Not sure if Xiaomi is still working on the Pocophone F2 anymore. We all know that the Pocophone F1 gave a tough time to the flagship killer and the actual flagships though with some trade offs such as built, camera, screen, wireless charging and software. Now, don't get me wrong. The Pocophone F1 still is a great phone but we all know how badly we were waiting for the successor. But hey! We got the Redmi K20 Pro, the next heavyweight contender from Xiaomi. It's great to see that the Redmi tag has now been shared with Xiaomi's flagship devices. Both Redmi K20 Pro and the Redmi K20 were launched in India on 17 July 2019. Both these devices are great in their price segment but today we are going to talk about the big brother 'the Redmi K20 Pro'. In terms of built, the Redmi K20 Pro feels and looks premium with Corning Gorilla glass 5 in the front and back. It comes with a true bezel-less display with almost no chin at all. The Redmi K20 Pro has a

Some smartphone makers such as Xiaomi, Vivo, Realme, Asus, Samsung and Oppo are doing just the right things to woo consumers who prefer to buy mid-segment smartphones. The question is, are they any good to delight us with their design, hardware, camera and software? As MKBHD said in one of his videos that Cheaper phones are getting better and better phones are getting cheaper. We have had so many smartphones in the mid-segment this year that can give these flagships a run for their money. The Oppo K3 seems to be a great smartphone that delivers in every aspect. Let's take a look at the OppoK3. The Oppo K3 gets a 6.5" 1080x2340 AMOLED screen and is powered by the Snapdragon 710 chipset. The phone comes with 6GB/ 8GB of RAM and 128GB/ 256GB of internal storage options. It also gets support for microSD card. The phone gets an in-display fingerprint scanner that works very fast and efficiently. The Oppo K3 has a dual camera setup on the back with 16 MP prim

The much awaited Mi A3 by Xiaomi was unveiled today. The A-series is the only smartphone by Xiaomi that runs on the Android One program. The specification though disappointing hints that there could be a plus or a pro model that may show up later. For now, lets see what do we get with the Mi A3. The model announced seems more like a lite version to me. It comes with a 6.1" OLED screen with 720x1560 pixel resolution. It's powered by the Snapdragon 665 processor that doesn't seem to be huge upgrade over the Snapdragon 660. The phone comes in 4GB/ 6GB of RAM and 64GB/ 128GB of  storage options and what surprised me was the inclusion of a microSD card slot.  I am happy that few things that were expected were there in the specs sheet. Mi A3 comes with a triple camera setup on the back. It has a 48MP primary camera with f/1.75, an 8MP ultra wide-angle camera (118°) and a 2MP depth sensor. In the front the Mi A3 gets a 32MP selfie camera.  The next expected up
