy, he is certainly included in my next drain test which should come before the end of this month🙌
@@TechNick ok cool thanks Nick much appreciate the content...cant wait to get the phone when it drops in SA
the lite is almost identical in formfactor to my oppo x2 neo - I LOVE my oppo but that extra wide notch for the selfie cameras that I will never use....eh.
New type of notch i discovered in this video called bullshit notch 😂
I love the symmetry and how thin the chin of regular 13 is but it's kinda too expensive 😢
I agreed. Expensive. Hope the price will drop drastically by the end of 2023😂 Waiting for big sales. Otherwise I have to buy Samsung instead. 😅
I would personally go for Xiaomi 12 pro as it goes nearly same price than 13 lite.
I would say i would go 12 pro even compared to 13 normal version, since 12 pro has larger image sensor.
Dear can you please tell me on which platform out there is xiaomi 12 pro with the similar price point as xiaomi 13 lite as you say.
Top review!! Im not into the "leica style". For me the video is first.. i think a S23 is better purchase.
I always prefer the lite version of xiaomi since mi 11.
11 lite 5G and 5G NE I presume?
Because 11 lite 4G to me was a scam, at least compared to its closest contemporary, Redmi note 10 pro.
The 11 lite 4G (Courbet) only appealed to people who cared more about aesthetics and looks than functionality.
Or well, people who had only that available in their region with no other choice.
I guess you could argue it brought a HDR 10+ display and 1 billion colors, but at the end of the day...is a gimmick that people won't use 85% of the time due to the lack of viewing actual HDR content in our everyday lives.
I haven't used "HDR" as a conversation point about my phone more than 5 times these past 2 years.
And I'm yet to perceive the color quality on a 10 bit display, since I haven't really used one properly yet.
It is also wayy less bright at 500nits vs 1200nits on the Redmi note 10 pro...this is especially important in outdoor usage.
And the 120Hz RR (which matters for most people's everyday lives, mine especially) it could have carried...was brought down to 90Hz for some reason.
Welp, after experiencing 120Hz for the past 2 years, i cannot accept anything lower as my maximum.
...And no ip53 protection.
This is just a polite rant, just don't get why Xiaomi didn't go with a 1:1 spec sheet for note 10 pro and 11 lite 4G.
But of course the names being different and design/weight difference kept as well.
I don't intend to shame anyone who uses an 11 lite 4G. But imo that phone was a solid scam. It's good looking that's for darn sure, but that's where it ends.
*Its Look and feel/weight*
11 lite 5G and 5G NE though, were great phones. Especially considering their performance capabilities.
@@JstormZx I had 11 lite 5G NE I loved it so much I don’t care much about the spec or cameras as I only use it for work and watching UA-cam. I loved how it charge so fast and last full day.
@@von_9 you should care. lol maybe not about the cameras that's the least important part of a phone to me as well.
Because you can't be spending money on a product that doesn't catch up to its price value.
Especially when its contemporaries offer the same exact value or better... For cheaper.
That's not financial wisdom. You have to care.
Otherwise, you're willingly walking yourself into being scammed and ripped off.
Thinking and comparing before buying is better than buying on impulse and regretting the minute you get home.
Anyway that's just what I've learned these past few years. That's okay. Have a good one 🫠👍
The 13 Pro's telephoto acting as a macro camera is pretty awesome, they revived the telemacro and made it more better than ever
