Compared with previous years, the mobile phone industry is more seriously involved. In just a few months, the flagship Redmi K40, which claims to be a bit fierce, was besieged by multiple opponents. For example, the Motorola Edge s Pro, and the Realme GT Neo2. These phones are not only higher than The Redmi, but also more affordable.
After several rounds of price cuts, the price of realme GT Neo2 has dropped to more than 2,000 yuan, which is more cost-effective than the Redmi K40. Of course, in terms of price, The Redmi K40 still has certain advantages. However, from the perspective of comprehensive configuration and actual experience, the realme GT Neo2 after the price reduction is more worth starting.
Price aside, let's take a look at the advantages of the realme GT Neo2 hardware configuration. Objectively speaking, the two phones have many similarities in terms of configuration, for example, equipped with a Snapdragon 870 processor, using a Samsung E4 material screen, and supporting a 120Hz refresh rate. However, there are also big differences in the hardware configuration of the two mobile phones.
The difference between battery capacity and fast charging
As we all know, 5G mobile phones consume more power, and larger capacity batteries can improve the battery life of mobile phones. Moreover, when users buy mobile phones, they also pay more attention to endurance. To this end, the realme GT Neo2 has a built-in 5000mAh large-capacity battery that supports 65W fast charging.
It is undeniable that 65W fast charging is not the fastest, after all, the thousand yuan machine has used 120W fast charging. However, the combination of 65W fast charging and 5000mAh large battery is the combination with the strongest endurance, after all, large-capacity batteries are more important.
Let's take a look at the Redmi K40 mobile phone, which has a built-in 4520mAh battery, supports 33W fast charging, and the battery capacity and fast charging are not dominant. Although the battery capacity is only less than 500mAh, the actual endurance is about 5 hours.
Gaps in imaging systems
Taking pictures is a high-frequency application and a feature that consumers value very much. It is reported that the realme GT Neo2 is a rear-facing triple camera system, consisting of a 64-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2-megapixel macro lens. The front camera is 16MP.
Although the Redmi K40 is also a rear triple camera, the hardware configuration specifications are lower, consisting of a 48MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide angle lens and a 5MP macro lens. The front camera is 20 megapixels. Objectively speaking, there is a gap between the two mobile phone imaging systems, but the difference in practical applications is not too obvious.
In addition to the gap between battery capacity, fast charging and imaging systems, there are also certain gaps in other configurations. For example, the Redmi K40 uses a side fingerprint to unlock, while the realme GT Neo2 is an off-screen fingerprint recognition system. Both phones come standard with stereo dual speakers and a versatile NFC, while the Redmi K40 also has an IR remote control.
In terms of the weight and thickness of the phone, the gap between the two phones is also less obvious and can be ignored. Overall, the realme GT Neo2 hardware configuration is higher, but the price is also 200 yuan higher. However, the two configurations of 65W fast charging and 5000mAh battery are very practical, and the expensive 200 yuan is also worth the money.
