The launch of the Xiaomi Mi 13 has been postponed. The specific release time still remains mysterious. However, this allows us to get more information before the series of flagship smartphones is officially uncovered. What’s more interesting, there will be many other products as well. They include the company’s first mini PC, a new router, a pair of wireless earbuds, etc. Let’s take a look at the most-anticipated products on this list.
Xiaomi Mi 13
The design of the Xiaomi Mi 13 has been greatly changed. It adopts a right-angle frame, a straight screen design, and a square module design on the rear. The overall design is relatively simple and has many things in common with the iPhone.
As Lei Jun has previously said, the three sides of the Xiaomi Mi 13 are only 1.61mm, while the widest is only 1.81mm. As a result, the screen-to-body ratio is as high as 93.3%. As a reference, the four equal sides of the iPhone 14 are 2.4mm wide, and the iPhone 14 Pro is 2.15mm wide. The price of Mi 13 will start at 4299 yuan ($612).
Xiaomi Mi 13 Pro
The Pro variant of the phone will have a different design. They are made for different groups of users. That’s why they only have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip in common. However, this doesn’t mean that one has an advantage over the other. No. Both are equally powerful and elegant.
As for the Mi 13 Pro, it uses a ceramic body. Plus, unlike the Mi 13’s straight screen, it has a curved screen. The latter uses the Samsung 2K E6 screen with high-frequency PWM dimming.
As for the camera, the Mi 13 Pro will come with the same Sony IMX989 one-inch primary camera as Mi 12S Ultra, with a built-in floating focusing lens group. By the way, its focusing technology is derived from SLR cameras. This variant should support a 120W+50W+10W charging combination.
Both Mi 13 and Mi 13 Pro support IP68 dust and water resistance.
Xiaomi Watch S2
The Xiaomi Watch S2 supports new health management “black technology”: body composition measurement, body fat percentage, skeletal muscle, and other health data can be measured at will.
According to the official promo posters, the Watch S2 provides a new dual-size design, adding a small size 42mm model. It comes with an exclusive light gold stainless steel design and a new contrasting color buckle strap.
Xiaomi Buds 4
The Xiaomi Buds 4 true wireless earphones will come with independent spatial audio technology to support multi-device and cross-platform use. The headset also has a head-tracking function. Through the built-in six-axis sensor, it can intelligently identify and dynamically track the direction of the head. It will bring an immersive experience of 360° surround sound and head movement.
Xiaomi mini PC
This machine adopts an all-metal design. It has a better texture than the common NUC products. Moreover, it looks more like a work of art on the desktop, a bit like an Apple Mac mini. There are the power indicator light, 2 USB ports, 3.5mm headphone jack, and a concave power button arranged from left to right on the front. The right side carries small heat dissipation openings.
This mini host will sport the Ryzen 7 6800H processor, which is designed as a high-performance notebook processor with a 6nm process, a Zen3+ CPU architecture, eight cores, 16 threads, and a maximum frequency of 4.7GHz. The display unit integrates Radeon 680M with RDNA2 architecture. Also, it supports HDMI 2.1, 4K 60Hz high-definition output, etc.
The model with no memory and SSD will cost 2,999 yuan ($427), while the 16+512GB version will come for 3,999 yuan ($569).
