such as the iQoo 11 5G (Review), OnePlus 11 5G (Review) and the Samsung Galaxy S23 series

Joining the league is Xiaomi’s most premium smartphone offering to date, the Xiaomi 13 Pro

The new flagship features top-of-the-line hardware and was announced here at MWC 2023. The highlight feature is its new 1-inch camera sensor

There is more to the Xiaomi 13 Pro than just the main camera sensor, and here’s our first look at the phone

The Xiaomi 13 Pro comes in two premium colours — Ceramic Black and Ceramic White. We have the black colour option which has a glossy back panel

While it is a fingerprint magnet, I do like the overall look of the phone

Xiaomi has bundled a case inside the box for people like me, who like to keep their phone’s back looking neat and clean
