Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro Review: You want to Buy This?
Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro Reveiw - This smartphone is worth Rs
27,999. It was being hyped long before the launch. The tagline was the same,
but is this phone really amazing?
Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi has recently launched Redmi
K20, Redmi K20 Pro in the Indian market. This is the first flagship smartphone
of Xiaomi's all-brand Redmi. There has been a lot of discussion about the price
of Redmi K20 series in India. Some people said that the company has kept its
price high. Some say that the company is not known for expensive smartphones.
But first of all, let us know that in terms of specifications and features, we
got the price of Redmi K20 Pro right.
After using the Redmi K20 Pro for some time, I also felt
that this is a smartphone that can affect the sale of other Android flagships.
However, it also has its own shortcomings about which you will understand
yourself by reading this review.
Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro Review Design and Build Quality
There is no problem in the build quality of the phone. Body
glass has Gorilla Glass 5 also used on the rear panel. It is also called glass
sandwich design. I have reviewed the Glacier Blue variant. The company has
really worked on the design and it looks fantastic. The phone fits well in the
hand and you will be able to use it with one hand. The rear panel is curved so
it is easy to hold. The rear panel is a fingerprint magnet, but it is only for
the center. There are blue colors on both sides, which does not affect many
with fingerprints.
There is a camera lens at the top of the center on the rear
panel, a module has two lenses at the bottom and dual LED flash light is given
below it. The center bottom has the branding of Redmi.
There is a pop up selfie on the top and it glows. The headphone
jack is also given above. On the right side is the red color home button and
the volume rocker keys. The bottom has a speaker grill, a SIM tray with USB
Type C is provided here.
Overall, the look and feel of the Redmi K20 Pro is quite
good and looks like a completely premium smartphone.
Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro camera
There are three rear cameras in Redmi K20 Pro. One of them
is 48 megapixels, the other is 8 megapixels, the third is 13 megapixels ultra
wide lens. The company has given telephoto lens instead of depth sensing, which
is a good thing. For selfie, it has a single mottled pop up camera which is 20
megapixels.
The camera is impressive. Photos are good clicks. Indoor
photos, or photos in low light, are averaged. If the lighting is correct, the
cameras of this phone show amazing and click such pictures which are sharp,
full of details and solid. Portrait photos are also good and the camera
separates objects well from background to camera. Close up shots are also
amazing.
Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro Performance
Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 has been given in Xiaomi Redmi K20
Pro which is 7nm based. This smartphone has 8GB of RAM and here the company has
used UFS 2.1 storage. Android Pie based MIUI 10 is available here in the
software department. You can also use Poco Launcher in it.
This smartphone gives top notch performance. Be it gaming or
multi-tasking, it does not disappoint you everywhere. The phone is fast, smooth
and does not feel lag. However, during gaming and running many applications
with it, there was a slight lag in the phone, which should not have happened.
Talking about multi tasking, Poco Launcher works well and
switching from one ace to another app is quite easy. Open multiple apps at once
and keep running in the background and do not take time to load.
There is no big reduction in overall performance and it is a
very smart smartphone for mixed use.
Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro battery backup
A 4,000mAh battery has been given in Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro.
In the box you get an 18W charger. Although this phone has been supported by
Quick Charge 4+. But for this you have to buy charger from outside. Xiaomi has
launched a 27W Sonic Charger priced at Rs 999.
Talking about backup, Despite having a 4,000mAh battery, you
get decent battery life. In mixed use, full-day backup can be found
comfortably. Even after listening to pubs, videos, active social media accounts
and songs, you can remove backup from morning to night. If the phone is used
less then this phone will give you a backup of 1.5 days.
Should you buy this smartphone?
Redmi K20 Pro is a very good smartphone in this segment. It
is expressive in almost every department. There are more smartphones at this
price. But the display of some smartphones is good, the performance is good,
but the camera is not good. It makes up the shortcoming - Redmi K20 Pro.
