While you've listed exterior specifications, my personal experience tells a different story. I used to have a Huawei P30 Pro and loved it. Now I own the Xiaomi 13 Pro, and I'm far from impressed. Why? The Xiaomi 13 Pro has a multitude of glitches: 1. Whenever I play or pause a video in a web browser, the phone beeps as if receiving notifications. It's quite irritating, and I can't seem to find a way to turn this off. 2. When using Google Maps for driving directions, I can't easily exit by pressing the 'x' in the lower corner. I have to stop the app, reopen it, and then press 'x' to go back. 3. The "Do Not Disturb" function is unpredictable. Some nights, notifications come through, and other times, the phone goes into silent mode on its own. 4. Occasionally, while in the middle of using an app, it suddenly crashes or closes. I didn't experience any of these issues with my Huawei. Plus, Huawei offered features like a call recorder and a password vault for apps. Its menu design was user-friendly. It's unfortunate that Huawei ran into issues with Google.
