The Xiaomi 13T Pro is faced with a legion of really excellent phones against which it has to compete, and as we found out in our review, that's a big problem.
Xiaomi 13T Pro MSRP $856.00 Score Details “The Xiaomi 13T Pro is a decent smartphone let down by its inability to stand out and deliver on the promise of its Leica camera.” Pros Cons The Xiaomi 13T Pro has a bit of a problem, and it’s one the manufacturer can’t do much about. It’s not a bad phone at all, but it faces a sea of excellent ones released over the past year.
Inside the box with the Xiaomi 13T Pro is a flexible, transparent case that obviously adds protection, but also increases the phone’s not-inconsiderable weight and girth — a consequence of its 20:9 aspect ratio screen. I’ve been using the Xiaomi 13T Pro as my main phone for a few days, and I find MIUI is somewhat intrusive with its suggestions to try this or that app. At least it’s customizable, so I can change the look. Notifications are its weak point, as they don’t reliably appear on the lock screen.
However, it’s not at that level right now. I’m using the phone ahead of release, so software updates may come in the future to improve it, but the camera hasn’t impressed as instantly as the Xiaomi 13 Pro’s. A 5,000mAh battery powers the phone, and it’s recharged using the supplied 120-watt HyperCharge fast charger. Xiaomi says it takes just 19 minutes to fully recharge, and in our tests, this may be a little optimistic — with it taking about 23 minutes to go from 1% to 100%. However, I tested it using an adapter to change the European-spec wall plug to a U.K. one, which may cause the discrepancy.
