Redmi Note 13 Pro makes Geekbench debut alongside new Snapdragon SoC

Leaks about the highly-anticipated Redmi Note 13 series of smartphones have been picking up steam of late. It was recently revealed that the middle-of-the-pack Redmi Note 13 Pro would be one of the first smartphones to use Qualcomm's questionably-specced Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC. The smartphone has now made its Geekbench debut, giving us a glimpse into how the SoC holds up against its competitors.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro's Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 scores 1,012 and 2,943 points in Geekbench 6.1's single and multi-core tests, respectively. That is a respectable performance uplift over its predecessor's (Redmi Note 12 Pro) Dimensity 1080 SoC. However, users could run into some thermal throttling due to the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 being manufactured on Samsung's problematic 4 nm node.

This particular Redmi Note 13 Pro variant has 16 GB of RAM, runs Android 13 out of the box, and is likely the maxed-out version. Given the increasing popularity of 24 GB RAM smartphones, it wouldn't be surprising if Redmi has one up its sleeve. Other Redmi Note 13 Pro specs are said to include a 200 MP camera and up to 1 TB of internal storage. Redmi will unveil the smartphone on September 21 in China. There is no word about a global release just yet.
