Redmi Note 13 series global launch set for January 4, 2024

In September, Xiaomi unveiled its Redmi Note 13 series in China, sparking rumors of a global launch. Speculation was pointing to an early January release, and it turns out those rumors were right.

Xiaomi officially declared a Redmi Note 13 series event scheduled for January 4, 2024, as noted on its official site (via GSMArene). Get ready for the international debut of the Redmi Note 13, Redmi Note 13 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro+. While exactly where these phones will be released remains a mystery, the countdown has begun and the answers are on the horizon. The launch event will likely be streamed live, making it accessible to everyone online.

Under the spotlight, the Pro models have impressive features, including a 200 MP 1/1.4-inch main camera, a 6.67-inch 120 Hz AMOLED display at 1220 x 2712 px, and substantial batteries. The Pro+ goes further with IP68 water resistance and Dimensity 7200 Ultra, while the Pro houses a Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 and a slightly larger 5,100mAh battery. All three phones run directly on MIUI 14 based on Android 13. Notably, the European pricing of the Redmi Note 13 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro+ have already made their way into the limelight. If the leaks are correct, Europeans can acquire the Redmi Note 13 Pro for €450 and the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ for €500, depending on local VAT rates.

As for colors, both phones are expected to grace the European market in black, blue, and white. However, information on memory variants is limited so far, with details available for only one model with 12/512 GB of RAM.

As Xiaomi continues to expand its global presence, the United States remains a question mark when it comes to the availability of the brand's phones. As of now, there is no clear indication of when or if Xiaomi will bring its phones to the United States. Those wanting to get their hands on a Xiaomi Redmi phone in the US may have to turn to unofficial retailers or consider importing it from another country.
