Third-party reviews

What customers like about Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ (16GB + 512GB)

  • Excellent, bright (120Hz curved AMOLED) display with minimal bezels, vivid colors, and Gorilla Glass Victus protection.
  • Premium, stylish design and solid build quality with an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, a first for the Redmi Note series.
  • Extremely fast 120W wired charging (charger included in the box) that can achieve a full charge in under 30 minutes.
  • Very good performance for a mid-range phone, handling daily tasks and gaming smoothly thanks to the MediaTek Dimensity 7200-Ultra chipset and ample RAM/storage options.
  • Impressive 200MP main camera that captures detailed, noise-free photos in both good and low light conditions, with a usable 2x zoom option.
  • Good battery life, typically lasting a full day or more with regular use.
  • Quality stereo speakers with good balance and adequate bass, enhanced by Dolby Atmos support.
  • Fast and reliable in-display fingerprint sensor.
  • HyperOS is generally seen as an improvement over MIUI, with smooth animations and useful customization options.

What customers don't like about Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ (16GB + 512GB)

  • Ships with older Android 13/MIUI 14 software out of the box (though HyperOS updates are available), and offers a shorter update commitment compared to some rivals.
  • Significant amount of pre-installed bloatware (extra apps and games) that requires manual uninstallation.
  • The 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro cameras are generally considered underwhelming and not very useful, especially the macro lens.
  • Lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack and no expandable storage (microSD card slot).
  • Some users reported occasional software stutters, app notification issues in MIUI, or heating during extended gaming sessions/fast charging.
  • Curved display design, while premium-looking, is an acquired taste and can be more susceptible to drop damage and make screen protectors harder to find.
  • The glossy back on some color variants is prone to smudges and fingerprints.

Verdict

The Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus (16GB RAM + 512GB storage) offers a premium-tier experience with its powerful MediaTek Dimensity 7200 Ultra processor and generous memory configuration for smooth gaming and multitasking. Key pros include a vibrant 6.67-inch 1.5K 120Hz AMOLED display protected by Gorilla Glass Victus, an impressive 200MP main camera with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), and a flagship-level IP68 water and dust resistance rating. Its most notable feature is the 120W HyperCharge, capable of fully charging the 5000mAh battery in under 20 minutes. The primary drawbacks are the inclusion of bloatware in its MIUI/HyperOS software, an underwhelming 2MP macro camera, the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack and wireless charging, and camera performance that is not always consistent despite the high megapixel count.
