Xiaomi Redmi K50i Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos
Xiaomi Redmi K50i Overview
Xiaomi Redmi K50i - repetition for good
The Chinese Xiaomi company has been repeatedly seen in re-releases of its successful smartphones under various names and brands. The heterogeneous popularity of the lines in different countries, the need to adapt software and a set of 3G and 4G frequencies in certain regions obliged the manufacturer to act in the manner indicated earlier. However, the audience is unlikely to be upset by the release of phones like the hero of today's review.
A fan of the corporation will definitely recognize the design of the so-called novelty, but this fact cannot be written down as a disadvantage. An IP53 splash-proof glass back, up-to-date triple camera unit, an ergonomic side-mounted fingerprint scanner and narrow bezels for IPS-type displays leave a pleasant impression of a monoblock. But it is very easy to understand that we are not dealing with a flagship. So, the edging is made of plastic, and the installed IPS screen clearly lacks brightness and contrast compared to AMOLED counterparts. But the matrix is ready to boast an excellent resolution of 2460x1080 pixels, as well as an impressive 120 Hz refresh rate. A protective film is pasted on the OGS display, even it has an oleophobic layer, albeit not very effective.
A storm of positive emotions among gamers will be caused by the latest Mediatek Dimensity 8100 processor, 6GB / 8GB of RAM and the Mali G610 MC6 video accelerator. The performance of the bundle would have been top-end last year, and even now more than 800 thousand points in Antutu cannot be considered a weak result. Of course, all the most resource-intensive games lend themselves to the chipset. Exceptions will not even be the famous Fortnite and Genshin Impact, pleasing to the eye with impeccable graphics. And if the IPS display is far from the concept of energy efficient, then these words do not apply to the CPU. As a result, the battery of 5080 mAh is always enough for a full day of active work with the gadget, and sometimes there is a charge for the second day. The fast charging power has been increased to 67W, so you will have to spend an insignificant 25-30 minutes at the outlet. As for the internal storage, there is no possibility of its expansion. Therefore, from versions with 128 and 256GB of ROM, it is strongly recommended to buy the last option.
The main photomodules are 64-, 8- and 2-megapixel sensors led by the mid-budget Samsung GW2 without optical stabilization. Savings are hard to notice in daytime photos, because the amount of detail preserved and the naturalness of color reproduction are at a high level. But evening shots acquire numerous noises, even not the smallest objects can upset with blurring. Stereo sound is present, but the volume and balance of the frequency response are not record-breaking, and the top speaker is noticeably quieter. Among the competitive advantages, NFC contactless payments, support for 5G networks and, of course, the branded infrared port and the MIUI shell, which has extremely wide functionality, also stand out. And if the night photography capabilities of cameras are not important to you, then the considered Android smartphone is 100% suitable.
