Design

The Redmi K50 is the handset of the trio with the best build quality. It is the only one equipped with a glass back and a front glass protected by Gorilla Glass Victus, and it is even the only one to sport the IP53 certification making it dust resistant and splash resistant. The OnePlus 10R is the one with the most original design, while the Realme GT Neo3 is the most sportive and gaming-centric one in terms of aesthetics, but the OnePlus and Realme flagship killers are made of plastic and do not provide the users with any certification against dust and water.

 

Display

The Redmi K50 features the most impressive display, at least on the paper. It has a higher Quad HD+ resolution with 1440 x 3200 pixels, it comes with the Dolby Vision support, and it is able to provide a higher level of detail. The Redmi K50 has an OLED panel with a 6.67-inch diagonal, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The OnePlus 10R and the Realme GT Neo3 come with the same display sporting a lower Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and no Dolby Vision, but they are able to show up to one billion colors. Further, note that the OnePlus and Realme handsets, come with an in-display fingerprint reader, while the Xiaomi one has a side-mounted biometric sensor, placed on the power key.

 

Specs & Software

The hardware departments of these two devices are the same: they are powered by the Dimensity 8100 mobile platform by Mediatek, built at 5 nm and running at a max frequency of 2.85 GHz. The chipset is paired with up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. They run Android 12 out of the box but are customized by different user interfaces: the Redmi K50 comes with MIUI 13, the OnePlus 10R has OxygenOS 12, and the Realme GT Neo3 has Realme UI 3.0.

 

Camera

The camera setups of the Realme GT Neo3 and the OnePlus 10R are exactly the same and they are superior if compared to the one found on the Redmi K50. They sport a 50 MP main camera (a Sony IMX766 sensor with OIS), an 8 MP ultrawide lens, a 2 MP macro camera, and a 16 MP selfie snapper. With the Redmi K50, you get a 48 MP main camera with OIS, an 8 MP ultrawide sensor, a 2 MP macro lens, and a 20 MP selfie shooter.

 

Battery

The Redmi K50 provides a longer battery life thanks to a bigger 5500 mAh battery, while Realme GT Neo3 and OnePlus 10R feature faster charging with a power of up to 150W.

 

Price

Redmi K50 is expected to hit India with a €350/$369 price tag, Realme GT Neo3 begins at $478/€454, and the OnePlus 10R costs €480/$505 in its base variant. While the OnePlus 10R and the Realme GT Neo3 feature better cameras and faster charging, the Redmi K50 has a bigger battery: which one would you pick?
