Xiaomi 13 Pro vs iPhone 14 Pro Max: Has Xiaomi built the iPhone killer?
Up until just a couple of years ago, Xiaomi was the company you went to for a good budget phone, but these days things have changed and the latest Xiaomi 13 Pro flagship costs almost as much as an iPhone 14 Pro Max.
So what does the Xiaomi 13 Pro bring to the table and is it really a worthy alternative to the popular iPhone 14 Pro Max?
In this comparison, we explore the triple main camera on the Xiaomi which includes one of the most impressive, 1-inch type main camera sensors ever put on a smartphone and an innovative zoom camera, we also look at the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip inside and how it finally rivals Apple's own A series of chips, and we also compare the battery life, charging speeds and all the other details that make a smartphone experience good or bad.
Xiaomi 13 Pro vs iPhone 14 Pro Max in a nutshell:
Xiaomi has thinner, lighter and sleeker design
Both have excellent quality screens
iPhone still has the lead in performance but they are really close
Xiaomi offers more storage at a lower price
iPhone has slightly longer battery life
Xiaomi charges much quicker (and you get a charger with it)
iPhone is a bit more expensive
The iPhone 14 Pro Max is such a familiar design these days with that flat screen, flat shiny sides and matte glass back, while the Xiaomi 13 Pro certainly feels a bit different. It has a tapered front and back, and it comes in a choice of three different materials, a black glass, white ceramic color or even a blue leather like finish with a warmer feel and that nice to the touch texture.
The Xiaomi also weighs far less and is not quite as wide, which makes it easier to use with one hand.
Both phones have an IP68 water and dust protection rating, which is nice to see (but we expect no less of flagships), and both have nice and clicky buttons.
Xiaomi 13 Pro vs iPhone 14 Pro Max: Has Xiaomi built the iPhone killer?
No huge differences in screen quality either. Both screens are OLED at 6.7 inches diagonal and with gorgeous colors. The iPhone has a wider screen though with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio, while the Xiaomi goes for a narrower, 20:9 screen, and we prefer a slightly wider screen.
