      4 hours less video playback and 2 less in gaming compared to its predecessor Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G. Worst thing is that device was never considered a battery champion. In the old battery test this would have scored around 80 hours approximately, maybe even less.

          Don, 29 Jan 2024Considerig the specs it should be 299 euro max. But Xiao... moreIn my country flash sale ends today. And the price is 299 EUR-os (50 EUR-os off). In a couple of months the prices will go down anyway.

            I thought I will be to upgrade this generation from the X3 Pro but no. The X3 Pros chipset still slightly faster than this, the Poco X6, and too expensive X6 Pro.

The hole pattern on the panel is not resolved at all, and it's black and white so chroma is not the issue. An example of a borderline case is the Infinix Zero 30. There is a 3x zoom photo where the hole pattern is resolved only on the right half of the picture.

                          That's why i stopped buying Xiaomi phones. Too many models, hard to properly software support all of them. In short, Xiaomi don't really understand the trends (software support is really important for ppl lately) and now their phones are just for the undemanding crowd

                            By the way, the demosaicing artifacts in some of the 4x sample images indicate that the lens is very sharp. So sharp that even 200 megapixels (but with Tetra²pixel array) don't outresolve the lens. Though it would be interesting whether a 200 megapixel Bayer sensor would outresolve the lens. Then you would see no demosaicing artifacts.

It's surprising that Quad Pixel autofocus sensors can use their subpixels for a higher resolution whereas 12 megapixel Dual Pixel sensors can theoretically give you a 24 megapixel image, but there wouldn't be more detail according to multiple sources. So it's surprising that Quad Bayer sensors with Quad Pixel autofocus as well as Tetra²pixel sensors with Quad Pixel autofocus can indeed deliver more detail.
                              For example, there is a mirrorless camera called Om System Om-1, which has a Quad Bayer Quad Pixel sensor with 80 million subpixels, but it can only output 20 megapixel photos.

                                domoon, 30 Jan 2024the year is 2024 and this guy still didn't know how to... moreHow???

                                  Munem, 30 Jan 2024This is just sad. I can get over bad battery, but as someon... moreWhy do you need to have more than 10 seconds of AoD? You can slightly move phones to activate it again (i purposely have the option turned on, most the time the phones in a pocket or being used like most people).

                                  In my country this is £300 and you arent getting much better, new, at this price with those overall specs. (you are right though you can get some really good 2nd hand even flagship devices in perfect condition for around the same price/get a samsung flagship from last 2 years too).

                                  I mean xiaomi does offer atleast 4 years of software updates and 5 years security for a good amount of their devices and the UI is one of the more well polished ones and has been a very enjoy ui for many years (i loved it on the redmi note 5 ai dc), madness you think this is an "abomination"

                                    Really good review, really impressed with it and i do think at the price range any of those choice would be just as good alternatives. Possibly not the note 13 4g pro, just not worth it at only €50 off.

                                    Good job guys 🤟

                                      No checking on video stabilization!
                                      Seems the review was cut short.

                                        fastezzz, 30 Jan 2024320 vs 430 street price are not 40/50 €My bad, I first checked a week ago and the cheapest note 13 5g was on Amazon for €399 and the cheapest 13T was €420 (on other platform).
                                        Now the difference is considerable.

                                        On the other hand, from other reviews, the note 13 5g has video stabilisation issues, so if video is important, I would skip this phone anyway.
