Xiaomi Redmi 13X surfaces with new design and familiar specs

Xiaomi has updated its Redmi series once again, having already released Redmi Note 14 smartphones like the Redmi Note 14 Pro Plus this year globally (curr. $369 on Amazon). This time, the company has presented the Redmi 13X in Vietnam as a new budget-friendly option.

In short, the Redmi 13X shares many of its specifications with the Redmi 13 4G that it introduced last year. Specifically, Xiaomi has combined a MediaTek Helio G91 Ultra chipset with a 5,030 mAh battery and a 6.79-inch IPS display. For reference, the Helio G91 Ultra provides a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU, two ARM Cortex-A75 performance cores and six Cortex-A55 efficiency cores.

Meanwhile, the Redmi 13X can recharge its battery at up to 33 W, but only via a wired connection. On top of that, its large display outputs at 1080p with a 90 Hz refresh rate and 550 nits peak brightness (HBM). Xiaomi remarks that the Redmi 13X comes with 128 GB of storage too, as well as 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM.

Moreover, the company has installed 108 MP primary, 13 MP front-facing and 2 MP macro cameras, but within a design that is closer to the Redmi Note 14 series than last year's Redmi 13 4G. Currently, the Redmi 13X is available for VND 4,290,000 (~$168) with 6 GB of RAM or VND 4,690,000 (~$183) for its 8 GB of RAM variant. Details of any international launch remain unknown for the moment.
