Until they fix HyperOS battery usage, useless.
It's by far the worst battery hog of them all since it came out, except in some devices in which they bother to optimize or invest SOME time in them, like Xiaomi main series.

If you are correct the Poco F7 pro would be the Turbo 4. In that case then there is a great possibility that the Poco F7 Ultra would be the Redmi k80 and not the k80 pro. Of course, that's if you are correct on the Poco F7 pro using the Dimensity 8400 because the Turbo 4 is using that in China and last year the Turbo 3 was the standard Poco F6

        Poco F7 is also certified. It's with snapdragon 8s Gen 4 which is yet to release.


        Poco X7 Pro is also certified. It's with Dimensity 8400.

Sure it has a significantly better main camera than the k80 pro (the OV50h might cost them another 15 euro or so than the OV50e) but the K80 pro has a significantly better screen, an ultrasonic fingerprint reader, a significantly more expensive processor a bigger battery, and a slightly better telephoto with the jn5 and OIS (although the telephoto is still a little weak). I can't see why it would be cheaper that the Xiaomi 14t pro although I don't think they'll launch it globally in any case.

This is the biggest price increase for any Chinese flagship this year. Yes it is better than the k70 pro but it launched also for a considerably more expensive price. The latest price of the K70pro is 2,649rmb which is over 1000 cheaper too. I'd go for the k80pro but it's wrong today it's cheaper

                K80 has IP rating, Ultrasonic fingerprint reader, is launching with a lower price tag and has a significantly bigger battery.

                            You know that Xiaomi is serious about battery life this time when they actually slapped two battery-related chips inside the phone just to keep the phone from heating too much and the SD 8 Elite from being too power consuming lmao.

                            Hopefully the phone can bring an impressive battery life even if the battery is 550mah smaller than the Redmi K80.

                                  Poco F7 with snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and mediocre IMX 882, mostly, under 300-350USD.
