Anonymous, 01 Mar 2021Poco M3 has just over 400nits of brightness and most recent... moreThat's because of the Chipset itself or maybe Xiaomi just wanted to be first so they don't spend time optimizing it. Even the Mi 9 with 3300mah Battery is very good. Snapdragon 888 is basically an hot chipset and sucks a lot of power even if it says 5 nm. And yes, stereo speakers from Poco M3 are bad, but they are better than having one speaker. And also, Realme X3 Superzoom has 400 nits for an Flagship killer, which is unacceptable and it has no 5G. At the same price, around $400, i could get Poco F2 Pro Or Mi 10T Pro with better screen, cameras, chipset, speakers, and design. Realme X3 Superzoom design is very boring

And Snapdragon with 888 with 4500 mah will have terrible battery life. Just look at Mi 11.

They have great battery life. Also, the camera is about as same, but Xiaomi phones are very compatible with Gcam. And also their display is bright enough at 600 nits. And also, even entry level phones like Redmi 9T or Poxo M3 has stereo speakers, good battery life, and 600 nits.

I'll wait for the Realme GT, hope they've improved most of these things with their flagship. Asus Rog will be interesting too (There are rumors it will bring back the 3.5mm jack), but probably too expensive.
Moto S edge too.

Plus, the usb port won't last long. Very impractical in any way.

The vanilla K40 is definitely the star here with its price.

I will use bluetooth headphone/earphone in the future but definitely not now. Maybe when the technology has caught up and almost as good as wired audio devices. The disparity between wired and wireless is still night and day.
Looks like I'll be looking for device with 3.5mm jack elsewhere. K30 pro is looking like not bad of an option.

Anonymous, 28 Feb 2021Yes, there are more expensive wired headphones. But the maj... moreproblems isn't quality. Problem is that wireless headphones have battery empty all the time when you need them and want to listen the music or watch a video. I have some 10 euro headphones and i dont much care for the quality of them. For the content i use the headphones and in what environment i am in with them wont really matter much of the sound quality anyways cause of the background noise wont be canceled out anyways so whats the point of looking some audio quality to listen in studio environment to make difference. Other problem with the wireless is that you can easily lose them

Best budget would be Realme 3X Superzoom 12gb ram model. Might have an older chipset, but it's still 7nm and was top of the line not to long ago.it is under 400$....while also having a periscope camera and decent battery size/charging speed.

Your dumb, 28 Feb 2021Why not get a tiny dongle if you really want a 3.5mm?Dongles are not all that appealing and cable's on or for them know to be problematic still if you want audio quality and proper output power they are becoming the only option as LG and Vivo are cutting the cord regarding quality and/or jeck. And there's phone charging/additional battery suckling Inconvenience of course. Anyway with or

Well Mi have outdone it self with snake oil and doungrades this time around. While most folks would have complain about the 60 Hz display on K30 series actually I don't suport the high refresh rate one's yet. When they become adaptive with good implementation and much more efficient than it would be OK along with higher number of quality apps and games suporting it. Mi didn't menage thing's good with K30 Pro not making most suitable option available as Poco F2 Pro (8/128), base one 6/128 whose cut down and it didn't went all that good however they always can do worse and that's what K40 and K40 Pro stands for. The K40 Pro+ is a upgrade but lack of more config variants available won't do him no good the rest and how eventually it will be appellant in the end depends on competition.
