The Xiaomi 13 series was supposed to launch this week alongside MIUI 14, but it was delayed alongside the launches of Huawei, iQOO and MediaTek. We still have some details on the Xiaomi 13 Pro’s camera system. It will use the 12S Ultra’s 1-inch main camera, a Sony IMX898 sensor. The 3x telephoto lens will have a movable lens, which helps it focus down to 10cm when needed. We’ve also seen a changelog for MIUI 14 with more customization options, an all-new widget format, a focus on privacy, and more.
