It was recently reported that the Redmi 13C and its rebranded version, the POCO C65, are in the works. A new report reveals the existence of the Redmi 13C 5G, along with its model numbers and key specifications. According to Xiaomiui, the Redmi 13C 5G has different model numbers for different regions:
- 23124RN87C (China)
- 23124RN87G (global)
- 23124RN87I (India)
The publication had previously incorrectly
associated these model numbers with the Redmi 13C 4G. The Redmi 13C 4G has the
following model numbers 23100RN82L, 23108RN04Y, and 23106RN0DA. It is expected
to be released in global and Indian markets, but not in China.
The POCO C65 has the following model
numbers:
- 2310FPCA4G (global)
- 2310FPCA4I (India)
The Redmi 13C 5G is powered by the Dimensity
6100 Plus chipset, while the Redmi 13C and its rebranded POCO C65 feature the
Helio G85. The other specifications of the 5G variant are unknown. Shown above
are the leaked renders of the Redmi 13C, which appeared earlier this month.
They reveal a teardrop notch display, a USB-C port, and a 50-megapixel primary
camera. The 13C series is expected to run on MIUI 14-based Android 13.
The Redmi 13C is said to have the codename
“Gale,” while its 5G version is said to have the codename “Air.” It appears
that there will not be a POCO version of the Redmi 13C 5G. According to tipster
Kacper Skrzypek, both Redmi devices will carry dual codenames, with “Gale”
having a “Gust” variant and “Air” featuring an “Atmos” variant. The distinction
might be due to region-specific variations, possibly related to India or the
presence of NFC functionality. It is speculated that the Redmi 13C series and
POCO 65 may be released in October in different markets.
