Design
redmi This phone comes with an attractive design and is inspired by modern art. The company has done a good job on the design this time. However, according to the industry this design is not new. Earlier too, this kind of design has been seen in phones of some brands. It has leather finish in the rear side panel.
However, the vegan leather option is available only in purple color. Apart from this, the handset also comes in white and black colors. Curved display is available in the smartphone. The smartphone is handy and can be used even with one hand. There is no complaint with the phone in terms of design.

However, you get many apps pre-installed in the UI. Where other companies are making their UI light, so that users get minimum third party apps. A large number of pre-installed apps are still available in Xiaomi phones. This phone will not disappoint in terms of performance.
camera
Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G has a triple rear camera setup, whose main lens is 200MP. Apart from this, 8MP ultra wide angle lens and 2MP macro lens is available. Good photos can be clicked from the phone in daylight. However, the camera performance of the phone is not good in low light or at night.
The company can fix it with an update. At the front, the company has given a 16MP selfie camera. We did not like the performance of the camera very much. You can get much better options than this in this budget.
Battery and other features
The phone has a 5000mAh battery, which is good. You can use the phone for more than a day on normal use on a single charge. The phone supports 120W fast charging. This means that the device can be used for a long time by charging it for some time.
In this you get good quality speakers. There is no problem in calling and connectivity. The quality of the mic is also good. The smartphone comes with IP68 rating. Earlier, IP rating was not available in Redmi Note series phones.
bottom line
In the budget of Rs 30 thousand, you get many other options, which come with powerful features. Redmi seems a little confused about the price and features of this phone. This device can be purchased for less than Rs 30 thousand, but the quality of the camera can be improved.
At present the 200MP camera seems to be just a gimmick. Apart from this, the design and display of the phone is excellent. It also has a powerful processor and battery.
