Hello, welcome to the Dark Horse Commune
As a sub-brand of Xiaomi's main cost-effectiveness, Redmi has also released its own flagship machine, Redmi K50 E-sports Edition.
Although it is the cheapest Snapdragon 8 gen 1 mobile phone in the current Xiaomi series, looking down, for this machine, Dark Horse is somewhat incomprehensible.
As an esports version, there is no need to worry about hardware performance.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, supplemented by LPDDR5 memory + UFS 3.1 flash memory, and the heat dissipation is also piled up.
4860mm dual VC thermal solution (40% increase in thermal conductivity), super large graphene + high-power graphite + second-generation aerospace graphene design (20% higher thermal conductivity), processor covered thermal copper heat sink, thermal conductivity increased by 3.5 times.
According to the official introduction of Redmi, it can stably run "Glory of Kings" 120 frames and "Original God" 60 frames, and the full frame runs for 30 minutes and the fuselage is below 44 ° C.
There is also a heat dissipation back clip, the official data is that the temperature can be reduced by up to 5 °.
As an esports phone, the K50 esports edition also retains the previous generation of game shoulder buttons. Also paired with the X-axis linear motor with the largest Android size at present, there are also four-unit speakers, and the gaming attribute is full.
However, in terms of appearance, the K50 esports version is not as ostentatious as the average gaming phone.
Three colors are available, namely Ice Chopper, Blade, and Shadow, using AG frosted glass + metal border material, glossy matte homobomer process, with X-shaped stereoscopic cutting volume keys.
Compared with other gaming phones, it is also restrained in thickness and weight, 8.5mm thick and 210g heavy.
In terms of screen, the K50 gaming edition is equipped with a 6.67-inch OLED flexible direct screen screen supplied by Huaxing Optoelectronics, with a resolution of 2400×1080, support for 10-bit color depth display, support for P3 color gamut, support for HDR10+ high dynamic range, video super-resolution enhancement, MEMC motion compensation and other functions.
Support 1920Hz high frequency PWM dimming, at low brightness, strobe is not so serious, heap vision protection is better.
And obtained the DisplayMate A+ certified high-quality screen, achieving 15 screen records.
It seems that every mobile phone recently released has passed the DisplayMate A+ certification, and it has broken the record, can we set the standard higher in the future?
In other aspects, it is equipped with a 4700mAh battery, supports 120W fast charging, supports charging while playing, and can be fully charged in 37 minutes at the same time as the king of 120 frames.
NFC and infrared are also supported, and the xiaomi series is traditional.
In terms of taking photos, as a game, the Redmi K50 e-sports version is not so attentive.
The rear is equipped with the Sony IMX686 64 million main camera, which is more common in mobile phones for several years and is now usually used in thousand-dollar machines.
There's also an ultra-wide angle of 8 megapixels and a macro of 2 megapixels.
Can scan the code to send a circle of friends.
The front is a single shot of the center digging hole, and the pixel is 20 million.
As a game phone, Redmi K50 e-sports edition, there is no slot point in the hardware, there should be some, but this storage version and pricing, dark horse is not understood, but also shocked.
8+128GB version 3299 yuan12+128GB version 3599 yuan12+256GB version 3899 yuan
There is also a champion version, 12+256GB version 4199 yuan
128GB of storage, for ordinary mobile phones, in fact, is not very enough, and Redmi K50 e-sports version as a game phone, the demand for internal storage space is even greater, this 128GB how to see is not enough.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with launching a 128GB version to reduce the price, but what does the 12+128GB version mean? To buy the 256GB version, you have to spend 3899 yuan.
Is the game phone worth buying?
The game phone is indeed stronger than the conventional flagship phone in terms of heat dissipation and game experience, but while taking the "performance", it also abandons a lot.
For example, taking pictures, feel, weight, in these places where public perception is most obvious, the experience is not as strong as the general flagship machine.
If you are not a heavy game user, you do not necessarily have to buy a game phone, the general mobile phone can also meet the needs of the game, but not as extreme as the game phone in the game experience.
After all, game phones are destined to be niche demand, if you are a mass user, why step into a niche group to pay for a game experience?
