If you want to talk about the hottest mobile phone recently, it must be the Redmi K50, and may even have been fired over its big brother Redmi K50 Pro. As a new product of Tianji 8100, this mobile phone has high hopes, and will even be said to be the successor of Snapdragon 870. After all, users do not necessarily want the ultimate performance, but want a better comprehensive experience in terms of performance, battery life and other aspects, from this point of view, The Redmi K50 is more worth looking forward to. But if you were to exchange it for the flagship in your hand, would you be willing to say yes?
Speaking of which, I have to say another phone, which is the Xiaomi Mix4. This flagship model that was launched last year has been controversial since its launch, and Xiaomi has done all aspects of its design for it, and the stacking material is very fierce. For example, the ceramic body, 100 million pixel main camera, 120W high-specification fast charging, a high-specification screen, and a rare off-screen camera. However, it is clear that last year, many brands were not prepared for the hot preparation of Snapdragon 888, and this phone has also been affected, plus the front camera of the mobile phone is still very important, and the off-screen solution is doomed to the front camera picture quality is not up to the flagship level.
It can be said that Xiaomi MIX4 is a flagship phone with technology but failed to make the experience the best, many flagship phones last year were like this, although the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 is hotter this year, but the mobile phone manufacturers also have the confidence to deal with it. And for the small partner who bought the Xiaomi MIX4, if there is an opportunity to trade in the old, you only need to add 1 yuan to replace the Xiaomi MIX4 with the Redmi K50 high-end version, are you willing? Now there is really such a situation on the Internet, and the result of Xiaomi's official trade-in is like this.
So how did the parties choose? Although it is not yet known, from the perspective of those who responded, some people still chose to replace it this way. But such a replacement value is not worth it, and it is really a bit difficult to say. The price of the official recycled Xiaomi MIX4 is about 2500 yuan, and the official also gave a subsidy of 298 yuan. In the seafood market, the high-end version of the Xiaomi MIX4 is priced at about 3,000 yuan. But it's hard to say how long it will take to sell it if you sell it yourself. On the whole, if you want to worry about it, the way of 2500 yuan + 298 yuan sold to the official to replace the old with the new should not be considered a loss.
From the price level, what about the configuration and use experience? First of all, if the Xiaomi MIX4 is replaced by the Redmi K50, the performance is comparable, and the performance of AnTutu is more than 800,000 points. But what is the selling point of Tianji 8100? When it comes to long-running performance, the Redmi K50 should be better. After such a replacement, the rear camera downgraded the front camera upgrade, there is more than one opening on the screen but also becomes a 2K straight screen, the fast charge is downgraded but the capacity is upgraded, the ceramic body becomes glass, and the comprehensive consideration is this a loss or a profit?
It can only be said that if we want to talk about the comprehensive use experience, such a parallel replacement will certainly not lose. However, Xiaomi MIX4, as the top flagship, is definitely stronger than the Redmi K50 in some details, such as grip, curvature, appearance, etc., which are not easy to measure by price, and it is not easy to say whether to classify these gaps into the use experience. So if it were you, would you be willing to trade in for a new one to get the Redmi K50?
