2. Evaluate the advantages of Xiaomi Redmi 13C phone

Xiaomi is always a manufacturer that knows how to create appeal for its products and Redmi 13C is no exception. This phone model possesses a series of outstanding advantages compared to its “competitors” in the price segment such as:

2.1 Stylish design

The first advantage when evaluating the Xiaomi Redmi 13C is its modern design. The device has square lines with flat edges, while the main camera cluster is placed in a square module on the back.

The sophistication of Redmi 13C is shown in the plastic back with a matte finish, which not only helps provide a firm grip, but also minimizes fingerprints, especially for those with a lot of sweat.

In addition, Redmi 13C is also equipped with a USB Type-C charging port instead of the microUSB type like its predecessor or some other phones in the segment. The new charging standard helps bring a lot of convenience to users. In addition, Redmi 13C is also integrated with a 3.5mm headphone jack, with a fingerprint lock located on the power button for convenient screen unlocking.

The screen of the Xiaomi Redmi 13C phone is also finished with quite thin edges similar to mid-range smartphones. In addition, the device is also equipped with a stylized U-shaped front camera cluster with a compact design, which brings a modern front appearance, while also helping users have a more comfortable space to use the device.

2.2 Quality 90Hz display

The highlight of this cheap Xiaomi phone is that it has a 6.74-inch screen, providing a very large usable space, especially for users’ entertainment needs. The Redmi 13C’s screen also has a 90 Hz screen refresh rate – a feature that not many phones in the low-cost segment have.

With a 90Hz screen, the device offers a smoother screen experience than phones with standard 60Hz screens.

2.3 Powerful configuration

Configuration is always the strength of the Xiaomi brand and this is also an advantage when evaluating the Xiaomi Redmi 13C phone. The device is integrated with a Helio G85 processor chip manufactured on a 12nm process with an 8-core structure (2×2.0 GHz Cortex-A75 & 6×1.8 GHz Cortex-A55) along with a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU.

With impressive configuration, Redmi 13C also owns impressive performance scores on famous scales:

On Antutu V10: Xiaomi Redmi 13C scores 270,460 points in overall performance

On GeekBench 6: Xiaomi Redmi 13C scored 430 points in single-core and 1,302 points in multi-core, OpenCL graphics score: 567 points.

On PCMark: Redmi 13C scored 8435 points.

This performance score is enough for the device to be able to use popular applications such as Facebook, TikTok, Zalo, Messenger… well and play games such as Lien Quan Mobile, PUBG Mobile at low game configuration quite well. This can be said to be a quite impressive advantage of Xiaomi Redmi 13C in its price segment.

In terms of software, the device is also installed with the latest Android 13 operating system with MIUI 14 interface customization, bringing modern experiences to users. Users have 4GB or 6GB RAM options (if you play games, you should choose this version), and 128GB internal memory is quite comfortable for users’ data storage needs. In addition, the device also supports microSD cards, allowing you to expand the storage space by 1TB.

2.4 Quality 50MP camera

For a phone priced at 3 million VND, being equipped with a main camera of up to 50MP is certainly a rare thing. This gives the device the ability to take pictures with good detail and accurate colors. In addition, the device also has 2 additional cameras to optimize portrait photography scenes, close-up photography, etc.

In addition, Xiaomi Redmi 13C also has an 8MP front camera that supports video calling, livestreaming at a stable level, and taking selfies is also quite good.

2.5 Huge battery for all day long

The last advantage that we appreciate about Xiaomi Redmi 13C is the 5000 mAh battery that gives the device a comfortable all-day usage time without worrying about running out of battery. With the intensity of use of the elderly, or those who use it less, it may take 2-3 days to charge the battery.

18W fast charging technology also helps shorten charging time, bringing many conveniences to users when using the device.

3. Evaluate the disadvantages of Xiaomi Redmi 13C phone

Besides many advantages, Redmi 13C also has certain disadvantages, specifically:

– IPS screen with HD resolution (720 x 1080 pixels) makes the displayed image content not really sharp but just okay. In addition, the colors are a bit dark.

– Although the camera is better than other phones in the segment, it still has a typical disadvantage that the color of the captured photos is 1 tone lower than the actual color, along with poor anti-shake ability, especially when recording video.

4. CONCLUSION: Should you buy Xiaomi Redmi 13C phone?

Through the advantages and disadvantages after evaluating Xiaomi Redmi 13C above, it can be seen that:

  • Xiaomi Redmi 13C is a great choice in the 3 million VND segment, especially for elderly users or first-time smartphone users.
  • For the need to play mobile games, or for more professional use of young users, you should invest more to buy a phone in the 5 million segment to optimize the experience.
