Mi 13 Review :From specification to experience,From partial to comprehensive

Although the press conference is a few days late,But the Mi 13 series did not live up to everyone’s expectations,Judging from the online feedback after the press conference,Everyone seems to be very interested in the Mi 13 with a straight screen design,We also received Mi 13 White top version,Next, let’s experience Xiaomi Mi 13 with everyone ,Let's see if 13 is really fragrant。

The appearance of Mi 13 can see the shadow of the iPhone,Because it uses a high-gloss aluminum alloy right-angle frame,In order to take care of the feel,The back is a 3D curved glass back cover,Therefore, the experience when holding is much better than that of the iPhone with the same right-angle frame design.。

Mi 13's front face value is quite high,The full screen with extremely narrow edges on all sides looks very comfortable,And the top, bottom, left, and right borders are almost equal in width,The radian of the R angle of the screen is also basically consistent with the frame,I believe many friends will like this design。

The screen size of Mi 13 is 6.36 inches,Compared with the flagship phones with a size of 6.7 inches, it is considered a small screen.,Coupled with a body thickness of 7.98mm and a body weight of 189g, Mi 13 has a good one-handed holding experience,And because it is a straight-screen design,So it's not so easy to accidentally touch when typing with one hand。

Since the screen is mentioned,In addition to the direct screen design,The overall quality of the screen of Mi 13 is also very good,Peak brightness of 1900 nits,The screen display is also clearly visible under sunlight during the day。for me personally,Although this screen does not have a 2K resolution,But the actual experience feels that the screen is still very delicate,More importantly, Mi 13 brings full DC dimming and HDR display。

Full DC dimming can effectively reduce eye fatigue caused by screen flickering,The HDR display can better display high dynamic range photos or videos such as HDR,After all, Mi 13 also supports 4K 10bit Dolby Vision HDR video recording。

HDR display needs to be manually turned on in the album settings,When displaying HDR photos in actual measurement, it will also show higher brightness and more details in dark parts than ordinary screens.,However, when playing back Dolby Vision HDR video,,The color temperature of the screen will change a lot,Maybe it needs to be optimized later。

In fact, my favorite on Mi 13 is the 75mm telephoto,This telephoto lens can provide 3.2x optical zoom,The picture quality is good enough in the case of sufficient light,Can provide more creative space,Even when zoomed to 5x,Picture quality performance is still adequate。certainly,In extremely dark scenes, this telephoto lens will inevitably have more noise,But many times it can bring enough surprises。

I don’t use super wide-angle in daily life,The ultra-wide angle of Mi 13 is generally quite satisfactory,day or night,The picture quality in the center of the screen is still ok,But the edges of the screen can't stand zooming in。

Video aspect,Both the main camera and the 75mm telephoto lens of Mi 13 support 4K 30fps Dolby Vision HDR video recording,It can bring more space for those who like to shoot videos。

In the performance that everyone pays more attention to、outside the image,Mi 13 also does a good job in other aspects,For example, it supports IP68 dustproof and waterproof,Can be used in more harsh environments for daily use,Also supports WiFi 6 enhanced version,Enables faster peak rates and lower power consumption,Also supports Tesla、BMW、Tengshi and other brands of car digital car keys, etc.。

In addition, under the support of the system MIUI 14,Mi 13 really feels like an iPhone to me。Here's like,means as smooth as an iPhone,The system animation is smooth and rarely drops frames,And small screen in one hand,There is a feeling of pointing where to hit。

As a small screen flagship,Mi 13 looks more like a bucket machine to me,In terms of performance, the second-generation Snapdragon 8 is not so hot.;Image is supported by Leica,Also gave a 75mm telephoto lens;The screen is still E6,But it gives high-frequency PWM dimming and album HDR display;Although the battery is only 4500mAh,But battery life is good,Wired up to only 67W,But it also gives 50W wireless charging。It's hard for me to say which performance of Mi 13 is outstanding,But it has indeed completed the transformation from partial to a certain parameter to caring for a comprehensive experience,And this is what more ordinary consumers want。
