Xiaomi Redmi K50i

The Redmi Note 11T Pro Plus is an impressive device that offers great value for money. The phone features a Dimensity City 8100 chip, which provides smooth performance and good gaming capabilities. In our tests, the phone scored around 8 lakh in n22, making it a mind-blowing score at its rumored price. The phone comes with 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage, features that are usually found in flagship devices. The camera setup includes a 64MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro camera. While the photos taken were vibrant and eye-pleasing, the edge detection could be improved. The phone also boasts a 6.6-inch 144Hz IPS LCD display, which offers good colors and viewing angles, but is not AMOLED. The display's brightness is sufficient for outdoor use, but it may struggle in low-light conditions. Other notable features include dual speakers, fast charging, and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The phone has a plastic back and frame, and the battery life is average due to its 4400mAh capacity. Additionally, the camera's stabilization could be improved, and the selfie camera does not offer 4K recording. Overall, the Redmi Note 11T Pro Plus offers great performance and features at an affordable price, making it a compelling option for budget-conscious buyers.

The phone's performance is snappy, making it perfect for daily use, with a large 6.5-inch display and plenty of power under the hood. One of the standout features of the V40 Pro is its battery life, which lasts an astonishing two days on a single charge.

The camera system is also impressive, with a triple 50MP setup that delivers great results in various lighting conditions. The portrait mode is particularly noteworthy, offering a range of options and effects to suit different styles and preferences. While the V40 Pro excels in many areas, there are some minor drawbacks to consider.

Additionally, some users may find the software experience a bit laggy at times. In terms of optics, the V40 Pro's camera system performs well, with great results in various scenarios. The Ultra-wide angle shooter is particularly useful for capturing more in a single shot, and video recording capabilities are also impressive, with 4K resolution and stabilization available.
