SAR value is very outdated i believe most of today phone have lower sar value

          How quickly they copy! In the instance google pixel!

Even Xiaomi themselve have Redmi note 12.

              A13 cost over €200 in your region?

                Still wonder why Xiaomi flood the market with a lot of the same phone with different name?🙄

                  if you want a gaming machine for cheap , you're more than welcome to buy xiaomi phone. it's great for gaming . but not very transparent after sale service. sometime they do not even give you bill for servicing.

                    Hemedans, 19 Nov 2022No Mediatek has no competitive soc at low end, G99 is weak ... morenothing weak for €180 device.. A13 was about €190 which are still eMMC and exynos 850.

                    Exynos 1330 better means it's not sub €200.

                      rizki1, 19 Nov 2022Much better than budget Oppo or Samsung. A04s are the same ... moreNo Mediatek has no competitive soc at low end, G99 is weak and Even new Exynos 1330 is better soc.

                      This phone wont compete with A04s it will compete with A13 and other sd 4 gen 1 devices which are much better. Just pray Xiaomi anounce something like redmi 11/11C with sd 4 gen 1

If you want value it's nearly always better to get a better higher specced older model which you can often pick up on sale at a similar price to these poor new budget phones

                          Much better than budget Oppo or Samsung. A04s are the same price but AnTuTu is still 140K, no charger and case.

                                    SoC with A76 core
                                    Gorilla 3
                                    IP00
                                    Probably domestic screen

                                    🤮

                                      The official pricing on Amazon for this device is 190Euro.
                                      Thats a lot of money for a low end smartphone with 4/64 storage. And the specs are also the same as in most devices under 200

                                      -90hz ips screen with low max brightness outdoors
                                      -5000mah battery
                                      -slow charging.
                                      -4G Helio G99 similar to Dimensity 700 from other 5G devices
                                      -Android 12 and not 13
                                      -4gb ram/64gb rom storage
                                      -teardrom front screen

                                      Basically they keep releasing the same phones with different names.
