Redmi fans are mostly confused between Redmi Note 13 and Redmi 13C when selecting a phone. Though both have a similar digit in their name, they also have many differences in specifications and prices. The Redmi Note 13 price in Pakistan is significantly higher than that of the Redmi 13C price in Pakistan.
A Budget Vs. Flagship Phone
The Redmi Note series is known for its high-end features and customer experience. Every year, they introduce variations and higher standards. The Redmi Note 13, the latest Note series variant, has the best features you can get in any Redmi phone.
However, comparing it with a budget Redmi 13C seems too basic. We cannot have any higher expectations from 13C. At the same time, we cannot ignore the fact that it’s one of the best sellers in the history of Redmi phones.
Redmi 13C seems a suitable and popular option for budget phone users looking into quality, precision, performance, and affordability. It’s so good and loved by people that we had reservations about whether its procedure, Redmi 14C, could make it to the market or not. But, like always, Xiaomi did its magic and raised the bar.
Reviewing Redmi Note 13 Vs. Redmi 13C
Suppose you are struggling to decide between these two popular models. In that case, you must know about them in detail, so here is what we have concluded in our review.
The Performance Comparison
Even without testing, we can say the Note 13 is more powerful and performs better than the 13C. The stats tell it all: The Note comes with a Snapdragon® 685 – 6nm chipset, whereas the 13C is powered by MediaTek Helio G85.
G85 is fairly decent when it comes to performance, but when we played games on the device, the 6GB RAM of Redmi 13C wasn’t even supporting the heat. There was a lag in the transitions, and the device heated up so fast when it was used for some aggressive tasks.
On the other hand, the Note 13 was quite stable and performing. The Snapdragon® 685 was paired with 8GB RAM, supporting the action and giving more power to you. We can say that the gamers are quite happy with its performance. Still, you cannot have a nonstop gaming experience with the phone. For better performance, you should consider the Redmi Note 13 Pro.
Another reason for the performance difference was the refresh rate of both screens. Redmi Note 13 has a 120Hz refresh rate, whereas 13C has a 90Hz. This causes more lags on 13C with high-resolution graphics.
The Camera Testing
Getting a 3-lens camera kit in a budget phone seems good news for every smartphone user. Redmi 13C attracts users due to its 50 MP main camera, a 2MP macro camera, and an auxiliary lens. Though we do not find the third lens useful, the other two lenses and an 8MP lens on the front are useful. They are good at giving you clear and vibrant pictures in the daylight and a well-balanced indoor light. However, low light settings or evening clicks are not good at all.
On the other hand, the Redmi Note 13 price in Pakistan includes a 108MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera. These three make a perfect combination for well-lit and attractive pictures. Plus, the front side has a 16MP camera that offers clearer and better selfies.
We are impressed by the phone’s picture quality, which gives you crisp images in good light and well-lit pictures, even at night or low light. The AI-powered camera auto-adjusts the brightness to ensure you will not miss out on the details. Somehow, we felt the camera could over-lit the images in certain cases. But, overall, it’s a good win. If you are interested in low-light photography with a smartphone, pick Xiaomi 14T with Leica-powered lenses.
Battery Timing & Charging
Battery power and charging seem important variables when testing the devices; however, in this case, we are at a dead end. Like all other latest models, these two come with a 5000mAh battery that is a standard in the market. However, the capacity changes for both are quite different.
The Redmi Note 13 comes with a 33W efficient fast charging feature that will recharge your device in no time. However, the 18W fast charging of 13C is not as fast as it is claimed, and you may have to spend a few extra minutes waiting for the phone to charge.
Final Verdict
Redmi 13C and Redmi Note 13 are not a comparison of each other at all. Both are massively different and have a huge shift in features and prices. If you want a reasonable device, the Redmi 13C price in Pakistan offers you a good bargain.
However, for a mid-range experience with advanced features, the Redmi Note 13 is a nice option to pick up. The best part is that you can bag any of these devices at the best price from the Xiaomi Sale and have fun.
