RedmiBook Air 13 with 10th gen Intel Core i5 chipset, 16GB RAM launched

Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi has launched a new laptop under its RedmiBook Air series. The new RedmiBook Air 13 comes with the 10th gen Intel Core i5 processor, and in two configurations.

RedmiBook Air 13 starts at CNY 4,699 ( ₹50,600 approx) for the base model with 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD. Its 16GB+512GB SSD configuration carries a price tag of CNY 5,199 ( ₹56,000 approx). There’s only one silver colour for the RedmiBook Air 13. The laptop will be available first in China. There’s no word on its global availability yet. Xiaomi hasn’t launched its Redmi laptops in India yet, but it did debut the Mi NoteBook series here last month.

As the name suggests, the RedmiBook Air 13 features a 13.3-inch display with 2,560 x 1,600 pixels resolution. The laptop is slim and light but with a rather thick bottom bezel. Like the Mi NoteBook, the RedmiBook Air 13 also doesn’t have a webcam. The laptop comes with Windows 10 pre-installed, and uses Intel’s integrated graphics chipset for graphics.

The connectivity options on the RedmiBook Air 13 include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth v5.0, two USB Type-C ports, and one 3.5mm headphone jack. The laptop has a 41Wh battery that is claimed to last for over 8 hours on a single charge. It also supports charging via the USB-C port.

The RedmiBook Air 13 was introduced quietly while the company launched its first gaming laptop ‘Redmi G’. Redmi’s first gaming laptop comes with 10th gen Intel i7 Core chipset, 144Hz display and NVIDIA’s GTX 1650 Ti graphics card.
