Sreekanth Easwar, 28 Dec 2022They have released 3 generations of phones after K20 series... moreThat's just the way it is...nowadays if you want zoom cameras you need to buy flagships. It's cheaper for manufacturers to brag about triple or quad camera setups with only a single decent camera :/ 2mp macro, 2mp depth/monochrome, 8mp ultrawide...

No 3.5mm jack no buy, 28 Dec 2022Yes, they're so stupid that that don't care about... moreThey care to a certain point. And also why waste time and money to put a feature that, really small minority is going to use? Doesn't really make much sense from a business standpoint.

Anonymous, 27 Dec 2022OMG yet another phone with trash 8mp+2mp. 🤬🤬🤬
When will ... moreWith these prices, I think they were cutting costs in the camera department to hit certain price points and still including a great 1440p display.
To me, these are not cameraphones. These are flagship killers focusing on display and chipset over cameras, and that's okay.
Of course storage and RAM markups are still very much prevalent, that's what I'm complaining about along with no sd card slot

Everything is good here. But camera sensor in redmi k60 made me upset. Omnivision.
K60e has better one Sony imx598 which is superior and which was used in iqoo 7 India.

Xelomot, 28 Dec 2022The difference it's only ~15% between k60e(2200 yuan) ... moreFair point about no Poco with a mediatek chipset. My point was mainly about the price. If they do rebrand the K60 then it will probably be at least $100 more than last year's Poco F4 so the price will be going up significantly.

Katta92, 28 Dec 2022Xiaomi is getting really annoying with that 2mpx macro garb... moreI 100% ageee.. This time it's even shaped as periscope lens to trick people into buying this shit for the cameras! Just give us the periscope with a bit of a price bump, or make it only so the pro+ version has it... If you wanna cheap out then don't even bother with these 2mpx Macro/DOF bs sensors

Anonymous, 27 Dec 2022Still denies OEMs think snapdragon 8 is better than mediate... moreLast years, OEM didn't think 8 Gen 1 (not the plus one) was better than 9000!
Every OEM known both 888 and 8 Gen 1 were bad but were forced to buy many!
Results were : devices with throttling issues!
Qualcomm has licences and can preasure OEM...
They let Mediatek sell lower end (with less benefices), so they have excuse if someone accuse them of anticoncurrential behavior : look Mediatek is number 1...but forget to say : in term of number of soc, but far behind in term of revenus!
At least with 8 Gen 2, they provide a good soc and...AV1 support (3 years After Mediatek!)
Something many journalists nearly never emphasis...thanks you for the trip in Hawaii!

Sreekanth Easwar, 28 Dec 2022They have released 3 generations of phones after K20 series... moreTecno isnt newcomer, They are older than Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo etc. Its just they dont use Qualcomm soc, only Old MTK soc, thats why you see their flagship only when mtk has flagship soc.

Gusta, 28 Dec 2022Maybe he wants cheaper price because Mediatek SoC is cheape... moreSometime having really powerfull gpu with lower clock do help, Sd 8G2 gpu use arond 7W but playing normal game use just 3W (sd 695 level) and heavy games like Genshini around 5W. Dimensity 9000 use lot of power achieving same thing.
Cheaper soc is Dimensity 8100/8200 these Dimensity 9000 series are as expensive as any flagship soc from Qualcomm, there is a reason why no Midrange use them.

Remember, this price is for China only even Xiaomi 13 series. The global variants will have more expensive price and he wants cheap price with decent specs like D9000 or D9000+. Maybe for him, the GPU of D9000 and D9000+ is more than enough for "just Android games". Not PC games level.
Don't forget that the GPU of D9000 and D9000+ is also powerful for its price. Let alone D9200.
