Xiaomi Philippines has added a new smartphone to its entry-level offerings.

The Redmi 13 4G, the successor to the well-received Redmi 12 4G, is now official locally. Priced at P7,999 (roughly $137), it will be available for purchase starting July 12 in Midnight Black, Sandy Gold, Pearl Pink, and Ocean Blue color variants. Every purchase on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop from the 12th to July 20 comes with a free pair of Redmi Buds 4 Lite.

The Redmi 13 boasts several key upgrades over its predecessor, with the biggest highlight being the camera.

Gone is the 50-megapixel sensor of the Redmi 12; in its place sits a whopping 108-megapixel main rear shooter that’s equipped with a 3x in-sensor zoom.
