Redmi K20/K20 Pro
Xiaomi makes a play for the budget flagship space with its new dynamic duo, the Redmi K20, and the K20 Pro. Visu-ally, there’s little to tell the Pro and the K20 apart – both take a bold leap forward with a mesmerizing gradient rear panel pattern on the Glacier Blue and Flame Red variants, and the use of pop-up selfie cameras and an in-display fingerprint scanner gives both models a stunning all-screen fascia. The screen itself is a punchy 6.39-inch AMOLED display, which gives little room for complaint in terms of colors, contrast and brightness levels. Performance is where the K20 Pro dominates courtesy the top-shelf Qualcomm Snapdragon 855, making the Pro the most wallet-friendly way to buy into the top league of performance smartphones. Yet, the Snapdragon 730 on the K20 is no slouch, and you’ll only ever see the difference when you’re playing one of the latest games at the highest graphics settings. The camera performance on both phones is largely similar – the 48MP sensor shoots detailed images with a wide dynamic range, but images with the telephoto and the super versatile ultra-wide-angle lens are a little softer on details. Battery life is pretty stellar on both, and the K20 Pro benefits from faster 27W charging (enabled by an additional charger purchase) while the K20 ships only with 18W fast charging.
