The Redmi Note 13 device is the perfect cornerstone to tech-savvy living.  

April has arrived and that means that you can finally pick up the Xiaomi company’s new Redmi Note 13, Redmi Note 13 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G. These new iterations come with the latest advancements in performance, quality and aesthetics, all priced to beat competitors from any manufacturer.  

If you haven’t heard of the Redmi Note 13 Series just yet, let us introduce you to the Pro models, Redmi Note 13 Pro and the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G. To start, both devices ship with a high-quality 200MP main camera complimented by an 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro camera. Redmi has packed a lot more into these cameras than just a vast number of raw pixels, such as Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and 2X/4X zoom. You can get even closer to the action without ever moving, making the most of events such as live performances, sports and races.  

Capture as many pictures and as much video as you like with zero hiccups thanks to the 12GB of RAM onboard these phones. Plus, when it’s time to save your latest masterpiece, file it away in the seemingly endless 512GB of storage.  

Want to watch your content with seamless playback? Enjoy it on the 120HZ FHD+ AMOLED screen and pay close attention to the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G’s curved screen to fully immerse yourself. Moreover, you can stay entertained all day long thanks to the large 5 000 MAh battery.  

While the two Pro models share some features, they differ in some key areas. Charging is one of these areas; the Pro comes with a 67W turbo charger while the Redmi Note Pro+ 5G has an even quicker 120W HyperCharger. The Pro can be charged to 100% in 25 minutes, which the Pro+ 5G can do, but in just 19 minutes. It’s these differences that make the Note 13 Series so compelling without skimping on the quality – especially when other companies don’t even include a charger in the box! 

While we’ve talked a lot about the Pro models we don’t want you to forget about the Redmi Note 13. Although it’s the ‘little brother’ of the range, it still comes with industry-leading features like an in-display fingerprint reader, a 120Hz FHD+ AMOLED screen with ultra-thin bezels, a triple camera array of 108MP+8MP+2MP shooters and a 16MP selfie cam.  

Like its big brothers, the Redmi Note 13 also has a huge 5 000 mAh battery and, again, Redmi has included a fast-charging option with a 33W charger in the box.  

All three Redmi Note 13 Series devices are available in South Africa in the alluring Midnight Black colour. But The Redmi Note 13 can also be bought in Ice Blue, the Redmi Note 13 Pro in Forest Green, and the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G is also available in Moonlight White.
