Adding to the flurry of launches this December is the Xiaomi Redmi 13R 5G in China.
A look at the spec sheet and the budget-friendly smartphone turns out be essentially a rebranded version of the Redmi 13C 5G, released in India last week.
So there is nothing much the Redmi 13R can tell us that the 13C already had.

Powering the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor, accompanied by a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU.
The handset is offered in a single 4GB RAM + 128GB storage option which you will notice is less than the Redmi 13C which had a 256GB option.
