On April 26th, Gizcoupon reported that Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun discussed the positioning of the Xiaomi 13 series phones on Weibo yesterday. The series consists of three phones, each targeting a different user group:
- Xiaomi 13 is aimed at the general public and is a small-sized phone with a comfortable grip. It supports a narrow four-edge screen, a Leica triple-camera, a telephoto lens, and an IP68 rating, among other features.
- Its Pro version is aimed at photography enthusiasts and has a Leica triple-camera, 1-inch large sensor, 120W fast charging, ceramic body, and other high-end features.
- Its Ultra version is aimed at professional photographers or those with a passion for photography. It has a camera-like design, a Leica Summicron lens, and dual telephoto lenses.
In response to a netizen’s inquiry about making even smaller phones, Lei Jun stated that the Xiaomi 13 is already excellent. Additionally, it has the same width as the iPhone 14, striking a balance between screen size and grip. Furthermore, making phones even smaller would result in a smaller consumer base and insufficient sales to support the R&D costs of flagship phones. In addition, this will limit camera and battery performance due to the small size. Many netizens agreed with Lei Jun’s response in the comments.
