Redmi K30 Pro Screen Will Be A Compromise
/The Cheapest Snapdragon 865…
The Redmi K30 Pro is set release quite soon and a lot of people are wondering about the type of display the Redmi K30 Pro will have. The Redmi K20 Pro was a huge a success for Xiaomi Redmi. Redmi is trying to build on the success of the Redmi K20 Pro and with the release of the Redmi K30 Pro Redmi is hoping to build on that success. Part of the success of the Redmi K20 Pro was the notch free display. The Redmi K30 Pro is expected to build on the all screen display of the Redmi K20 Pro and we are expecting the Redmi K30 Pro to build on that success. But how could Redmi give the Redmi K30 Pro a high refresh rate display when the their flagship device, the Xiaomi Mi 10 and Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, already has a 90hz Amoled display? If you don’t think screens are important, see how we ranked them in our Smartphones of 2019 article HERE
Components And Cost…
To expect that the Redmi K30 Pro will be the cheapest Snapdragon 865 device and it will ship with high refresh rate amoled display is absolutely ludicrous. The Redmi K30 Pro has one purpose and one purpose only, Redmi wants the Redmi K30 Pro to be the cheapest device on the market with a flagship tier processor. The Redmi K30 Pro is set to have more than just a flagship SOC. It has also been confirmed that the Redmi K30 Pro will feature UFS 3.1 storage. This means that the storage of the Redmi K30 Pro will in fact be faster than the storage on the flagship Xiaomi device, The Xiaomi Mi 10.
A Compromise We Can All Agree On
An option seemingly unspoken of by most tech outlets about the Redmi K30 Pro is the fact that we could see the Redmi K30 Pro come with a high response screen, at a normal 60hz refresh rate. What would this mean for the Redmi K30 Pro from a user experience standpoint? A lot actually. Touch input rate is generally tied directly to screen response rate but Xiaomi has implemented significantly higher touch response rate digitizers on a variety of devices including the Blackshark 3. The faster touch input allows the device to register your finger movement before it asks the GPU to create the screen. This means that the touch input and user experience on the Redmi K30 Pro in some ways could still be at flagship level, without incurring the extra cost of a high refresh amoled display. This would allow the Redmi K30 Pro to retain the title of the cheapest Snapdragon 865 device while also giving the Redmi K30 Pro a unique experience. This would be welcomed since devices like the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 come with a curved AMOLED display
