The phones are great, but they went crazy with the price in Europe, 1000€ for the 13 and 1300€ for the Pro is just insane, I will wait if they get cheaper over time, otherwise it's a dealbreaker
Yeah I think that's good advice anyways no matter what phone. Buying a phone at launch is really only something you should do if you have a TH-cam channel! I'm just look at the s21 ultra is like $300 now. Fold 4 starts at $500. You can get a Pixel 6 pro for $300. Note 20 ultra for under $300. If you just wait 9 -12 months You can often get the phone at half price.
@@fullbass1426 problem is the s23 Plus is pretty nerfed. Ever since the s21 lineup, the non-ultra variants have really got short shrift with screen resolution, camera..... I think would be wise for someone shopping for Samsung s23 whether it was a plus or an ultra the wait 12 months and by the phone at 50 cents on the dollar. It'll still get four more years of security updates at that point so value proposition is just so much better if you wait.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 well not everyone wants a curved screen, me included. And FFS not everything is about screen resolution, overall panel quality is a better mark of improvement. Tell me a s8/s9/s10 screen is better than this s23plus screen cause they have higher resolution? Absolutely not. And regarding the camera, who would buy the ultra if the lower models have the same camera? Cameras are the main selling point of these ultra/pro models so it would be stupid for these oems to give it to the lower models on the same generation. And every manufacturer is doing it not only samsung.
it's only these youtube comment people that would want a 6.7" flat display... have you tried holding any disgusting pro max iphone? these phones are extremely uncomfortable.
@@lefteris19 The reason the iPhone is so hard to hold though is not because the front screen is flat. It's because the sides and back are flat with big corners. The iPhone 11 was easy to hold and it had a flat screen. The LG v60 was a huge phone with the flat screen and it was great. Don't get me wrong, I don't think a rounded screen is a deal breaker and I don't complain about it nearly as much as a lot of other people. But gun to my head, I would rather have a flat screen.
@@cmgm6027 I know that tailosave tech has been complaining about the iPhone 13 and 14 comfort level not because of the flat screen but because the flat sides and back with the sharp corners. He recently switched back to an iPhone 10 as an experiment of sorts, and he says he really misses the rounded corners that were more comfortable on the hand. But I don't think it is anything to do with the front screen. The iPhone 11 had a flat screen and rounded back and it was very ergonomic. Likewise the LG v60 had a flat screen with a 6.8 in panel and was also very comfortable to hold.
Unfortunately Xiaomi wants to sell phones with flagship prices, but their software and optimization needs a lot of work. Can't ask 1000+ euros with such flaws
@@IamJay02 Did they stop purging apps from RAM? If you run an app hour after you use it previously, does it saves the state it was after you left it previously or it starts it again from the ROM? Even my Samsung watch saves apps in RAM much longer than Xiaomi phones with much more RAM installed.
@@IamJay02 At last. I don't understand why they thought it's good to kill all apps in devices with so much RAM. My other phones save apps in RAM for more than a day - I can continue doing what I was doing after very long time. My new Redmi Pad tablet kill apps after only few minutes. It's unusable.
You can get one from TradingShenzen for about 720€ with free shipping and the EU from, and if you're even a little tech savvy you can get it with the China Rom and save yourself another 30-40€ and flash the EU Rom yourself, which when you compare it to the other recently released small S23 is a massive undercut in price.
€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. Looking carefully Xiaomi doesn’t offer any noticeable advantages over Samsung, perhaps even the opposite. Samsung has better front and back cameras, overclocked chipset, S pen.
Samsung used to use exynos Chipset in their smartphone, this reality only changed a couple years ago. But you are right, for the same price, Xiaomi is not winning this battle
@@lucianobueno6967 samsung stared using Snapdragon from S23 in Europe. And this is a huge win as we can see from the pre-orders! Definately Xiaomi not worth at this price point!
Great review. Looks like they fixed the weird overexposure on the front facing camera in video mode. Its a pretty decent phone but unfortunately its probably going to cost almost as much if not the same as an S23 in the EU and at that point I would just buy the Samsung. 🤔
Waiting for my global version unit from Canada, still on my lovely Poco F1 but time goes on and this one just calling me, another excellent review thank you TT ❤
The Xiaomi 13 Phone feels a lot like when who'r'we released the P20 pro , top end specs and a beast camera for less then the top 2 rivals they're also now using Leica for their camera,
In my opinion, xiaomi 13 would be selling 3 times the current sales if they managed to get the 256 12 GB variant sold at 500-600 dollar mark, it's an excellent phone, however, extremely overpriced ...
Here in Canada the starting price is $1400 CAD ($1125 CAD on Sale), while the Samsung S23 is around $1015-1100 CAD which is much cheaper. I do want to buy Xiaomi 13 but the current price will makes me wait for it to be much cheaper (or some other compact phone comes out)
I remember that time when Xiaomi CEO asking their users either they wanted premium prices without bloatware or cheaper with bloatware..and now they charged us premium prices but also came with bloatware..man what happen Xiaomi 😅
@@Techtablets great, I've been spoiled by 10 bit the last few years and the last 8 bit/miui on the mix 3 was often visible, that's why i was a bit concerned 👍
@@Techtablets update: i bought it, really happy with it (coming from op9 pro), the 8 bit banding is visible where 8 bit banding is expected; on somewhat dark gradients. i think it has some kind of dithering algorithm when pulling down the notification shade, so the circumstance where banding is most common is taken care of👍
I'm curious: I'm having a hard time deciding whether to get the Xiaomi 12T Pro, 12 Pro or 13 Pro. I've recently watched your 12 Pro vs S22 Ultra video and your comparison with the 13 pro and 12T Pro. But I can't decide on which one to go for as an upgrade. I've currently got the redmi note 9 pro, and the cheapest option out of the three is the 12t Pro, but I like modern specs. Which out the three would you recommend?
I have the same problem, the 13 pro is definitely too expensive. I can get the 12 pro or 13 for the same price. The 12t pro is the cheapest but I feel they are already to old. Very hard decision. 🙁
I've just bought a red magic 8 pro, but can't stop wondering of I did the right choice.. I had a crush on this 13 model from the first time I saw it lol .
Redmagic perfomance wise is WAAAAY better because you can overclock it and has active cooling (but Xiaomi 13 pro has the best perfomance between non gamer devices tho meanwhile samsung has the worst, even with the "for galaxy" marketing). Besides perfomance, yeah X13 and S23 are overall better phones but rm8p is a beast, don't feel bad for it and aim for Xiaomi 14.
I did buy the redmagic 8 pro, around February 13th, can you guys belive the seller didn't sent the order? I had a terrible experience with Nubia authorized store (with 100% of good reviews), the seller kept lying to me about shipping, excuses over excuses, the stock wasn't enough, it would be shipped in next few days, and with this novel I've wasted almost 60 fu**ing days waiting, and the seller wanted me to extend for another 15 days. That's when I had enough and had to cancel the order. It most certainly didn't happen only to me, and those liars deleted the advertisement that we bought from and created another new one so no one could give the bad reviews and speak the truth. The only good thing that came out of this story is that I gave up the redmagic 8 pro, and went with Xiaomi 13 pro, and so happy I did it. I was coming from a bs4pro and I was tired of having a smartphone with shitty cameras, redmagic would probably be better that my bs4pro (anything is better than its camera, all of them), but most surely would be enough, now I'm happy of getting an better all around phone. Also something tells me that Nubia is not the best software, if they treat their costumers like this, I don't think they are concerned to give you updates.
I am a Xiaomi user for almost 5-6 yrs now one thing I have seen is even there flagship phones miui experience is as same as there budget phones with bloatware even though they promise long-term updates but they are way behind samsung and Apple who gives timely updates on there devices as samsung gives way more features in there one UI than Xiaomi does many buyers get fooled with oppo Vivo Xiaomi giving high end specs with low price but many don't know software is also most important thing when you pay premium for long-term usage
Im an Xiaomi User for 8 years now (only Xiaomi since than). Reason i bought it Back in the day was the great Software and the best camera optimazion. Actually im also typing the comment on an Xiaomi but i have to say, im Not willing to buy an Xiaomi in the Future againt. The Software is Not as good anymore and the camera ist even worse. Cant hold Up to the competitors. Samsung or Pixel is in my opinion the was to Go in that price class.
Would you recommend this phone ? Im using now for 4 months the Nothing Phone 1, but this Nothing Phone 1 still have some issues here and there so im thinking now about switching
If you want to demonstrate the PWM and the DC dimming mode, just decrease the brightness and you will see the flickering. Then switch on and off DC dimming to assess the effect. Xiaomi 13 pro doesn't have DC dimming, because it has high frequency 1920 Hz PWM dimming which is supposed to substitute the DC dimming for reducing eye strain.
Did Xiaomi stop killing apps in the background? Can you try open app, go to home screen and then open same app after half hour - does it save state of the app in the RAM or it's loading it from ROM? Even my Samsung watch saves apps in RAM (much) longer then Xiaomi phones :(
@@Techtablets I thought that maybe they stopped doing that on MIUI 14 :( I have new Redmi Pad tablet and it kills apps in only few minutes, it's worse then before, unusable :(
I did, unfortunately it bricked with the firmware update and had to be sent back. This late now my review wont get views so the video has been canned. I can tell you this it's a very nice phone for the price.
Ah finally, that Macro camera inclusion has finally ended in this model... Xiaomi must've so many macro cams in their inventory to always include it to almost all of their triple cam setups previously 😅😅
More like the extra costs of hardware + R&D costs Also, they want people to pay extra $300 to get their most expensive phone they have All in all, it's already falling into $700 in asian regions, which means it's will get less expenisve globaly in next few weeks
@@Jack_Sparrow131 I suspect Asian market tends to prefer larger phone, if given a choice between a compact and large phone with similar specs. Need to look at iPhone Pro vs Pro Max sales figures.
@@Jack_Sparrow131 Anyway, what I meant with the original post was all the Android flagships with 1-inch sensor are large, and also have curve display, which I absolutely hate.
1000 euros for a bug infested MIUI with a terrible update schedule 🤣🤣🤣 Oh Xiaomi, you bunch of comedians. At least vivo offers a much better package, not to mention far superior software and cameras. They've officially lost it!
It's a nice phone but I wont be paying EUR 700 for Xiaomi :) This brand was supposed to be a chaper alternative to iphone, Samsung and other hi-end brands. Now the price is just 100-200 EUR lower than these brands, thus making purchasing Xiaomi make no sense.
Does the phone have a quick shooter like the iPhone 14 Pro? The iPhone Pro series is one of few phones that can pictures of moving subjects(pets, toddlers etc)mostly blurry free.
would be interesting if a software update could change the frontcam to 4k. Back in the days my Mi8 also got upgraded afterwards when filming with the main camera to 4k60. It would be interestng if the frontcamera sensor is generally capable of shooting 4k
@@Techtablets yeah i found out that its the same frontcam as in the xiaomi 12s ultra. And the Sensor is called OmniVision OV32C, the Specsheet says: maximum image transfer rate: - 6528 x 4896: 15 fps - 8 + 8MP (2x 3264x2448): 30 fps - 8MP (3264x1836 after 4C RGBC fusion): 30 fps
Exactly, It's only about EUR 100-200 cheaper than Samsung flagship phones which makes it totally not worth buying. What made Xiaomi popular was offering same specs as flagship phones for half the price.
i have the redmi note 10 pro and ive been very satisfied with this phone for the last 2 yrs.but on recently holding my previous phone mi 9 lite i realised that phone was much smaller and much better to hold in the hand.I dont like this massive form factor.Are there any other phones worth going for that are this kind of form factor in the budget price arena other than a google pixel.
I buy Xiaomi because of its excellent value compared to Samsung and iPhone, they are really good fones...I put up with minor software lags and so on, because they were about 50% cheaper, I'm not seeing the value anymore to be honest will probably get Samsung next .
I mean this phone seems to take good low light images. It is with the ultra low light that seem to have issue. And that is if you put that against bigger flagships.
Hello, I have a question about the Xiaomi 13 and the WhatsApp application. Is there a problem when sending videos about 200mb in size via WhatsApp? Namely, the Xiaomi 12 and 12T series has a problem when sending such large videos....when the video is sent, the receivers video stops (glitch) when watching it...the sent video also stops in the sender's app after sending. Could you please check this? Thanks in advance! Lp

@@Jack_Sparrow131 I suspect Asian market tends to prefer larger phone, if given a choice between a compact and large phone with similar specs. Need to look at iPhone Pro vs Pro Max sales figures.
@@Jack_Sparrow131 Anyway, what I meant with the original post was all the Android flagships with 1-inch sensor are large, and also have curve display, which I absolutely hate.
Video example was very laggy for 2023, u can notice the freezes from stabilization. Not ok at all.
Once I was a fan of Xiaomi but I'm thinking of changing in the future
Hi, Chris. What can you say, this or Samsung s22 8gen 1?
Please help, what would you choose, Xiaomi 13 or Oneplus 11? I am torn. Thanks
Hey mate Meizu 20 is releasing next month for the 20th anniversary. Be cool if you could review. Will be 6.4 Snapdragon gen 2 and 6.7 pro 🙏🙏
Which one would you prefer Xiaomi 12T Pro vs Xiaomi 13
does the color green look premium? or not ?
it does
Hai sir, is this video support all stabilization like 4K 30&60 fps?
The main selling point of the Mi 13 is the compact size, because there aren’t many phone choices in this size category.
Zenfone 8 and 9, XiaoMi 12S, XiaoMi 12, XiaoMi 12X .etc
any s23 ultra review?
Xiaomi are not going to able to keep selling phones like this at this price. I wouldn't be surprised if they only sell redmi in europe soon.
Maybe that is their plan?
1000 euros for a bug infested MIUI with a terrible update schedule 🤣🤣🤣
Oh Xiaomi, you bunch of comedians. At least vivo offers a much better package, not to mention far superior software and cameras.
They've officially lost it!
The commercial say the 13 can record video in Dolby Vision front and back cameras, it is any good? Regards!!
Yes but front camera is 1080p 30 FPS max.
It's a nice phone but I wont be paying EUR 700 for Xiaomi :) This brand was supposed to be a chaper alternative to iphone, Samsung and other hi-end brands. Now the price is just 100-200 EUR lower than these brands, thus making purchasing Xiaomi make no sense.
It's €1,000 not 700 for the Xiaomi 13
@@eoin4597 xD then I feel sorry for people who decide to buy this phone nowadays
@@eoin4597 Exactly. At that point you just get a Samsung or any other better options.
How many years update software and Security, does this phone come with?
Hi , can you compare Xiaomi 13 vs Xiaomi 12T pro camera compression
does this phone gets warm whrn doing fb yt etc. social media stuffs?
Great phone but since when did Xiaomi sell their phones at Apple prices?!
Can u make a review video after using it for 3 month❓ 🥺
Maybe but those videos get poor views.
does it have an IR blaster?
Does the phone have a quick shooter like the iPhone 14 Pro? The iPhone Pro series is one of few phones that can pictures of moving subjects(pets, toddlers etc)mostly blurry free.
patiently waiting for honor magic5 pro review
It's work in progress right now but thank you!!
would be interesting if a software update could change the frontcam to 4k. Back in the days my Mi8 also got upgraded afterwards when filming with the main camera to 4k60. It would be interestng if the frontcamera sensor is generally capable of shooting 4k
I so think the front camera can do 4k the sensor, it's just for whatever reason Xiaomi doesn't want to go with 4k.
@@Techtablets yeah i found out that its the same frontcam as in the xiaomi 12s ultra. And the Sensor is called OmniVision OV32C, the Specsheet says:
maximum image transfer rate:
- 6528 x 4896: 15 fps
- 8 + 8MP (2x 3264x2448): 30 fps
- 8MP (3264x1836 after
4C RGBC fusion): 30 fps
great review as always - too expensive tho
I want to buy the Xiaomi 12 Pro do you guys think about it is it worth it?
Have this got auto call recorder?
Oneplus 11 or xiaomi 13 ?
Here in the Philippines, Xiaomi 13 costs PHP 45k (820 USD) while G S23 costs PHP 54k (985 USD) for 8GB Ram and 256GB Internal Memory
cool story bro
Are you using 13?
who need xiaomi in 2023 with that price and cameras?XD
Exactly, It's only about EUR 100-200 cheaper than Samsung flagship phones which makes it totally not worth buying. What made Xiaomi popular was offering same specs as flagship phones for half the price.
i have the redmi note 10 pro and ive been very satisfied with this phone for the last 2 yrs.but on recently holding my previous phone mi 9 lite i realised that phone was much smaller and much better to hold in the hand.I dont like this massive form factor.Are there any other phones worth going for that are this kind of form factor in the budget price arena other than a google pixel.
Asus zenfone, basic S23
Zenfone 9
The 13 is beautiful ❤️
I buy Xiaomi because of its excellent value compared to Samsung and iPhone, they are really good fones...I put up with minor software lags and so on, because they were about 50% cheaper, I'm not seeing the value anymore to be honest will probably get Samsung next .
I wonder how does this one stack against the Xiaomi 12 Pro? Which one's better overall?
I prefer this over the 12 Pro.
I mean this phone seems to take good low light images. It is with the ultra low light that seem to have issue. And that is if you put that against bigger flagships.
Size of this phone is similar to Huawei P30 and that phone is like a right size for me, but if they can create pixel OG size then its better
Finally Anti-flicker mode is back😊
Yes 👍
小型、75mmのレンズ、ライカのマスターレンズシステムがあり、本当に使ってて楽しいです。
私のお気に入りは35mmモノクロームと、75mmポートレートレンズです。
13Tが発売されましたが、マスターレンズシステムに75mmポートレートレンズが無いので、13の方が好きですね。
Hello, I have a question about the Xiaomi 13 and the WhatsApp application. Is there a problem when sending videos about 200mb in size via WhatsApp? Namely, the Xiaomi 12 and 12T series has a problem when sending such large videos....when the video is sent, the receivers video stops (glitch) when watching it...the sent video also stops in the sender's app after sending. Could you please check this? Thanks in advance! Lp
What about the honor magic 5 pro
I don't care at all about front facing cameras. But I am very frustrated at the lack of video output.
And faster USB 3.2 would be nice.
999€ is a joke for it. just wait 3 or 4 month and buy it for 600€
Camera compression between Xiaomi 13 lite vs Xiaomi 12 pro
Still not seeing phone to switch from my mi 9t pro. Especially while I live in Poland and paying this much for a phone is just hard no for me.
I just wish all android phones lose the curve edged units!!! It's really annoying. It gets in the way of getting a tempered glass last for atleast 3 months. JUST LOSE THE FRIDGIN EDGES!!
Xiaomi really, vivo and those that use 1080p on the front camera with pro or plus or ultra names should not use it if its not complete. 4k is a must.
Yes doesn't make sense to call a phone "Pro" and "Ultra" with only 1080p30 front cameras.
@@Techtablets yes!!!
rather buy the china set version, not only i can get it for 400 dollars cheaper, but you also will get everything and china rom has been pretty global friendly now so no need to change to global rom, but eurom is a must for fully utilize the software
I really like xiaomi 13 overall, however the weak camera and USB2.0 are the dealbreaker for me :(
Why is it weak it's a Leica
@@novasigma5964 Leica is a lense only
Watching on s23 😍
Nice!
999€... xiaomi is drunk xD
Nah just slowly raising prices to price match the iPhone ultra
@@User9681e They are raising them pretty quickly I think!
@@eoin4597 yes by the time iPhone ultra releases they will sell Chinese phones for even more planing for the thing after ultra lol
Chinese think their shit worth more then a car and soon a house lol
