The Xiaomi 13 smartphone has been spotted on the BIS certification website with its model number and a myriad of other key details. This is a major sign that the device is headed to the Indian market soon.
The Xiaomi 13 series will comprise the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro smartphones. The word on the street is that the Xiaomi 13 series duo will go official by the end of this year.
Regrettably, Xiaomi is currently keeping other key details about the 13 series under wraps. Yet, some pieces of vital information about the much-awaited smartphones continue to surface online.
Reliable tipster @OnLeaks shared the Xiaomi 13 Pro smartphone’s design renders earlier this month. Also, the Xiaomi 13 Pro will reportedly retain the 1-inch camera sensor of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
However, the vanilla model isn’t likely to get notable upgrades over its predecessor. It is unclear when will Xiaomi bring the 13 series smartphones into the Chinese market.
According to a report by Android Authority, the Xiaomi 13 series could break cover by February 2023. However, the report points out that Xiaomi released the 11 and 12 series smartphones in late December. So, the Xiaomi 13 could make its debut next month.
