Between the CMF Phone 1 and 13 Pro+, the CMF Phone 1 comes out ahead in several specs, while the 13 Pro+ wins on wired charging and antutu. Overall, the CMF Phone 1 scores 61.4 and the 13 Pro+ scores 65.2 on our Mars Score.
Which should you buy?
The 13 Pro+ edges ahead on the Mars Score (61.4 vs 65.2), but the 3.8-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
The CMF Phone 1 doesn't pull ahead on any single popular-comparison spec — its strengths sit in the spec table groups rather than the headline advantages.
Pick the 13 Pro+ if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. Its strongest claims are wired charging, antutu, front camera, among others.
Both ship with comparable main camera, refresh rate, 5g support, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
Bottom line: there is no wrong answer here — match the spec advantages to how you actually use the product. The Mars Score parity tells you both are well-rounded; the differences are about trade-offs, not quality.
