As specified in its name, the Xiaomi Book Air 13 is a 13.3-inch laptop. Keeping things short it comes with an OLED screen and the latest 12th-generation CPUs from Intel.



The display of the Xiaomi Book Air 13 is one of its key selling points as it is not a common theme to use an OLED panel in laptops. It features an E4 OLED panel that has a 2.8K resolution of 2880 x 1800 pixels with a 225 pixels per inch density. The display has support for HDR 500, Dolby Vision, and DC dimming against PWM.
