The Xiaomi 13 Pro is confirmed to make its global debut at MWC 2023. Xiaomi revealed that its new flagship phone will launch on February 26. The device comes with Leica-tuned cameras on the back.

Xiaomi launched the phone back in December 2022 in China. The global variant is likely to offer the same set of hardware. This means that the Pro Xiaomi flagship will feature the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. The same SoC is found in the newly launched OnePlus 11 and the iQOO 11 5G.

There is a 32MP front camera sensor for selfies and video calls. The front camera is located inside the hole-punch cutout. The Xiaomi 13 Pro will feature a tall 6.7-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a QHD+ resolution. The screen is curved towards the edges. There is a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus for protection against drops and scratches. The display also offers 1900 nits of peak brightness.

The device should boot Android 13-based MIUI 14 out of the box. It was launched in China at a starting price of CNY 4999 (roughly Rs 60,900). The phone could have a slightly higher price in India. What are your thoughts on the Xiaomi 13 series? Let us know in the comments below.
