According to the president of Xiaomi, some Chinese iPhone 12 users would have happily switched to the Xiaomi 13. A conversion hitherto unthinkable for worshipers of the apple brand.
With its Xiaomi 13, 13 Pro and 13 Ultra, Xiaomi has every intention of on par with Apple and Samsung in the field of high-end smartphones. iPhone owners are known to be particularly loyal to the Apple brand. That said, the Cupertino company has lost some of its luster in 2022, with iPhone 14 and 14 Plus sales disappointing to say the least. According to Lei Jun, CEO of Xiaomi, this misstep will encourage iPhone users to check out the competition.
According to the director of the Chinese company, the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro have arguments to shake up the competition. He even claims that many iPhone 12 owners have already adopted them. Their chip Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 offers superior performance equivalent devices from Samsung and Apple, all at a more affordable price.
Compared to iPhone 12, Xiaomi 13 features faster charging, better performance and customizable overlay
According to Me Lei, two criteria convinced owners of an iPhone 12 to abandon Apple : the fast charge and signal quality of the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro. He mentions that new converts to the Xiaomi 13 particularly appreciate the fast wired charging of their device. When an iPhone 12 takes (theoretically) two hours or more to fill up, the Xiaomi 13 take 15 minutes to reach 100% (for the 13 Pro model, with the 120 W charger).
They also highlight the reception quality of the Xiaomi 13. Sound and volume would be excellent regardless of network coverage or where a call is made. In addition, the transition from iOS 16.2 to Android seems to have been made without a hitch, the new features and the interface of the manufacturer’s MIUI 14 software overlay, having undoubtedly facilitated the transition. Will these arguments be enough to convince iPhone 12 owners to buy a Xiaomi 13 or 13 Pro? We will have to wait a bit to have confirmation. Apple has learned from the failure of its iPhone 14s and plans to do better with the iPhone 15s, which are scheduled for launch in September 2023.
