And I just told u the mi 9 SE has a better design, even genius posted a screenshot confirming that
Like I said design is subjective. But if we look at the design of the Mi 9/Mi 9 SE, it is not so much different from the Mi 8 family. We are going to see a better radical design from the Mi 10.

The K20 family/Mi 9T has a more original design (even though they incorporated a little of the Pocophone camera placement design) and a lot of tech reviewers have praised it for that.

All these I stated are personal. I won't judge you if you feel even the Redmi Note 5 has a better design, it is your choice.

Thank u, so people choose the S10+ over the S10 because of the battery? I know you're joking right. Otherwise why don't they choose the M30 with a better battery.
A phone that lasts u a day on a single charge isn't cool enough for u? Even then y'all still carry power bank around.

Talking about flagships, I can see u conveniently left out iPhone. Remind me their battery capacity.
You can also add the latest Tecno phantom with 3400 may for good measure

Talking about fla
And are people not complaining of the flattering iPhone battery life?

Huawei even mocked them by sharing powerbanks for people on the queue to purchase iPhones last year.

But it seems you like avoiding arguments when all odds are against you, so I leave you to your degree of understanding.

Let's start with processor, no doubts, everyone knows which device wins here but then, this is sd730 Vs Sd 712, the difference ain't noticeable in everyday use . Nobody can tell the difference by handling both devices you need to check the specs before you can tell .

Even then, this is still comparing the same 7** series chipset, it's not like comparing 7** and 8**.

Let's face it, there is nothing you throw at the730 that the 712 cannot also take. I challenge you to name one task the k20 will handle better than the mi 9 SE.

People talk about gaming, the truth is hardcore gamers will always go for SD 855 nothing less will do. It's just like laptops, hardcore gamers go for Gaming laptops while the everyday user go for something less.

In truth, is" Actually anything 675 or above is fast nowadays, the chips has gotten so good these days even tht mid-range ones are not being fully utilized to they do potential in most tasks. The major difference has always been the GPU but I have yet to found a game that the 675 doesn't play well at decent graphic settings" https://amp.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/c06gfg/sd730_vs_sd855/

In summary I'll borrow a quote from one of the k20 fans here:
You skipped comparing the Snapdragon 712 Vs 730 and running to it's 2 steps ahead senior brother SD 855 to find solace, which is the basis of our argument.

And you mentioned the SD 675. Common the SD 712 is just in your words "marginally" better than it but that won't make me recommend the RN7pro over the Mi 9 SE.

Design

This is a no brainer, the design of the SE is far better than the K20, thank God genius has posted a link that settles that, besides the k20 looks so ugly at least from the back while the SE looks so premium both front and back.
Where is the comparison with the K20 in the attachment you posted?

Design is subjective. What I like might not be what another likes. There are people who don't like any form of notch, there are those who prefer the iPhone X kinda notch to all this other iteration of notches.

This your argument is null and void.

The second point is:

Battery

Here, we also know who wins, 3070ah Vs 4000mah. But in the smart phone world, this doesn't tell the whole story. Phones, particularly chipset, always have their way of optimizing power, the SE has a much smaller screen and can optimise it's battery. The battery on this full lasts a full day on a single charge, tell me is that not good enough? And it's not as if the 4000mah lasts for 2days.

Again, premium brand like Apple and Samsung have Less than 4000mah on their flagship and nobody is complaining though those phones do more processes than the k20.

Samsung M30 has a 5000mah battery,are you going to choose it above the S10 with 3400 man?

Even Xiaomi mi 9 has 3300mah, are u going to choose the k20 over it?

Of course, I understand the consideration in the above scenarios are much more than battery, but at least that still proves a point that a better battery does not tell the whole story.

The funny thing is, no matter the capacity of ur battery, people still carry power banks around.
You are running around in circles.

The Redmi K20/Mi 9T Vs Mi 9SE stick to it.

Since you want to deviate let me educate you.

Battery life of any phone is dependent on factors which include Battery size, battery optimization, battery efficient processor and sometimes the UI it runs on.

Back to the Mi 9 SE Vs Mi 9T/K20

Do you think if the both phones have the same battery the Mi 9SE will out last the K20 despite its smaller display? Not really.

Why? The SD 730 is more power efficient than the SD 712 thanks to the 8nm process the formal employs.


If battery don't matter, why did people prefer the S10+ to the regular S10?
And if you don't know the S10 + is the flagship from the S10 line up.

You are basing battery size on S10, is S10 the only flagship you look up to or is it the golden boy of all flagships? No. Let me run down a list of flagship devices of 2019 and see if your analysis is not wrong.

Huawei P30 pro - 4200mah
Asus ZenFone 6Z - 5000mah
Lenovo Z6 pro - 4000mah
OnePlus 7 pro - 4000mah
Sony Xperia 1 -3300mah
Xiaomi Mi 9 - 3300mah
Samsung S10 + - 4100mah
Honor 20 Pro -4000mah
Redmi K20 Pro - 4000mah.

Can you now see that the trend is changing.

Don't be bias and blind in arguments

U think I'm just seeing that site, something I've been using for long.
If you knew, why are you disputing the results of the compare tool I posted above. Is that not double standards?

I will really need help on how to use that gcam on my rn7
Just download the GCam and use, if you want to play around with the settings, it should be personal. You can join Lavender groups on telegram too. But depending on the MOD Gcams from BSG don't really need extra settings to use them.

Bros, I'm talking about the k20 pro, I want to compare the mi 9 SE to the more superior k20 pro to see how it holds, then we'll move to our debate proper.

It's even interesting that you cannot even readily see the difference between the k20 and k20 pro from the specs I posted. That says something.

Besides, what you posted up there are just recommended retail price from the manufacturer, in reality the prices were different
Even if we speak of the K20 pro at the time of release the price difference was still not up to $100

Who uses retailers prices to judge prices when comparing price points at the time of release?

Having the same camera sensors like you said for the K20PRO and Mi 9SE doesn't equate similar photo outputs.

There u have it. Apart from 'only' the chipset and the battery ( we'll come to that shortly) what is the difference between both devices. I mean in other key areas like display, OS, connection, NFC, Security, sensors, camera and even design? Yet the k20 pro costs more than 100usd more.

Mr genius tried the other time to prove that the camera in the k20 pro is superior, but this is a lie, the camera specs are the same,
. The SE uses the same main camera as the mi 9
Hahahaha.

$100 more expensive? Which universe are you from? GSMARENA pricing are not accurate but estimated. My prices are based on what was stated at launch, what is your pricing based on?

The Mi 9 SE was released in February, the K20 was released in May and at the time of their respective releases the both base configurations cost the same. Now judging based on components which is more expensive?

Put into consideration what is present and absent in each of the devices.

Edit: I'm not sure it's their policy, the girl was prolly on a bad mood that day. I was there some days prior to when i got the money to purchase the phones, i requested that they should open one for me so i could check the heft and all, they did. I can't phantom what went wrong that day. She just wasn't ready to show me the phone as i wear corper khaki.



True though but i was ready to buy that day and i did buy, but, from another store that was willing to show me the phone before i make payment
It is, I bought a phone from their Abuja branch two weeks ago, a RN7 infact. I paid before they unsealed the phone and switched it on for me to test.

That attitude of them made me not to buy from then, i wanted to buy three redmi note 7, i was with my atm for payment, sales girl said she can't open the phone for me without first making a payment. I jejely waka go where dem open before i buy am for that same delta mall. Iranu.
It's their policy though. You can only test if there is a sample switched on. Experiences tune sellers decision. I was in a phone store and someone bargained for a phone and agreed on a price. After breaking the seal and opening the box, the person said he is no longer buying. If you were the seller will you break a seal next time before payment?
