Gsmarena, those dark cases are cheaper to make because you can just paint recycled pellets with dark color and be done with it, whereas you have to use pure pellets to create a transparent case.

Why they removed stereo from the base Redmi Note series. What a shame.

I've had a phones with a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and I had to try at least three times until it finally worked. Plus, many times when I put the phone in my pocket, my thumb would rub the side-mounted fingerprint scanner and it would get unlocked in my pocket, opening random apps and dialing random numbers, I kidd you not. So it's not even a question which one's better

It can cannobolize sales from some of their more expensive models and also it makes it difficult to market future models if the previous model has everything. Nearly all these Redmi and Poco phones are ODM anyway so it's very easy to release them quickly. Everything is outsourced to ODM companies, from design of the phone to manufacture so the cost will be lowered. Basically, Xiaomi just has to look after the software as the hardware is taken care of by big ODM companies. It's also easier to market and sell new models as people generally think new models are better (even if they aren't)

The best mid-range lineup of Xiaomi is the Poco phones. The Redmis, to me, are seemingly just prototypes of what the upcoming great Poco devices are going to be at a later time.

It's as if they jumbled each great component across a variety of similar-looking models instead of joining them altogether into one mega supreme device to rule the mid-range segment.

Awesome job, Xiaomi, dropping from ~4.x stars on Redmi Note series to 3.6, "cheaper phones are getting better" my a$$.

Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G also uses tcs3701 proximity sensor but you call it a virtual proximity sensor while Redmi Note 13 5G calls it a real sensor. Lol gsmarena 🤡

Average phone, just look for something else.. this is the good thing about Xiaomi, they release a lot of different phones with different SoCs, screen, camera and so on.

Unfortunately, Xiaomi is using UFS 2.2 chips, which are on the slower side.
What?? Poco X6, redmi note 13 pro 5G, poco M6 pro using the same UFS 2.2!
What do you mean by slow?
If the phone use emmc, it is slow then!

Xiaomi be like: battery optimisations? never heard of that.
Where the heck is this company going, this is some worthless battery life for such a chip and a 5000mAh battery.
Heck, a base S23 does it better... I have no words for this except Xiaomi going even more lazy.
Such a shame, I remember them as the better china phone brand.
