Looking for the cheapest? There is no doubt: the Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G
All models offer a good AMOLED screen which, oddly enough, equals 6.67 inches. They are big and well-built phones, POCO stands out a little more thanks to its more youthful design and there is one model that is missing compared to the others: the Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G. It obviously lacks the 5G of its brothers.
It is less powerful than the others and its wireless capabilities are lower. On the other hand, it is cheaper: currently you can find it even below 250 dollars.
The most powerful? There is no doubt: POCO F6
You read that right: the most powerful of the five phones reviewed It is not the most expensive of allthe POCO F6 Pro, but its slightly cheaper sibling: the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 is a graphics beast to chew on.
This POCO F6 is a gaming machine, it will stay in perfect condition for much longer and the rest of the hardware accompanies it accordingly. For 450 dollars it is available.
Best camera: Redmi Note 13 Pro+
All five take very good photos and videos, you will have no problem taking shots in broad daylight. Even at night, if there is enough light in the scene, they are even excellent in portrait mode. Still, there has to be one that stands out: it is the Redmi Note 13 Pro+.
The rest of the Redmi Note 13 Pro has similar hardware to the Plus, although the greater processor power, along with some software improvements, make the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ more versatile and useful for quick photography. Even if manual adjustments are necessary: the results at 200 megapixels are quite good. You have it for just over 300 dollars.
The one with the best quality/price ratio: Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G
From tight budgets to those who have 600 dollars to renew their mobile: there is a Redmi Note 13 and a POCO F6 to choose from. But if you want to get the better return for your moneyOur recommendation is the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G. In fact, its price drops even more, it is in a medium range.
The Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 is a more than solvent processor, it has enough RAM and storage, it comes with 5G, its 5,100 mAh battery is the largest of the five and with the 67 W fast charger you will charge it in the blink of an eye. You have it for about 300 dollars.
