Anonymous, 19 Apr 2021no one: some 10 year old tech expert in this comment sec... moreThere are nothing from Samsung that can compete with the hardware specs and price with Xiaomi phones so indeed Xiaomi is superior to Samsung if you get same hardware for half or 1/3 the price of Samsung

    JayrBars, 19 Apr 2021Im a bit sad i bought a poco f3 after reading this. Anyway,... moreThe RedmiGaming undoubtly will have lower camera setup than F3.
    And still no news on headphone jack and MicroSD slot.

    Personally i value X3 Pro that still have those two thing, tough its a shame that they have to lower the camera setting to stuff SD860 in it.

      That is dirt cheap for a gaming phone.
      Good competition to the Poco F3

        JayrBars, 19 Apr 2021Im a bit sad i bought a poco f3 after reading this. Anyway,... morePoco f3 is better. Certainly for me anyway as Snapdragon gets custom ROM support and more developers. My redmi 8 pro won't let me install twrp recovery and it's because it's mediatek. I'm waiting for my Poco f3 but it's perfect for me as some developers will build custom ROMs and recovery for it soon as I can't stand miui. Using these phones with custom ROMs transforms the user experience and let's you take full advantage of the phone's real power. My Xiaomi mi 10T lite 5G is like a different phone since I installed the pixel experience ROM on it.

          which mean this will never leave China market unless we got downgrade to SD750G or if we are lucky SD860 or something

            Im a bit sad i bought a poco f3 after reading this. Anyway, i bought it for just 280usd equivalent last month

                when they talk about big battery
                means
                phone will have big dimensions
                its not like that, will have smal size... like fewer than 160mm tall

                    SMIRNAS, 19 Apr 2021soo,, what Redmi sacrifice to get to that price rangethey use MTK SoC : no developement support, no gcam support ... and no software support for future android versiond ! good luck

                      For that high screen refresh rate, I was expecting a 6000 mah battery pack.

                        If everything is true, need to already take the queue for a purchase.

                            Anonymous, 19 Apr 2021Anyone who said this gonna be bellow SD 888 or perhaps 870.... moreIt's actually higher than Snapdragon 870 but lower than 888 infact it us also more efficient than the 870 due to the new 6nm chip.

                              Anonymous, 19 Apr 2021bring the 120w from the bs4!!Already at the end of the year, charging will be 0.5 kW, and in turbo mode, the power will rise to 1.5 kW, so that the phone does not burn out, you will need to put a special gaming mug with coffee, which will be very convenient, hot coffee and a full battery while you take a break to the toilet

                                  The most anticipated Redmi on this year. It will be for sure more expensive than RN10P or Poco X3 Pro; however it will be a good deal at the end.

                                      JohnPieux, 19 Apr 2021A gaming phone with an ARM Mali GPU? Even if you ignore the... moreHad a SD865 Samsung previously. I’m wondering besides the GPU driver on the Play Store, is there another way to obtain more game drivers. For instance, COD Mobile at the highest settings (no antialiasing) ran really well, even at BR mode. It even got 50fps with 720p screen recording (on BR) at the same time. Meanwhile other games like Genshin Impact won’t run properly even at medium 30fps, and there are occassional screen glitches and many graphical bugs. Probably why the Xiaomi phones run better with the same chip is because they may have GPU drivers other brands lack.

                                        This will only help cause gaming phones to reach an even wider audience. Redmi know that there are a lot of people who prefer not to spend $500 or more for a gaming phone... By pricing it at $300 and having seriously uncompromising specs like the Redmi one currently has. It is going to be a seriously intense and interesting gaming phone.

                                        Thanks to Redmi. Gaming phones will now reach an even more wider audience... This is really serious actually... I was hoping gaming phones remain an ultra niche area for the elite in the phone market... Now gaming phones are ever more gaining unprecedented popularity...

                                        Never thought I would ever see the day that I would as a gaming phone user say this...

                                        But gaming phones are now mainstream like never before... Just can't believe there wild popularity... No longer are we gamers an ultra niche in the market... Gaming is mainstream.... Gaming phones are mainstream. Shocking... I thought I was like one of the few... Not anymore...
