Redmi Note 13 4G vs Redmi Note 13 5G</b>

Still confused about which one to choose? Come on, see the complete explanation about the two Xiaomi phones below:

Cell Phone Design and Accessories

When you buy these two cellphones, you will get complete accessories such as a case, charger, USB type C cable and SIM Injector. 

At first glance, the design of these two phones is similar. It's just that in the 5G series the camera shape is a little more prominent.

So if you care about the appearance of the cellphone you are using, clearly the 5G version looks more elegant. However, it comes back to the buyer's taste. 

Screen Dimensions and Features

These two phones both use screens AMOLED with a refresh rate of 120Hz. However, the 5G version is coated with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 while the 4G version is coated with Corning Gorilla Glass 3. 

Apart from that, the 5G version of the cellphone also looks thinner and feels lighter. The 5G version of the cellphone also has a dynamic refresh rate which can drop to 10 or even 1 Hz, while the 4G version is constant at 120Hz. 

Speaker Quality

Maybe from here you can start to decide which cellphone to use. You need to know that the quality of the 4G version of the speakers is much better than the 5G ones. 

The 4G version of the cellphone is supported stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos. Meanwhile, the 5G version of the cellphone still uses a mono speaker. 

Even though the speaker quality is different, fortunately both phones support a 3.5 mm headphone jack. 

Camera Quality

These two cellphones have the same front and rear camera resolution, namely 16 MP and 108 MP. But the images produced by these two cellphones are very different.

The 5G variant has sharper and more accurate images than the 4G one. The AI camera quality of the 5G variant is also better than 4G.

The 5G photo results are much more natural than the 4G variant photos which tend to be yellowish.

Phone Performance

This flagship Xiaomi cellphone carries the same operating system, namely MIUI 14. On these two cellphones, several applications that have the potential to display advertisements do not display advertisements at all. 

Regarding performance, these two cellphones are clearly different, because the chipsets used are also different. The 4G version uses Snapdragon 685 while the 5G version uses Dimensity 6080.

The AnTuTU score of the 4G version of the cellphone reached 452852 while the 5G version was only 355152. From this score it is clear that the 4G version of the cellphone has superior performance. 

Quoting from the Canggih Kali YouTube channel, this cellphone has poor performance for playing games. To play PUBG Mobile, players must only use smooth high graphics. 

Apart from that, this cellphone also does not support graphic quality Mobile Legends ultra high. For the best game performance, you can only use medium graphics levels. 

So, from the explanation of the specifications above, it can be concluded that the Redmi Note 13, both 5G and 4G, is not suitable for playing games. 

The reason is that in this price range, there are many competing cellphones that support optimal gaming performance with high graphic quality. 

However, with its beautiful design, good screen quality and good speakers, this cellphone is suitable for daily use. Also consider the network options these two phones have, because not all areas have a 5G network.
