This phone would've been almost perfect if it had a 13MP ultrawide camera that doubles as a macro.

they could have put a telephoto lens in this phone instead of the cheap ultrawide and macro lens. i hate all these cheap phone with big multi-camera bumps. because they are all actually crappy single-camera phones pretending being premium.

Why are you repeating my words? That is exactly what I said. I only used this phone as an example to show the flaw in your logic, which you are incapable of seeing.
> "it is 2022. and I did mentioned in clearly in previous post as well. again, which flagship phone release in 2022 carry a price tag of $500?"
It really doesn't matter whether it's released this year or last year. The release date of a phone does NOT disprove the existence of budget flagships. In fact, your argument is very flawed because 2022 isn't over yet. You do realize there is still half an year left for these budget flagships to release, right? Therefore, it would be more reasonable to talk about 2021 phones. Try making a better argument next time, I will be happy to answer when it actually makes sense.
> I guess we may stop the conversation here. any1 can bring in 1001 new dimensions for the purpose of "winning" an "conversation".
It's up to you if you want to stop this conversation. I don't really care about "winning" and never viewed it as such. But it is obvious that you are too single-minded to accept the term 'budget flagship', and so you resort to pointless debates about tiny details that does little to negate this term.
If you haven't noticed, I already proved my point. I don't care when the phone was released. The fact remains that if the chipset and display are flagship-grade, and if the starting price is much cheaper than most flagships, then it makes sense to call it a budget flagship. This phone you are commenting on right now IS a budget flagship from 2022. I don't need any more proof than that. Whether you agree or disagree is not my concern, but if you have a hard time seeing that, then maybe that's a "you" problem.

NeonHD, 10 May 2022> "redmi k50 pro only lack of camera feature by you... more1. balmuda is a premium phone, not a flagship phone. its own website has defined it. I not sure where u get an idea that is an flagship phone in 2021. and I'm certain none of my statement would put this piece of phone in a flagship view.
2. it is 2022. and I did mentioned in clearly in previous post as well. again, which flagship phone release in 2022 carry a price tag of $500?
seriously? op9 from 2021 at 400~500 from a 3rd pt retailer as a benchmark to official flagship release in 2022?
I guess we may stop the conversation here. any1 can bring in 1001 new dimensions for the purpose of "winning" an "conversation".
btw, enjoy your day with more and more "budget flagship" in the market in 2022~

No.
One of the characteristics of a flagship is a good camera system, but it's not contingent upon it.
The main defining characteristic is the chipset, but it is also dependent on lots of other things. It is already obvious that Dimensity 9000 makes it flagship-worthy, but it is not a true flagship unless there are other flagship-worthy traits. The second indicator is the display. It has a QHD+ resolution with GG Victus protection and 1200 nit brightness, which makes it stand out as a flagship. I would have mentioned OLED and 120hz too, but they are becoming more common on mid-range phones now.
But of course, the lack of USB 3.1 and under display FP scanner, as well as plastic frame, contradicts flagship-grade specs, which brings me to my concept of a budget flagship. In other words, a flagship with tradeoffs in other less important areas. It is also equivalent to the old "flagship killer" concept that we used to hear before. This is not my own argument, but simply my understanding of what most people think about this phone. And it makes sense, does it not?

How ironic of you to say that, considering this is merely your personal standard of understanding as well. By your logic, that means the $916 Balmuda Phone with the SD765 chipset would be considered a flagship. Well, it's not. It's a premium phone, but it's not a flagship. A flagship is defined by the specs, NOT by the price segment. I think you should take a moment to realize that.
> "it is also clearly written and reported in the Xiaomi company annual report that Redmi and Poco is intended as a budget phone and priced as a budget phone."
You are correct, but you forgot to take in consideration that the K-series of the Redmi brand is supposed to offer a flagship-grade chipset, while the Note series of the Redmi brand is the definition of mid-range specs.
Xiaomi's words are certainly contradictory back in 2019 when its Mi 9 "flagship" didn't necessarily beat its budget counterpart, the Redmi K20 Pro.
> "which flagship model out there is carrying a price tag of CNY2999 ($450)? name 1 plz."
OnePlus 9. Currently on sale for $440 on Aliexpress. You're welcome.

They only skimped out on the cameras to reduce the price, hence "budget flagship".
