that's not a downside, that's normal for a 2+ year old phone with moderate use. honestly it's a plus considering iPhones are optimised and still have that kind of wear-and-tear, so that's actually a bit of a plus.
Hopefully the next model has a matte back again. The 12 Pro made me love it because just feels and looks so good. I also hope to see some more custom ROM support on Xiaomis devices in the future. After all, they still offer this very easy to unlock bootloader.
If the phone was released in India, then yes, it'll have a high chance for custom ROM support, but the price will be the problem, it'll cost lots of Rupees
@@manuelmiranda623 bro s23 and sd23+ gonna have the same specs just a bugger display. I am only saying it cause s23 ultra will cost more than the base pro model that's why
It's a bummer that they kepts front cam video at 1080p as you said but it looked stable and very detailed video quality better than most 1080p almost like it was 1440p
Greetings from Switzerland, I noticed your channel today and I watched many of your videos, you make really good comparisons, but I have a comparison suggestion that no one has done. You should test phones from different brands that you use yourself or that your friends have used for 1 or 2 years. Because in general, most of the new phones give good performance. The most important thing for a consumer is its performance after using it for 1 year or after using it for 2 years. Which phone offers better performance to the user who is more loyal to the owner, this is the main thing we need to learn. It will get a very good result when you make a video like this. Because people wonder about the performance a new phone will get after 1 year, not the performance it will get on the first day. thank you again for your great videos I hope you will consider this suggestion good luck
The SD 8 gen 2 is probably the biggest upgrade for all 2023 flagships this year. Has there ever been another year where the SOC was the biggest feature?
There are actually a couple of ways to remove 60 FPS limit in games on Xiaomi phones: 1. Clear all data of "Battery & Performance" app 2. Clear all data and force stop or uninstall the "Joyose" app
@@iamhoney1018 lol, seems like you are new to custom rom. The pixel experience (as the name says) it gives you stock Pixel like experience dude, some people like clean UI (like me) but of course I want some customisation too. So, there are tons of other ROMs available too which has best customizations out there. I'm using Cherish os. Other decent roms are evo X, corvus os, spark os, project Elixir etc.
Yeah I still don't why Xiaomi and a lot of the foreign OEMs still limit the front camera at 1080p. I thought the 1080p front video looked great, but imagine it at 4k 60fps. Such a great camera system everywhere else. Especially the 8k and Ultra wide video.
It honestly doesn't matter to me all that much. I never do anything more than an occasional video call or selfie anyway. I'm more disappointed with the USB 2.0, but it's not deal breaking. I'm waiting on the ultra model to see if it's gonna replace my mi11 or not.
@@omnihein9322 None of it is really a deal breaker for me. At the same time, if another company offers something just as good for a similar price with it, I'll probably lean more towards it.
@@artdogg50 I feel ya, but where I live, that ain't gonna happen due to Samsung's Android monopoly (For example they asked nearly $2k for the S22U), I can get a top-spec Xiaomi 13 pro for the same price as I pay for say a bottom spec S22+.
As an Android fan (predominately Samsung & Oppo products), you can’t compare Antutu scores between Android and Apple products. The format is completely different and Antutu themselves have stated this.
I feel the best 8 gen 2 phone so far is the VIVO x90 pro plus. While this Xioami might have slightly better benchmark, it seems they've cut some corners. The display has larger bezels than other flagship. USB 2.0 is not good enough for a new flagship. Average selfie camera. Ufs 3.1 with base 128gb storage.
Exactly also not to mention Xiaomis software is pretty buggy compared to others. I had both Xiaomi and Samsung and meanwhile on the Samsung I only had one or two bugs, on the Xiaomi I counted at least 5-10. My parents have Xiaomi too and they didnt encountered as much as I am but definitely encountered several. But this is well known that Xiaomis software is not that great in terms of quality.
@@xalzor740 I have 1 Poco phone with miuo and 1 redmi phone also with miui The performance on my redmi phone was kinda mid But other than that I had 0 bugs not even in the miui 14 Dev builds i have tested
You're comparing the Vivo X90 Pro Plus to a Xiaomi 13 Pro? Not to the Ultra? Of course they'd cut corners. It's not their most expensive phone in the line up.
Honestly with nearby share/quick share I basically never ever plug my phone in to transfer pictures to my computer/tablet/laptop. So to me 3.0+ speeds is a fine trade off for 120w charging. And I never really record in 4k for the front came even on my s22 ultra. Pretty much always 1080p. So I'm fine with it.
nice review. The USB 2.0 and crappy selfie cam are making me second guess my decision to buy one of these but I'm not sure there's gonna be anything better for quite a while
And base 128gb storage still uses ufs 3.1. You have to get larger storage to get ufs 4.0. USB 2.0 means their won't be any hdmi out support. For flagship, that's a deal breaker, plus the selfie camera.
I have a Xiaomi 12 Pro, and I wouldn't see any reason to upgrade. If I still used the Mi 11 as a daily driver, upgrading to this phone would be an option
I also have 12 pro but i have a reason to upgrade, i love the cameras of 12 pro and have 8000+ photos in just 6 months from its camera but what i need is good battery bcz i only get a screen time of 5 hrs with full brightness as i also travel here and there so apart from cameras the only thing i want is good battery and 13 pro just gives double the battery life so i may choose 13 pro over 12 pro
Dear Nick, this is the first time im seeing your channel, and i loved the video and presentation. You obviously know what you're doing! This is precisely why im a bit confused to why you would wear a shirt like that in a nice studio like yours. They don't seem to fit on the same quality level. Cheers and good luck in the future!
@TechNick excellent review! much thanks when You plan to make review on his biggest competitor Vivo X90 pro+? cant wait to see review from You on that phone and also comparise video with this xiaomi 13 pro ;)
Does it have real proximity sensor? Does it have desktop mode when connected to external screen? USB 2.0? Does it even have display out? I really loved Xiaomi phones, until they dropped proimity sensor :(
Would consider using a Xiaomi phone once they eradicated bugs and bloatwares, more importantly 4k Selfie Video. Imagine a flagship phone with 1080p/60fps in 2023.
I've owned my 12 Pro for 6 months and got rid of most or hidden most of the bloatware and haven't came across a single bug, I kinda agree with the camera but at the same time I'd rather have the fastest charging phone on the market than a 4k selfie, it's all about priorities for specific lifestyles but I feel like having a good enough 1080p camera with an amazing battery is the best of both. You can still take clear selfies and you can fully charge your phone in the time it takes to use the bathroom. Instead of a 4k camera and a 40 minute charge time..
Pro tip: You have to go to setting - manage apps - search for "battery and performance " - clear the app data. This is how you can get full 120 fps in games on Xiaomi devices.
@technick I live in Iceland, do you think it's better to wait for the global release? What will be different in software/ hardware? Great video very clear information
I'm absolutely ecstatic about this phone!! I've been trying for over 6mos to decide which Xiaomi pH to go with & the 13 meets & exceeds my expectations. Ordered a 11 pro plus & have to admit it was by far the WORST Xiaomi purchase I've made. Thanks for your , as usual, thorough & awesome review.
How bout the battery life? Did get more then 7 hours? And the temperature, the 13 pro get hot? I have the xiaomi 12 and sometimes I get got just 5 hours of screen time and the device get hot just watching videos
When this comes to the UK, and the costs are sub £700, I am tempted to get this. My s21 ultra has been a disappointing phone since the day I purchased it. Battery issues, camera issues and the like. I think the Exynos chipset has ruined my trust in Samsung, even with them going snap dragon this time around I am unsure I want to pay double the cost of a Xiaomi 13 pro for the Samsung badge.
The following should be mandatory: 3.5mm headphone jack Dedicated micro SD slot 45w charger or above 6000 mah battery Governments should ban phones which do not have the above features. These features must be the new standard for all smartphones.
Buy sony xperia 1 iv or xperia 5 iv i think that's the specs you looking for. But for me xiaomi 13 pro is fine to me without the headphone jack and sdcard. That most other brand flagship phone specs do.
Honestly, then Zenfone series from Asus should be definitely a formidable device under the radar. There are so many clever hidden practical gestures and features that blow my mind away. I own the Zenfone 9 and I'm telling you it is the most refreshing experience on Android from Asus I've used in a very long time. Definitely looking forward for future models from Asus Zenfone series
first time seeing miui 14 global dang so that's how it looks. ok needed the update, not the upgrade. don't really mind still sticking to 8g1 this year.
Hi TechNick. I was wondering if you've ever compared front camera videos on a flagship 4K TV. I compared my huawei p40 pro 4k and FHD. There is no difference. I've also compared it on other phones and had similar results.. It's similar with the rear cameras. I saw the real difference between 4k and FHD when I was shooting video on a mirrorless camera. I think Xiaomi knows why it does this.
I'm surprised you didn't mention that this is like a reskin of the Mix 4 in design (which has superior design than this), which was inspired by the even older Samsung S20 Ultra.
Ir blaster is a godlike feature that should never be removed
Afaik only xm consistently have it in 99% of their products lineups. Idk what other mainstream brands that have it.
Always using it to the hotel rooms with an AC
This phone still have an IR port
Even 150$ Xiaomi phones have it
I used 3 mi phones never used one
Damn. Wasn't expecting SD 8 Gen 2 to beat the A16 in graphics! Great review Nick!
Let's see the comparison between sd8g2 vs a16
SD cpu is better than Bionic now..
@@handsome7616 SD is 8core and A16 is 6core
@@RamlyJer Not the CPU. The GPU is better

You can prevent miui from disabling background apps in the battery settings and in the individual app configuration.
Maybe you could have shown pictures of the phone in other color variants .
does anyone know when the Xiaomi 13 series releases in South Africa and how much would it cost?
Did you mention the battery life at all? Maybe I've missed.
I'm surprised you didn't mention that this is like a reskin of the Mix 4 in design (which has superior design than this), which was inspired by the even older Samsung S20 Ultra.
can you do battery drain tests against iphone 14 and samsung s23....the base versions..not the pro or ultras
