As expected, Realme has taken the wraps off its new mid-range kings, the 13 Pro and 13 Pro+. The phones feature similar design and have many specs in common, although the 13 Pro+ has a slightly better camera.In fact, since the Realme 13 Series phones share so many specs, the price difference isn’t that big. The Chinese handset maker announced that the Realme 13 Pro is available for as low as Rs 26,999 ($320), while the 13 Pro+ costs Rs 32,999 ($395).

Moving on to the actual specs, both Realme 13 phones feature large 6.7-inch AMOLED FHD+ displays with 120Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection.
Another thing that the phones have in common is that they are powered by the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor. Furthermore, they pack similar 5,200 mAh batteries, but the Realme 13 Pro features 45W SuperVOOC wired charging support, whereas the Realme 13 Pro+ offers up to 80W fast charging speeds.
On the other hand, the Realme 13 Pro+ is the world’s first smartphone to pack Sony’s 50MP Sony LYT-701 main sensor (24mm), which is complemented by 50-megapixel periscope and 8-megapixel ultra-wide cameras.
