Xiaomi 13 series gets YouTube Premium, Google Pixel Magic Eraser for free

The Xiaomi 13 series, the flagship lineup released on February 26 ahead of MWC 2023, comes packed with special offers and features. In addition to a free six-month subscription to YouTube Premium, the Xiaomi 13 series smartphones also get the “Magic Eraser” feature that was previously limited to only Google Pixel devices. Xiaomi announced a partnership with Google at the MWC 2023 event, currently underway in Barcelona, ​​Spain. This association basically marked the integration of popular Google products with the Xiaomi 13 series.

YouTube Premium, which recently surpassed 80 million paid subscribers, allows users to stream unlimited content, ad-free. On the other hand, the Magic Eraser feature allows users to erase unwanted objects from their photos. There is a catch, however, that shouldn’t be missed in these too-good-to-be-true deals attached to the Xiaomi 13 devices, which include the vanilla Xiaomi 13, the Xiaomi 13 Pro, and the Xiaomi 13 Lite.

Just like the free subscription of YouTube Premium, the Magic Eraser feature will also be available for free use on Xiaomi 13 devices only for six months.

With this integration, Google aims to reach more people to try its Google One subscription plan for free. It expands storages for Google Drive, Photos, as well as Gmail. In India, the plan starts at Rs. 130 per month.

Android and iOS users can purchase Google One and use the Magic Eraser feature.

The high-end variant of the Xiaomi 13 series – the Xiaomi 13 Pro – was launched with the latest MIUI 14, which is based on Android 13. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. 820mAh supporting 120W fast wired charging, 50W wireless charging and 10W reverse wireless charging.

The basic storage variant has a starting price of EUR 999 (around Rs. 87,600), while the Xiaomi 13 Pro is priced at EUR 1,299 (around Rs. 1,13,900). On the other hand, Xiaomi 13 Lite costs EUR 499 (around Rs. 43,800). Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro come with a Leica-branded camera.
