Editorial report
Xiaomi Redmi K50 Gaming 8 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet
The Xiaomi Redmi K50 Gaming suits people looking for a gaming phone with powerful hardware; its main trade-off is a 210 g body, heavier than most phones of its time. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 puts its hardware among the most powerful of that period, while 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage exceed what most phones launched around then offer.
Its 6.67-inch OLED display has a 120 Hz refresh rate, typical for its time, and occupies 86.2% of the front, more than on most phones of the period. Connectivity also rates better than most: it includes Wi-Fi 6E and 5G. The camera stands better than most phones of its time for resolution, with a 64 MP sensor, and the phone also has an 8 MP ultra-wide camera. Its f/1.9 aperture, however, is worse than most.
The 4,700 mAh battery capacity is typical for its time, while 120 W wired charging is among the fastest. It has no wireless charging. The body is 8.5 mm thick. With an overall NeoScore of 6.8, the Redmi K50 Gaming is a strong fit for buyers who prioritize hardware, a high-refresh-rate display and fast charging, and can accept a heavier phone and a less favorable camera aperture.
