The Xiaomi 13 Pro price in India has been revealed, couple of day after the phone’s global unveiling at MWC 2023. Xiaomi will offer the phone in sole 12GB/256GB configuration in the country. Xiaomi 13 Pro 12GB/256GB price in India is set at Rs 79,999. This is the best phone that Xiaomi makes at the time of writing with pricing to match.
Xiaomi 13 Pro India price, availability details
Xiaomi 13 Pro 12GB/256GB price in India is set at Rs 79,999. The phone will go on sale for the first time on March 10, 2023, on mi.com, Amazon, Mi Home and Mi retail partner stores. Xiaomi says it will offer up to Rs 12,000 additional exchange bonus to existing Xiaomi and Redmi users (Rs 8,000 for other smartphone users).
As we noted in our first look story, the Xiaomi 13 Pro will have a limited run in India (like the Mi 11 Ultra) which is to say don’t expect availability at scale. Xiaomi told FE that the Xiaomi 13 Pro is quite difficult and expensive to make – all units sold in India will be made in India— and its high-end camera tech may not necessarily appeal to everybody.
