Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro review: This is the flagship to beat

What is a ‘Flagship Killer’ which brands like OnePlus and Xiaomi keep talking about? Started as a marketing gimmick by OnePlus, flagship killers are generally referred to phones that match the specifications of an expensive premium phone and cost almost of half of it. The formula has evidently worked very well for OnePlus so far. Xiaomi is now also embracing this ‘flagship killer’ gimmick with its latest Redmi K20 Pro.

With prices starting at Rs 27,999, Xiaomi’s Redmi K20 Pro aims to undercut OnePlus 7-series (starts at Rs 32,999). It’s even cheaper than Asus’ 6Z which starts at Rs 31,999. The three phones have more or less the same set of specifications which includes Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 855 processor. Compared to Xiaomi’s recent Redmi and even Poco F1, K20 Pro is a big upgrade with AMOLED display, triple rear cameras and in-screen fingerprint sensor. We’ve spent considerable time with Xiaomi’s latest Redmi K20 Pro and here’s our review.
