, the new Xiaomi 13 series phone originally scheduled to be released on December 1, was postponed for well-known reasons. It is confirmed today that it will be released at 19 pm on December 11. In other words, compared to the original plan, it was ten days later.
For the ever-changing mobile phone industry, there will be many uncertainties brought by ten days. For example, the first launch championship of Snapdragon 8Gen2 was won by Xiaomi 13, and the mystery that Xiaomi 13 was originally maintained was exposed by the outside world...
However, the so-called real gold is not afraid of fire. From these two new features that the official exposed today, we can still see the uniqueness of the Xiaomi 13 series!
1. Xiaomi 13 after lighting up the screen, the visual four-equilateral design is amazing
Before the news of the press conference was paused, we already knew that the Xiaomi 13 series adopts a customized high-end OLED straight screen design, with the chin width 1.81mm and the other three sides width 1.61mm. If this data is not intuitively impressive, it can be compared with the 2.4mm four equal sides of iPhone 14 or the 2.15mm of iPhone 614 Pro. But even so, there is still no intuitive visual impact that can be seen at a glance.
Today, the official blog of Xiaomi exposed the real photos after the front screen is lit up. It can only be evaluated in one sentence - the visual four-equilateral design is amazing. In addition to the color scheme of wilderness green glazed ceramics, distant mountain blue, glass white and the color schemes of Hurricane Yellow and Flame Red that have not been officially confirmed but rumored, this phone can have a place in the flagship mobile phone market with its appearance, but it still wants to compete for its strength. Speaking of strength, the second point to be mentioned is one of the biggest differences between Xiaomi 13 series and its competitors in the same level.
2. The entire series is equipped with IP68+ technology nano-skin, creating the reality of the "most resistant" mobile phone in history
IP68 is not new on flagship phones, but before that, it was basically limited to large cup and super large cup products. This time Xiaomi 13 is the standard for the entire series, which is one of the differences. At the same time, the Xiaomi 13 series also innovatively uses an unprecedented material - technological nano leather. In addition to its visual nobleness and leather comfort, it also has better anti-wear, anti-discoloration and anti-dirty capabilities. From today's official video, we can see that whether it is ink, paint or other defilements, if you wipe it gently with a tissue, you will restore your clean and bright color.
For this reason, combined with its entire IP68 features, I suddenly had a bold idea: wash it cleaner in the future!
has been discussed in the previous article. The Xiaomi 13 series can clearly rely on its appearance, but now it still wants to win with its strength. As for its performance, you can get a glimpse of the Leopard Spot from the previous official announcement. Now, it is briefly summarized as follows:
1. The top performance iron triangle combination
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen2+LPDDR5X+UFS4.0 combination, among which Snapdragon 8Gen2 is an excellent processor that has not been seen in Qualcomm products for many years. The CPU multi-core performance is 37%, and the GPU is 25% ahead of the A16 of Apple , and has a motherboard power consumption that is almost the same as A16. That is to say, while maintaining the same power consumption as the A16, the performance of Snapdragon 8Gen2 is significantly ahead. This excellent energy efficiency is higher than , which may create an opportunity to overtake on the 2023 Android flagship .
As for 's latest LPDDR5X memory, the performance is improved by 33%; UFS 4.0 flash memory is improved by 100%; MIUI14, which expands the "Razor Plan", is turning the blade inward, preparing to strive to create an ultra-pure system with "minimum firmware, minimum memory occupancy, and least uninstallable applications", which will feature lightness and smoothness. A good horse is paired with a good saddle, and the overall performance can be imagined. No wonder some media have released review content today, and they praised their comprehensive performance game performance.
2. The unique Leica image experience greatly improved
Xiaomi's image improvement is the most obvious improvement of the 13 series image, and the 12 Ultra technology half a year ago is fully decentralized. It not only adopts the same Leica optical lens, the same Leica native dual image quality, and the same master lens package, but also has Xiaomi's image brain, everything is chasing focus, and many techniques for shooting in a flash... It can be said that it is the name of Pro and the soul of Ultra.
With the combination of Sony IMX989 one-inch large bottom main camera + Leica optical lens + the entire series 75mm Leica telephoto lens , the photography experience of this phone should be worthy of the market's expectations. What's more, the Pro version is equipped with a Leica 75mm floating telephoto lens, which has a built-in floating focus needle lens group - a technology derived from a SLR is used on smartphones.
In short, as the representative of Android flagship mobile phones in 2023, the Xiaomi 13 series has many highlights and is still worth looking forward to.
