Configuration parameters and time to market of k30pro (Redmi K30 Pro evaluation details)

After all, Redmi has only been independent for more than a year. Although the time is not long, they have not been idle all the time. Entry-level and mid-range models are the foundation, just need to constantly update the contract. How to gain a foothold in the flagship mobile phone market is the independence of Redmi # 039.

Judging from the timeline of the release of the new machine, Redmi pushes the new rhythm very fast. On the one hand, it is cost-effective competition; On the other hand, there is Xiaomi's resource support, supply and research and development; Have enough advantages.

Time to market: On March 24th, 2020, Redmi officially launched the K30 Pro series, including the standard version and the zoom version. The main difference between the two is the camera and memory. As can be seen directly from the naming, the zoom version supports higher zoom.

Other parameters are basically the same, and they are all flagship mainstream configurations such as Snapdragon 865, LPDDR5, UFS 3. 1 flash memory.

Redmi K30 Pro offers sky blue, moon Mubai, ring purple and space gray. This one in our hand is a star ring purple, zoom version.

Redmi K30 Pro packaging

The packaging of mobile phone is a simple parameter.

Front of mobile phone

Redmi K30 Pro is a continuation of K20 lifting front camera, and it is a rare lifting full-screen Snapdragon 865 model on the market.

In terms of parameters, K30 Pro comes standard with Samsung AMOLED screen, made of Samsung E3 material, with ultra-high contrast of 5 million: 1, maximum brightness of 800nit and peak brightness of 1200nit. Passed Rhine HDR 10 certification and global eye protection certification. The built-in light sensors are upgraded to two, which are located at the front and rear of the fuselage. Officials say it can detect ambient light more accurately.

Perhaps the biggest controversy of this machine is that the screen does not support high refresh rate. In fact, it doesn't mean that Redmi K30 Pro must use a high refresh rate screen, but that this is what users expect of it. Coupled with the high refresh rate publicity on the K30 series, it is inevitable that people think that the K30 Pro must use a high refresh rate screen, but it is counterproductive.

Of course, you don't have to knock this phone to death just because the refresh rate is high. After all, the price is there, but in the final analysis, it is a pity that the K30 Pro does not adopt a high refresh rate.

Back of mobile phone

Different from the common Pro versions at present, the same series of K30 Pro and K30 have great changes in appearance. If you put this phone and K30 together, you can directly see that they are two different phones.

This one in our hand is star ring purple color matching, double-sided GG5 glass, round four-camera center layout on the back, and symmetrical design. The official said that it was inspired by quot star system quot, and the back cover adopted AG technology. Compared with ordinary glass, it has a matte texture visually and feels smooth without losing the smoothness of glass.

The fourth round, the back shot, the front shot.

On the right side of the fuselage are the power button and the volume button.

At the top of the fuselage is the lifting port, noise reduction microphone, infrared and 3.5mm headphone jack.

At the bottom of the fuselage is a SIM card slot, a UBS Type-C interface and a speaker.

Second, the system and characteristics

Redmi K30 Pro runs MIUI 1 1 based on Android 10. Our current version is 1 1.0.6. Needless to say, the advantages of MIUI are among the top three domestic ROM users. However, efforts are still needed to cut advertisements and reduce advertisements.

1. Display and font

MIUI 1 1 has a brand-new animation, and the built-in Xiaomi Lanting Pro font is also commendable, because the size and thickness can be set to realize unlimited adjustment, which is in line with the habits of every user.

2. Interesting screen style and lifting camera

The screen style is no different from other mobile phones. It is necessary to talk about the lighting effect of lifting camera. Compared with K20 Pro's single lighting effect, K30 Pro has added five colors this time, adding some fancy things to the ritual feeling of lifting the camera, and supporting fall protection.

3. Screen time management

If the most integrated UI in China is MIUI 1 1 after all, quot everything is based on MIUI quot, and it has all the functions you can think of. Even if you don't, you can ask for subsequent participation, except for advertisements.

In addition, talk about K30 Pro # 039 Super Bluetooth. Officials claim that it can effectively expand the range of Bluetooth signal and keep the connection intact at 400 meters. Take the author's Bluetooth headset as an example, it does reach a long distance after connection and use. However, if it is received by a partition wall, especially if there are many walls in the corridor, there will still be disconnection. Actually, this is a normal phenomenon. After all, there is no qualitative breakthrough in the ability of wireless signals to penetrate walls.

Third, the camera takes pictures.

On the camera side, the zoom version of Redmi K30 Pro is equipped with AI four shots, with parameters of 64 megapixel Sony IMX 586,13 megapixel super wide-angle lens, 8 megapixel zoom lens and 2 megapixel depth-of-field lens. It supports 3x optical zoom, 3x digital zoom and SAT technology.

It is also worth mentioning that the machine also supports 8K video recording, recording ultra-clear video with a resolution of 76804320, and supporting video compression. In the case of maintaining high image quality, the video volume is compressed by 50%, and the recorded video supports screenshots.

As can be seen from the daytime proofs, K30Pro 64 million main camera is optimized by AI algorithm, and the imaging will have corresponding color tailing, but it is not strong and more pleasing to the eye. After turning on the super wide-angle mode, the wide-angle lens has no barrel distortion, but there are still slight machining marks on the edge.

In zoom, dual OIS optical image stabilization has been fully utilized. After turning on 30x digital zoom, the subject can be photographed stably.

Step 2 proofread at night

At present, Redmi K30 Pro, like most mobile phone night scene algorithms, mainly aims at improving the brightness of the picture at night and suppressing the highlights of the picture at the same time. You can clearly see that after opening the super night scene, you can see more picture details.

Four. fulfil

Redmi K30 Pro is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC, and the zoom version is equipped with LPDDR 5 memory and UFS 3. 1 flash memory, which can provide sequential writing speed of 750MB/s, which is officially called "the strongest performance combination" in the 5G era.

In addition to the flagship configuration, the machine is also equipped with 3435mm large-area VC liquid cooling, covering SoC, power management chips, 5G chips and other areas that are prone to heat. At the same time, 7 layers of graphite structure are built in, covering the battery compartment, motherboard area and sound cavity. This design makes the motherboard form a top-down "sandwich" structure. The government has realized an all-round cooling system.

On the network side, Redmi K30 Pro supports NSA/SA 5G dual-mode networking and the current 5G frequency bands of n 1, n3, n4 1, n78 and n79. Wi-Fi supports Wi-Fi 6 technology, and has a new network integration scheme, MultiLink, which can connect 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and 5 GHz Wi-Fi at the same time, further improving the network speed.

If nothing else, as usual, let's play first. This is a zoom version of 8 256GB in our hand.

1. Ann Bunny runs.

Because we got the engineering machine, the manufacturer has not yet opened the network, so the result has not been verified by the network. According to the actual test, Redmi K30 Pro Ann Bunny scored 597,744, among which CPU and GPU scored normal and Snapdragon 865 and MEM scored outstanding, which was higher than other models equipped with UFS 3.0 flash memory. Compared with other Snapdragon 865 models, the sub-item is located in UX, which is mainly because the high refresh rate is not adopted.

2. Storage test

After testing, K30 Pro scored 609,265,438+0 in the storage test, in which the sequential reading speed exceeded 65,438+0,700 MB/s; The write sequence reaches 760MB/s, even higher than NEX 3S, which also claims to use UFS 3. 1 flash memory.

Verb charging and battery life

The Redmi K30 Pro is equipped with a 4700mAh battery. Due to the addition of 5G baseband, the battery

In terms of charging, K30 Pro comes standard with 33W fast charging. Although this power is not high at present, the official said that the charge pump is used for efficient charging, and the conversion rate is as high as 97%. Before it's too late, let's look at the paper. Open the SIM card to charge, connect Wi-Fi, and record every 10 minute.

After practical test, it takes 65 minutes to charge the machine from 5% to 100%, of which 43% is charged in the first 20 minutes.

To tell the truth, the charging speed of K30 Pro is excellent, which can almost catch up with the 44W fast charging speed of NEX 3S.

According to the official introduction, K30 Pro has applied a brand-new Mi-FC fast charging technology to monitor the battery cell voltage in real time during the charging process. On the premise of ensuring safety, the charging power of each node in the charging process is dynamically fine-tuned to increase the duration of high-power charging, thus shortening the overall charging time.

Abstract of intransitive verbs

Before talking about K30 Pro, let's get a general idea of how long it takes to polish a flagship mobile phone. From project establishment to research and development; Testing, assembly, inspection, final product and shipment. Although domestic mobile phones have a mature solution, it still takes at least one year to polish a flagship, because the competition between flagship mobile phones focuses on completion, not short time.

The most important point of Redmi K30 Pro lies in the above problems. Although there are some highlights of Xiaomi 10 series for reference, the release time of the new machine is still too short, which leads to the omission of some key configurations, such as the expected high refresh rate of rice noodles. Although the performance of the whole K30 Pro is undeniable, because of the high refresh rate, I don't need to use it for users, but the reason why you can use it is still in line with the concept that users don't need it now.

Therefore, the author believes that it is not enough for Redmi to launch K series only, and it is too late. It needs to launch a brand-new flagship series to form a balance with K series, so as to leave polishing time for the next flagship, such as Xiaomi digital series and MIX series, Huawei P series and Mate series. They have set aside nearly a year to polish the next flagship mobile phone. Even if something goes wrong with the flagship in the first half of the year, the flagship in the second half of the year can make up for its reputation in time.

Back to K30 Pro, the machine adopts lifting front design, and the proportion of front screen is increased. The rear circular Oreo four-shot is the mainstream mobile phone layout at present, plus Snapdragon 865 and UFS 3. 1 flash memory, which definitely belongs to the first echelon of Android camp in terms of performance.

Moreover, charging and taking photos are also the mainstream standards at present, and it has the characteristics of multifunctional NFC, infrared remote control, linear motor and so on. However, K30 Pro is not without wireless charging, dual speakers and IP68 waterproof. But in the face of the price from 2999 yuan, these shortcomings can be completely ignored. After all, no one will have a problem with money.

Finally, talk about Redmi's future. We all know that Xiaomi has got rid of price restrictions and turned to high-end development. The burden of this price limit naturally falls on the Redmi brand. Whether the concept of cost performance can achieve the ultimate directly determines how far Redmi can go. Similarly, when Redmi # 039' s flagship sales reached one million, this was Xiaomi's real idea. At this time, Lei Jun's dual-brand strategy in the United States will achieve the final victory.
