Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus review: A slam dunk from Xiaomi?

Xiaomi is ringing into the new year with the Redmi Note 13 series, the first big smartphone launch of 2024. Per usual, there are three phones. The classic Redmi Note 13 will get you all the basics. But if you can loosen your purse strings a bit, and buy the Redmi Note 13 Pro Plus instead, you’ll get a phone that will pull off the occasional slam and dunk with ease thanks to its Corning Gorilla Victus screen protection and IP68 water and dust resistance rating (the Redmi Note 13 Pro is the same phone mostly at lower prices without the IP68).
