So I have used the Redmi K20 pro for aver 24hours now. Yea, the camera is cool, the amoled screen looks amazing, the overall performance is not bad. I am not a gaming person so in the longrun the 855sd doesn't really standout for me, I am not a picture freak, therefore the camera is just there, praying my woman doesn't see it.
For me 4 things stands out in a phone in no particular order 1:Screen size( I like them big)
2:Battery Size (I don't like always plugging my phone to charge), 3:Ram, internal Memory and smooth operations,
4: Overall built
Now in comparison wuth my Mi Max 2, the redmi K20 pro feels somehow too small holding it in my hands... I am so struggling with it the smallness
As per battery, my mi max 2 is still a monster even after 2 years.
As regards smoothness of operations, for day to day use, browse, make calls, do some transactions, read the k20 pro isn't really that far ahead of mi max 2.
Its seems xiaomi and these other companies only reserve large memories for these top tier devices.
Then for the overall built, the K20 pro is miles ahead of my mi max 2.
My personal verdict, there is nothing so special about the k20 pro, infact I already feel like selling it. As of today, the phone will be up for sale come 5th January 2020, I want to see if it would grow on me else I am selling it and waiting for any big screen device that would deliver rugged efficient service for me.
had it been it was mi9t pro with band 28 ,i would have bought it from you grin grin

I don't really understand this

Had the same issue but I resolved mine..

Just open settings - type region on the search bar - select India as your region..

Go to Themes - you'll see fonts appear on the menu.. You can select any of the Moby or Aafonts there..

Make sure your data is on Sha..

You simply bought a phone you NEVER needed. It's like buying a Ferrari and not driving it more than 50km/h speed. Max out the features and full capacity of the phone and do another review.
Sure I plan to use it a few more days to see if it would grow on me...

So the 0.14" difference in screen size is what makes the max 2 far bigger?
Why wait for big screen devices when the Mi Note 10 is 6.67" or the Max 3 is also there as well.

There is a clear difference in performance between the two devices except you are not a heavy user.
Physical appeal, the Mi Max with 6.44 inch display looks far bigger and more noticeable than the Oneplus 7 pro with 6.67 inch display, compared both yesterday side by side. Aspect ratio as you know is the trick. There's no way someone who is used to the size of the Mi Max won't find anything else awkward.

Sometimes it could be that it has arrived without you knowing it. You better check your post office or destination address.

TODAY'S TIP:

If you're experiencing data zapping on your device, kindly do this tweaking.

Settings > Sync > Mi Cloud > Disable the gallery sync.

Turning off your auto sync will disable your email sync which is not recommended for those that uses office email or have active emails.

Edited:
Also, you can check if your System apps updater is set to Auto updates, if it is, change to "Don't update" but leave the "Show update notifications" active.

2. Disable your Auto updates on Google play too. How? GooglePlay > Menu > Settings > Change "Auto Update Apps" to "Don't auto update apps" and change "Auto Play videos" to "Don't Auto Play Videos".

3) Don't forget, WhatsApp status is a data zapping feature

4) Facebook isn't left out if your video playback is active

5) this is rare though: Google Photos/drive auto sync (disable and change to manual sync). This is to those that prefers Google Photos to Mi Cloud like me grin

Why should someone possibly prefer the redmi note 7 to the newly released redmi note 8 ??

Sometimes it's money palaver. Not all pocket are the same. Just like I bought redmi 8a 2weeks back, I would have loved to buy note 8, when I saw the price my heart cut. grin
