Not as much as Hyped but a Good Phone..... Review on Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro 8GB

K20pro is in fact the most hyped mobile in the year 2019.

Let me start with what I felt is not upto the mark:

DISPLAY: Redmi says it has AMOLED FULL HD display(unlike Samsung Quad HD Super AMOLED) panel. I was using Asus Zenfone 5Z before switching to K20pro(5Z has Super LCD). K20pro display is no way near to Samsung AMOLED(i know it is not quad HD and it is just full HD). Even at max brightness the display feels something more to be desired.

A weird issue which I noted is "TEXT GLOW"(not sure it is limited to my unit or it is common for all k20pro). The black coloured text edges look as if they are lit from the back side. It is noticeable only when ur looking at a black text on bright white background. It looks like someone is throwing light from the backside of the letters. It disappears in all other backgrounds. As strange as it sounds, it is true. Unfortunately, I could not find any similar complaints or incidents any where on the web.

About MIUI Ads:

I can surely tell, that there are no ads whatsoever. But you should unselect the recommendations options while setting your mobile for the fisrt time; otherwise u may notice ads. If ur getting ads, just reset the phone and unselect while resetting the mobile.

SINGLE BOTTOM SPEAKER: Seriously? Even Oneplus is giving dual stereo speakers from OP7.In 2019, so called flagship killer having a single speaker is not palatable. But, the single speaker is loud enough and also clear even in noisy backgrounds. If you are using in portrait mode, it is highly likely that the speaker may get covered by our hands. have to live with that

THE GOOD ONE’S:

1. Flagship processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 855; the king of 2019

   
   




2. Triple Rear Camera’s: 48 MP main camera with Sony IMX 586 sensor

   
   




3. 13 MP Ultrawide lens; 8 MP telephoto

   
   




4. 20 MP POP UP SUPER STYLISH SELFIE CAMERA(EYE TURNER EVERYWHERE)

   
   




5. Compatability for Google Camera(Camera2API enabled)

   
   




6. Excellent build quality

   
   




7. Super stylish killer looks; flame red is my favourite

   
   




8. Front and back Corning Gorilla Glass 5

   
   




9. And the most useful and rare thing these days “3.5 mm headphone jack”

   
   

FINAL WORDS: K20pro is definitely one hell of a beast in terms of looks, performance and VALUE FOR MONEY. It is the safest best for a flagship killer.

TIP: Use the Gcam App instead of native camera app for SELFIES and NIGHT PHOTOS…You will fall in love with Gcam photos shot on K20pro…
