A budget 5G phone at a good price: The Xiaomi Redmi 13C

Recently, the Redmi 13C was introduced in India. This is a 5G phone that the business presented for approximately Rs 10,000, which opens up the 5G device to more individuals with very limited budgets. The company has disclosed a discount of Rs 1,000 on some bank cards, reducing the price from Rs 10,999 to Rs 9,999. In case you missed it, here is a quick summary of our in-depth evaluation of this phone in five points.

Five-point rating of the Redmi 13C: A good 5G phone at an affordable price:

The design work by Redmi is excellent. A shimmering effect and beautiful geometric patterns are produced when light interacts with the rear panel, along with a range of green-yellow hues. The rear panel keeps its neat appearance. With a boxy shape and a somewhat wider form factor, the Redmi 13C offers a bigger viewing area for content. The device has a lightweight design and is elegant and thin.

People in this price bracket usually look for a simple phone that has a large screen and a long-lasting battery. These expectations are met by the Redmi 13C, which has a large 6.74-inch LCD screen with noticeable bezels around it. With a peak brightness of 600 nits, the panel is exceptionally bright—a trait that is uncommon in the lower price range. The vibrant colors and support for 90Hz contribute to a somewhat smoother scrolling and navigation experience compared to 60Hz.

The phone performs mostly well overall. Basic functions like watching videos, chatting on WhatsApp, and browsing through social media applications didn’t cause me any problems. Subway Surfers and other casual games ran nicely and with little lag. Graphically demanding games aren’t meant for this device, but even so, I was able to play them.

Under the hood of the Redmi 13C is a 5,000mAh battery. After using the device for social media, messaging, and sometimes binge-watching, it usually lasts me more than a day. Thus, if users limit their use to the essentials, the Redmi 13C will provide a good amount of battery life. Although the included charger only supports 10W, the firm has enabled support for 18W rapid charging.

Although the Redmi 13C doesn’t have very good all-around camera performance, I can state that it performs fairly when there is enough light in the scene. Under ideal lighting circumstances, the primary 50-megapixel rear camera can produce detailed and vibrant photos.
