Editorial report

Xiaomi Redmi K30 8 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Xiaomi Redmi K30 suits buyers who want a fluid display and can live with a heavy phone: at 208 g, it weighs more than most phones of its time. Its 6.67-inch IPS LCD display runs at 120 Hz, better than most of its contemporaries, while 395 ppi is above average. Resolution is 1080 × 2400 px, with Gorilla Glass 5 and HDR10.

The rear main camera pairs 64 MP with a 1/1.7-inch sensor, among the largest of its time; the camera overall is above average. Its f/1.9 aperture, however, is less bright than that of most phones of its time. The 4500 mAh battery and 27 W charging both outpace most contemporaries. Performance is also above average, with 272,229 points in AnTuTu v8. Connectivity is better than most, with NFC, USB-C, dual SIM and Wi-Fi 5.

This configuration has 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, expandable by card; the Redmi K30 is also sold in configurations up to 8 GB / 256 GB. Android 10 and the lack of Google Services are worth noting, particularly for this China-market configuration. Overall, it stands above average and earns a NeoScore of 5.2. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize the display, battery and expandable storage over a lighter build.
