                        By doing quick maths.(dividing battery capacity per charging time)
                        - redmi note 7; 10w: 28mah/min
                        18w: 32mah/min
                        - zenfone m2; 10w: 29mah/min
                        -realme 3; 10w: 24,8mah/min
                        You can see that realme is the slowest.

                        Benchmark scores aren't 100% accurate.
                        By comparing the performance of zenfone max pro m2, realme 2 pro and redmi note 7. All of these have the same processor. Asus is the worst while redmi is best in antutu and gfxbench and realme best in geekbench (that you said it's useless)

                        Redmi note 9 pro scored better than realme 7 pro (both use sd720g

                        Your arguments are useless because charging speed has nothing to do with software and benchmark scores aren't 100% accurate.

                          Anonymous, 19 Nov 2020Show le a test where realme 3 or asus zenphone charges fast... more1. Search Redmi Note 7 charging test.
                          Search Realme 3 & Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 charging test.

                          Realme 3 & Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 have bigger batteries (4230mAh & 5000mAh) than Redmi Note 7 (4000mAh).
                          So do the math to calculate the % at which they both charge up to 4000mAh. It'll be in same time or less time than Redmi Note 7. Despite charging at nearly half watts & USB port.


                          2. Redmi Note 9s doesn't beat Realme 6 Pro in benchmarks you shared. Don't nitpick in favour of Xiaomi.
                          I'll copy paste the score: https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=10147&idPhone2=10114#diff-

                          Redmi Note 9s vs Realme 6 Pro
                          AnTuTu: 254000 (v8) vs 268785 (v8) (Realme 6 Pro performs better)
                          GFXBench: 15fps vs 19fps (Realme 6 Pro gives higher FPS)
                          You can also compare multiple GameBench tests where they're tested in same conditions.

                          Redmi Note 9s only leads in GeekBench test, which only measures CPU & Memory without regard to OS load and such. AnTuTu & FPS test cover real world situations like heavy graphics - and they both show Realme 6 Pro to be notably better & pull higher FPS.


                          3. Another proof, Realme 6i vs Redmi 9: (Both have Helio G80)
                          https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=10130&idPhone2=10233#diff-


                          4. Another proof, Realme 6i vs Redmi Note 9: (6i wins despite having Helio G80, while Redmi Note 9 has Helio G85)
                          https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=10130&sSearch1=&sSearch2=Redmi+note+9&idPhone2=10192#diff-


                          Even if you find a rare instance where a Xiaomi phone has higher benchmarks, you'll see that its FPS in games is still lower than other brands in GameBench tests on YouTube.
                          I'm personally convinced Redmi Note 7 has lowest performance out of all Snapdragon 660 phones (I bought it when it was new).

                                Anonymous, 09 Nov 2020You keep saying that miui is the heaviest Android os. Do yo... moreDo you've any evidence that EMUI & ONE UI are heavier than MIUI? Because I know that at least EMUI isn't.
                                Xiaomi fans tend to spread a lot of misinformation & you're probably a victim of it.


                                1. Performance:
                                For your proof, compare Performance & Battery endurance test of any Xiaomi/Redmi phone with any phone from Realme or other OS phone with same specs (Chipset, RAM).

                                Compare performance of EMUI/Realme phone having 3GB RAM with a Xiaomi/MIUI phone having 3GB RAM with same specs/chipsets.
                                If you're a semi heavy or heavy user, you'll immediately notice MIUI performance is much lower.

                                If you don't want to buy them to test them, you can compare performance by any other reliable means like benchmarks from AnTuTu, GeekBench, GFX Bench or even GameBench that measures actual average FPS of games.
                                Xiaomi phones performance will always be lower.

                                - Example: Realme 6 vs Redmi Note 8 Pro performance tests by AnTuTu, GeekBench & GFX Bench.
                                https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?&idPhone2=9812&idPhone1=10113#diff-



                                2. Battery endurance tests (if done properly) are another good way. But most YouTubers don't know basic things about phones, like not setting a standard for tests. For example, not turning off or on things like Bluetooth, Location, Mobile Data, Playing games on speaker instead of earphones, background apps, restarting phone before testing or not etc.
                                They can make a big difference on battery in endurance tests.


                                3. Many Xiaomi phones also charge slower than their specs show.
                                For example, Redmi Note 7 with Type C, 18watt charging charges in same or more time than phones 10watt charging with USB ports like Realme 3 & Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2.
                                I assume you know how to look up the tests to prove it.

                                        Basically, Realme 6i for performance.
                                        Oppo F11 Pro for multitasking.

                                        3GB RAM on Realme 6i is enough for normal use + games like PUBG with up to 40FPS. PUBG takes around 1GB of RAM, so it won't lag unless you try to run multiple apps along with it.

                                        However, it won't be as good in running multiple apps. Maybe 3-5 apps max depending on how heavy they are.
                                        Because the system will close background apps more often to free up RAM for foreground apps, so when you switch apps, they might start from the beginning.


                                        FYI: Whether RAM is sufficient or not also depends on the OS. For example, I will never recommend getting 3GB RAM variant with a MIUI (Xiaomi OS). It's the heaviest Android OS.
                                        Realme OS and Color OS are much better for performance, however. They always beat Xiaomi phones in benchmarks with same specs.
