Recently, someone asked about the recommendation of the 100 yuan machine from time to time and simply made a summary. This article mainly recommends and analyzes the main models of the 100 yuan machine and the 1000 yuan machine. They are not suitable. I hope they can help the users in need.
Our country's largest shipment is still the models with the price of 100 yuan to 1500 yuan (from food and clothing to well-off), which are the "silent majority" rarely publicized and reported. Although the unit price of these machines is low, the phenomenon of "water is not shallow" and "high price but low configuration" is very serious, which virtually increases the living burden of users and really reduces their living standards.
In fact, mobile phone recommendation in this price range is very simple, because there is no choice at all, either Red mi or Yellow. After all, their competitors are Nokia, ZTE, Coolpad, Dolly, Philips, Tianyu, and Pepper
There is no need to introduce Redmi Red Rice, the hero who ended the era of "Thousand Yuan Machine Stronghold". Realme, as a sub brand of OPPO in foreign countries, returned to the domestic market in 2018 with low popularity. It has been connected to OPPO's after-sales system. The system is also a green manufacturer, but its update is not as fast as its own.
Purchasing principles
First rule: For mobile phones below 1500 yuan, performance is preferred!
Buying a 100 yuan machine basically depends on the SoC model (you can also call it processor if you like) and price. Mobile phones are the most important peripheral organs of the human body, and they are used more frequently than anything else. But if WeChat and headlines are jammed, there is no way to speak well.
The commonly used SoCs for models from 499 yuan to 1599 yuan are as follows. CPU performance (which directly affects the speed of mobile phones) is ranked from weak to strong:
Snapdragon 439 (the survival line can only meet the requirements of "availability", and WeChat is a little hard), 12nm, 4 * 1.95GHz A53+4 * 1.45GHz A53, Adreno 504；
MediaTek G25 (Survival line, performance is slightly better than Snapdragon 439, but the optimization gap of superimposed platform is five to five), 12nm, 4 * 2GHz A53+4 * 1.5GHz A53, PowerVR GE8320@650MHz ；
MediaTek G80 (food and clothing line), 12nm, 2 * 2GHz A75+6 * 1.8GHz A55, Mali G52MC2@950MHz ；
MediaTek G85 (food and clothing line), the GPU overclocking version of G80, only exceeds 50MHz（ G52MC2@1GHz ）, "The water here is very deep" series;
Snapdragon 662 (food and clothing line), 11nm, 4 * 2GHz class A73+4 * 1.8GHz class A53, Adreno 610；
Tianji 720 (Xiaokang Line), 7nm, A76 of 2 × 2GHz+A55 of 6 × 2GHz, Mali-G57 MC3；
Xiaolong 750G (Xiaokang Line), 8nm, 2 * 2.2GHz class A77+6 * 1.8GHz class A55, Adreno 619；
Tianji 800U (Xiaokang Line), 7nm, A76 of 2 × 2.4GHz+A55 of 6 × 2GHz, Mali-G57MC3@950MHz . Even if MediaTek optimizes the blood deduction, the CPU can also win the Snapdragon 765G.
CPU operation performance (affecting daily fluency) ↑
GPU graphics performance (affecting game fluency) ↑
Flash memory read/write performance (affecting daily fluency) ↑
We specially brought Snapdragon 835 (the flagship in 2017) and Snapdragon 845 (the flagship in 2018) as references to feel the gap between Snapdragon 750G/765G (close to Tianji 720/Tianji 800U) and MediaTek G80.
MediaTek models below G25, 4+64 . After all, performance bottlenecks will be encountered before memory and storage bottoms out. And even if the price difference is 100 yuan, for these mobile phones, it is already 1/6 of the cost of the whole machine, and this wave will lose.
For MediaTek models above G80 (excluding G80), 6GB memory is recommended , can serve for one or two more years to avoid being forced out by giant apps such as WeChat.
599 yuan to 999 yuan
Below are the official website prices on April 18. The recommended memory version will be marked in bold.
Redmi 9A (MediaTek G25) ↑
Black/blue/green, 194g. 6.53 inch 1600X720 water drop LCD screen, 500W front+1300W rear, MediaTek G25+5000mAh battery+10W charging, with MIUI 12. By the way, it is the only one among the mobile phones that uses Micro USB interface.
Think about the Redmi 8A of the previous Type-C interface (the same 699 can't win the 9A). It seems to be "atavism", but think more deeply. Although Micro USB is not the future, users can directly use the previous charging cable.
Redmi 9 (MediaTek G80) ↑
4+64799 yuan (It is 200 more expensive than 9A, and can change performance, screen fineness, camera and fast charge)
4+128899 yuan
6+1281199 yuan
Black/Green/Blue Purple/Pink, 198g. MediaTek G80+5020mAh battery+18W fast charge (10W head is delivered from the factory), 6.53 inch 2340 x 1080 LCD water drop screen. Front 800W, rear 1300W+800W ultra wide+500W macro+200W depth of field, MIUI 12。 The Redmi models from it up all have special "bottom cushion" or infrared transmitter, so the air conditioning TV is very comfortable for emergency.
Realme Q2i (Tianji 720) ↑
Blue/Silver, 189.5g. MediaTek Tianji 720+5000mAh battery+18W fast charge. 6.5 "water drop LCD. Front 800W, 1300W main camera+depth of field/macro dual tactical sub camera.
Due to the higher performance and the future 5G mobile phones (all "Tianji" of MediaTek are 5G), the recommendation level is higher than the following Redmi Note 9 4G. The advantage of the latter is that the range and camera can be selected according to the demand. Of course, they are better than the 4+128 version of the 999 yuan Redmi 10X 4G (MediaTek G85).
Redmi Note 9 4G (Snapdragon 662) ↑
4+128 999 yuan
6+128 1099 yuan
8+128 1299 yuan
8+256 1499 yuan
"Buy a power bank and give away your mobile phone", red/blue/green/black, 198g weight. 6.53 inch 2340 x 1080 LCD water drop screen, Snapdragon 662+6000mAh battery+18W fast charge (instead of sending a 22.5W charging head). The camera has made a qualitative leap, with front 800W, 4800W main camera+800W super wide angle+200W depth of field, and even dual tilt and infrared.
1000 yuan to 1500 yuan recommended
True self Q2 (Tianji 800U) ↑
4+128 1149 yuan
6+128 1199 yuan (Ha? You are the real person, worthy of you, and the price is really mysterious)
Silver/blue, 194g weight. Tianji 800U+5000mAh battery+30W fast charge. 6.5 inch 120Hz left upper punch LCD, side fingerprint. Front 1600W, 4800W main camera+800W ultra wide angle+macro. It also defeated its own realme V15/V11/V5/V3 series.
Redmi Note 9 5G (Tianji 800U) ↑
6+128 1299 yuan
8+128 1499 yuan
6+256 1599 yuan
8+256 1699 yuan
Purple/green/gray, 199g. It is still a 6.53 inch 2340 x 1080 LCD, but it turns into a left upper punch with 5 generations of gorilla glass. Tianji 800U+5000mAh battery+18W fast charge (it is also a 22.5W charging head when leaving the factory). Front 1300W, rear 4800W+800W ultra wide+200W macro. In addition to the double lift, there is a linear motor, MIUI12。
True Q2 Pro (Tianji 800U) ↑
8+128 1499 yuan
8+256 1599 yuan (ha?)
Blue purple/white/blue/gray, 175g. 6.43 "left upper punch AMOLED+fingerprint under the screen. Tianji 800U+4300Ah dual cell+65W fast charging. 1600W front, 4800W main camera+800W ultra wide+black and white/macro tactical sub camera.
Redmi in this range is Redmi 10X 5G (Tianji 820, the real best in the middle) ↑ and Redmi Note 9 Pro (Snapdragon 750G). Because K30i/K30 4G/K30 5G are out of stock in a large area.
Redmi 10X 5G version 6+128 costs 1399 yuan. If I can buy it, I would recommend it more than the real Q2 Pro. But now the main shipment is the 8+128 version of 1699 yuan (2GB memory is 300 yuan, which is abominable).
The Redmi Note 9 Pro is a model for photography, and its selling points are 120Hz high screen and 100 million pixel camera (although it is an entry-level HM2). However, the starting price of 1599 yuan for the 6+128 version is on the high side, depending on how strong the demand for photography is.
1500 yuan to 2000 yuan recommended
If the price range goes up, there will be more choices. However, due to space limitations, we continue to recommend according to the cost performance ratio, resulting in a gap of several hundred yuan. Because here we met the flagship SoC of Tianji 1200 and Snapdragon 870.
Real GT Neo ↑
The real GT Neo is 8.4 mm thick and weighs 179g. 6.43 inch 1080P+120Hz Samsung AMOLED, 360Hz touch sampling. The first launch of Tianji 1200, 64MP IMX682 main camera+8MP ultra wide+2MP macro, 4500mAh battery+50W fast charge, double jack and headphone port.
Redmi K40↑
The real GT Neo (who has actually shot successfully) and the Redmi K40 (so the price is not marked in bold) are in the same place. Redmi K40 is 7.8mm thick and 196g heavy. 6.67 "120Hz 1080P+Samsung E4 central punching straight screen, 360Hz touch sampling. Snapdragon 870, IMX582 (48MP)+8MP Ultra Wide+5MP Long Focus Macro, 4520mAh Battery+33W Fast Charge.
