The Redmi K20 Pro has been released for some time, and the author has also used it as the main machine for some time. After experiencing it, the feeling is that this is a flagship machine with "exquisite knife skills", because in many basic experiences, the K20 Pro has done very well. The standard of the flagship machine, especially the screen without "masking", looks really happy, But the K20 Pro also cut a few knives in some places ingeniously. Will that affect? Let's evaluate a wave in detail.
appearance
I was surprised to see the appearance of K20 Pro for the first time, because it finally has the appearance of a flagship. What's more surprising is that in fact, I found that the texture and feel are very good, the glass and the frame connect naturally, and the design of the back can be said to be very "publicity". We got the flame red in the hand, the middle is black, and the two sides are refracted by the light, It will show the light effect of fire, which is interesting.
There are also two other versions of glacier blue and carbon fiber black. The glacier blue design has the same effect as flame red, but the color has changed to blue. Carbon fiber black is the texture of carbon fiber under the glass.
The camera is designed in the middle. It has to be said that the design in the middle will indeed be more coordinated. It also has the design of "angel eyes", which is more like the symbol of the flagship. The K20 Pro body is 8.8 mm thick, so the camera bulge is not so serious.
The volume key and power key are on the right side of the body, and there is no independent AI key.
On the top of the fuselage, from left to right, there is an elevating front camera. There is also a breathing lamp, an "advanced" 3.5mm headphone hole, and a microphone on the top of the camera.
Bottom, from left to right, SIM card slot, Type-C charging interface, microphone, single speaker.
The front is a 6.36-inch Samsung AMOLED full screen with a resolution of 2340 x 1080, no bangs, no water drops, a whole screen, Corning's fifth generation gorilla glass, and the frame control is good, the visual effect is really cool.
The K20 Pro has a good hand feel. It weighs 191g. Among the elevating mobile phones I have used, it is relatively light. There is no problem with simple single hand operation. In addition, the quality of the protective case attached to the packaging box is also very good. Nowadays, there are few mobile phones that can send mobile phone cases of such good quality, and they will not be very thick, The surface is made of skin like material. If you don't choose, you don't need to buy the protective shell.
screen
The K20 Pro screen driver is EA8076, and the Xiaomi 9 is the same model. The actual parameters are also very close to the Xiaomi 9, and the appearance is also very close; The performance of each parameter is at normal level, and the color accuracy in standard mode is relatively good; The maximum brightness is 427 nit manually and 593 nit automatically. Of course, the current "online red function" DC dimming is also necessary.
performance
Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 SoC, 6GB/8GB running memory optional, 64GB/126GB/256GB body storage optional, memory and flash memory use LPDDR4x dual channel 2133Mhz memory and UFS2.1 dual channel flash memory respectively. The flash memory model is Samsung's KLUEG8U1EA-B0C1. There is nothing to say about the performance of Android's flagship mobile phone now. The all-in-one Snapdragon 855 has the same performance, Let's take a brief look at the running score chart.

photograph
K20 Pro rear three shots, from top to bottom:
Long focus: OV8856800W pixel, 1/4 "sensor size, 1.12 μ M unit pixel size, aperture f 2.4, 2x optical zoom.
Main camera: IMX5861200W/4800W pixels, 1/2 "sensor size, aperture f1.75, 1.6/0.8 μ M unit pixel size.
Ultra wide angle: S5K3L61300W pixel, 1/3 "sensor size, aperture f 2.4, 1.12 μ M unit pixel size.
This set of configuration is the same model of Xiaomi 9 SE. Let's take a look at the live shot samples. This time, we found the "Friendly" Xiaomi 9.
Let's see the daytime sample first
*Note: All AI options are turned off.
In the first group of samples, the first impression of K20 Pro is clearer and more three-dimensional than that of Xiaomi 9. There is a sharp illusion. In fact, the real scene is more consistent with that of Xiaomi 9, but the appearance of K20 Pro is better, the color saturation is also more bright, and the brightness is generally high, which belongs to a pleasing style of training. Xiaomi 9 is more tolerant and has more space in the later stage.
Zoom in and contrast. The K20 Pro looks clearer, but its analytical power is not bad. Xiaomi 9 can also achieve similar effects later.
In the second group of samples, the white balance of K20 Pro hovers on the edge of the rollover, and the overall picture is white. In contrast, Xiaomi 9 will perform more stably.
Let's take a look at other samples.
long-focus
The performance of the two mobile phones on the telephoto end is similar, and there is no obvious difference.
wide-angle
Then look at the performance of the night scene.
The first impression is that the image brightness of Xiaomi 9 is slightly higher than that of K20 Pro, which looks brighter, but the highlight suppression is not as good as K20 Pro, and the glare control is also better.
After the two mobile phones started the night view mode, the picture brightness and dynamic range were improved, and the appearance was also better. However, the picture brightness was still brighter than that of Xiaomi 9, but the performance of many scenes was basically the same, there was no big difference.
I wanted to use a mobile phone with optical anti shake to make a comparison, but I thought it was a little different, so I didn't compare it. But if you are interested, you can read these two articles One Plus Seven Detailed Evaluation and Meizu 16s Detailed Evaluation In the photo part, Xiaomi 9 compares Meizu 16s and One Plus 7 compares K20 Pro, that is, the IMX 586 with optical anti shake and the IMX586 without optical anti shake.
Other experiences
system
The system is still a familiar MIUI. After turning off advertising and some unnecessary push, it is still a very useful system. All practical functions of grounding are ready, and the system is also very smooth to use. It is also very handy for daily use; In the latest firmware, there is also the "day changing" function on Xiaomi CC9; In general, the MIUI experience is still the first level in the Android camp.
Lifting front camera
The lifting front camera used by K20 Pro this time will have a light effect when the camera is lifting. This function has also been seen on vivo X27 and X27 Pro, but the color of the light effect cannot be customized like vivo. The light effect of our flame red K20 Pro is red, and the light effect of glacier blue is blue. There are six kinds of lifting sound effects available. There is a breathing light on the top of the camera, It lights up when messages arrive and when charging, and is upgraded to the latest firmware. It also supports face recognition and also has fall protection. When the mobile phone is detected to be in free fall motion, the front camera will retract, which is basically similar to the experience of lift camera mobile phones on the market today.
Full function NFC
The K20 Pro is also equipped with full-featured NFC, which can be used to swipe buses, add bank cards, simulate access cards, etc. Now there is no traffic card available in Shenzhen in Guangdong (only K20 Pro). I don't know what Xiaomi's operation is. Although you can use QR codes to take buses and subways in Shenzhen, it's a pity that you can't enjoy the NFC, Now the Beijing Tianjin Hebei Interconnection Card has been opened for free. There are still many cities that support it. If you need one, you can open one.
shock
The vibration motor of the K20 Pro is really not the "flagship". It uses a rotor motor. The vibration is very loose, and the experience is average. There is a clear gap between it and the Xiaomi 9, let alone the comparison with the X-axis linear motor. But it is still the same sentence. If you usually turn off the vibration, it can be ignored.
Network band
As for the network frequency band, compared with Xiaomi9, LTE FDD is missing: B2/B4/B12/B17. These four bands are mainly used in North America, so their use in China has little impact. However, if it is a party studying abroad or a party studying abroad, it should be noted that K20 Pro does not have 4 × 4 MIMO.
Charging&endurance
The K20 Pro is equipped with a 4000mAh battery Love to play computer games The two-hour professional endurance test shows that the remaining battery is 86%, which is a good endurance performance. In terms of charging, the same charge pump fast charging scheme of Xiaomi9 is used, but the standard 18W charging head is installed in the packaging box, so if you want to buy it, you are strongly recommended to add 20 yuan to the 27W fast charging package. After our measurement, the original 27W charging head of Xiaomi9 is used for charging, The half hour charge is 57%, the one hour charge is 93%, and the full charge takes one hour and 17 minutes. In addition, the K20 Pro charge pump can also be activated by using the charging head that supports the PPS protocol.
summary
The Redmi K20 Pro has four specifications to choose from: 6GB+64GB ￥ 2499, 6GB+128GB ￥ 2599, 8GB+128GB ￥ 2799, 8GB+256GB ￥ 2999. Now it is purchased on the Xiaomi official website, and the Redmi AirDots wireless Bluetooth headset is also available. The price performance ratio is very high. As the first flagship mobile phone of Redmi, the K20 Pro has the appearance of a flagship phone. Of course, K20 Pro has been abandoned in some places where consumers do not care much and in most cases does not affect the use experience, but the impact is not very great, and the overall use experience is still good. The above is the detailed evaluation of K20 Pro. If you have any questions about K20 Pro, please leave a message in the comment area.
