A new leak by tipster Sudhanshu has allegedly revealed the designs for the unannounced Xiaomi 13T smartphone. As you may recall, both the device along with its Pro sibling have recently been spotted in SIRIM’s database, indicating that Xiaomi will launch the two for the local market sometime in the near future.
Based on the images provided, it appears that the Xiaomi 13T will feature a flat display with a punch-hole camera cutout on top, as well as a rear case with curved edges. Puzzling enough, Sudhanshu claims that Xiaomi will release the smartphone in two versions for different regions. What sets them apart is the camera island in the back, where one version is shown to feature an intricate design along with Leica branding, while the other sports a more simple look but with no mention of the German camera maker.
Xiaomi 13T will be launched in 2 versions: one with Leica branding and the other without Leica branding.
Specifications of both phones are exactly the same. While some regions will receive the Leica-branded version, others will not.

In a follow up post, the leakster notes that Europe will be one of the markets that will receive the Leica version. It is unclear whether the Pro model will also be affected, though it is very likely – provided that Sudhanshu’s leak is accurate, of course.
In terms of specifications, prior rumours are suggesting that the Xiaomi 13T Pro is a rebadged Redmi K60 Ultra that debuted in China last month. If true, this would mean that the phone may be equipped with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate, a RAM configuration of up to 16GB, a 5000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support, IP68 protection, a Sony IMX596 20MP selfie camera, as well as a triple-camera setup consisting of a Sony IMX707 50MP primary, 13MP ultra-wide and a 50MP telephoto. Conflicting reports suggest that its chipset could either be a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 or a MediaTek Dimensity 9200+.
Meanwhile, the standard Xiaomi 13T is believed to feature the same display, battery capacity and imaging capabilities as its sibling, along with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 256GB storage. Details of its onboard chipset are also conflicting across several sources; some suggest that the phone will feature a Snapdragon 7+ Gen2, while others say it’s a Dimentsity 8200 Ultra instead.
Seeing that details surrounding the specifications for devices are inconsistent, our best bet is to wait for an official announcement by Xiaomi. On that note, it’s still not known when the company is planning to officially reveal its new Xiaomi 13T series just yet.
