The Xiaomi 13 Pro is the latest flagship from the Chinese manufacturer to finally hit the global market. Since it is the third best-selling brand worldwide, it has big goals with its current range. This tip clearly stands up to the best we currently have on the market. In the case of Apple, it is logically the iPhone 14 Pro Max. 

Display and dimensions 

  • iPhone 14 Pro Max: 6,7" LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED display with a resolution of 1 x 290 pixels (2 ppi density), refresh rate up to 796 Hz, maximum brightness of 460 nits (120% screen-to-body ratio) 
  • Xiaomi 13Pro: 6,73" LTPO AMOLED display with one trillion colors and a resolution of 1 x 440 pixels (3 ppi density), refresh rate up to 200 Hz, maximum peak brightness of 522 nits (120% screen-to-body ratio) 

The extra 0,3 inches that Xiaomi has is only a minimal difference, but it makes the device taller (even if it is narrower). But it clearly scores in resolution, on the contrary, it loses in brightness. The displays of the iPhone 14 Pro are first-class and there is no need to envy a solution from another stable. Despite the larger construction, the Xiaomi is lighter. The manufacturer simply does not use such premium materials as Apple. 

  • iPhone 14 Pro Max: 160,7 x 77,6 x 7,9 mm, weight 240 g 
  • Xiaomi 13 Pro: X 162,9 74,6 x 8,7mm, weight a 229 g

Performance, memory, battery 

We know very well that no matter what kind of chipset an Android device manufacturer deploys, it still won't be enough for the latest iPhones. The Xiaomi 13 Pro does have the best in the form of a chip Snapdragon 8 Gen2, but it is evident that the iPhone with its A16 Bionic chip will still escape him. Both chips are made with 4nm technology, although Apple's solution is six-core (2×3,46 GHz Everest + 4×2,02 GHz Sawtooth) and Qualcomm's eight-core (1×3,2 GHz Cortex-X3 + 2×2,8 GHz Cortex-A715 + 2x2,8 GHz Cortex-A710 + 3x2,0 GHz Cortex-A510). All memory variants of the iPhones have 6 GB of RAM, Xiaomi has 128 GB for the 8 GB version, the 256 GB version can be had with 8 GB or 12 GB of RAM, the 512 GB version comes with only 12 GB of RAM.

Xiaomi did not manage to get the rather standard battery capacity of 5 mAh into the body of the device, so you will only find 000 mAh here. The iPhone 4 Pro Max will offer 820 mAh, but at Apple we are used to lower values, as well as slower charging. It can only do PD14 somewhere around 4W, 323W wireless through MagSafe and 2.0W through Qi. The flagship Xiaomi will offer 20W wired charging (PD15), when you have 7,5% in 120 minutes (the iPhone can handle 3.0% in 19 minutes). Wireless charging is 100W, there is also 50W reverse charging.

The Xiaomi line-up certainly looks great, also because it is accompanied by the famous name of the optics manufacturer Leica. Of course, it will also provide video in 8K at 24 fps, which the iPhone cannot do natively and you have to use an application for this. Of course, Xiaomi has an optical fingerprint scanner under the display, iPhone has its Face ID.

Price 

Xiaomi 13 Pro has done well. It's a top-of-the-line phone that will find its customers who demand the best in a mobile device. It has a great huge and curved display, an eye-catching camera setup and blazing fast charging. How it will hold up as a whole will be revealed only during testing. But the device also has a very attractive price tag.

In the country, you can already pre-order the Xiaomi 13 Pro in the version with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, for a discounted price of CZK 29, when the full version will be around CZK 999 (availability is planned for March 31). It is not only significantly less than iPhones, but also less than in the case of the biggest rival in the form of the Samsung Galaxy S499 Ultra, which this novelty can also properly overwhelm.
