Xiaomi to announce the Xiaomi 13 Pro later this month

Xiaomi launched the Xiaomi 13 series in December 2022 in China. The series consists of the Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro, both powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.

Now, the company has officially announced the launch date of the Xiaomi 13 Pro for the global markets including India.

Xiaomi 13 Pro launch date and availability

Xiaomi has confirmed that the Xiaomi 13 Pro will finally launch outside China. The company will announce the India launch of the phone on February 26.

The announcement will be live-streamed at 9:30 PM on Xiaomi’s website, YouTube Channel, and other social media handles.

Since this will be the announcement, we can expect the device to be available for purchase in March.

As for the pricing, we can expect Xiaomi to keep the Xiaomi 13 Pro’s pricing aggressive since other players with the same chipset have been launched at aggressive prices.

For the uninitiated, OnePlus recently launched the OnePlus 11 5G starting at Rs 57,000. Last month, iQOO launched the iQOO 11 5G starting at Rs 60,000. Both phones are powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.
